    Train Your Mouth for Victory (Stop Letting Feelings Lead You)

    Send us Fan MailJoin The 6AM Club Bible Study! Bible Study: https://www.youaremore.com/bible-study Last week, we talked about casting your cares.This week, we’re taking it one step further—Because even when you’ve released the worry…there’s still something that can pull you right back into it:Your feelings. And I want to say something that might challenge you a little…Your feelings don’t get a vote.Now hear me—feelings are real.But they are not reliable leaders.Because if you live your life based on how you feel…you will constantly find yourself off track.“I don’t feel like doing this.”“I don’t feel capable.”“I don’t feel like anything is working.”And before you know it, those feelings start shaping your actions…and your actions start shaping your results.In this episode, I’m breaking down how to:Stop letting your feelings dictate your directionTrain your mouth to speak truth instead of emotionStay consistent even when nothing looks like it’s changingAnd walk through the “hallway” between where you are and where you’re goingBecause this is where most people quit.They do the right things…They say the right things…But when their feelings don’t immediately change—they assume nothing is working.And that’s where they lose momentum.The truth is—Your feelings are often the last thing to align.So you can’t wait for them. You have to lead them.You have to speak truth… even when you don’t feel it. You have to show up… even when you don’t see it. You have to stay consistent… even when it’s uncomfortable.Because the life you want is on the other side of that consistency.So this week, I want to challenge you—For the next 24 hours…Pay attention to every time you say: “I feel…”And instead of stopping there—replace it with truth.Because your words are training your life. And if you want to walk in victory…you have to start speaking like it 🤍Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comJoin The 6AM Club Bible Study!

    Why Worry Is Blocking Your Breakthrough

    Send us Fan MailWhat if the very thing you’re stressing about…is the exact thing blocking the breakthrough you’ve been praying for? I want you to really think about that.Join The 6 AM Club Bible Study! Bible Study: https://www.youaremore.com/bible-study Because in this episode, I’m talking about something that most of us struggle with—worry, control, and trying to make things happen in our own strength.And I had this moment recently where I caught myself doing exactly that—trying to figure it out, trying to push things forward, trying to make something happen.And I heard this simple truth: When you work, God rests.But when you rest… God goes to work.And everything shifted. Because so many times in life, we’re operating from the wrong position.We’re striving… instead of trusting.We’re controlling… instead of releasing.We’re praying for something… instead of living from it.In this episode, I break down:Why worry isn’t just an emotion—it’s a belief systemHow worry “kinks the flow” of what God is trying to do in your lifeThe difference between a performance mindset and a supply mindsetAnd how to actually practice casting your cares (and not picking them back up)Because here’s the truth…You can be doing all the right things—and still be blocking what God is trying to release.Not because He’s withholding…But because you’re gripping too tightly. There is a rhythm to grace. There is a flow to trust. And when you learn how to let go…you start to see things open up in ways you couldn’t have forced.So today, I want to challenge you: What are you trying to control right now?What are you carrying that was never yours to carry? Because the moment you release it…you make room for God to move.And what He does with itwill always be greater than what you could’ve done on your own 🤍Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comJoin The 6AM Club Bible Study!

    The Leadership Lens: How Your Perspective Shapes Your Life

    Send us Fan MailJoin The 6AM Club Bible Study! Bible Study: https://www.youaremore.com/bible-study Today, I want to talk about something that affects every single area of your life…How you see. Because how you see things isn’t just personal— it’s powerful.It shapes how you live, how you lead, and ultimately what your life becomes. In this episode, I break down one of the most important truths: The difference between winning and wandering often comes down to perspective.We look at the story of the twelve spies—ten saw giants and limitation, while two saw opportunity and possibility.They all saw the same thing… but they didn’t see it the same way. And that difference?It cost an entire generation 40 years.That’s how powerful your perspective is.Because the truth is—you don’t lose because of what’s in front of you. You lose because of how you see yourself in it.If you see yourself as small, you shrink.If you see yourself as incapable, you won’t act.But if you see yourself through the lens of faith…everything changes.And here’s what makes this even more important: The way you see doesn’t just affect you.It affects your family.Your kids.Your team.Your environment.People don’t just hear what you say—they absorb how you see.In this episode, I walk you through:Why your perspective is generationalHow identity shapes what you seeThe difference between a “grasshopper mindset” and a “giant slayer mindset”And how to shift your perspective through the lens of faithBecause you are not called to live small.You are not called to wander. You are called to overcome. And when you begin to see differently…you will start to live differently.So today, I want you to ask yourself—How am I seeing my life right now?Because your answer to that questionis shaping everything that comes next 🤍 Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comJoin The 6AM Club Bible Study!

    Win the Battle in Your Mind (Before It Shows Up in Your Life)

    Send us Fan MailJoin The 6AM Club Bible Study! Bible Study: https://www.youaremore.com/bible-study Over the last few weeks, we’ve talked about what to say… and what not to say.But today, I want to take it a step deeper.Because the real place you win in life?It’s not on the outside.It’s on the inside.In this episode, I’m talking about the power of your thoughts—and how the life you’re living right now is directly connected to what you’ve been agreeing with internally.Because here’s the truth:Not every thought that enters your mind belongs to you.And just because you think something… doesn’t mean it’s true.But the moment you agree with it?That’s when it starts to shape your life.That thought becomes a belief.That belief becomes your behavior.And that behavior becomes your reality.So if you’ve been feeling stuck, behind, overwhelmed, or like things just aren’t working out…We have to look at what you’ve been agreeing with.In this episode, I walk you through:How to recognize thoughts that don’t align with truthWhy you’re not responsible for every thought—but you are responsible for what you agree withHow to replace negative thoughts with truth (not just remove them)And how to become an active participant in your thought lifeBecause you don’t win in life by accident.You win by taking authority over what’s happening on the inside of you.Your thoughts shape your perspective.Your perspective shapes your actions.And your actions shape your life.So if you want something to change on the outside…Start on the inside.Take the thought.Replace it with truth.And step into alignment with who God says you are.Because you are not behind.You are not disqualified.And you are absolutely capable of walking out everything you’ve been called to do 🤍Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comJoin The 6AM Club Bible Study!

