Hi! I'm Amanda Rae Cooper
Based in Los Angeles, California, I have over 15 years of experience as a Transformational Life Coach and have successfully helped and empowered hundreds of men and women transform their lives and identify and achieve their goals.
Using a variety of tools and techniques, I help clients reframe their life experiences to remove (often longstanding) blocks and make profound shifts in their beliefs and behaviors to achieve significant, lasting changes in a relatively short period of time. My primary goal is to empower clients to become the best versions of themselves in all areas of their lives.
IF I CAN DO IT, SO CAN YOU
MY STORY:
Battling feelings of inadequacy, self-doubt, perfectionism and various addictions throughout my life, I finally found the keys to increasing the quality of my life instead of destroying it. I put down my final addiction in 2007 and began an incredible journey of self-discovery and personal development that continues to evolve. My transformation occurred rapidly once I developed the skills to change my thoughts. Today my life is amazing; every day is a dream come true.
MY MISSION:
To devote as much time as possible to giving back and helping men and women achieve their goals and dreams with the tools and techniques I have learned and developed over the years. It is time for everyone to experience their best lives ever.
LIFE IS GREAT!
I have been happily married to an incredible man since 1991, and our life together just keeps getting better and better. We have a beautiful & talented daughter, who shares our time and attention with an energetic female Jack Russell Terrier.
Like I said, life is great.

Testimonials
Lisa S. -Los Angeles, California
I began working with Amanda Rae in 2018. At that time my business was failing, my relationship was at a standstill, and I had very little hope that I could change my life. 4 years later I am very happily married to that same man, I have a dream job as vice president at a fast-growing media company, and I am the happiest I’ve ever been. With Amanda's guidance I did change my life and I will always be grateful to her.
Patrick Z., Douglas, Michigan
Working with Amanda has been life changing. Her direct and caring approach is exactly what I need. It has shown me where I live in my story of lack and limitation, and I can move through barriers and go from surviving to thriving.
Shelton W. - Brentwood, Los Angeles
Amanda changed my life for the better!!! I have tears of gratitude for having the opportunity to work with Amanda--first as my mentor and now as my coach. When I first started working with Amanda, my life was a mess only I didn’t know it. My marriage was on the rocks, my career was non-existent, and I complained about everyone and everything. My life was so small. I was introduced to Amanda by a friend, who insisted I work with her.
At first, working with Amanda was not easy; I pushed back every chance I could; after all, it was everyone else’s fault, not mine! But her no-nonsense, no victim approach showed results almost instantly. I stopped fighting and began following her direction and doing the assignments she asked me to complete. I cleared out age-old resentments, limited beliefs, and behaviors that were holding me back from the life I wanted. I learned new ways and tools to deal with relationships, leadership issues and success.
Today, I have an amazing life and it keeps getting better! My husband and I celebrated 10 years of marriage, and we are the happiest we have ever been. He is an amazing husband and father to our two fabulous boys. My career skyrocketed and I am now the top agent in Los Angeles with a team of 10. I send everyone I know to Amanda because if you want to get right with yourself and flourish quickly, well she is the answer! If you want to grow and thrive, you need Amanda!
Katherine P. -Santa Barbara, California
I was quite hesitant to hire a coach, but after many suggestions from a mutual friend, I finally reached out to Amanda for coaching, and I am forever grateful! I had severe chronic pain that an M.D. had diagnosed as being 100% from my thoughts and stored emotions. I was lost, angry and broke. I honestly didn’t know what I was going to do anymore. I didn’t see how working with Amanda would help my situation, but against my will, I made the best decision of my life and contacted her!
I followed her program, did what she said, and now I can happily say I have no more chronic pain; I’m free from anger and any lingering stressful thoughts; I am making more money than I ever dreamed I could; and I’m in the best, most loving romantic relationship with an incredible man who treats me amazing!
