I can’t even express how important this story was to tell. I am in awe of you Amanda. BPN please keep sharing stories like this, you are changing lives. The production team absolutely blew me away with this film. Whoever was involved please take a bow .
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of the incredibly kind comments. It warms my heart to have the opportunity to share my story in hopes that it makes an impact on even just one person looking for their light 🤍 BPN media, thank you for taking this project so seriously and for beautifully capturing, creating, and sharing this film. I am in awe of your dedication 🤍
Seeing your journey has been such a blessing. I am currently straining for a race amongst the wreckage of Hurricane Helene here in NC and I really needed to see this
Amanda, you are amazing and an inspiration! I am currently between surgery and radiation after being diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer in August. I am still keeping my race goals in place as it gives me motivation to keep eating well and exercising. I explored my ikigai a few years ago and cancer has sharpened my focus on living it every day. Thank you so much for sharing your story.
I had the blessing of going to high school with Amanda and I can confirm she has ALWAYS been this radiant, genuine, kindhearted, incredibly intelligent and STRONG in all senses of the word. She is a force to be reckoned with and the Lord has His hand upon her in such stunning ways. I love you Amanda!!!! This film is riveting and so visually captivating - but best of all it’s true.
She's a total bad ass. And the film, you guys? Are you kidding me? It's fucking stellar. Amanda is so inspiring. As long as there are people like her in the world, I have faith in humanity. Same goes to the whole team at B.P.N. You guys are next level. You smash every project you take on, you guys. Outstanding work.
Unbelievable story. I was crying the entire time. Such a great great video - so much love and respect. Still crying writing this. Amanda you absolute warrior.
Everyone has a story ... but not like this. I loved hearing Amanda describe late in the race (paraphrasing): this isn't suffering - painful but not suffering. I think she meant as compared to cancer - running isn't ever suffering; rather it provides her so much life, joy, happiness, conviction, etc. Bless your beautiful heart, Amanda.
I’m in awe of and frankly have always been envious of people like Amanda who channel their pain and trauma into performance. Or who seem to have this endless drive to achieve. I’ve had depression and anxiety since I was 8 years old. Some days, getting out of bed feels like a marathon effort in itself. And there’s nothing impressive about it. I’ve always felt like a chronic underperformer. But some days my 100% looks like other’s 2%. I found this so inspiring and Amanda you are superhuman 💕
What incredible production. The edit, storytelling, and cinematography was amazing. Kudos to the folks behind the scenes and Kudos to Amanda for her perseverance and unbreakable mindset.
Love this lady💕 Such an inspiration 🙏 I found out I had stage 1 uterine cancer in 2022. They found 6 tumors about the size of lemons. I had a full hysterectomy at the age of 37. There is little to no support for women’s health. I had physical therapist after physical therapist turn me away because they did not have a program to assist me. What?!? 🤯 My own surgeon told me their is almost zero research results to explain why this happens to women. Thanks to god I was blessed with a great father and amazing Husband. My father was a former Army Infantry soldier and fitness trainer. He was severely injured during his military career and was told he could never run again due to his knee having zero cartilage because of all the damage. He went on to run 7 marathons. My father drafted a physical therapy plan for me to gain my strength back again. It literally started with Day 1- Walk around your block. The pain was so intense it took me 20 minutes but I did it. My husband walked with me everyday .. encouraged me on days that were very Dark. After following Amanda’s channel I was inspired to do what I love again … Run. I am up to 10 miles a week now. Thank you 🙌🙏💕💪
I’m a nicu nurse (babies) and am shocked at how little services there are for women postpartum. I can’t even imagine how hard that was for you to go through. Every once and a while you find some gems out there that offer amazing services for women. I’m hoping there will be more and more. Best of luck to you in your health journey ❤
First I’d like to say that Amanda has shown me a product (BPN) that is reliable and I truly believe in their background and I will be purchasing your stuff to try it out. Second, Amanda, you are truly an inspirational person. You are at the top of my list of people I would love to meet. You just seem so genuine, so motivated and so kind. We need more people like you in this crazy world. Your videos and goals have helped me get through some tough days and I truly appreciate you! You got this next race. I’m cheering for you, here from southern AZ!
It’s 5:28 in the morning in Austin and you got me cutting onions while doing mobility for my morning run. Lol what an inspiring piece. Well done Amanda!!
Hands down the best video BPN has ever done!! Amanda, you are such an inspiration! Thank you for sharing your story and reminding us all that we are unbreakable.
Great film and Amanda you should be so proud to be surrounded by such amazing people who you motivate and inspire daily by just being you. I absolutely loved seeing all the love from Amanda's husband. I have never see him on her channel or Instagram and it shows what a true best friend, number one supporter and partner in life is. Such a inspiring film. Way to go BPN and everyone featured 🎉
A true description of anything is possible. My life statement that I live by is “It’s All Mental.” Everything is. In this video she showed it. If you literally tell yourself something won’t break you & you truly believe it, it won’t. Anything is possible to overcome & mentally if you know this anyone can be “Unbreakable.” Love that statement. Great video. Truly inspiring.
