We are undeniably stronger together, and now more than ever, we have a remarkable opportunity to advocate for our younger generation. Our youth desperately need our support to navigate the challenges posed by an artificial food culture that can significantly impact their health and well-being. My vision is to partner with schools, community organizations, physical therapists, sports doctors, and sports programs to empower our children and help reverse the negative effects of unhealthy eating habits.

 

I believe that change doesn't have to be all or nothing. By making incremental shifts toward whole food choices in the areas that matter most, we will create a profound impact in the lives of our youth. One of my primary goals is to collaborate with the school system to enhance the nutritional quality of school lunches and breakfasts. Numerous studies have linked proper nutrition to improved behavior, better classroom performance, and higher attendance rates—lessening the burden of sickness.

 

Imagine the incredible ripple effect we could create! Small adjustments to what our kids consume daily will lead to remarkable improvements in academic performance, classroom behavior, and athletic achievements. When we all come together, we will ensure that our children are not only set up for a healthier present but also equipped for a successful future.

 

I want to be a pioneer to unite our efforts to champion the nutritional needs of our youth, fostering an environment where they can thrive both academically and physically. Together, we can make a lasting difference in their lives.  Through the Empowered Youth Project, Amber is excited to create a program that funds scholarships for youth fitness development and mental performance coaching. She is actively building a team to expand her community outreach initiatives, which include organizing and sponsoring 5K, 10K, and 20K races, along with other wellness events. Additionally, in 2025 she is launching a new book series titled “Get Unstuck,” “Be a Champion,” and “Choose Momentum” to empower all ages to unlock their potential through her personal stories of overcoming struggle, setbacks, and defeat. She also shares practical strategies for pursuing a great, big, and bold life. In this book series she also shares inspiring stories of both kids and adults she's had the privilege to coach, highlighting how simple changes in their fitness and nutrition routines transformed their lives for the better.

​

The Empowered Youth Project will also offer a video lesson curriculum specifically designed for schools and sports organization to teach our younger generation how to harness the power of nutrition to transform what is possible in their lives and improve mental resilience. She believes "Our young people are the future, and it is our responsibility to set them up for success. By advocating for our youth and providing them with the resources they need, we will empower them to make a positive impact on the world!"