They’re always trying to pull your attention, distract your focus, and get you off purpose. And whatever has your focus… ultimately has your life.But we were never meant to carry it all.When you hold onto worry, anxiety, and fear—you stay stuck in it.But when you release it… something shifts.There is real power in casting.Not ignoring your situation.Not pretending it doesn’t exist.But intentionally saying—“God, I give this to You.”In this episode, I walk you through how to:Recognize the thoughts that are pulling you into fearReplace them with truthRehearse your track record with GodAnd take back your focus so you can stay aligned with your purposeBecause you cannot walk fully in what you’re called to do… while carrying the weight of everything you were never meant to hold.You are called to live with clarity.You are called to live with peace.And you are called to move forward without being consumed by worry.So today—whatever it is…Cast it 🤍Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comJoin The 6AM Club Bible Study!

    Led by Purpose, Not Fear: How to Follow God’s Assignment for Your Life with ReShonda Young

    Send us Fan MailJoin The 6AM Club Bible Study! Bible Study: https://www.youaremore.com/bible-study Have you ever felt like there’s more for your life… but you’re not quite sure what it is—or how to step into it?In this episode, I sit down with ReShonda Young, and I’ll tell you right now—this conversation is powerful.ReShonda is a serial entrepreneur, but more than that, she’s someone who truly lives led by purpose. And what I love most about her story is that she doesn’t move based on what makes sense—she moves based on what she feels called to do.From starting businesses out of her parents’ basement… to overcoming identity theft… to building multiple streams of income… her journey is marked by one thing: obedience.And it doesn’t stop there.She shares how one of the hardest seasons of her life—including a health diagnosis—became the very thing that positioned her into her next assignment. Through prayer, stillness, and being willing to listen, she found herself stepping into something she never would have planned on her own.Because that’s the truth about purpose—it doesn’t always follow your plan.It follows your willingness.We talk about what it really looks like to trust God when things don’t make sense, how to move forward even when you feel unqualified, and why fear is often the very thing standing between you and the life you’re called to live.If you’ve been overthinking, waiting, or feeling stuck… this episode is your reminder:You don’t have to have it all figured out.You just have to take the next step.Because God will meet you there.And you are more than capable of walking out everything He’s placed inside of you 🤍 Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comBible Study: https://www.youaremore.com/bible-study Free Download: 5 Steps to Win Through Adversity https://youaremorepodcast.com/store Social Media: Follow us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/youaremorepodcast  and Instagram https://www.instagram.com/amywienands/Email: [email protected] Minute By Minute:00:00 – Introduction + 6AM Bible Study Invite01:00 – Meet ReShonda Young: Entrepreneur + Visionary02:00 – The “4 for 40” Moment That Changed Everything03:00 – Starting Businesses from the Basement04:30 – Identity Theft + Overcoming Financial Setbacks06:00 – Closing on Her First Rental Property07:00 – The Power of Focus + Discipline08:30 – Building Multiple Income Streams09:30 – Saying Yes Before You’re Ready10:30 – Growth Through Hard Seasons11:30 – Following a Nudge Into Business (Popcorn Heaven)13:30 – Trusting God When Plans Shift15:00 – Why Entrepreneurs Must Act Quickly16:00 – The Reality of Business Ownership17:00 – When Success Stops Aligning With Your Values18:00 – Letting Go + Trusting God With the Outcome19:00 – Health Diagnosis + Asking “What’s the Purpose?”20:30 – Being Led Into the Next Assignment (T&K Store)22:00 – God’s Timing + Divine Alignment23:00 – Living on Assignment, Not a Life Plan24:30 – Faith Through Loss + Grief26:00 – Choosing Purpose in Pain28:00 – Why PurposeBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

    What NOT to Say If You Want to Move Forward in Life

    Send us Fan MailHave you ever had one of those seasons where it feels like you’re doing all the right things… but nothing is actually moving forward?Like you’re showing up, you’re trying, you’re putting in the effort—and still, it feels stuck? I want to challenge you with something today…What if it’s not your circumstances?What if it’s your words?In this episode, I’m breaking down some of the everyday phrases we say without even thinking—things like “I’m just…”, “nothing ever works for me”, or “I’ll try”—and how those words are actually working against you.Because those aren’t just casual statements… they’re agreements.And over time, they begin to shape how you see yourself, how you think, and ultimately what you experience.Your mind is always listening. It’s always looking for evidence to confirm what you’re saying. So when your language is full of limitation, fear, or defeat… your life will start to reflect that.But here’s the good news—you can shift it.You can reframe what you’re saying.You can take your power back.And you can begin to speak life, faith, and possibility over your future again.This episode is both a wake-up call and an invitation.An invitation to become more aware of what you’re saying…More intentional with your thoughts…And more aligned with the future you’re actually believing for.Because your breakthrough might be closer than you think…You just have to stop speaking against it 🤍 Hit play now to learn what NOT to say anymore if you want to level up! Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comFree Download: 5 Steps to Win Through AdversitySocial Media: Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/youaremorepodcast  and Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amywienands/ Email: [email protected] Minute By Minute:00:00 – What Not to Say If You Want to Move Forward00:40 – Why Your Words Are Sabotaging Your Future01:10 – The Problem With Saying “I’m Just…”02:00 – “That’s Just How I Am” Is Keeping You Stuck02:50 – You Will Eat the Fruit of Your Words03:15 – “Nothing Ever Works for Me” Mindset Trap04:10 – Reframing Negative Statements Into Growth05:00 – Why “I’ll Try” Is a Quiet Form of Quitting06:10 – The Power of Commitment in Your Language06:40 – Complaining vs. Creating Your Reality07:40 – Rehearsing Problems vs. Rehearsing Possibility08:20 – Faith Is an Agreement You Make With Your Words09:10 – Choosing Faith Over Fear in Everyday Speech10:00 – The Energy You Carry Into Every Room10:40 – Speaking Life Over Your Future11:00 – How Your Words Shape Your Kids’ Mindset12:30 – Eliminating Lack-Based Language13:10 – Open vs. Closed Language (Power vs. Limitation)13:30 – Words You Must Eliminate Starting Today14:30 – Training Your Brain Through Gratitude15:20 – How to Ask Better Questions (Even With Your Kids)16:10 – Your Mind Is Always ListeningBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

