It’s your health, your business, your life.

There’s a better way to work and take care of yourself

Hi, I’m Amanda, your OG Health First Freelancer!

When you have a chronic illness, it often feels like you have to make a choice: work and make money but sacrifice your health, or take care of yourself but stay broke forever. But as a Health First Freelancer, you can have it all.

I built a six-figure business as a freelance copywriter while managing (and healing!) chronic Lyme disease and ulcerative colitis. I feel better than I ever have, my business is thriving, and I work 20-25 hours a week.

I’m here to share the strategies, tools, and lessons learned from my journey so that you can start down your own path to become a Health First Freelancer. If I can do it, so can you!

What is the Health First philosophy?

Change your mindset, change your life.

Health first, always

Your health is the key to unlocking every other good thing in your life and therefore must be your #1 priority. Amazing things start happening when you make this shift.

Less hustle, more success

You don’t have to hustle and grind 24/7 to build a successful business. Small, consistent actions are the key to both health and business.

Part-time hours, full-time income

By working to your energy levels and cutting out fluffy tasks, you can make a full-time income in half the time or less.

“As a business owner and a mom, I need those reminders to stop and actually take care of myself every once in a while. Amanda’s newsletter is great for giving me just the right amount of info when I need it. It’s easy to implement her suggestions. And it’s nice to know that I’m not alone in my struggles.”

“Amanda is an incredible mentor. Only people with chronic health issues can really understand how difficult it is to live and work on a day to day basis while managing symptoms. Amanda has been supportive and empathetic in a way that others (especially my doctors!) have not - all while empowering me with the tools, tactics, and mindset to start my own journey as a freelancer.”

“Amanda and her dedication to prioritizing your health above everything else has truly changed my life. I was living with a chronic condition for years, yoyo-ing and spiraling, trying everything except putting my health first, and it nearly took me out. If it weren’t for me seeing Amanda’s consistency and dedication to the Health-First lifestyle every day for years, I don’t know where I’d be. She has not only inspired me to prioritize my health, but she’s encouraged me every single step of the way, and that has made all the difference. Now that she has this community, all of that is amplified, and I’m loving being a part of it and watching everyone grow!”
