Hello, I'm Amanda Stokes
I understand firsthand the isolating and overwhelming pain of profound loss and deep personal struggle. After experiencing the unexpected death of my fiancé to overdose, I embarked on a healing journey that ultimately led me to write. It took me two and a half years, but through sharing my own raw and honest experience, I found a way to not only heal but to support others.
My first book, "Healing Hearts: Overcoming Grief After the Loss of a Loved One to Overdose", is a testament to finding your way through the unimaginable, exploring the stages of grief and the unique complications that come with this specific loss. And with my upcoming guide, "Wounded to Warrior: The No BS Guide to Trauma Recovery", I continue to provide direct, empathetic tools for healing, forged from the resilience of my own journey. My biggest wish is for you to know you're not alone, and that true, unvarnished healing, though complex, is always possible.
