Welcome to your next level of Aligned Activation
Hi there, I’m Amanda Greaves…
… a transformational alignment coach, empowerment speaker, published author, award-winning interior designer and high achieving entrepreneur.
Success doesn’t start with strategy—it starts with self.
High achievers don’t usually slow down long enough to ask the deeper questions—until something forces you to. The pressure to perform, lead, and deliver results can create a quiet disconnect between what you do and who you really are.
You’re smart. Driven. Capable.
But you are also tired, stretched thin, and wondering why success doesn’t feel the way you envisioned it to.
That’s where I come in.
I empower ambitious leaders (like you!), entrepreneurs, and teams to realign with who you truly are—so you can reconnect with your core values, rediscover your vision, and lead with clarity, confidence, and integrity. Together, we break free from the patterns that keep you stuck and align with what matters most—so you can redesign your life and leadership from the inside out.
My mission is to help you quiet the noise, get you to trust your inner truth, and build your life and business(es) that are not just successful—but sustainable, meaningful, and truly yours to the core.
From Surface Success to Soulful Shift
The real story on how I got from there … to here.
I decided to become an interior designer when I was 17—and I followed that dream all the way to the top. I built a thriving firm, led an incredible team, and created designs that won awards and transformed the lives within them.
But after losing one of my biggest clients caused me to shut down a division of my company – only days after I had finally crawled out of an emotionally abusive relationship … overwhelm and burnout crept in. I had all of the outward success, but a gigantic internal void. I was disconnected from my work and more importantly—myself. That is when I started hearing the questionable calling that I couldn’t ignore:
“Is this really it?”
And when the even bigger calling of → “Do I stay, or Do I go?” kept tugging at my heart strings—I knew it was time to make a change.
I stepped back, took inventory on what was really happening, pivoted and answered the call to work on the most important ‘space and life’ redesign ever—my own.
What followed was a journey of emotional healing, spiritual connection, identity shifts, and mindset awareness (which was all looong overdue) that I pushed and pulled myself through as I intentionally dug in and did the deep work to uncover my own soulful truth—from the inside out. My sudden pivot away from overwhelm became a direct pathway towards tough lessons in self-discovery – but as I followed this calling of realignment, I was liberated from my own clutches of self-doubt and limiting beliefs and recalibrated my internal compass with confidence. The inspirational clarity to serve others on a more soulful level confirmed my purpose, defined my mission, and empowered me to start again.
I am now solidly set on a course of using everything I have learned—personally and professionally—to help other high-achieving leaders break unhealthy patterns, reconnect with themselves, and design lives of heartfelt meaning, impact, and real alignment.
Because when you reconnect with who you are, you don’t just change how you live,
you change how you lead.
Personal and professional transformation is a significant act that takes courage, compassion, patience and persistence.
Who is Amanda, really?
Creatively Compassionate COACH
In a world full of advice and overwhelm, my approach is sincere, straight-forward, and genuine. I get right into the work with my clients, and delicately (yet intentionally) hold the space for each evolution, as if it were my own. (Because I’ve been there, and I know how important that space really is…)
Clients come to me feeling stretched thin, stuck in old patterns, or unsure of their next move — and they leave with a renewed sense of purpose, stronger boundaries, and a personalized blueprint for the life and leadership they actually want.
Through deep listening, thoughtful questioning, and proven strategies rooted in emotional intelligence, leadership psychology, and aligned action, I help high-performers break through what’s holding them back and move forward with confidence, clarity, and connection — in business and in life.
This is more than coaching. It’s a recalibration of who you are and how you lead—from the inside out.
Transformational Alignment SPEAKER
My focus isn’t just about delivering a message — it’s about creating an experience that connects, empowers, and transforms.
With keen insights, powerful storytelling, and science-backed methods, my transformational keynotes blend strategy, soul, and self-awareness—guiding audiences to pause, reflect, and realign.
I have a unique gift of meeting people where they are—and moving them forward with magnetic energy (and witty personality)—which consistently sparks meaningful change in the lives of my audiences and clients.
Whether I’m guiding 10 clients on an intimate retreat or energizing rooms of 1,000’s of professionals, my talks leave people feeling seen, understood, and equipped with actionable tools they can immediately apply — in how they lead, communicate, and live.
The result? Audiences shift from overwhelm and disconnection to alignment with what truly matters—walking away with the clarity, confidence, and courage to take their next bold step forward.

The more Personal stuff…

Enthusiastic Outdoors Type
I love to hike and take ridiculously long walks with my dog, Artie. Pilates and high intensity work-outs keep me balanced. And when there is snow, showshoes are the way to travel… In the sumnmer I can be found paddle boarding, hanging at the beach, boating with friends, or spending a day in the woods exploring. And all of this wouldn’t be complete with a set of golf clubs in the trunk, just in case I pass by a driving range or make time to sink a few putts.

Creative Chef
I love to cook, and my friends would agree that I’m damn good at it. However, I don’t follow recipes very well and lean more towards using my creative license whenever I’m in the kitchen.

Motivated Traveler
Traveling is something I have been intrigued by for most of my life. Varying cultures, landscapes, people, places, and possibilities – If the chance to travel comes up, I will do whatever it takes to make it happen.

I am actually pretty Funny 🤪
Laughing is one of my favorite things to do and believe it is one of the healthiest habits we can cultivate. When I am in my best frame of mind the goofy side of me comes out… Comedy is also one of my favorite outlets…
A look back at all the things that made me “me”!
I was born on leap day: February 29th…
Fun Fact: I was 10 years old at the same time as my now 19-year-old niece, and couple years later I was also, still 10 years old with her her younger brother who is now 18

I grew up on the North Shore of Massachusetts
With the seasons as our clock, and the ocean as our playground, summertime boating with my parents and brother has been a part of my family’s lives for generations. No matter where I wander to – the ocean and warm weather are always where my heart feels at home.

Soccer was my sanity space in college…
As a college athlete I found the structure and the schedule helped to keep my head in the books, and my feet on the ground.

Wanderlust ran through my veins starting at a very young age
I absolutely love, love LOVE to travel and have explored 18 countries, lived on three continents, and called 16 different cities or towns home. My 6 week backpacking trip in college was just the beginning of my ‘world tour’

My first professional love was with Interior Design …
… I got my Bachelors in the field, and worked in the design and construction industries for over 20 years. Started as a hobby > turned into a passion > created a career > now back to a passionate hobby!

Whenever I get the chance – you will find me on the open road….
I absolutely love the freedom that a motorcycle ride can bring into my soul. There is nothing like the beauty of connecting with the energy of the bike, and the unlimited destinations that await.

I jumped on the Tony Robbins train in 2018… (…and still haven’t jumped off.)
I’ve been to 6 in-person and 9 live virtual Tony Robbins events and know that my life has changed dramatically for the better because of what I’ve learned through his teachings. Along with many other influencers and mentors, Tony still is the base of my transformation.

Artie – the one man party…
I truly believe that Artie was sent as my personal guide towards more laughs, more fun, and more movement. His personality is that of a wild and sassy human – but with a heart and soul of an angel. Named after my grandfather, Arthur MacLennan – Artie Mac keeps the party going..

2022 was my turning point
After career burnout and the blow-up of a toxic relationship, I shifted my perspective, my thinking, and my purpose. With intentional introspective self-healing and a passion to understand the possibility and value of unconditional love, I set myself on a path of transformation and self-discovery.

The Chameleon Diaries: Designing A Life Worth Changing For
The Chameleon Diaries was published in February 2024… What started as a combination of storytelling and life lessons quickly turned into a cathartic expression of vulnerability and truth-seeking that I am proud to share as my first book.
