About Me

Hi, I’m Amanda Thomas

Amanda Thomas is a Certified Parent Coach, Bestselling Author, Speaker, and founder of Amanda Thomas Coaching. With a background in education and personal experience as both a mother and stepmother, Amanda helps parents move beyond daily frustrations to create a home filled with connection, balance, and joy.

Through her one-on-one coaching programs, Amanda guides parents to recognize unhelpful patterns, shift their mindsets, and develop strategies that align with their values—rather than default reactions shaped by old habits or stress.

Her own journey navigating the unique challenges of step motherhood and blended family life has given Amanda a deep understanding of the importance of self-care and connection. She believes that effective parenting begins with the parent, echoing the truth behind the phrase: “You have to put your own oxygen mask on first.”

Amanda’s mission is to help parents embrace a growth mindset and cultivate an environment where both parent and child can thrive. Her work inspires families to build strong, lasting bonds and approach each day with gratitude, confidence, and purpose.

About the Process

Using a proven 12-week curriculum grounded in neuroscience, attachment science, and empowered communication, this process supports you in identifying and releasing old patterns, limiting beliefs, and emotional reactions that get in the way of aligned parenting.

You’ll learn to shift from control or conflict-based strategies to a place of deep connection, boundaries with empathy, and true emotional leadership.

Rooted in the principles developed by the Jai Institute for Parenting, this coaching is based on cutting-edge research in child development, trauma recovery, and nervous system regulation. The foundation of this work is simple but powerful: when we learn to regulate ourselves, we can co-regulate with our children—giving them the tools to grow into emotionally healthy, confident, and connected adults.

This is transformational support designed to meet you where you are at and empower you with the awareness, skills, and confidence to raise your children in alignment with your deepest values.

I entered Amanda's coaching course with a completely open mind, with the intention to fully receive all of her guidance and support. After the twelve week program, I have a greater empathy, my eyes are opened wide, and I feel empowered to continue on life's beautiful journey of motherhood. I recommend her course to anyone who yearns to communicate stronger, connect deeper, and empathize wholeheartedly with the precious children in their lives.

Kimberly Johnson

Mother of Four

I feel like I was a screamer and there was a lot of yelling in our house. I read a quote one time that said, kids aren't great at doing what they are told, they are great at doing what they see, and that really stuck with me. I knew that if I didn't do something different, the cycle would continue and they would end up doing the same thing and I didn't want that for them. Upon entering my 1:1 coaching program with Amanda, my biggest intention was to shift this area. This experience has been completely transformational in not just how I parent, but in how I lead and listen.