    10 Things I Say (Outloud) Every Day That Changed My Life and Walk with God

    Send us Fan MailWhat if the way you start your day is shaping everything that follows?In this episode, Amy breaks down one of the most powerful (and overlooked) habits you can build: speaking life over yourself. Not just thinking positive thoughts—but actually declaring truth out loud. Because your words aren’t neutral… they’re creative. They’re shaping your mindset, your expectations, and ultimately your results.Amy walks through the exact declarations she speaks daily—simple but powerful truths rooted in faith, identity, and purpose. From gratitude and alignment to health, provision, and favor, these aren’t just phrases… they’re a framework for living intentionally and staying grounded no matter what life throws your way.She also gets real about something most people struggle with: inconsistency. It’s easy to say the right things in the morning—but what about when pressure hits? When the bill comes in? When things don’t go your way? This episode is a reminder that your words have to be aligned not just in quiet moments—but in real life.You’ll also hear how Amy is training her kids to live this way, building habits of gratitude and awareness early on. Because what you appreciate grows. What you focus on expands. And what you repeatedly say… becomes the lens you see life through.If you’ve been feeling stuck, discouraged, or just out of alignment, this episode is your reset. A simple, practical way to take back control of your day—and start speaking a different future into existence.Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comFree Download: 5 Steps to Win Through AdversitySocial Media: Follow us on Facebook and InstagramEmail: [email protected] Minute By Minute:00:00 – Why your words matter more than you think01:00 – Starting your day with gratitude02:00 – “My steps are ordered” & walking in alignment03:00 – Speaking health, strength, and identity04:00 – Renewing your mind and your mindset daily05:00 – “Christ in me” & overcoming fear and anxiety06:00 – Speaking opportunity and open doors07:00 – Why your words fight against negativity and doubt08:00 – The danger of canceling your own words09:00 – Training your mind to look for good10:00 – Teaching gratitude and mindset to your kids11:00 – The power of blessing your life daily12:00 – Life and death are in your words13:00 – Final encouragement: speak life and move forwardBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

    When You’ve Done Everything… Pray Yet Again

    Send us Fan MailHave you ever felt like you've done everything you know to do… and nothing changes?You’ve prayed.You’ve worked.You’ve tried every solution you can think of.Yet the situation keeps showing up in your life day after day.In this powerful episode, Amy shares a deeply personal story about walking through nearly 20 years of chronic back pain and the lessons she learned about persistence, faith, and refusing to quit.Sometimes the biggest breakthroughs in life don’t happen quickly. They come through seasons where you keep showing up, keep believing, and keep doing the right things—even when there’s no visible evidence that anything is changing.Amy explores the biblical principle of “pray yet again.” Just like Elijah prayed again for rain, and the woman with the issue of blood pursued healing for twelve years, many of the most powerful breakthroughs in life come after long seasons of persistence.The truth is, the most meaningful things in life rarely happen overnight. They are developed in the dark seasons—when no one is watching, when the pressure is high, and when quitting would be easier than continuing.But something powerful is happening in those moments.Character is being built.Faith is being strengthened.And the foundation for your future is being formed.If you're facing a challenge that hasn't shifted yet—whether it's health, relationships, finances, or purpose—this episode will remind you that your story isn't over.Sometimes the breakthrough comes one prayer later, one step later, one moment later.So whatever you're facing right now…Pray yet again.Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comFree Download: 5 Steps to Win Through AdversitySocial Media: Follow us on Facebook and InstagramEmail: [email protected] Minute By Minute:00:00 – When you’ve prayed and nothing seems to change00:40 – Amy’s 20-year struggle with chronic back pain01:50 – Trying every solution: chiropractors, supplements, and prayer02:20 – The Bible principle: “Pray yet again”03:05 – Discovering celery juice and unexpected healing04:05 – Ask, seek, knock: persistence in faith04:50 – The problems that keep showing up in life05:35 – Why the most important things require persistence06:10 – When everyday life becomes difficult07:00 – The woman with the issue of blood: pursuing breakthrough07:45 – Why the greatest things are built in the dark08:35 – What persistence develops inside of you09:05 – Your latter days can be better than your former days10:00 – Speaking faith and declaring God’s promises10:55 – The truth about “overnight success”11:30 – There is a set time when everything shifts12:05 – Encouraging yourself when no one else can13:05 – You and God are a majority14:00 – Wrestling seasons and being close to breakthrough14:55 – Guarding your heart from bitterness and cynicism15:35 – Keep your heart right, your mouth right, and keep showing up16:30 – Your expectation will not be cut offBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

    What to Do When Life Shows Up: Staying Steady When Everything Shifts

    Send us Fan MailHey friends, it’s Amy. Today’s episode is a real one, because it’s about what to do when life shows up. You know what I mean — when your day doesn’t go according to plan, when a curve ball hits, when everything feels out of rhythm, and you’re trying to hold it together while still doing what you’re called to do.I’m recording this after a whirlwind emergency trip to Florida. We spent an insane amount of time in the car, got my parents back to Iowa, and it really made me think: how do you stay steady when life feels out of control?Here’s one of the biggest tools I’ve used: disciplines.When life is chaotic, routine becomes an anchor. And I saw it in real time — the day I kept my morning routine, I could handle an 16–18 hour travel day with way more ease. The day I didn’t? I felt myself spiraling.But then I go deeper — what do you do when you are doing the right things… and you’re still not seeing results?You’re eating healthy, but the numbers don’t change.You’re working hard, but the business isn’t growing.You’re trying in your marriage, but it still feels stuck.You’re creating, but nobody is clapping.That’s where the real work happens.Because the goal isn’t just the outcome — it’s who you’re becoming in the process. Mental toughness. Spiritual strength. Endurance. Work ethic. Stability. A muscle that can flex without a cheering squad.This episode is a reminder that resistance is often a signpost — not to stop — but to keep going. And if you’re tempted to quit, I want you to hear me: the golden life is built in the “show up anyway” seasons.Keep doing the thing.Your future self will thank you.🔑 Key TakeawaysRoutine stabilizes you when life feels chaotic.Discipline matters most when motivation disappears.If you’re not seeing results yet, ask: Who am I becoming?Resistance can be a sign you’re on the right track.Do what others won’t do if you want results others don’t have.Serving others pulls you out of self-focus and back into purpose.You’re never “too young” or “too old” to fulfill your assignment.“Overnight success” is usually years of unseen discipline.Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comFree Download: 5 Steps to Win Through AdversitySocial Media: Follow us on Facebook and InstagramEmail: [email protected] Minute By Minute:00:00 – What to do when life shows up (and everything changes fast)01:00 – The Florida emergency trip + curveballs you didn’t plan for01:45 – Why routines stabilize you when life feels out of control02:40 – What happens when you don’t keep your routine (spiraling)03:30 – Shifting perspective + practicing gratitude in real time04:10 – What to do when you’re doing everything right… and nothing changes05:00 – “Steadfast patient endurance” (why it’s the actual key)06:10 – Showing up when no one’s clapping07:00 – Technical issues + why resistance can mean “someone needs this”08:10 – What falls off your life in the midnight hours of discipline09:00 – “Most of life you do alone” (you + God)09:45 – Amy’s early real estate discipline story (calling every Sunday)10:35 – “Sunday is gold, Monday is old”11:10 – Why emotions aren’t your friend if you want a big life12:00 – Showing up anyway (Bible study example)12:45 – It’s not just abBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

