Welcome to Contradiction Queen!
I’m Amanda Bryant, a Modern Day Medicine Woman who is on a mission to revolutionize the way people live with chronic conditions. My own journey with POTS, NCS, and EDS has taught me that true vitality doesn’t come from fighting your body - it comes from honoring it. I’ve walked the struggle, persevered through chaos, and discovered that what looks like limitation can actually be initiation.
Nothing is wrong with you. You can reclaim your sovereignty and create your own way of living vibrantly, committing to life with full devotion. Together we create a culture of rebels who no longer bow to outdated systems and instead rise into revolution, rebirth, and radiant leadership. We don’t just survive with POTS - we thrive, intoxicated by the richness of life itself.
If you’ve ever felt misunderstood, broken, or told to play small this rebellion is your initiation into power, freedom, vitality, and joy.
Tenets of My Medicine
Nothing is Wrong with You
Your body is not the enemy. It is wise, wild, awake. Every desire, every symptom, every whisper is wisdom - guidance calling you deeper into yourself.
Your body is operating exactly as it should, in perfect alignment with all that is. You are always on the right path, always in alignment with who you are in this moment. Trust.
Life is full of contradictions. Embracing them is how we discover and embody more of our fullness - fierce and tender, devoted and rebellious, human and divine.
This is where rebellion begins. Reverence. Believing your body is right and honoring its wisdom. Writing your own rules. Living from the deepest place of integrity and trust within yourself.
Sovereignty isn’t something you find - it’s something you live.
Practice, Pleasure, and Play
Life is a practice. Every day, every choice, every breath is part of the art of living. Conscious commitment to that practice grounds us, steadies us, and connects us to what matters most.
Pleasure is not frivolous - it’s your birthright. It’s necessary. Pleasure opens every cell of your being and allows you to taste the beauty of life, even in the ordinary.
Play is innocence. It reminds us that even in the mess, even in the contradictions, life can be light. We are meant to learn not only through challenge, but also through curiosity, playfulness, and joy.
I know what it’s like to live with chronic conditions while also claiming deep pleasure and play in my body. That’s the paradox AND the magic.
When we weave practice, pleasure, and play together, we create rhythms that nurture us, touch our sensuality, and open a path for growth and change.
This is not bypassing reality - it’s living it more fully. It’s weaving the sacred into the day-to-day.
This is rebellion: to enjoy your body, your life, and your becoming, even when the world says you shouldn’t.
Because embodiment isn’t just survival - it’s devotion. And practice, pleasure, and play are how we remember the divine within our human skin.
Everything is Guidance
We are in constant co-creation with Spirit, God, Goddess, and the Universe.
If you don’t like something, respond differently. If you do, enjoy it and keep going.
Every experience, every sensation, every symptom... it’s all guidance.
Use the feedback to create the life you want.
You are infinitely powerful.
Trust exactly where you are, and view everything on your path as a purposeful teacher.
Trust your path. See everything as guidance. There are no mistakes.
When you do this, life becomes a beautiful co-creation - where rebellion is choosing to participate fully, and sovereignty is remembering that you were always the co-creator.
Nature Makes No Mistakes
You are not a mistake.
Your dis-ease is not a mistake.
Everything is intelligently orchestrated for your highest good. Everything is exactly as it should be.
What would shift if you believed this?
Would you still live in fear?
Would you surrender?
Would it deepen your devotion to life itself?
Would you begin to ask life what it is showing you?
Where it is guiding you?
What would happen if you trusted completely?
Nature always responds to what is, innovating in ways that serve the highest good of all.
Even death has its purpose.
There is Power in Journeying Within
Life will bring us to thresholds - moments of darkness, fear, and uncertainty. Especially when living with a chronic condition, there are times when the body whispers… or screams… and the only way forward is inward.
Journeying within is rebellion.
It is choosing to turn toward your body instead of away from it. It is asking: What are you showing me? What do you need? Where are you guiding me next?
This is how we discover the parts of ourselves that have been waiting for our attention—parts that are ready to be witnessed, embraced, and transformed.
I know this because I’ve lived it. In my near-death experience, my body stopped - and I was asked by Spirit if I wanted to return. The choice was mine. But to live, I had to agree to change. To honor my body’s wisdom, to listen deeply, and to align with my soul’s truth.
This is the power of the journey within:
It returns us to ourselves.
It shows us what is ready to shift.
It reconnects us to our vitality, our sovereignty, and our life force.
Even the parts of you that feel rebellious, broken, or lost - they have a cause. And when you journey within, you discover that every part of you has always been guiding you home.