This is truly an amazing documentary. I couldn’t stop getting emotional watching it. BPN did an outstanding job putting this together. Amanda congratulations and thank you for sharing your story with us. Truly an inspiration. 💛💛
Your resilience is truly admirable. It's a blessing to have people who love and support you unwaveringly. Thank you for inspiring us and showing what can be achieved when you push yourself to the fullest.
Beautiful. Truly.. The message, the ideation, the POWER behind this story. Absolutely incredible. Amanda - an unparalleled embodiment of resilience; a living legacy. BPN Media Team - You all are truly gifted storytellers. Your capacity to capture the human experience and convey it a manner that people on the other side of the screen can genuinely *feel*... Unbelievable. Thank you for sharing your gift with the world.
This film brought tears to my face. Such an incredible journey and amazing production. Could very well be my favorite film I've seen so far. Being able to relate to her story of pushing through adversity and how BPN displayed it, made it that much more powerful. IKIGAI has been and will continue to be an everyday mission, thank you for this!
How absolutely inspiring. I’ve been following her training and am very glad to have the story here in one narrative. Now I can never not show up for those 3:00 & 4:00 AM workouts. Who am I to say no when she’s fought through so much and come out on the other end doing what few can or will do. God bless her.
An immense emotional intelligence is captured by the filmmakers in this intensely told story. Amanda, you are a true shining light i n today's world.... continue to shine bright.
Such a beautifully inspirational woman and story! I have never heard the term Ikigai before and absolutely love it! Keep being unbreakable Amanda and sharing your story and life with the world! May God continue to bless you, your family and the crew around you! ❤
Absolutely loved this amazing documentary, Amanda your journey is so inspiring. I felt as if you were speaking to me about living life and not taking it for granted. This has hit my core. You’re a blessing. Stay UNBREAKABLE 🥹❤️
I listened to the podcast this morning and then got to see this gem! So awesome! Amanda, you are an inspiration! I’ve been following your journey since just a few months before Leadville. You have a rare and amazing spark. Many blessings dear!
Been waiting for this video ❤ you are such an inspiration!! I am also a veteran and had skin cancer but on my face. You truly inspire me. God is good ❤
Amazing. Huge inspiration! BPN media absolutely destroyed. Amanda huge inspiration my boy Brennik also with the shots! 🔥 loved seeing all of you on the course and I’m glad we came home with the W.
Thank you for that. It is truly amazing what you ve overcome. And your journey is inspiring beyond words. Thank you again for sharing and evaporating hope.
AMANDAAAAAAA!!!!! ALWAYS CHEERING YOU ON!!! ima say it a million times, on everything I see you post but girl you are a fucking inspiration!!!!! You've always had such an impressive drive.
You’re the definition of mental toughness. Things have went completely wrong left and right up and down and you still figure out a way to make the best out of the situation. Much respect and an amazing story i wish you nothing but the best! #unbreakable
There are so many lessons to take in over the course of this video, not least that if you suspect something is not right, you get yourself checked. As a melanoma survivor, my father with brain cancer and pancreatic cancer, I just knew i needed to be looked at, the fact that she waited so long 🤯 I guess we truly are in our own life paths and will seek help when the time is right. I really want to be critical, suffice it to say, I’m happy that she recovered. The lesson here is don’t be controlled by your emotions, and think rationally about something that could have potentially caused her to be unalived. Lastly, this video is why I’ve watched BPN for many years, fueled many a run with the podcast, but switched off all their channels after the introduction of the Hyrox nonsense! A shocking deviation from the essence of BPN, sad really. When that chapter is over, I’ll tune in again for more content like this, inspiring, educational and engaging minus the BS! Peace ✌️
37:03 "The world would be a lot better place if we were a lot like amanda." ❤❤❤All the best wishes for you Amanda. I am deeply impressed. Greetings from germany.
Cancer is a derangement of glucose metabolism. HIIT probably helps remission. Look up Warburg Effect. And many of us, myself included, on occasion sit around thinking about how we probably just can't do [fill-in-the-blank], or simply doubting ourselves, and here is Amanda, rockin' it. An inspiration seriously to everyone.
May the Grace of God ✨ continue to shine upon you 🌟 as you inspire, motivate, and conquer your dreams through resilience and determination 💪🏾. God bless you abundantly 🙏🏾❤!
Love this video and watch Amanda a lot. Not sure I agree with saying the only difference between ppl who beat it and ppl who don't is the mind. Bit sad to hear that part. But the rest is a beautiful video and truly inspiring 🎉

Been in awe of Jesus Christ nobody else.

BPN media is killing it. Nick keep searching out athletes and stories like this. AMANDA you are incredible!
My goodness she’s so mentally strong, you can tell she was in a lot of pain but she said “I’m just going to have to do it” this is inspiring.
She's a total bad ass. And the film, you guys? Are you kidding me? It's fucking stellar. Amanda is so inspiring. As long as there are people like her in the world, I have faith in humanity.

„WHO is Amanda amongst all this chaos?“ Gave me chills. The search for the who we really are begins with running.
Truly one of the best running documentary films ever made. I know I will watch this again when I need inspiration. Amanda truly is unbreakable!
The world needs Amanda Kimiko && her story. ❤️❤️ Beautifully done !
This is one of the best documentaries that I have ever watched. It’s eye opening❤ It offers such a profound insight in life and living❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤
Amanda is one of my main inspirations in life right now. Love BPN and what they stand for. Thank you for sharing her story so well! Absolutely amazing

You just became my new Hero. Thank you Amanda for sharing your story ❤