    Your WHY Will Carry You Through Anything!

    Send us Fan MailHey guys,Today’s episode is one that I didn’t even fully plan — it was born out of a walk around a track, watching people, thinking about life, thinking about attitude, thinking about purpose.And I want to ask you something right out of the gate:Who’s waiting for you on the other side of your obedience?Because here’s what I know — one of the biggest predictors of life expectancy isn’t diet.It’s not exercise.It’s not even genetics.It’s purpose.It’s having a why.It’s having something that pulls you out of bed in the morning because someone needs you to show up.In this episode, I share the powerful story of Viktor Frankl — a Holocaust survivor who lost everything. His manuscript. His freedom. His family. His name. And yet, he discovered something that can’t be taken from any human being:The freedom to choose your attitude in any given circumstance.You can’t control what happens to you.But you can always control how you respond.And I contrast that with real-life moments I’ve witnessed — people who’ve walked through immense pain yet carry light… and others who seemingly “have it all” but live in constant complaint.The difference?Attitude.Purpose.Gratitude.We talk about:Why complaining is a public declaration of defeatHow gratitude literally rewires your perspectiveThe danger of “give-up-itis”Why storms are seasonal, not permanentHow your purpose acts as drag power to pull you forwardAnd how an unexamined life leads to frustrationAnd I’ll tell you this…If you’re walking through hell right now — this episode is for you.Because storms always end.But bitterness can last a lifetime if you let it.You are needed.Your perspective matters.And someone is waiting on the other side of your obedience.Tie your kite string to your why — and let it pull you forward.Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comFree Download: 5 Steps to Win Through AdversitySocial Media: Follow us on Facebook and InstagramEmail: [email protected] Minute By Minute:00:00 – The real predictor of longevity: purpose01:30 – Attitude makes the difference in how people endure pain02:20 – “Quit complaining” and what it really reveals03:10 – A life lived on purpose until the very end04:15 – Viktor Frankl and the decision that changed everything05:30 – Honor your father and mother: the visa decision06:20 – “Give-up-itis” inside concentration camps07:10 – He who has a why can endure almost any how08:00 – Rewriting a future inside a nightmare09:00 – “What’s waiting for you on the outside?”10:15 – Why the world is waiting for your unique DNA11:10 – 12 million lives changed by one man’s pain12:10 – The last human freedom: choosing your attitude13:20 – Gratitude as a daily discipline14:00 – Foster’s attitude shift moment in the car15:30 – You can’t control events — only your response16:15 – If you’re walking through hell, shift your lens17:15 – Everything that shows up is here to evolve you18:00 – An unexamined life is a frustrated life19:00 – Tie your kite string to your why20:00 – Who’s waiting on the other side of your obedience?Be intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

    Why You’re SO Tired: Checking Your Alignment Score

    Send us Fan MailHave you ever felt completely worn out, uninspired, or exhausted… but you couldn’t quite explain why?In this episode, I want to talk about something I believe is at the root of so much burnout: misalignment. It’s not always that you’re doing too much — sometimes it’s that you’re doing too much of what doesn’t actually align with who you are.Alignment isn’t just a trendy word. Alignment is when your values match your calendar, your beliefs match your decisions, and your faith matches your actions. When those things line up, there may still be hard work, but there’s also joy, peace, and internal fulfillment. When they don’t, exhaustion shows up fast.I share how I’ve personally had to recalibrate throughout my career — stepping off boards, saying no to good things that didn’t feed my soul, and learning that all change initially feels like loss. But staying misaligned costs far more: your energy, your peace, your momentum, and eventually your health.One of the biggest indicators of alignment isn’t excitement — it’s peace. You can be walking through something challenging and still know you’re in the right lane. Misalignment, on the other hand, shows up as irritation, restlessness, and feeling off without knowing why.In this episode, I challenge you to do an alignment check:Is your calendar aligned with what truly matters to you?Are you spending time with people who reflect your values?Are you honoring who you are becoming — not just who you used to be?Alignment doesn’t require burning your life down. It’s built through small, intentional steps. Saying no. Making adjustments. Choosing discipline. Getting quiet enough to ask where your soul feels the most alive.There’s never been a more important time to tune out the noise and live authentically. When you live aligned, the right people find you, your peace returns, and your purpose becomes clearer.Because the truth is this:There is nothing more fulfilling than living in alignment with who you were created to be.Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comFree Download: 5 Steps to Win Through AdversitySocial Media: Follow us on Facebook and InstagramEmail: [email protected] Minute By Minute:00:00 – Why exhaustion isn’t always about doing too much01:00 – What alignment actually means02:10 – How misalignment shows up as burnout03:20 – Looking at your calendar honestly04:25 – Why good things can still drain you05:30 – All change initially feels like loss06:40 – Authenticity and living aligned07:50 – The car alignment analogy09:00 – The biggest indicator of alignment: peace10:20 – You don’t need to blow your life up11:40 – Small steps into alignment13:00 – Finding where your soul feels most alive14:45 – Alignment looks different for everyone16:10 – Why recalibration is necessary over time17:40 – Walking in endurance without losing yourself18:45 – Final encouragement: living aligned on purposeBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

    Don’t Quit Now: What Resistance Is Really Trying to Tell You

    Send us Fan MailHave you ever hit a wall so hard it made you question everything?That was me just a few days ago. I had spent hours—days, really—pouring into a Faith Forward workbook for our upcoming Thrive event. It was beautiful, meaningful… and then, in an instant, gone. The file corrupted. Everything I had worked on was lost.I’ll be honest—my first response wasn’t holy. I cried. I gave myself a pity party. I even tried to talk myself out of doing the manual at all.But deep down, I knew better.In this episode, I’m sharing the full behind-the-scenes of what that moment taught me. I’ll walk you through the resistance I faced, the emotions I had to fight through, and the power of pressing on—when everything in me wanted to quit.I’m here to remind you: resistance is not a stop sign—it’s often a signpost that you’re on the right track. Whether it’s your business, your marriage, your calling, or your next big leap… if the resistance is strong, so is the impact waiting on the other side.I pray this episode gives you the fuel you need to keep going. To rebuild. To trust.