Amanda is amazing! Her approach is simple, clear and direct. It is not just a coaching -- it is a completely new way of life that is so freeing and peaceful. I can’t recommend Amanda enough! She is a wonderful gift to the world, she walks her talk, and anyone who gets to work with her is beyond lucky!
Roz B. -Los Angeles, California
Working with Amanda is life changing. She helped me see the world and myself more clearly. Through my work with her, my relationships, career, finances, and my self-confidence all drastically improved. I learned invaluable tools to get out of my own way and so I could build and enjoy a big and beautiful life.
Debra P. -Venice, California
Every once in a while, you come across someone extraordinary in your life. Amanda is one of those people. She is gifted, insightful, helpful, a clear thinker, wise, and lives her life according to what she teaches. I have witnessed incredible changes in not only my life but in all the people I know she has worked with. She will move you off of that stuck place, move you forward and into a life that you have always wanted but only imagined. If you are one of those lucky people fortunate enough to be able to work with Amanda, seize that opportunity. It doesn’t come about too often.
Lindsay L. -Culver City, California
When I met Amanda ten years ago, I was in a 7-year relationship and was desperately waiting for a proposal. I had just bounced a check that I had written out to my boss. My father and I weren’t on speaking terms. I was up to my ears in credit card and student loan debt. And as anyone in that state would be, I was clinically depressed. Basically, my life was in shambles.
But then, Amanda came into my life like a beacon of hope. Through her guidance and support, I discovered a strength within myself that I never knew existed. She didn't just wave a magic wand and make all my problems disappear, but what she did was far more valuable. Amanda equipped me with the essential life skills needed to tackle my challenges head-on, to confront my fears, and to keep moving forward in life, even when it seemed impossible.
Today, I stand here in awe of how far I've come. All my dreams that once felt so out of reach have become my reality. I can proudly say now that I have paid off all my credit card and student loan debt, we paid for our wedding in cash, I have launched my own business, and am happily married with two kids. I was able to heal my relationship with my father before he passed away. The limited beliefs that once held me back have been lifted, and I now approach life with a sense of empowerment and purpose. Because of Amanda, I am no longer driving with the brakes on. I'm cruising down the highway of life, embracing every twist and turn with confidence and enthusiasm. Thank you, Amanda, for helping me unlock my true potential and for guiding me towards a life filled with fulfillment and success. Amanda's wisdom and guidance have truly transformed my life, and I am forever grateful for her presence in my journey.
Audryn S. - Culver City, California
Working with Amanda as my transformational life coach has been a GAME-CHANGER. Right from the start, Amanda's direct and no-nonsense approach made all the difference. With compassion, she cuts through the noise, zeroing in on what really matters, and she challenged me to do the same. Her ability to pinpoint exactly what I needed to hear pushed me further than I ever thought possible.
Amanda's style is for those who are serious about growth in all areas of life. She doesn’t shy away from tough conversations; instead, she makes them a powerful tool for freedom. Her spiritual, straight-shooting feedback and practical strategies have empowered me to re-write my story; unshackled by old limiting beliefs and fears, I have been able to step through doorways of opportunity that may have intimidated me in the past. (And even to create NEW doorways!)
What I respect most about Amanda is her commitment to real results. Her direction is simple, yet profound. Every session is packed with value, thanks to her sharp insights and tailored advice. She’s not just a coach; she's a catalyst for anyone ready to take their life to the next level.
Thanks to Amanda, I’ve not only achieved but exceeded my goals - professionally, personally, and spiritually. Her impact on my journey has been beyond profound, and I’m incredibly grateful for her guidance. If you’re prepared to do the work and embrace change, Amanda is the coach to help rocket you to the next dimension. Thank you, Amanda, for your unwavering support and for always keeping it real!
Jordan M. -Venice Beach, California
I’ve worked with Amanda for 8 years now! My life has transformed drastically since meeting her. I went from broke to owning multiple businesses that earn lots of money. I went from single to married with a wonderful son. I went from disparaging to loving myself, and I learned continuous skills to get out of any pain or problem I might face. She is tough, to the point, and all around awesome at what she does. Run, don’t walk to work with her should you be lucky enough to get the opportunity!
