About Me…
My name is Amaya Smith. I am a young attorney (pending Bar results) living life in California. I have a passion for Intellectual Property and internet policy, and hope to spend a great amount of my life working my butt off in that field.
Aside from the law, I have a lot of other interests and am always doing all kinds of things from cooking up a storm, to hiking, to reading, to attending any music festival ever, to crafting weird projects, to random artistic ventures with my talented friends. I have a couple small, fluffy, adorable dogs and am surrounded by interesting people most of the time-- I'm lucky like that.
This past year has been a CHALLENGE to say the least. I graduated from law school, I took the CA Bar Exam, and am building a new and incredible relationship, but all those good things have come with plenty of bad. I found out I married a cheater and a liar and filed for divorce ending over a six year relationship. I also lost my grandmother this year. I broke my nose. I did Bar Prep and didn't die. I had a severe double ear infection during Bar Prep and THOUGHT I was gonna die. There are more. The point is that I learned a lot about resilience. I also have finally reached a point in my life where I want to make things as good as I possibly can. I'm tired of excuses. I'm tired of being tossed around in the waves of whatever is happening around me. In the few places in life I am able to take charge, you better believe I will. If I'm unhappy, it's up to me to change it, and that's exactly what I've been doing.
I became a Beachbody coach recently in order to help others achieve their fitness goals right alongside my own. Solidarity! There are plenty of things that can happen in your life that are mostly out of your control, but, depending on your overall health, your fitness isn't one of them. I want to move ahead in my life treating myself and my body the best I possibly can. The results will show. Contact me if you want to join me or have any questions about how to get started.
