Amanda findet tiefe Erfüllung in Textilien und Handarbeiten und betrachtet das Schaffen als eine wesentliche Praxis zur Selbstpflege in der Mutterschaft, als Mittel zur Ressourcenschonung durch Wiederverwendung und als Möglichkeit, sich mit vergangenen Generationen zu verbinden. Ihre Arbeit betont, wie das Schaffen an der Seite von Kindern, den von Natur aus fantasievollsten Wesen, Inspiration, Wachstum und tiefe familiäre Verbundenheit fördert. Sie glaubt, dass Kreativität durch vielfältige Aktivitäten ausgedrückt werden kann, vom Nähen und Kochen bis zur Naturerkundung, und Vorteile bietet, die über das fertige Produkt hinausgehen, um die Seele der Familie zu nähren und zu vereinen. Letztendlich hofft sie, andere Familien zu inspirieren, kreativen Ausdruck in ihren Alltag zu integrieren.

Mnozí z nás, kteří žijeme v rušných rodinách, touží po pomalejším a jednodušším životě s našimi dětmi, který je v souladu s ročními obdobími a přirozeným rytmem roku, po tom, aby mohli strávit více času s dětmi venku, po životě, který by vyvážil nezbytnosti dnešního života – počítače, televizory, mobilní telefony – s hlubším spojením se Zemí. Kniha Rytmus rodiny je průvodcem takovým životem pro každou rodinu. Pomáhá nám sledovat změny ročních období a zpomaluje nás, inspiruje novými typy tvořivé hry, vzbuzuje v nás pocit pospolitosti rodiny, prohlubuje povědomí o přírodě, učí nás kreativitě a přivádí tak blíže k Zemi a k našim dětem.