Mary T. -Long Beach, California
It is my 37th birthday. Before working with Amanda, I was on the verge of breaking up with my boyfriend, lived a life full of regrets, resentments and complete fear of the future. Four years of working with Amanda and leaning on the women in her Women’s group, I am a completely different person from who I was before. I married the man of my dreams (instead of breaking up with him), bought and remodeled our dream home, earn more while working less, have a better relationship with my mother/family, gave birth to the most chill baby boy, and I have tools to continue to turn around resentments and give it all to God. I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again, I feel like I totally won the lottery of life the day I was introduced to Amanda. I am forever grateful!
Tamyah C., Los Angeles, California
Before working with Amanda, I was obstinate, angry, overweight, and full of resentment. Negative situations and circumstances were the only reality I knew. I lacked any real faith in myself or anything else, and I stopped dreaming about my future. That was in 2015.
Today, not only have I lost the weight of my resentments, but my physical frame has also slimmed down too. I see the possibilities in life, and I feel deeply connected to my goals. Amanda has me taking REAL action towards my happiness, and for that I am forever grateful. The process has been by no means warm and fuzzy for me as Amanda had to be very firm in her methodologies in working with me, but it was worth it, and I look forward to our continuing working together.
Katy D., Venice, California
Amanda is the best! I went to her for coaching after I witnessed my long-time friend go through a major transformation in just a short period of time – my friend went from blaming her husband constantly (on the verge of a divorce), broke, and completely miserable to repairing her marriage, finding her dream career, and literally building an empire! My friend was stubborn, and Amanda was the only person she would listen to -- Amanda revolutionized my friend’s life. I didn’t want to miss out!
My life was not on fire when I met Amanda; I already had a great husband and a stable life, but after watching my friend's transformation, something inside me stirred and I became curious to see what would happen to me if I worked with Amanda. I’ve always flown under the radar and played everything “safe;” now I wanted to know what it would look like to put myself out there and to live a "full" life. I didn’t even know what that looked like or what that meant. In truth, I just had accepted the fact that my dreams didn’t work out, so why bother. I didn’t even realize how removed from the stream of life I was.
After working with Amanda, I went from scared of upsetting anyone, no career, and hoping things would change to getting honest, getting in reality and living a big life. My dreams are activated, and I am in my life engaging in ways I didn’t even know I would love. I didn’t have to break down my life to rebuild but clear out my ideas and try new things. It took willingness and very uncomfortable moments of truth, and now all I want to share with my friends it to let go of all the resentments, limiting beliefs and get on the ride of life. It’s so much more fun.
I brought my sister to Amanda. Wow! It has only been 3 weeks and she is living completely differently! Amanda resuscitates the soul!
Seppy A., Brentwood, Los Angeles
I have been on a journey of self-improvement for nearly four decades, and I am proud of what I have accomplished using a combination of tools and professionals. Having said that, I have made greater strides in the past nine months of working with Amanda than all of the preceding decades combined. Amanda is bright, insightful, humble, funny, and has a phenomenal ability to identify root causes of my hurdles which were disguised so subtly. She gives of herself completely, expecting nothing in return but my progress.
I find myself more hopeful, courageous, action-oriented, and in awe of what life offers in my 60s than I ever expected to be at this point of my life, and this is solely because of Amanda's coaching, explicit directions, and expertise. I wish I had had the privilege of working with her earlier in my life, but I’m very much looking forward to unfolding possibilities with her coaching.
Lisa E., Washington, D.C.
When I met Amanda, I was broke, in tears, and in a relationship that was dysfunctional and depleting, but I couldn’t let go. One year into working with Amanda, I had developed the trust, self esteem and financial independence to see clearly and move forward into the unknown. At 38, I started to become a version of myself I never imagined I would become -- spiritual, loving, financially abundant, optimistic, healthy (both emotionally and physically) and capable. I was very comfortable in the underdog position. For the past 8 years, Amanda has guided me into the wonderful discomfort of becoming a leader and expanding into a version of myself I can’t wait to work with every day. Amanda is the cocoon between caterpillar and butterfly. She gives you wings.
