What does that really mean? Amanda talks from her own experience struggling with a variety of issues. Institutionalized at age 14 to 15 for addiction issues, she spent a year in Juvenile Hall. Married at age 16, a mother at age 19 and divorced at 21, Amanda shares how she had to find things about herself that she liked , even if it was just one thing.
She says, " I am about solutions and helping the individual find what works for THEM and I do that by telling my story and what helped me. "
Amanda has been speaking at a variety of public venues, including correctional facilities, since she was 21 years old. Her ability to relate to audiences of all kinds gets her positive message through and inspires them into action.
From her unique experience being both in front and behind the camera, Amanda talks about the false version of reality young women are sold in the popular media , which often distort a young mind's sense of what is "normal" around beauty and body image.
In her talk, she includes before and after images that have been manipulated to make the subjects appear thinner and with flawless skin. Most of these images are recognizable subjects whom she has photographed for high profile publications.
Like many before her, huge fame at such a young age came at a price.
An insider in the fast lane, de Cadenet overcame those hurdles and put her own mark on an industry that doesn't particularly value realistic images of women in the media.
Her work both in front of and behind the camera champions girls and young women to realize their potential on their own terms. She offers practical information and advice gleaned from women of all walks of life, and opens the doors on the universal language of women.
By sharing her story and those of other role models, she is a refreshing voice of candor and inspiration helping women undergoing similar challenges.