    Ignite Your Confidence, Expectation, and Growth In 2026!

    Send us Fan MailHey friends — it’s Amy.Today’s episode is a powerful conversation about igniting something inside of you — your confidence, your expectation, and your willingness to grow.Because if we’re honest, most people don’t lack potential…They lack expectation.They lack confidence.And they’ve gotten a little too comfortable staying where they are.In this episode, I’m talking about why confidence isn’t something you wait to feel — it’s something you activate. Expectation works the same way. What you anticipate, you experience. And growth? Growth always asks you to step outside of what feels safe before it ever feels rewarding.We dive into the tug-of-war every human feels between certainty and growth. We want stability — but we also crave movement. And when we choose comfort for too long, life starts to feel tight… like a coat that no longer fits, yet we keep putting it on anyway.If you’ve felt restless, stretched, or aware that something needs to change — that’s not failure. That’s awareness. And awareness is the beginning of transformation.This episode will challenge you to: • Raise your internal standard • Stop repeating habits that no longer serve you • Expect more — and act like it • Commit to growth, even when it feels uncomfortable2026 doesn’t need more hype.It needs intentional decisions.My hope is that today’s episode helps you stop negotiating with fear and start moving forward with clarity, courage, and conviction.You’re not behind.You’re not stuck.You’re just being invited to grow.Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comFree Download: 5 Steps to Win Through AdversitySocial Media: Follow us on Facebook and InstagramEmail: [email protected] Minute By Minute:00:00 – Igniting confidence, expectation, and growth for a new year02:20 – Why most people want change but don’t experience it05:15 – Confidence is activated, not discovered08:10 – Expectation: the invisible force shaping your life11:30 – Certainty vs. growth: why comfort can quietly cost you15:00 – When life starts to feel tight, not peaceful18:25 – Why discomfort often signals growth21:40 – Releasing habits that no longer fit who you’re becoming25:10 – Raising your internal standard28:30 – Making a commitment to grow in 202631:00 – Final encouragement and mindset shiftBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

    Write the Vision. Commit. Move: How to Possess Your Promises in 2026

    Send us Fan MailGET YOUR TICKETS NOW! THRIVE in 2026 - Women's Event: https://www.youaremore.com Hey guys — welcome to 2026.I don’t know about you, but something about this year feels different to me. Not just another fresh start… but a moment. A line in the sand. A decision point.So today, I want to ask you a simple but powerful question:What does December 2026 need to look like for you to honestly say, “Wow… that was the most epic year of my life”?Because here’s the truth — I’ve asked myself that question for the last few years. And if I’m being completely honest? While there was growth… while there was movement… I didn’t accomplish what I knew I was capable of.And I had to get real with myself.This episode is about what it’s actually going to take to possess — not wish for — your dreams in 2026.I talk about why hoping isn’t enough anymore. Why vision without action leads to frustration. And why this year is going to require radical commitment, not comfort.We talk about:Why you must see the vision, not casually think about itWhy clarity creates movement — and confusion keeps you stuckWhy continuing the same thoughts and habits guarantees the same lifeHow comfort, certainty, and growth are constantly in tensionWhy your kids don’t just need your words — they need your exampleHow stacking small wins creates momentum that changes everythingI also share personal stories — from watching my dad work third shift while building a business, to realizing how fast time moves when my kids just turned 11.This is not about hustling harder.This is about deciding — once and for all — that you are done pushing your dreams down the road.2026 doesn’t need to be louder.It needs to be intentional.If you’ve felt emotionally thin… worn out… or like the last season took more than it gave — you are not alone. But this year can be different.And it starts with a decision.🎯 KEY TAKEAWAYSVision must be written and revisited dailyRadical commitment beats casual consistencyAction creates momentum — not motivationComfort will always compete with growthYour future self is depending on today’s decisionStacking small wins creates winning identityGod wants to partner with you — not watch from the sidelinesEpisode Minute By Minute:00:00 Welcome to 2026 + Thrive Conference Invitation01:05 The Question That Defines Your Year02:10 Why the Last Few Years Didn’t Move the Needle03:15 Vision Without Action Is Frustration04:30 Radical Commitment vs. Casual Hoping06:00 Why Doing the Same Things Produces the Same Life07:20 Comfort, Certainty, and Growth Explained08:35 Why Growth Feels Uncomfortable (and Necessary)09:50 The Foundry Story: What Risk Really Looks Like11:10 “But What If You Succeed?”12:30 Why Your Kids Need to See You Dream13:55 Stacking Wins and Building Momentum15:10 God as Your Senior Partner16:40 Declaring 2026 a Year of Possession17:50 Final Charge + Event InvitationBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

