Hi, I’m Amy. Do you have a minute to listen to what is in my heart? When I was young, I dreamed of the perfect life: marrying the best man, raising three beautiful children, becoming a doctor, and living happily ever after. But life had different plans. At first, I thought I had it all. But, the person in the mirror did not look familiar to me. I no longer recognized myself, or at least the version of myself I had created.
In my mid-thirties, I sat by the pool with friends, watching our children play. According to everyone, we were living “the life.” Yet, an overwhelming dread washed over me. I thought, “If this is life, I don’t want it anymore. You can keep it for yourself.” I had been enduring emotional abuse, and I knew I needed to leave my marriage. But, I did not know how. When I finally gathered enough strength to leave, the devastation that was thrust upon me was unimaginable.
Then, a car accident nearly killed me, leaving me with Traumatic Brain Injury and intense physical pain, yet I appeared fine. I had to fight, while hiding my struggles, to protect my children. Over the years, I did my best to rebuild my life, but a second car accident left me broken and suffering, yet again. My body was physically and emotionally shutting down as I developed Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
In my forties, I longed for peace, wishing to reconcile the pain. Then, a spiritual renewal brought me back to life. Through arduous struggles, I rediscovered my purpose. Nature has always been my sanctuary and is where I feel closest to God. I knew I needed a fresh start. But where and with who? In my fifties, I discovered everything in life has led me to this moment in time, my time.
White Heron, A Creation Story is the result of my embracing all of who I am and all of my experiences through my journey. It is my story and a faithful companion for anyone on their own journey of self-discovery, healing and transformation. Come, take my hand, I am waiting for you.

In this captivating masterpiece, Amy invites us into her intricate yet refreshingly grounded world of perspectives. I was immediately drawn into a thought-provoking dialogue surrounding the nuances of complexity and complication – a distinction that sets the tone from the onset for the profound insights to come.
Her assertion that they are “complex” rather than “complicated” reveals a deep self-awareness and appreciation for the multifaceted nature of their experiences and learning. This openness to embracing the richness of life’s lessons is both humbling and inspiring, reminding us that true wisdom often lies in the ability to find simplicity amidst complexity.
What truly resonates is Amy’s reverence for individuality and respect for diverse belief systems. Her stance on understanding and accepting others, even in the face of disagreement, is a powerful testament to the universal values of empathy and open-mindedness. This perspective is a much-needed antidote to the polarization and intolerance that pervade our modern discourse.
This book captures a unique blend of spirituality, mythology, and personal experiences, blurring the lines between fiction and non-fiction. This intriguing fusion promises to take readers on a deeply personal yet universally relatable journey of self-discovery and enlightenment.
Overall, I found this extraordinary work of art to be a tantalizing opportunity for each of us to step back and challenge our assumptions, broaden our perspectives, and ultimately, remind us of the beauty and simplicity that can be found in life’s complexities.
