About Amanda
Hi, I'm Amanda.
Dating strategist for ambitious women, host of The Playbook podcast and former nationally syndicated radio host.
After 10 years of coaching and 1,200+ women coached, I teach ambitious women how to choose a healthy man who is ready to commit in 5 dates or less.
Work with meMy story
It started with a divorce.
At 34, my husband left me with three children: a 4-year-old, a 19-month-old and an 8-week-old baby. I'd been a stay-at-home mom with no financial independence.
I remember standing in an empty house with three kids and a broken heart, and realizing something: no one was coming to save me.
So I made a decision. If I was going to rebuild my life, I wasn't going to do it from pain. I was going to do it from power.
Starting over
I reinvented my life. Love was another story.
I became a nationally syndicated radio host. But I was failing at love. I even had a broken engagement, because I was choosing men by their resume, not by the kind of relationship I wanted.
Healing is one thing. Dating after healing is a whole new level. I had to learn how to date differently, without anxiety, fear or overgiving.
So I studied trauma recovery, attachment theory, communication and human behavior. And I tested everything on myself first.
The turning point
So I changed my strategy.
In 2020 I met my husband, Sean, on Hinge. Today we have a blended family of seven, and we're happily building a life together.
What started as survival turned into a method. I started teaching it to other women, and it worked for them too.
Women who hadn't dated in years were going on confident first dates. Women who thought all men were emotionally unavailable found partners who called, planned, pursued and committed.
Why I teach this
Love isn't luck. It's a playbook.
Ambitious women are incredible at what they do: building careers, raising families, creating financial freedom. But when it comes to love, they're told to rely on hope and chemistry, or what I call PNP: posting and praying on the apps.
Here's the truth. The best woman doesn't always win. The most aligned woman does: the one who knows how to recognize, attract and keep a healthy man who is ready to commit.
That's why I built The Playbook. It's the exact plays I used to rebuild my love life, and it has helped 1,200+ women stop guessing and start choosing well.
xo, Amanda

She stopped hoping. She started choosing.
Married in 6 months
Tatyana was unsure if dating after divorce was possible. She was convinced that staying single until her kids were grown was her only option, until she found Amanda and realized she deserves love, and her kids deserve to see her model a healthy relationship. Now she's married to a man who is ALL IN with her kids.

Committed partner in 5 weeks
Lisa had tried everything. She hired a matchmaker who brought poor matches and outdated advice: that she had to "play small" as an ambitious woman to get a partner. After meeting Amanda, she stopped dimming her success, ran the plays and found her partner in 5 weeks.