THRIVE in 2026 - Women's Event: https://www.youaremore.com Hey friends — today’s episode is a heart-to-heart, and honestly, it’s something I’ve been sitting with deeply myself.As we head into the end of the year, I keep thinking about how fast time moves. Weeks blur together. Life gets busy. We do the same things over and over… and then wonder why nothing really changes.So today, I want to talk to you about one thing: 👉 Action.Because here’s the truth — your life will not change unless you take a step you’ve never taken before.I share in this episode about a situation I prayed over for years. I did everything “right.” I hoped. I waited. I believed. And yet… nothing shifted. Until one day I realized something simple but powerful:Action creates movement.And movement creates momentum.Taking action is scary. It stirs fear. It brings up questions like: What will people think? What if this doesn’t work? What if I fail?But you’re one choice away from a completely different future.And most of the time, that future doesn’t look dramatically different on the outside — it just feels different on the inside.In this episode, we talk about:Why thinking the same thoughts year after year keeps you stuckHow you can literally act your way into a new version of yourselfWhy imagination isn’t “woo-woo” — it’s a God-given toolHow to use vision, writing, and reflection to move the needle forwardWhy regret is heavier than fear — and how to avoid itHow one small, scary step a day compounds into a transformed lifeI also share why I believe so deeply that we weren’t created to play small. You are not just your job. You are not just your role. You are not boxed into what life has looked like so far.There is more in you.There is more for you.And it starts with deciding you matter enough to move.As you listen, I want you to ask yourself:What is one action step I can take — today — toward the life I want?Your future self will thank you for it.✨ KEY TAKEAWAYSYou are one decision away from a different futureAction creates ripple effects — waiting does notFear is often confirmation that you’re stepping into growthImagination is a tool for vision, not escapismRegret weighs more than discomfortSmall, consistent action beats big, delayed intentionWho you’re becoming in the process matters as much as the outcomeConnect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comFree Download: 5 Steps to Win Through AdversitySocial Media: Follow us on Facebook and InstagramEmail: [email protected] Minute By Minute:00:00 – Welcome + why this conversation matters01:10 – Why life doesn’t change without action02:20 – Praying, waiting, and realizing something had to shift03:30 – Action creates momentum04:45 – Why so many people stay stuck year after year06:00 – Acting your way into a new version of yourself07:30 – Fear, opinions, and doing it anyway09:00 – Imagination, vision, and thinking differently10:30 – Writing it down and getting clear12:00 – Regret vs. risk: which one costs more13:30 – One small action step a day15:00 – Encouragement for the season you’re in16:30 – Final challeBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

    Stress Is Hijacking Your Hormones: How to Heal Your Body and Balance Fertility Naturally with Dr. Stephanie Gray

    Send us Fan MailGET YOUR TICKETS NOW! THRIVE in 2026 - Women's Event: https://www.youaremore.comHey friend 💛 — it’s Amy, and today’s episode is such a special one because I got to sit down with the amazing Dr. Stephanie Gray. She is a natural health doctor who has such a gift for helping women understand their bodies instead of fighting against them.We talked about sleep, stress, hormones, infertility, burnout, and why so many women feel like they’re doing “all the right things” but still feel exhausted, wired, and overwhelmed.Dr. Gray explained how stress is one of the biggest hormone disruptors — especially how cortisol and progesterone fight against each other in the body.

    How Thankfulness Rewires Your Brain and Changes Your Life

    Send us Fan MailGET YOUR TICKETS NOW! THRIVE in 2026 - Women's Event: https://www.youaremore.comGratitude is often treated like a trendy phrase — something people say without fully understanding its power. In this episode, Amy breaks down why gratitude isn’t just a mindset, but a real, science-backed tool that can transform your brain, your body, and your relationships. She shares how thankfulness rewires your neural pathways, lowers stress, and brings peace even in the middle of chaos.Amy walks listeners through why negative thinking can trap the brain into searching for more problems, while gratitude trains the mind to look for hope, opportunity, and joy. She explains how thankfulness actually calms the nervous system, lowers cortisol, and shifts you out of fight-or-flight mode — making it a survival tool, not just a spiritual one.The episode also dives into the power of gratitude in relationships. Amy shares how appreciation builds trust, strengthens connection, and changes the way others respond to you. She even talks about how your words over your own body and health matter more than you realize, impacting sleep, immunity, and physical well-being.Finally, Amy challenges listeners to see gratitude as a discipline — not a feeling. Through personal stories, parenting habits, and practical steps, she teaches how thankfulness can be trained daily and passed to the next generation.This episode is a reminder that gratitude isn’t weakness — it’s a weapon.Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comFree Download: 5 Steps to Win Through AdversitySocial Media: Follow us on Facebook and InstagramEmail: [email protected] Minute By Minute:00:00 – Is Gratitude Just a Trendy Phrase?00:45 – Why Thanksgiving Resets the Mind01:30 – Pie Day & Practicing Thankfulness as a Team02:20 – Gratitude Rewires the Brain03:10 – Why Complaining Is Dangerous03:55 – Gratitude & Neuroplasticity Explained04:40 – Gratitude Calms the Nervous System05:30 – Walking Through Stress with Thankfulness06:20 – Gratitude in Relationships07:10 – Gratitude and Physical Health08:05 – Speaking Life Over Your Body09:00 – How Gratitude Aligns You With Abundance10:00 – The Two Things You Can Control11:10 – Training Kids to Think Gratefully12:10 – Rewiring Habits in Real Life13:10 – Teaching the Next Generation14:00 – Thrive Event + Closing BlessingBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

    How to Walk in Unshakable God-Confidence (Not Self-Confidence) with April Osteen Simons

    Send us Fan MailIn this week’s episode, I sit down with someone whose life and legacy have deeply shaped my own faith journey — April Osteen Simons. Like her brother Joel, April brings an incredible blend of wisdom, humor, storytelling, and Holy-Spirit fire as she walks us through the confidence factor that truly changes everything.April opens up about the life-altering season when her mother, Dodie, received a terminal diagnosis. As a teenager, April stood in the doorway as her parents prayed heaven down, physically watched her mom stand on the Word of God, and witnessed firsthand what it means to “flip the script” with God’s promises. That moment marked her forever — and it’s part of why she cannot be talked out of miracles today.We dive into the battle of the mind, the discipline of speaking the Word over your circumstances, and why confidence isn’t arrogance — it’s alignment with who God created you to be. April shares practical, powerful ways to rebuild confidence, from opening the curtains each morning to rehearsing your victories to speaking life over your own reflection. Her reminders are simple but profound: You were made for pressure. You are built to withstand. You carry something great.We also explore the relationship between loving yourself and loving others, the danger of speaking death over your identity, and how your confidence unlocks your calling. April’s words will remind you that your uniqueness is not a liability — it’s your divine assignment.If you’ve been walking through a dark season, battling discouragement, or feeling unsure of your purpose, this conversation will breathe hope back into your soul. As April says, “Get God’s Word in you until God’s Word gets in you.” This episode is your invitation to do just that.Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comFree Download: 5 Steps to Win Through AdversitySocial Media: Follow us on Facebook and InstagramEmail: [email protected] Minute By Minute:00:00 – When your breakthrough begins with a sound01:00 – Amy’s story of singleness, loneliness & faith04:00 – Refusing to stare at barrenness06:00 – “Sing, O barren” — using your voice as a weapon07:00 – Mountaintop faith vs. valley faith08:00 – What God taught Amy in her delayed seasons10:00 – The confidence factor: loving yourself deeply11:00 – How uniqueness becomes your gift12:00 – Self-talk, identity, and words that shape your future13:00 – “Say Not”: why you must stop speaking against yourself14:30 – How to rebuild confidence after loss or setback16:00 – The link between confidence & purpose18:00 – Confidence as a weapon for influence and impact19:00 – The power of affirmations and speaking lifeBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

It’s knowing whose you are and walking like it.You’ll learn how to strengthen your inner confidence through three simple steps:Guard your words.

