The Lost & Found Podcast is a heartfelt audio companion for anyone navigating the in-between—those raw, uncertain seasons when you’ve outgrown who you were but haven’t quite figured out who you’re becoming. Hosted by Amanda Powers, the show explores what it means to lose your way, question your identity, and rediscover purpose with courage, community, and grace. Through soulful solo episodes and deeply vulnerable interviews with inspiring guests, Amanda bridges the gap between feeling lost and finding truth. It’s not just a podcast—it’s a movement for wanderers, seekers, and anyone ready to live with more clarity, meaning, and freedom. Because the truth is: being lost isn’t the end. It’s where your real story begins.
Amanda Powers is a purpose-driven creator, writer, and podcast host with a passion for helping people find themselves in the moments they feel most lost. After a decade-long career in national security, she made a bold leap into the unknown—trading comfort for authenticity and a paycheck for purpose.
Now, Amanda uses her voice and story to guide others through the emotional terrain of personal growth, identity shifts, and life transitions. Known for her grounded wisdom, emotional honesty, and unwavering empathy, Amanda creates spaces where people feel seen, safe, and inspired to keep showing up for themselves—especially when life gets messy. Her work is rooted in one belief: sometimes, the most powerful thing you can do is start where you are.

Wandering on purpose. New places, new perspective, always worth the detour.
I feel the most alive when I "let go." Dancing has always made me feel free.
My anchors. My chaos. My heart. They remind me who I am.

In my newsletter, I talk about life’s messiest moments—heartbreak, identity shifts, burnout—and how to turn them into powerful comebacks.
At my lowest moment, I needed an “internet big sis” to remind me that reinvention is possible, even when it feels like everything’s crashing down. But I couldn’t find her.
So I decided to become her instead.
If you're looking for likeminded people trying to figure out their purpose in this world, join me. I know none of us have it all figured out, but maybe if we share our stories and compare "maps" we might just get to where we are meant to be.
