I am so completely jazzed that you are here!
Kind Over Matter is a community of loving souls changing the world & we would love to have you join in on our efforts. Sound lavishly overstated? It's not.
What are we doing exactly? We are leading authentic lives doing what we love & by sharing that, by giving it a voice, we are helping more people step into their dreams & greatness.
What does this have to do with Kindness? Well, I'll tell you.
When you are tapped into & share your most real self, when you shine your light without fear & shame, when you are open to grow, to be creative, peaceful, loving, when you tell your story -- you are doing the world & yourself the biggest Kindness.
Why? Because you are giving others the permission to do the same - one soul at a time - by holding on to your self-worth, your self-respect, by doing good, by being a beacon of kindness & love - you set an example, when like-minded people get together, it forms community & that acts as one big permission slip to the world.
There are 5 ways you can contribute to Kind Over Matter besides becoming a sponsor, get all the sweet details here!
Hop on over the WELCOME page, it will help you navigate through this vast ocean of goodness, I want you to feel at home here.
Don't want to miss any of this goodness? You can subscribe via email here!
Right now, I'm going to get into who I am & tell you the back story of how Kind Over Matter was born.

Hi, I'm Amanda, curator of connection & provisioner of benevolent beauty. Mama. Lover. Spiritual Rebel. Poet. Multi-Passionate Solopreneur. Kindness Advocate -- & THIS is why I do what I do.
I believe that part of my purpose here is to aid in raising human consciousness. I believe in oneness & the resilience of the human spirit. I believe in YOUR freedom just as much as I do my own.
Kind Over Matter & these goods are my tools & gifts to the world.
These are my stories.
I am a self-taught artist, writer, designer & a big-big dreamer. I haven't had any formal education on cultivating peace & love in others but I feel that my past experiences working in health care, as a hospice nurse, nursing assistant & an activities coordinator in a nursing home, guided me to go this direction with my creativity.
Being a 4th generation entrepreneur, there has always been creative goodness brimming with entrepreneurial spirit surrounding me. So, take that & mix it with my compassion for the human race & my love for making one smile & this is what you get: Kind Over Matter.
I love celebrating people. I love rooting for people to be their greatest selves & make their dreams happen. My hope is that I set an example showing that you can thrive by doing it with love & kindness... & have a helluva lot of FUN doing it. I'm a bit a goofball. I swear a lot. Music, laughing, kissing, writing & dancing are 5 of my most favoritest things.

My soul sister Jenn Gibson & I started Kind Over Matter in February 2009 (she has since parted to tend to her big dream), with the hope of spreading love & kindness by card dropping. Since, it has blossomed into a lovefest full of awesome & creative individuals -- & it's damn near breathtaking.
I live in western Pennsylvania with my love & life partner, Kurt. We have two awesome & loving sons, 4 year old Zenin & 1 year old Joel - you can "meet" them here, I am blessed. I am a crafter, I make art, books & love taking photos. I am the author of several poetry chapbooks.
I'm an ever-growing, always learning, work-in-progress, just like you.