    Is God Even Listening?? How To Praise Your Way Through Every Battle and Valley

    Send us Fan MailHave you ever felt like your prayers are bouncing off the ceiling? Like you’re crying out to God, but heaven feels silent? I’ve been there — in those seasons where it feels barren, heavy, and like nothing’s moving.But friend, here’s what I’ve learned: God is never silent. He’s speaking — even when we can’t hear it clearly. And sometimes, the greatest act of faith you can make is to praise your way through the valley.🎵 “Sing, O barren woman…”That verse has always hit me. It doesn’t say, “Sing after you get your breakthrough.” It says, “Sing in the barrenness.” In other words, worship right where you are — even when nothing looks like it’s working.Your song in the middle of the battle does something powerful. It shifts the atmosphere. It reminds your heart that God is faithful, even when life feels hard. Praise isn’t about denying the struggle — it’s about declaring God’s goodness in spite of it.🔥 Worship Is WarfareI’ve learned that praise is one of the most powerful weapons we have. When we worship, we’re not just singing songs — we’re shifting spiritual realities.So many of us talk about our problems instead of speaking to them. The Bible says to speak to the mountain. Don’t just describe how tall it is — tell it to move. Speak life into your situation.When we open our mouths in worship, fear has to flee. Confusion lifts. Peace returns. And we begin to remember that the same God who showed up before… will show up again.🌱 Keep Praising, Even in the WaitingSometimes we think breakthrough means the end of pain — but breakthrough starts when we choose to praise in the middle of it.If you’re walking through a hard season right now, I just want to remind you: God sees you. He hears you. He’s working behind the scenes, even when it doesn’t feel like it.So lift your eyes. Lift your voice. Praise your way through every valley. Because praise doesn’t just move God — it changes you.🎧 Hit play and listen now to be reminded that even in silence, even in struggle, God is near. He’s faithful. And your praise is paving the way for your breakthrough.Episode Minute By Minute:00:00 – Is God even listening? Finding faith in silence03:25 – “Sing, O barren woman”: Why praise comes before breakthrough07:50 – Worship as warfare: Praise that shifts the atmosphere12:15 – Speak to the mountain, not about it16:40 – How to stay anchored when God feels far19:55 – Final encouragement: God hears you — keep singingBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

    Emotions Are Not Your Friend: Why Winners Keep Showing Up and Quitters Never Win

    Send us Fan MailDo you ever start something with fire and excitement — a new business, a fitness plan, a book, a podcast — only to lose steam a few weeks in? You’re not alone. Most people hit that wall, and when they do, they let emotions take the wheel. They quit. And yet, here’s the truth: quitters never win, and winners never quit.In this episode, we’re tackling one of the biggest reasons people fail to follow through — their feelings. We’ll talk about why emotions are often the enemy of progress, how to push past them, and the daily habits and mindsets that will keep you showing up long after motivation fades.🎯 Why Most People Quit (And How to Stop the Cycle)Every January, millions of people start something new. A health journey. A business. A financial goal. And every February, most of them have stopped. The reason isn’t lack of talent, intelligence, or opportunity — it’s that they let their feelings dictate their actions.Emotions are powerful, but they’re also inconsistent. One day you feel inspired; the next, tired and unmotivated. If you only show up when you feel like it, you’ll never build momentum. The winners of the world don’t have fewer negative emotions — they’ve just learned how to bench them.🔒 Guard Your Dreams (And Your Energy)Another trap many people fall into? Announcing their plans too soon. When we tell everyone about our new goals, we get a quick dopamine hit — but we also leak energy. Every time we talk about the dream instead of doing the work, we make it easier to quit.Instead, keep some goals to yourself. Protect them until they’re strong enough to stand. And when those inevitable days come when your feelings say, “Not today,” choose discipline over emotion.🧗‍♂️ Hitting the Wall Is Part of the JourneyEveryone who’s ever accomplished anything significant has faced moments when quitting felt easier. From world-class leaders to everyday entrepreneurs, every success story is full of chapters where the emotions screamed “Stop!” and they kept going anyway.It’s in those moments — when you’re exhausted, discouraged, or convinced you’re failing — that greatness is forged. As Amy says, hitting the wall is what separates the “ain’ts” from the greats. It’s normal, and it’s part of the process.🔥 Focus on the Mission, Not the MoodThe key to pushing past your feelings is to anchor yourself to a bigger mission. Why are you doing this? Who is counting on you to succeed? What future version of you will thank you for not quitting?When you have a clear why, it’s easier to override temporary emotions with long-term purpose. That’s what keeps you moving when the motivation is gone, the feedback is silent, and the results aren’t visible yet.✅ Keep Showing Up — One Step at a TimeHere’s the truth: momentum doesn’t come from one massive leap. It’s built one small action at a time — one decision to show up, one workout, one email, one step. And each small action shifts how you feel.Action changes emotion. It creates energy. And when you keep showing up — even on the hard days — you eventually cross the line that most people never reach.💡 Final Thought: Your feelings aren’t always your friends, but discipline, purpose, and consistency will never betray you. Keep showing up. Push past the wall. Don’t let temporary emotions sabotage a future that’s waiting for you on the other side of perseverance.Episode Minute By Minute:00:00 – Why emotions can’t lead the way03:12 – Motivation fades, discipline stays07:45 – Showing up when it’s hard12:10 – Turning consistency into momentum16:35 – Winners keep going, Be intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

    Faith Over Fear: How to Take Authority Over Your Thoughts and Win the Battle Within

