Episodes

  1. ep. 94: why I have to speak out (and why you should, too)

    We need to speak out, and speak out NOW. Because people’s lives are at stake. Because families and the well being of children are at stake. Because our communities and their ability to function are at stake. Because our very way of life, the freedoms we enjoy, our ability to have a say in...

  2. ep: 93: I'm unclenching (and you can, too)

    What unconscious thoughts and beliefs are you feeding yourself that make your body brace and defend itself? And how could the opposite of those beliefs be true? How could you be safe and taken care of and flowing with the process of life, even when you fear you aren’t?...

  3. ep. 92: transforming anger and fear through exhale

    How does the quiet power of love overcome cruelty and hatred? Through your exhale. https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  4. ep. 91: 12 weeks to change

    What if the thing that’s giving you the biggest headache right now could be significantly changed, transformed, or eliminated 12 weeks from now? https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  5. ep. 90: in the here and now

    Want to feel alive? It's closer to you than you think. It's here in this present moment. https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected] Somatic Experiencing

  6. ep. 89: four tools for balance in tough times

    It’s pretty clear we’re not going to fix the problems we’re facing anytime soon. But this life is still yours to live every day. So how can you live it in the best possible way right now? https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected] Heather Cox Richardson 5calls.org Tangle...

  7. ep. 88: how to take care of you

    How do you find your balance? How do you know that you’re in a place inside yourself where you feel safe, where you are meeting your own basic needs, and where you have energy left over to be a force for good in the world? https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected] Dr. Joe...

  9. ep. 86: be too much in 2025!

    Have you ever been told that you were ‘too much’? Join me in The Women's Room https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  10. ep. 85: a space for women

    How do we dismantle the patriarchy? We start by dismantling it in ourselves first. The Women's Room https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  11. ep. 84: just listen!

    Learning to listen - without negating, correcting, fixing, or solving - can change the world. It can change the world on a large scale, and it can change your world locally. And you know what? It can even change your internal world, because if we sometimes resist deeply listening to others, what...

  12. ep. 83: f**k being nice! be kind and honest instead.

    At my high school graduation, I was voted ‘most likely to succeed Mother Teresa’ by my class. I’m pretty sure it was because I was a nice girl. Not anymore! Join Community https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  13. ep. 82: you have to decide

    “Love has never been a popular movement. And no one's ever wanted, really, to be free. The world is held together, really it is held together, by the love and the passion of a very few people. Otherwise, of course, you can despair. Walk down the street of any city, any afternoon, and look around...

  14. ep. 81: the six types of courage

    I saw a meme the other day...a list called 'The Six Types of Courage' from The Academy of Art, Creativity & Consciousness. It was so beautiful - so spot on - that I wanted to share it with you and make the case for why courage is so valuable and necessary at this moment in time. The Six Types of...

  15. ep. 80: intersectionality and allyship

    If you care about human rights, equality and justice for all but wonder what you can do...this message is for you. https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected] Rashida Bonds Simone Seol

  16. ep. 79: heal yourself. heal your community.

    To heal yourself, you have to get quiet. You have to get in touch with how you’re feeling, and become aware of what you need in order to feel better. Find that resource - whatever it is - inside of yourself. And then take action by going out and offering it to others. Join my Community!...

  17. ep. 78: reclaiming the word 'resistance'

    I can think of no better outlet for my efforts right now than acts of love through resistance. And to be honest, I can think of nothing worse right now than to be silent; to be content with the unearned privileges and comforts I enjoy while others are being stripped of theirs, or have never had...

  18. ep. 77: the case for feeling your feelings

    From where I sit today, two days after our election, I believe that the emotions so many of us feel - the uncomfortable, difficult, hard emotions - are really valuable energy moving through. Let’s not ignore them. Let’s use them. Let’s honor their truth and wisdom so that we can move forward and...

  19. ep. 76: we're in this together

    So, my friend…it’s election day. How will it all shake out? I have no idea, and you probably don’t either. But I know that regardless of the outcome, we will be OK. https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  20. ep. 75: you have to believe it to see it

    Your belief in yourself…who you are and what you’re here to do…creates your reality. https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  21. ep. 74: preaching to myself

    Most often, change is messy, and it takes me longer than I want it to take. And I cycle through the same feelings of doubt, worry, self-criticism, and second-guessing myself that my clients feel. https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  22. ep. 73: tiny happy baby steps

    Authenticity is powerful. And the more you practice lining up with yourself and taking small, easy steps from that place, the more you fully inhabit the new version of yourself. And the more magnetic you are to people around you...including potential employers, future clients or customers, and...

  23. ep. 72: line up with yourself

    Alignment with your own truth - the truth of who you are - is the cornerstone to living a happy life. It’s essential to feeling fulfilled and satisfied with what you do. It’s THE biggest, most powerful factor in having a positive impact on the world around you. Authenticity is powerful. You know…

  24. ep. 71: the question to ask yourself

    When you're feeling like it's time for a change, there's one powerful question to ask yourself...before you do anything else, before you take action. https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  25. ep. 70: when you're bored with what you do

    Because most of us don’t make regular assessments - of happiness, satisfaction, and well-being - as we move through life, a feeling of boredom or apathy is worth unpacking and taking some time with. Your feelings didn’t appear overnight. There’s some part of you that has been neglected or...

  26. ep. 69: when what you get is not what you want

    Sometimes what you want is not what you actually get. And that's OK. It's OK for reality to be messy. Being able to sit with the complexity of your own life…when what you’ve got isn’t completely what you want…it’s a powerful place to be. work with me! email me! [email protected]

  27. ep: 68: that crazy voice inside of you

    Today I want to talk about something that we all experience. You, me, everyone! Whether we’re consciously aware of it or not. I want to talk about the almost-constant, often-crazy voice that is always talking to us. Michael Singer: the untethered soul Amy Briggs Coaching email me!...

