Amber Veronica Odhner was born in the great basin of Lake Ontario in 1987. She is an artist, creator, and an embodiment and imagination guide. She has studied and taught yoga, restorative yoga and Yoga Nidra for over a decade. She offers grounding and guidance on journeys of the spirit through practices of movement, deep rest, and shamanic ritual. Amber is in love with creating and holding space to open our imaginations, hear our inner wisdom, and facilitate self-discovery and connection.

Amber’s first language was painting, and creating art has been her primary mode of expression and connection. After studying painting in college she went on to found an ice cream company, Eat Me Ice Cream, that specialized in from-scratch, local ice cream inspired by the growing season of the Finger Lakes in NYS. That business journey lasted a decade and initiated her into all the facets of the business lifecycle: founding, funding, operating and exiting. Amber continued to nurture her passions while growing her company: maintaining an artist studio, and practicing and teaching yoga & meditation.

Amber completed Yoga trainings as a Registered Yoga Teacher 200 hr and Pranayama with Francois Raoult, Level 1 Rest & Renew with Judith Lasater, and Yoga Nidra with Tracee Stanley and Dr. Chanti Tacoronte-Perez. She continues to work with Robinette Kennedy learning and practicing from the Shamanic lineages of Tibet and Greece.

Since leaving her business Amber has used her business expertise to consult with small businesses to help them navigate growth, go to market strategies, and with project management. She is a fierce advocate for the success of small businesses. Small businesses are what make our communities vibrant, and having a thriving businesses requires skills that are learnable. She currently lives and works in Rochester, NY with her partner, son & dog Gus.
