The Journey Unscripted Podcast's
Welcome to The Journey Unscripted — a space where inner truth, emotional intelligence, authenticity, and soulful exploration meet. Hosted by Amanda Andrade, Relationship & Intimacy Coach and Quantum Hypnotherapist, this podcast invites you to shed the scripts, release the “shoulds,” and reconnect with the wisdom within.
Each episode is an intuitive dive into the human experience — raw, reflective, and real. Through solo musings, guided meditations, vulnerable stories, and powerful insights, Amanda helps you navigate the emotional landscapes of transformation, healing, and spiritual growth.
This isn’t about perfection or performance. It’s about presence.
Because if you allow it, you can feel it.
And if you feel it, you can finally be free.
Whether you're a seeker, a creative, a coach, or someone ready to live with greater authenticity and self-trust, this is your invitation to embark on an unscripted journey.

What Happens When You Stop Hiding Who You Are?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
On May 27, a new conversation arrives on The Journey Unscripted, and this one explores the parts of ourselves many people are taught to hide.
In this deeply honest episode, I sit down with Mariko Sakai to talk about authenticity, identity, vulnerability, and the emotional reality of navigating communities that are often misunderstood or judged — including BDSM and non-monogamy.
But at its core, this conversation isn’t about labels.
It’s about what happens when you stop abandoning yourself to fit societal expectations.
Together, we explore:
✨ The challenge of sharing personal truths in taboo spaces
✨ Societal conditioning, shame, and self-judgment
✨ The emotional cost of hiding parts of yourself
✨ The journey toward authenticity and self-acceptance
✨ The importance of community and safe spaces for expression
Mariko shares her lived experiences with incredible honesty and nuance, offering a conversation that feels less about rebellion… and more about permission.
Permission to question.
Permission to feel.
Permission to exist beyond inherited narratives.
This episode invites us to ask:
What parts of ourselves are we still afraid to fully own?