  28. ep. 67: the true measure of strength

    'The true measure of strength is based on who you lift up, not who you beat down.' ~Kamala Harris https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  29. ep. 66: keeping your balance

    How cool would it be if you had a way to calm yourself down when you get flooded with stress and anxiety? Well, guess what? You can bring yourself back into balance, nervous system regulation, and well-being whenever you need to. It just takes a little know-how and practice. EFT/tapping video…

  30. ep. 65: getting back on track

    Taking a break from something because you just aren’t feeling it…that's OK. Let the desire come back on its own. If you give it space, it’ll probably come back stronger than ever. If it doesn’t, something new will come in its place. Trust yourself, and trust the process....

  31. ep. 64: I'm worth it

    You are worth it. Even if your goal scares you. Even if other people don’t get why it’s so important to you. If you have the dream, you are worth going after it. You’re worth putting in the work and giving it everything you’ve got. If you fail, you’re still worthy. In fact, you’re worthy of…

  32. ep. 63: hope

    I believe in hope. https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  33. ep. 62: do what scares you

    What do you long to do that scares you? Or that feels too difficult? Or that you think you might fail at? What’s stopping you from just doing it anyway? From trying and seeing what it’s all about? What would happen if you failed? What could you learn about yourself…how much more might you be...

  34. ep. 61: grieving what you've left behind

    Choosing something new - however right it feels - doesn’t mean it won’t hurt to release the old. https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  35. ep. 60: the risks of being yourself

    I love to promote being yourself. But I'm going to be honest: it's not always easy. And it’s not always going to be received well. There are real risks to being yourself. The risks are, in fact, WHY you feel some fear around changing. Let’s talk about them. https://www.amybriggscoach.com email…

  36. ep. 59: write it all down

    Today I want to give you a tool that I use when I feel out of sorts. Or when I have an issue that I really need to bring some resolution to. This tool is free, easy, and super effective. You can do it anywhere. All you need is a little bit of time, a pen and some paper (or your laptop, if you...

  37. ep. 58: motion is lotion

    Mental and emotional energy is a lot like physical energy. When we get caught up in the same ‘positions’...beliefs, thoughts, emotions, and stories that we tell ourselves, we are practicing a kind of viewpoint. A rigid viewpoint of ourselves, the world, and people in our lives. How dynamic and...

  38. ep. 57: the willingness to fall apart

    When I finally began working on my own mental and emotional stuff, I fell apart. Over and over again. In the presence of a practitioner who was there to catch me. Falling apart wasn’t fun, but there was always relief on the other side. Being willing to fall apart was necessary. Because it wasn’t...

  39. ep. 56: go slow to go fast

    In running AND in life, it's not how fast you go that will determine things. It's how little you slow down (or stop altogether), which is all about sustainability. It's finding that all-day pace and flowing with it, being present to all of your signals. That 'just-right' feeling is worth a lot....

  40. ep. 55: everything worth creating takes time

    If you find yourself waiting for what you want... I'm here to let you know that things taking time is very, very normal. Everything good that I've created in my life has taken time. It’s time to unshame time. https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  41. ep. 54: your own wisdom

    Knocking at the door of your own wisdom is a symbolic act. You’re turning back towards what you always knew, but just forgot for a while. You’re embracing what you had a long time ago, and never lost. You are intentionally bringing back a part of yourself that needs to have a say....

  42. ep. 53: why I don't like the word 'coach'

    I wish there were a word to express the depth of the work I do with people. I’m afraid that even if there were a perfect, elegant, eloquent word, it STILL wouldn’t be adequate. And since I haven’t yet figured out a new word to call myself, I reluctantly call myself a coach....

  43. ep. 52: everyone needs someone

    I believe the world would be a better place if everyone had access to a mental and emotional health professional. And I'm going to tell you why. https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  44. ep. 51: the fear of being nothing

    If striving for success drives you, the fear of not being successful can be truly terrifying. Feeling like nobody knows what you do, what you're capable of, or even worse…feeling like you're perceived as a fraud or a big fat nothing…that’s the dark underbelly of all of the striving....

  45. ep. 50: finding your WHY

    When it comes to reaching a goal, it’s not the inspired moments that are challenging. It’s when you don’t have any reason to believe you can get there. It’s when you get bad news, or something you’d hoped for doesn’t pan out. It’s when you have to pivot or tweak something. These are the moments...

  46. ep. 49: the #1 reason you feel stuck

    In a situation where the thing you’re after feels far away from where you actually are, your ability to hold your focus on your dream, your vision, your goal…it’s everything. https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  47. ep. 48: forward is a pace

    Keep moving forward. Even if it’s slow. Even if it’s painfully slow! Even if you sometimes have to take two steps backward. Moving forward means you’re making progress. Forward is a pace. https://www.amybriggscoach.com email me! [email protected]

  48. ep. 47: pain as opportunity

    That thing that is causing you some nagging pain right now might just be an opportunity to grow, to become stronger, to get even better at something. When you’re willing to tolerate some discomfort to grow beyond the pain, it opens up brand new possibilities for your life. Pain can be an...

  49. ep. 46: achieving the impossible

    Jasmin Paris just became the first woman in history to complete the infamous Barkley Marathons...a feat that most thought was impossible. What have you thought was YOUR impossible? What if it's not impossible at all? What if it could just be the biggest adventure of your life so far, and it’s...
