An educational and supportive program to help you take back control of your migraine and reclaim your life.
I know right now you are...
• At your absolute wits' end going back and forth to doctors who offer no real answers and just give you another prescription to try.
• Going to scream if one more person suggests getting some fresh air or drinking more water! You are exhausted from carrying the weight of migraine on your own.
• Walking on eggshells every single day feeling constantly on edge as you analyse every potential trigger - did I sleep funny? Was it the weather? That coffee?
• Struggling through your work days trying to hide the fact that your laptop screen makes you want to gauge your eyes out. You are desperately clinging onto your career but every sick day feels like it is slipping away from you.
• Heartbroken having to constantly miss out and let people down. Cancelled plans with friends, rearranged family dinners - every invitation now brings that dreaded anxiety, every social event another calculation of risk vs reward.
I know, because this used to be me.
My Story
In 2015 my life got flipped upside down by chronic migraine. I had head pain all day every day and experienced debilitating migraine attacks 20+ days of the month.
The constant pressure inside my head never left. During attacks, the pain intensified to throbbing in my temples, with every step feeling like my head would split in two.
My dreams of working in the city as an ambitious graduate were shattered when I was forced to give up my job. I spent nearly all my time confined to bed, unable to exercise, socialise, or do any of the things I loved. Goodbye tennis at the weekends. Hello, bedroom prison.
Even the smallest sliver of sunlight through my curtains burned my eyes. Everyday kitchen sounds became so overwhelming that I ate most meals alone in bed wearing earplugs.
The unpredictability was exhausting – never knowing if I could keep plans with friends or be present for family gatherings. I hated missing out and letting people down, but when I did push through, I'd often pay the price later. During family days with my nieces and nephews, I was forced to retreat to quiet rooms while they played, grieving the "fun Aunty Amy" I couldn't be.
Just like you, I went back and forth to doctors trying different medications. Even after seeing headache specialists, I was infuriated that nobody could give me clear answers on why this had happened or how long it would take for me to get better. It felt like I had lost everything I thought my life would look like overnight and that my only option ahead was that I just needed to find a preventative medication that worked for me. Tell me something I don't know!!
Frustrated by my lack of progress with western medicine, I explored alternative options - maybe I was missing an underlying root cause?
So I tried everything:
• Chiropractors, osteopaths, physios
• Special pillows and neck traction devices
• Food sensitivity testing
• Anti-inflammatory diets
• Avoiding all triggers
The harder I searched for a 'root cause,' the worse my attacks became.
I wasted so much time and money on treatments that didn't work.
Fear consumed me – would I be stuck like this forever? I grieved my old life and the future I had planned. It was torture knowing I was capable of so much while trapped in a body that wouldn't cooperate.
Everything changed when I dropped the root cause search and finally understood migraine for what it truly is - a neurological disorder.
I dedicated years to learning everything I could about migraine - diving deep into medical research, clinical trials and evidence-based approaches. What made my research truly unique was the incredible insights I gained from speaking to people with migraine every single day. Through The Migraine Life community, I had access to real experiences from people all over the world - what worked, what didn't, and why.
This powerful combination of science and real-world insights led me to discover the two keys to migraine relief:
1. Raising your migraine threshold
2. Retraining your brain
This combination of physical and mental strategies ultimately led me to remission from chronic migraine. It didn't happen overnight but this comprehensive approach took my recovery far beyond what medication alone could achieve.
Today, I'm not just managing migraine - I'm thriving. I'm in remission from chronic migraine and have even been able to come off my preventative medications. Most mornings I wake up with a crystal clear head! My life is no longer dictated by migraine and I can work, exercise, socialise and travel again.
As I watched countless others struggle with the same frustrations I had faced, I knew I had to share what I'd discovered. I distilled my years of research, personal experience and insights from thousands of migraine sufferers into The Migraine Life Method – the comprehensive framework that now forms the backbone of Managing Migraine: Survive to Thrive.
Now I want to help speed up your journey to migraine relief. I've put everything I've learned into one place so you don't have to spend years figuring it all out like I did.
Hi 👋 I'm Amy, founder of The Migraine Life
I'm a migraine advocate, educator and content creator who has transformed my own struggle with chronic migraine into a mission to help others.
Through years of advocacy work, I have become a trusted voice in the migraine community. I help bridge the gap between traditional medical approaches and brain training techniques. What makes my perspective unique is that I don't take an "all-or-nothing" approach - I'm not solely focused on medication and treatments, nor am I exclusively about brain training or holistic approaches. Instead, I combine what actually works based on science and real-world results, cutting through all the noise and overpromises of magical cures.
I want to teach you everything I know to help you manage your migraine and speed up your journey to better head days.
Imagine how it would feel if...
• Waking up with a crystal clear head was your norm - no more immediately scanning your body for trouble brewing, just enjoying your morning cup of tea in bed.
• You had a complete toolkit beyond just medication - understanding exactly how to work with your brain instead of against it, knowing how to handle any migraine situation that arises, and feeling truly empowered in your recovery instead of helpless and at the mercy of your next attack.
• Your colleagues knew you as the fun one who’s amazing at their job instead of the one who’s always off sick and they have to cover for. You confidently lead meetings under bright office lights, take on exciting new projects and finally go for that promotion you’ve been putting off.
• You felt excited about upcoming plans, that wedding in the summer, dinner with a friend at the weekend. You’re planning your outfit and choosing what you’re going to eat from the menu - no backup plan needed!
• You were able to be fully present and enjoy time with the people you love. Hello Sunday lunches with your family, beach days in the summer, going to see your favourite band in concert and spontaneous weekend adventures!
All of this is possible when you understand your migraine properly and have the right tools and support in place.
I can't wait to show you how.