Nancy S., Beverly Hills, California
Amanda Cooper is an extraordinarily talented coach. She has a powerful ability to guide one to the heart of the matter, identify “the problem(s),” and move towards solution. She really sees people and applies her wisdom, experience and practicality to helping clients own their choices, live free and be their best selves.
Hollis W., Los Angeles, CA
Before I met Amanda, I was a dead woman walking. I was down to my last few dollars in my bank account; I was nursing a broken heart that was full of resentment toward my ex-husband (who I blamed for my being broke), and I was worried that my children liked my ex better than me. After sharing my tale of woe to a friend, she recommended (rather strongly) to call Amanda. I am so grateful for my friend’s “gentle” nudge.
When I arrived on Amanda’s door, my need was obvious: I desperately wanted to know what happened to that once confident, successful businesswoman whose self-made career included being (1) the first 3x winner of the Food Networks Cupcake Wars, (2) crowned by USA TODAY as the Queen of cupcakes, (3) the owner of several successful bakeries, (4) sent by the Obama administration to Guantanamo Bay Cuba to entertain the troops, and (5) interviewed by Katie Couric about my cookbook. I needed to know where she went, and more importantly, how I could get her back. Amanda helped me do just that and more!
I've had many spiritual teachers in my life, but never have I been shown the brutal reality and the truth of who I am until I met Amanda. She single-handedly slapped me awake and shook me into reality with the force of a power that I'd never experienced. I quickly realized that I was being supported by a woman who cared deeply for me, and I was able to relax into the process and welcome the change.
I remember the day my transformation was complete: it took 15 minutes for me to hear Amanda say stop, just stop, stop it! She was talking to the victim, the liar and thief of my life, the me who was in the way of finding joy, cultivating it in others, and living it every day. That was the day my life changed for the better; that was the day the new me emerged.
Today, not only is the confident, successful businesswoman back, but I’m discovering that the very best version of myself continues to get better every day. I now have, and am proud to say, an Olympic regime of mental hygiene and mental fitness. I am grateful for my ex-husband and the gifts he shares with me and our children. I no longer resent him for my finances. Among other things, Amanda taught me to be financially responsible by writing my own contracts and reading the fine print in all business transactions. I have discovered a new life purpose and am building a new brand to help people suffering from Mental illness. I was once living with the debilitating shame and judgment I carried about my Mental Health differences, Amanda helped me break through my fear, and now I help the most vulnerable youth who suffer from suicidal ideation and addiction because of the societal stigma around bipolar mental illness. I am so happy and grateful now that I am embracing the miracles in my life. Without a doubt, I highly recommend Amanda.
Rachael -Brentwood, Los Angeles
Amanda’s single question altered the trajectory of my life, ushering in a new perspective and worldview. This inquiry prompted a shift towards maturity, instilling in me a deep sense of responsibility for my own life. The path of self-discovery unfolds before me, marked by growth and ever-increasing enthusiasm. I have evolved into the most authentic version of myself, thanks to her invaluable guidance and support. I’m forever grateful!
Colleen F. -Los Angeles, California
Amanda Cooper has utterly changed my life. She has given me the skills to work with my mind, my fears, my anxiety, my self-doubt. All the things that have created obstacles for success and fulfillment. I have found the homework she has given to be inspiring, clarifying and able to motivate me to action. Her coaching has strengthened and focused, my critical thinking, the idea of letting go of confusion and worry did not seem like a possibility until I began to work with her. She has great insights, direction, a healthy perspective and terrific leadership skills and the beauty of humility.
