For over a decade, Amy Thurman lived with a broken neck, a sheared brainstem, and a traumatic brain injury, undiagnosed for six months. That experience could have shattered her. Instead, it became the foundation for something greater.
After spending a year nearly bedridden and battling hopelessness, Amy made a decision that changed everything: to rebuild, realign, and rise. Through her own journey of resilience, reinvention, and radical self-discovery, she created the Polish the Mirror Framework: a transformational process designed to help others break free from fear and step into authentic leadership and living.
Today, Amy is a best-selling author, keynote speaker, educator, and fierce advocate for turning pain into purpose, known for helping individuals, businesses, schools, and organizations move from fear-based decision-making to aligned, heart-centered leadership.
Her work empowers people to uncover their worth, lead with confidence, and create meaningful impact, personally and professionally.
In June 2022, Amy joined a direct sales company and, just seven months later, was invited to share her story on stage at their annual convention. That moment confirmed what she teaches every day:
When you embrace your authenticity, the right opportunities will find you.
Known for her out-of-the-box thinking and soul-centered strategies, Amy’s mission is simple but powerful:
To help leaders lead more authentically, people live more authentically, and organizations create environments where real, lasting transformation begins.
Whether she’s speaking from stage, consulting with teams, or working one-on-one, Amy invites every audience to look inward, rediscover who they are beneath the noise, and Polish the Mirror of their lives.
