Pinkett and the Brain is led by Amaya Johnson, Awareness Architect. PB is the culmination of Amaya’s intellect, philosophy, and lived experience—a practice shaped by years of experimentation, refinement, and embodiment across academia, parenthood, and creation.

Amaya is a student, mother, and founder. She is a Junior Philosophy major and Ronald E. McNair Scholar at the University of Maryland, College Park. Her academic journey has moved through psychology, physics, and kinesiology before landing in philosophy. Philosophy provided the broadest container to explore the profound topics that have always captivated her: consciousness, justice, quantum physics, and how humans create the worlds they inhabit. She is charting a path toward a dual PhD/JD, where she plans to examine legal theory through the combined lenses of metaphysics, quantum physics, and indigenous philosophy.

Balancing rigorous scholarship with motherhood and business-building, Amaya brings a perspective that is both intellectual and deeply lived. Her work honors the wisdom of her grandfather, who inspired her to claim her share of this world, and reflects her commitment to cultivating presence, intention, and sustainable success.

Over the years, Amaya has channeled her awareness and creativity into many forms of work — from graphic design and organization to building brands and systems. Each stage was a layer of experience, sharpening her perspective and refining her practice. Every iteration circled back to the same core inquiry: how does awareness shape reality? Pinkett and the Brain is the distillation of that journey into its most intentional expression. It is not about doing the work for others, but about creating a living container where awareness is clarified, aligned, and embodied.

Awareness Architecture isn’t about quick fixes, borrowed formulas, or outsourced blueprints. It is about sovereignty — refining what already works, dissolving what doesn’t, and amplifying what serves. PB is for those who want to move faster and clearer in embodying what they already know to be true. It is for the aware, the disciplined, the intentional. For those who wear many roles and want to do it all without overdoing it. For those who are ready to trust their own signal, inhabit their consciousness fully, and let life reflect it

If you are ready to honor your alignment and cultivate your awareness — the door is open.