My life today is joyful and fulfilled; my day-to-day life is grounded in discipline and commitment to self-improvement. This is the first time I have been clear about the vision for my future, my capacity to earn and my potential to succeed. I cannot recommend her enough for anyone who needs a strong coach with an unbelievable skill set to deliver to anyone willing to jump in and begin the work.
Corey H., Agoura Hills, California
My experience with Amanda Rae has been extraordinary. After years of therapy and tons of self-help books, I still carried resentments that interfered with my work, my relationships and my overall sense of well-being. Within a short time of working with Amanda, I felt more free and much lighter. My relationships with family and friends are flourishing and my life has improved immensely. I feel so much more empowered, and I am starting to take needed risks to grow my business. I continue to work with Amanda because I know that there is more untapped potential that I can access with Amanda’s help. I cannot say enough about how grateful I am for Amanda and the work we do together!
Renee M. -Pacific Palisades, California
I’ve known Amanda for more than 10 years and have witnessed some amazing results working with her. She is committed to mindfulness and challenging old thoughts and beliefs that keep us stuck in our pasts.
This work is perfect for the brave souls willing and eager to get out of their old stories and grow along spiritual lines into a life of abundance.
Annie, San Pablo, California
Every time I am with a new therapist, I end up lecturing to them about the things I have been learning from Amanda. Without exception, these therapists have been taking notes and learning from me as I am reporting to them the breakthroughs I have had with Amanda. I had to keep firing these therapists even though my insurance has been covering the costs, but hey, I am not going to sit there and teach these folks about how they could be doing their jobs. My point is this: hire Amanda as your coach and experience her magic wand.
Nat C., Canada
I'm honored to offer this heartfelt testimonial for Amanda Rae Cooper, whose remarkable blend of wisdom, authenticity, support, and exceptional knowledge and accountability has propelled me to heights in my personal and financial growth, and provided a sense of community belonging, that I couldn't have ever imagined before experiencing it and witnessing it in the members of her coaching community.
From my very first time meeting her, I experienced in Amanda a rare and incredibly beneficial combination of compassion and firmness. She pushed me beyond my comfort zone at times, but always with generosity and love and the clear goal of fostering growth. Her approach challenged me to confront my fears and limitations head-on, to access support, and resources that empowered me and fostered a previously unimagined resilience and determination within me.
With Amanda's coaching and the support of her incredible community, I've been able to achieve things beyond what I thought possible - from incredible relationships to personal success and more.
Amanda's courage in vulnerably, courageously and authentically sharing her own journey, successes, struggles and failures is also a constant source of inspiration, and an amazing reminder and proof that even in our imperfections and ups and downs we can achieve great things.
One of Amanda's other great strengths lies in her ability to instill accountability like no other. Through structured goal setting, regular check-ins, honest feedback, and facilitating connections with her other coaching community members, she ensures that we remain focused, committed, connected and moving forward towards our goals. This level of accountability not only kept me on track, but also empowered me to surpass my own expectations time and time again.
In addition, the coaching community Amanda has created is an incredible, supportive, and inspiring group of super successful women. Being part of this network has been invaluable, providing me with additional encouragement, motivation, and shared wisdom as I navigated my personal and professional journey. The camaraderie and mutual support within this community have amplified my growth and success, fostering an environment where women uplift and empower each other to reach new heights.
Thanks to Amanda's guidance and the support of the amazing community she created, I have experienced profound transformations in every aspect of my life. From cultivating a deeper sense of self-awareness to making meaningful contributions to my community to achieving important financial goals to developing, maintaining and deepening incredibly nourishing relationships in my life, their combined impact has been nothing short of life changing.
In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Amanda to anyone seeking a coach who not only challenges them to be their best selves but also supports them every step of the way. With Amanda by your side, and the incredible community she has built, you'll experience the courage, support, empowerment, resilience, and accountability needed to turn your dreams into reality.
Carenna W. - San Diego, California
Amanda has been instrumental in helping me to create a new frame of mind for marriage, friendship, health and fulfillment. It all comes from the inside and not the outside. I’m very grateful for her influence in my life.