    Send us Fan MailWhat would your life look like if fear didn’t have a say? If the loudest voice in your mind was faith — not doubt, not anxiety, not what ifs — but the steady confidence that God is who He says He is and will do what He’s promised?In this episode of You Are More, Amy dives into one of the most important battles we face: the fight between faith and fear. Every decision, every dream, every step forward comes down to which one we choose to feed. And the good news is, you get to choose.🧠 The Battle Starts in Your MindThe enemy’s favorite battleground is not the world around you — it’s the space between your ears. Fear often shows up disguised as wisdom or logic, convincing you to play small and stay safe. But when we let those thoughts run unchecked, they shape how we live.Amy shares how to identify when fear is taking over the narrative and how to start replacing those thoughts with God’s truth. Taking every thought captive and making it obedient to Christ isn’t just a nice verse — it’s a daily discipline that leads to peace, clarity, and strength.🙌 How to Flip the NarrativeThe Bible calls us to renew our minds, and that begins with replacing fear-based thinking with faith-based declarations. When you catch yourself spiraling into doubt or “what if,” pause and speak God’s promises over your situation.Amy gives practical tools you can use right now:Speak Scripture out loud to shift your perspective.Focus on God’s character and past faithfulness.Replace fearful language with bold, faith-filled declarations.Each time you do, you’re building a new mental muscle — one that will carry you through the next challenge with confidence.🌱 Small Steps That Build Big FaithFaith isn’t built overnight — it’s built one small step at a time. Amy reminds us that progress often looks ordinary: sending an email, starting a conversation, writing the first page of that book. But those small acts create momentum, and momentum builds belief.Even when you don’t feel ready, keep showing up. Keep taking the next step. And watch how God meets you in motion.🌟 You Were Created for MoreAt the heart of this message is one powerful truth: you were made for impact. God placed unique gifts and purpose inside you, and fear is the only thing standing in the way. When you start living from a place of faith, you stop shrinking back and start stepping into everything He’s prepared for you.It’s time to silence the lies, take authority over your thoughts, and walk boldly into the future with unshakable confidence.🎧 Final ThoughtsFear will always whisper what if, but faith will always declare God can. One keeps you stuck. The other propels you forward.Tune in to this episode of You Are More and learn how to:Take every thought captive and align it with God’s truthReplace fear with faith and anxiety with peaceBuild confidence through consistent, faith-filled actionStep boldly into the purpose God created you forConnect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comFree Download: 5 Steps to Win Through AdversitySocial Media: Follow us on Facebook and InstagramEmail: [email protected] Minute By Minute:00:00 – Welcome to You Are More: Why this topic matters now02:13 – The battlefield of the mind: Where fear really starts05:40 – How feBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

    Send us Fan MailCan you believe it’s almost September? The ninth month of the year, the start of the fourth quarter—and the perfect time for a reset. Maybe you started 2025 with big goals, but now you’re looking around wondering, “Where did the year go? I’m not even close to where I wanted to be.” Friend, I’ve got good news: there’s still time.In this episode, I’m sharing why September is one of my favorite times of year to get back on track and why waiting until January is a trap. We talk about the mindset shift of realizing no one is coming to save you—and why that’s actually empowering.

Think morning routines, daily disciplines, and honoring your own word—it’s not flashy, but it’s the stuff that moves mountains.If you’ve been stuck waiting for permission, doubting yourself, or holding off until “next year,” this is your reminder to take action today.

    Your Faith MATTERS! Feed It, Guard It, Speak It

    Send us Fan MailHey friends, Amy here! We’re officially in August and if you’re like me, you might’ve had moments this year where you thought, “I really expected more by now.” Maybe you’ve been pressing in, praying, hoping—and the change hasn’t shown up yet. If that’s you, I want to remind you of one powerful truth: your faith matters.This episode is a charge to your spirit. A reminder that faith is not passive—it’s a force. It’s the thing the enemy is actually after. He doesn’t care about your house, your job, or your finances. He’s after your belief—because your faith has the power to move mountains.I talk about how we build faith like a muscle—through the Word, through community, through what we feed our minds and speak from our mouths. I share how your friends of faith matter more than you think, and how easy it is to accidentally feed fear instead. But you don’t have to stay stuck. You can rise.We also get real about fiery seasons—the kind you barely survive. I share a powerful moment with a friend who walked through the fire and came out not even smelling like smoke. That’s the kind of legacy a life of faith leaves: one that ripples, transforms, and overcomes.So if your soul needs a reset, if your vision feels cloudy, or if fear has been too loud lately—press play. This is your reminder that you’re here for more, and that the same God who parted the seas lives in you.Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comFree Download: 5 Steps to Win Through AdversitySocial Media: Follow us on Facebook and InstagramEmail: [email protected] Minute By Minute:00:00 – What to do when life looks different than you expected01:00 – Why the enemy is after your faith, not your stuff02:30 – Faith is a force: it changes everything03:30 – Building your faith muscle starts in the Word05:00 – What to do when the Bible feels overwhelming06:00 – Speaking God’s promises over your situation07:00 – Fear vs. Faith: the two forces shaping your life08:30 – Everyone has fear—here’s how to confront it09:30 – The power of faith-filled friendships10:30 – Speak with a “see-through” mentality12:00 – The fire won’t consume you: the story of Shadrach, Meshach & Abednego13:00 – You’re on this earth to win14:30 – Speak to the mountain—don’t just report it16:00 – Fear paralyzes; faith mobilizes17:00 – Final encouragement: you’re made for moreBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

    Your Place of Pain Will Be Your Place of Rain: How God Uses Brokenness to Birth Breakthrough

    Send us Fan MailWelcome back to the podcast! In this powerful episode, we’re unpacking one of the most misunderstood truths about purpose: sometimes your deepest pain is actually pointing you straight toward your destiny. Amy gets real about how her hatred of lack and limitation didn’t just frustrate her—it lit a fire inside her. That fire eventually shaped her purpose and the calling she lives out every day.If you’ve ever felt disqualified because you don’t fit the mold, this episode will flip that belief on its head. Amy reminds us that it’s often the people who don’t “measure up” to worldly standards who are actually most equipped to create impact—because they’ve lived through what others are still struggling to overcome.She also dives into the idea that purpose is progressive.
