Having experienced the power of recovery for herself, her passion now is to equip hurting people for long-term healing. Amanda can often be heard saying, “We are looking to create lasting change, not fleeting success followed by more struggle.”

Outside of her professional work, Amanda finds her true sense of joy and purpose in being a mother to her two children, jamming out to hip-hop music, and mindfully connecting body, mind, and spirit near the ocean.
“For years, I thought my life was doomed to a miserable existence. I was unhealthy, depressed, and severely addicted to substances and a face-paced lifestyle. When I found recovery in 2007, a new world was unlocked for me… a world full of possibility, dreams, desires, the fruits of a strong work ethic, and adventure. I dreamed about living a life in which I was happy, however, my reality has far surpassed my dreams. That is what I want for the people I get to work with. I can’t wait to see the surprised look on their faces when they find out just how good life can be.”
Amanda Marino has been featured as a professional expert on A&E’s Digital Addiction in 2022 and will be debuting as an Intervention Profession on the 2024 season of Intervention.
