Hi, I’m Amanda. I’m a mom, a believer, and someone who has spent years caring for everyone else while quietly running on empty. As I continue to walk through chronic illness, burnout, and spiritual dryness, I felt God gently calling me to rest-and to create space for others to do the same. I have a very difficult time resting but with community, and space, we can rest together. Brave Rest is that space. I’m so honored you’re here.

The face behind Brave Rest is also tired, overstimulated, and ready for some balance. Many mothers are tired in ways they can’t always name. We love deeply, care endlessly, and show up day after day-but somewhere along the way, we lose touch with the parts of ourselves that still long for rest, connection, beauty, and breath.

At Brave Rest, Amanda creates peaceful, soul-nourishing spaces for moms to pause, be present, and be poured into-without having to do anything for anyone else. Through weekend retreats and soon to be Moms Day Out gatherings, we offer rhythms of rest rooted in beauty, community, and grace.

We believe:

• Rest is holy, not selfish

• Connection heals isolation

• Beauty matters for the soul

• You don’t have to do it all the time

Whether you’re joining us for a few hours or a full weekend, Brave Rest offers more than an event-it’s a soft-landing place for brave women to simply be.
