In this Humaning Well reflection, Amber Krzys explores the subtle ways we mistake our identities—success, goodness, strength—as who we truly are, and how this misunderstanding creates suffering. Through her new video masterclass, An Exploration of Identity, she invites us to look beyond the roles we play and reconnect with the deeper intelligence that lives beneath them. This inquiry opens the possibility of real freedom—not by becoming more, but by remembering who we already are. Read more now...

When pain goes unmet, it doesn’t disappear—it hides in the shadows and drives our behavior from beneath the surface. In this reflection on Trump’s recent comments about an “invasion from within,” Amber Krzys explores how unhealed pain can manifest as control, anger, and blame—both individually and collectively—and how true leadership begins when we turn inward to meet our own upset with compassion.

You’ll see how quickly the mind piles on stories that escalate suffering—and how softening the nervous system can reveal what’s really underneath.

So much of what we fear isn’t real — it’s imagined. Our minds spin stories about the future, and we react to those stories as if they’re true. That’s why anxiety and old habits can feel so inescapable. In this free live webinar, psychologist and author Dr. Amy Johnson will explore the difference between imagination and reality, why our minds do what they do, and how freedom becomes possible when we see through the mind’s stories.

I also introduce Holly Perkins, a women’s strength expert whose free 3-day workshop, Midlife Muscle Mastery, offers powerful tools to help women build strength, balance hormones, and transform their health in a sustainable way.

So much of our inner suffering stems from the belief that “there” is better than here.

Most people want to live from love—but without realizing it, fear often runs the show. It hides in urgency, productivity, and even “self-care,” quietly steering our actions and decisions.

If you’re craving a deeper sense of clarity, grounding, and trust in yourself, this piece is for you. Read more now...

We’re living in a world that’s confused success with safety and intellect with truth—and it’s left many of us aching. This piece explores how that confusion comes from identifying with the separate self, the part of us that was shaped by fear and conditioning. And it offers a different way forward—one that doesn’t come from fixing the world “out there,” but from returning to what’s real in here. The more we come home to the wisdom of our hearts, the more we shift the collective. This is how we begin to heal. Together. Read more now...

In this piece, Amber shares a personal moment of feeling unexpectedly low during an otherwise beautiful walk, and how her mind’s instinct to “fix” the feeling only amplified her discomfort. Through slowing down and getting curious, she uncovers a deeper truth: that the body is fully capable of processing emotion when we allow it, without needing to label or change it. This reflection invites readers to explore what happens when they meet their sensations as they are—without judgment, without story—and discover a deeper sense of safety and presence within themselves.

In this article, I share a powerful reframe around emotional discomfort—what if feeling low wasn’t a sign that something’s wrong, but a sign your system is working for you? Just like a sore throat signals healing in the body, our emotions can be signals of restoration in motion. When we stop trying to fix how we feel and instead allow space for what’s present, we reconnect with our natural resilience—and the deeper Intelligence always guiding us home. Read more now...

In this deeply personal reflection, I share how a painful misunderstanding shaped my relationship with someone I deeply respected—and how I unknowingly made her the villain in my story. Through the process of meeting buried pain, I came to see that the resentment I carried wasn’t about her at all, but about what I hadn’t yet faced in myself. This piece explores how our projections work, why the ego loves being the “good one,” and how the people we resist most may actually be holding sacred roles in our healing. Read more now...

In a world that rewards constant doing, microdosing space offers a radical alternative. Instead of waiting for burnout to rest, what if we built tiny moments of stillness into our daily lives? This article explores how small doses of presence—pausing to breathe, to notice, to reconnect—can regulate the nervous system, unlock creativity, and bring us back to what we’re truly longing for: this moment, right here, right now.

Ever found yourself wide awake at 3 AM, gripped by anxiety and second-guessing everything? Middle of the night mind is real—fueled by the brain’s fear center, it makes small concerns feel urgent and overwhelming. In this article, I share my own 3 AM vulnerability hangover, how I’ve learned to recognize when not to trust my thinking, and the practice of shifting from fear-based reactions to love-based responses. The more we attune to presence, the easier it becomes to see through the “monster filter” of fear and return to alignment—often resulting in peace. Read more now...

For years, I believed the key to health was less food, more exercise, and a success barometer based on the scale. But when my body started signaling distress through migraines, worsening period symptoms, and eventually a thyroid nodule, I had to reconsider everything I thought I knew. My healing journey led me to a radically different approach—one centered on nourishment, metabolism, and strength. Along the way, my friend and women’s health expert, Holly Perkins, reinforced what I was discovering: true well-being isn’t about deprivation, but about fueling and supporting the body in a way that actually works. In this piece, I share my journey and invite you to explore Holly’s free 3-day program, Mastering Your Body Composition, to help you redefine health on your own terms. Read more now...
