The Story Behind

Meet Our Founders

Meet Our Founders

Meet Jennifer Morrison, successful actor, filmmaker and producer, & Jon Katz, serial entrepreneur, the co-founders of Amia. Both intimately familiar with the challenges of living with migraine, their personal journeys led to the creation of Amia. For Jen, navigating ocular migraine amidst the demands of a successful acting career fueled the urgency for relief since 2011. Meanwhile, Jon's lifelong battle with cluster migraine, starting from the tender age of 7 in 1994, reached a critical point in January 2023 when he endured a staggering 12 attacks in just 3 weeks.

Our Mission

Our Mission

Together, Jennifer and Jon are on a mission to empower others living with migraine. They understand firsthand the debilitating effects of this condition and the transformative power of adopting a clean, trigger-free diet. Their stories, each finding some relief through dietary modifications, are a testament to holistic measures and reclaiming control over one's life. Through education, support, and shared experiences, they aim to help others navigate their own migraine journeys.

By raising awareness and promoting the benefits of avoiding common dietary triggers, they hope to inspire a community of people who are not only surviving but thriving despite their condition.

Our Mission

The inspiration for Amia came from Jon's battle with migraine that began at the tender age of seven. His breakthrough came when he discovered the book Heal Your Headache by Dr. David Buchholz back in 2023. The book's insights into dietary modifications and food triggers resonated deeply with Jon prompting him to make significant changes to his diet. The results were remarkable; a 50% reduction in his migraine frequency. Through the ups and downs of his migraine journey, Jon has learned the profound impact that dietary choices can have on managing and reducing the frequency of attacks. His commitment to a trigger-free diet has become a cornerstone of his daily routine, bringing stability and relief to his life.
