Inspiring Conversations with Amy Henry of The Desire Empire

Today we’d like to introduce you to Amy Henry.

Amy Henry

Hi Amy, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today.
When I was in 8th grade, my English teacher made a comment to me that stuck in adulthood. Having a creative mind where I could script dance choreography in my mind, paint on canvases, and take portraits of individuals to capture a moment in time, writing, I believed, was not a talent God chose to give to me.

Fast forward to 2022 when I was going through my divorce and began meditating and journaling as a way of connecting to myself and spiritually to God, writing became therapy for me. In the summer of that year, I hired a business coach to get my nutrition and wellness company back into corporate America.

Having written a business plan and vision, as well as discussing my past experiences, Kim said something to me that changed the direction of my life. She said to me “You know Amy, you have a really quirky way of writing that is both authentic and entertaining…and you have a captivating back story. I think you should write a book!” And with that statement, my mind opened to the possibility that perhaps I could write after all.

All it took was someone changing the story I had carried with me throughout life, to give me permission to put my story on paper. And boy, did I write! Within 6 weeks I had written over 200 pages, for which I realized, I needed to actually make it into 2 books. I have been working with my editor to get my books published and in August of 2024, my memoir manifesto will be released.

“Big Desire” gives the world insight into my story of how society and big industries impacted my life and how I finally decided to live life authentically and boldly. My second book, The Desire Method, is a transformational roadmap for people over 40 who feel stuck and are hitting the “midlife crisis.”

My goal is to inspire individuals to take their power back and truly get the shape they desire, through mindset shifting, subconscious reprogramming, nutrition and exercise insight, sleep optimization, and meditation. Through my book, The Desire Method, individuals can begin their transformational journey through my 28-Day Method which is available on my website, www.thedesireempire.com.

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Only through destruction can transformation occur, my spiritual and personal journey had to start through a shift in my life. I created a “picture-perfect” life yet, inside I knew I wasn’t fulfilled and there was always a feeling that something was missing. The “missing” piece was my authentic self.

Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about The Desire Empire?
I’m a passionate leader and Master Wellness Coach with a mission to empower people over 40 to create their dream lives. Unlike most coaches, I understand the unique challenges you face – career stagnation, empty nest syndrome, or simply feeling lost.

Through my own journey of overcoming self-doubt and body image struggles, I discovered the power of a holistic approach to wellness. That’s why I created The Desire Method, a 28-day transformational wellness program designed to address the root cause of your struggles: your mindset and subconscious beliefs.

The Desire Method goes beyond diets and exercise fads. We focus on the power of your mind and subconscious to rewire limiting beliefs and unlock your true potential to get the body, mindset, habits, and outlook you desire.

Through our 5 pillars (Rewire, Reframe, Rekindle, Reawaken, Rebirth), you’ll learn to:

-Rewire your mindset by identifying and eliminating negative thought patterns holding you back.

-Reframe your relationship with food by discovering intuitive eating and nourishing your body for optimal health and energy.

-Rekindle your love of movement by rediscovering the joy of movement and creating sustainable exercise habits.

-Reawaken the power of sleep and how to reprogram your subconscious mind for better mental clarity, physical recovery, and mindset shifting.

And finally, this journey leads to a Rebirth of your desired self by designing your personalized action plan to achieve your dream body and a fulfilling life based on your unique life. The Desire Method isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about empowering you to become the best version of yourself – in mind, body, and spirit.

What has been the most important lesson you’ve learned along your journey?
The beliefs and stories we carry with us throughout life can actually prevent us from finding our true purpose and passions. Rather than just accepting what you have been told, seek answers to who you are and what you desire in your life, in order to live your most authentic and rewarding reality.
