A COMPLIMENTARY WORKSHOP

This Shouldn’t Be Like This:

An Evening of Real-Time Self-Inquiry

Meet the story that keeps you suffering—and find freedom together. 

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, This shouldn’t be happening—about your health, your work, the news, or even someone else’s behavior?

It’s such a human response. The mind jumps in with its verdict: Wrong. Bad. Fix it. In that instant, the body tenses, the nervous system fires up, and life becomes something to battle, escape, or shut down around.

I recently shared a mini-masterclass about this very thing—using a story about waking up with intense neck pain. (You’ll get that video when you register.) In it, I talk about how the judgment this shouldn’t be like this quietly fuels our suffering—and how, when we soften and meet what’s really here, we see more clearly, breathe more deeply, and come into greater alignment within.

In this 90-minute live workshop, we’ll explore this misunderstanding together. We’ll slow down with an area where this story is active in your life, notice the layers beneath the judgment, drop into inquiry, and open space for fresh insight.

My intention is that you leave feeling more connected to what’s real—perhaps lighter, clearer, and more grounded—even if nothing “out there” has changed.

What You Can Expect

  • A guided self-inquiry process so you can work with what’s showing up in real time.

  • Practices to soften the mind’s grip and ease the body’s bracing response.

  • Space to witness fresh insights, dissolve old stories, and build inner safety.

  • Group connection and open coaching—seeing how deeply human we all are, and embracing the messiness that comes with this journey.

  • A deeper connection to your own wisdom—seeing how the intelligence of life is with you, guiding you, even in the moments that feel hardest.

This isn’t about pretending to like what you don’t or forcing yourself into positivity. It’s about discovering the freedom available in meeting life as it is.

Testimonials

  • Effie Brown

    ceo gamechanger films

    “I am unapologetically ambitious. I love the fight because I know how to fight, and I’m grateful for these behaviors because they got me to where I am. I also knew something wasn’t right. I was mentally and spiritually exhausted. Through working with Amber, she helped me recognize that these behaviors have served their purpose but will not get me where I am supposed to go. I needed help to identify, receive and implement grace into my life. This is the crux of the work that we do. These sessions are sometimes confronting in the best possible way. Amber creates a safe space for me to freak out, cry, and grieve but ultimately let these labels and behaviors go. Through working with Amber, I see that they don’t serve me anymore and new tools and practices are needed. Each session with Amber I come away feeling supported with new insights and tools to step into the next phase of my career and life.”

  • Elizabeth Pan

    Actress

    "I have been an actor for years but never really felt like I owned it. Working with Amber was my last ditch effort to resolve why my career felt so torturous to me. Turns out the issue had nothing to do with my career but more to do with my own feelings of being “enough”. Just the simple act of investing in this experience cleared a lot of my blockages, but definitely the many tools Amber introduced allowed me to own my innate “enoughness”. And it has permeated to every part of my life: in social situations, in dating situations and definitely in my career. The proof is in the pudding: I ended up booking and working more then I ever have while in this program. I thought, That happens to other people, not me. Well, I am proof that it did! Working with Amber is transformational—the best thing I could have done for myself."

  • Mike Kramer

    composer

    "I’ve finally been able to establish a solid routine in my life, including things like daily meditation to keep focused and centered. In my career as a creative person, I feel more confident than ever in expressing my authentic voice. I can clearly hear the change in the music I write these days. Probably the most profound changes in me have happened on the inside though. I've learned how to find balance, forgive myself, express gratitude, stay curious, and be courageous in the face of my fears. I needed my entire life to change - and that’s kinda what happened.”

  • Rhielle Widders

    mama, poet and life coach

    "I experienced profound shifts in the foundation of the presence I bring to life and was mesmerized as I watched life all around me shift to realign to my new presence. The tools offered are not limited to the program or the group allowing a deepening of my self awareness, self compassion, and self confidence to continue to bloom even after the program has ended.

    The gratitude I feel for life after this program, and the joy I experience in my day-to-day are so different from before the program, that I am able to dream of my future in a radically new way. I feel honored to have been able to be a part of Amber’s inaugural group and to have been a part of this program."

    "Amber Krzys is a one of a kind human being and you will be hard pressed to find someone with her special combination of love, generosity, listening and commitment to service in the world. She has dedicated her life to making a difference and she delivers in such a fiercely loving way. I've come to know some of the people who Amber has worked with as a coach and have witnessed the results they have achieved as a result. Both the outer transformation (income, relationships, business etc.) and most importantly the inner transformation (presence, peace, spaciousness, fulfillment). Amber is a coach that you want in your corner if you're ready to uplevel your life."
