Amanda Campbell

I help individuals overcome stress and burnout, uncovering blind spots to achieve their personal and professional goals.

As a coach, kinesiologist, author and keynote speaker, I help individuals overcome a limiting mindset that is a barrier to achieving their fullest potential.

I provide the tools and guidance to cultivate resilience, flexibility, and inner strength. It is my passion to help individuals to re-imagine possibility in their minds, bodies and lives. 

My mission is to empower you to bend, adapt, and thrive in the face of life's challenges, just like bamboo.

Whether you're navigating career transitions, change at work, or striving for greater balance and well-being, I am here to support you at every step.


After my own diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis at age 24 and overcoming a left-hand side body paralysis at age 29, I discovered that stress impacts our ability to repair and heal.

Helping others now I discovered that a flexible mindset impacts everything that matters: our body’s ability to repair, our ability to adapt and perform. 

Drawing from my roles as a CEO, practitioner and intuitive coach, I offer a unique perspective rooted in personal experience.

My approach blends practical strategies with compassionate support, empowering you and your team towards lasting positive change with the art of bending like bamboo.

Amanda’s story.

15 years ago I was paralysed in a wheelchair from an attack of Multiple Sclerosis.

Simple tasks like washing or feeding myself became the most difficult tasks of my day, I was told I may never walk again.

Taking a balanced approach, I discovered how to transform my mind, body and life.

This led to a career in well-being and performance.

I have now dedicated my life to helping other people to re-imagine what is possible.

How do I achieve this?
I help individuals to Bend Like Bamboo.

To bend, but never break, in the winds of life's challenges, emerging stronger, more resilient, and more adaptable than ever before.


I opened my private practice Bend Like Bamboo in 2014 helping individuals to reduce stress and symptoms from Autoimmune Diseases.

A year later I co-founded Nourissh, which received funding from VinoMofo with a focus on nutrition. 

As a proud MS Ambassador, I have built a career speaking about resilience, and promoting wellbeing and potential.

“Flexibility in our mindset impacts everything that matters:

  • Our bodies ability to repair

  • How happy and resilient we are

  • How connected we feel

  • Our ability to rise above our challenges”

    Founder, Amanda Campbell.

I believe that flexibility builds resilience, and building resilience in our mindset improves our health, relationships, and lives.

My story.

At the age of 24, Amanda Campbell was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). A debilitating incurable disease that renders its sufferers prone to paralysis, nerve damage, and in some cases blindness.

Paralysed down the entire left-hand side of her body, unable to move, eat, or walk Amanda was given only a 50% chance of ever walking again. With no choice but to succeed, Amanda channelled her energy into a positive force. With a mountain of determination, the aid of eastern and western medicines, Amanda astounded everyone by not only walking unaided, but running again.

Since her recovery, bringing together informed thinking from the fields of neuroscience, positive psychology, and nutrition to create a portfolio of products and services that promote healing, health and inspiration through mindfulness and grounded thinking.
