Advertise on podcast: Feeling Things with Amy & Kat

Amy and Kat open the inbox!! One listener explains how she and her husband protected Christmas morning for their family, and the fun tradition of turning the Christmas tree into a New Year’s tree. A mom of two, now pregnant with her third, shares her sunny-side-up birth story and encourages Kat as a new mom. Another listener, inspired by Amy’s hormone journey, asks what kind of doctor to look for. And a mom whose son was born nine weeks early with a heart defect opens up about the heavy feelings after birth, the guilt that followed, and why the postpartum version of you deserves grace.

Amy is feeling proud and excited, while Kat is just plain grateful. After their feelings of the day, Amy shares a wild follow-up: when Kat’s near-abduction story aired on the Bobby Bones Show, a listener called in to say the exact same parking-lot scheme happened to her days later. Amy questions whether Mercury in retrograde is real after she and Kat had completely opposite days, and they go through common thoughts that feel helpful but might be overthinking in disguise. Plus, a listener’s tip for running a book club, a check-in on this month’s read, a book recommendation for expecting moms, and the signs you own too much stuff and it’s time to declutter.   An Evening with Jenna Bush Hager and Lucy Tan: LINK TO BUY TICKETS     Other Things Discussed: AMY'S HOLIDAY CUPS  KAT'S HOLIDAY CUPS  BYRNA SELF-DEFENSE KINETIC LAUNCHER  BYRNA MAX PROJECTILES  MY FRIENDS BOOK  BIRTH VIBES BY JEN HAMILTON   Get some Feeling Things merch by clicking HERE!

Leanne is back to continue exploring this complex topic of worthiness, diving into the paradox of feeling worthy when you DON'T feel worthy. Once again Leanne talks about the 5 Blocks to God’s love, originally introduced as a 'Self-Imaging' formula, and how these blocks, if not addressed, can hinder your experience of love and worthiness. This episode focuses on the fourth ingredient and God block: Self-Esteem, where she teaches about understanding Self-Esteem as more than just confidence, but a profound interplay of "knowing, liking, and trusting" yourself. She explores this concept that most people are walking around very untrusting of themselves, because somewhere along the lines they stopped believing themselves when they made promises to themselves. And this causes them to not only STOP trusting themselves, but to also LOSE respect for themselves, believing themselves less and less the NEXT time they commit to something. And THAT is what damages your Self-Esteem. She takes you on a deep-dive of how to repair your integrity if you've gotten into the habit of making promises to yourself without actual follow-through. She also shows you how to invite God into this conversation to explore the power of promise-keeping when it comes to restoring your Self-Esteem. Leanne encourages and invites you to create a new definition of Self-Esteem, only this time around taking your "spiritual integrity" into account and seeking God's perspective on getting back in alignment with yourself WHILE you embrace the concept of taking radical ownership of your own Self-Image...and the spiritual journey towards God-inspired integrity.

Have you ever considered giving your pain a voice?  For most of us, this doesn’t even register. We think about curing our pain, side-stepping our pain, solving our pain, fixing our pain or numbing our pain. Anything but allowing and listening to our pain.  Let me ask you this: what if your pain is trying to speak to you?   What if it has an important message to share?  What if there is wisdom buried within your pain that you need in order to take your next step, to understand yourself or the world more fully, or to truly heal?  If you believed that, would you lean in and listen?

This week on Soul Sessions, Amanda Rieger Green maps out the energies of November, a month she says will feel intense, especially if you’re empathic, intuitive, or energetically sensitive. She explains the clear split between the first half of the month, which feels inward and loud, and the second half, when expression, clarity, and forward momentum return. Astrologically, Mercury in Scorpio and Venus in Libra are both retrograde until the 13th. Numerologically, November is a 3 universal month inside a 12 (11 + 1), a “waiting period” code of 1, 2, and 3 that asks you to zoom out and see reality as it is. Amanda breaks the month down into three practical steps: take command of the voice in your head with your “I am,” notice how your body language and communication match your words, and get out of your head by coloring with your non-dominant hand. She also previews the Gemini full moon around the 24th and 25th, the second Uranus-Pluto trine of five between now and 2028, and why this is the month to simplify, listen, breathe, and summon your resolve.

A friend starts telling you a story you’ve already heard, and it’s a long one. Do you speak up, or smile and let her finish? Amy and Kat debate what to do in that awkward moment, then share a simple gossip check-in Amy did with her son, Stevenson. Is what you’re about to say true, kind, and necessary? Turns out the guide might be even more helpful for adults. Plus, a little dating life talk, your sweet feedback on the episodes with Chase, a quick newsletter update for those who’ve been missing it, and a voicemail from a listener in corporate sales who pushes back on our over-apologizing episode. Her take? Authority plus humility equals strength, and sometimes a simple “I’m sorry” means more than a “thank you.” Here is the EXACT Gossip Check-In That Amy Did With Stevenson: → Is what I’m about to say true, kind, and necessary? → Why am I sharing this? Am I trying to feel connected, fit in, or get a reaction? → How would I feel if it were about me? Would I want someone else to say this about me? → Is this getting someone help? If someone is unsafe, tell a trusted adult instead of gossiping. → Am I sharing to entertain or judge? If to make someone look bad or get attention, it’s gossip.   Have a question for us?

Amy and Kat are back in the studio together again, and it felt so good to have her here! She’s sharing baby Zoey’s birth story, and it didn’t go the way she planned. Kat hoped for a natural birth, but after more than 20 hours of labor, the doctors made the tough call to have a C-section. She opens up about how scary it was, and about the emotions that came after, including the honest “what have we done?” moment once they were home. There were tears, and if you’re a new mom navigating the baby blues, we hope her words remind you that you’re not alone. Plus, a listener asks how Kat handled visitors and boundaries after Zoey was born (yes, including family), we answer some of your labor questions, like whether everyone shakes during labor and how cervix checks actually work, and we explain why Rh incompatibility matters most in a second pregnancy.

She also opens up about the pressure that comes with being a hit songwriter, how she knows when an idea is worth chasing, and why some of the simplest songs can be the hardest to write. Plus, Jessie Jo talks about launching her own label, working closely with artists, and how her approach to songwriting has changed after hundreds of cuts. Watch The BobbyCast on Netflix!

Leanne is back to continue exploring this complex topic of worthiness, diving into the paradox of feeling worthy when you DON'T feel worthy. Once again Leanne talks about the 5 Blocks to God’s love, originally introduced as a 'Self-Imaging' formula, and how these blocks, if not addressed, can hinder your experience of love and worthiness. This time however, the spotlight turns to the third ingredient and God Block: Self-Worth, as Leanne emphasizes the importance of understanding what you're "weighing and measuring" to define your own worth. She shares personal experiences of tying self-worth SOLELY to external factors like appearance, relationships, and achievement, and how goal-setting can be great, but if that's the ONLY place you are finding your worth, that's where the trouble lies. Leanne encourages and invites you to create a new definition of self-worth, only this time around taking a "spiritual currency" into account and seeking God's perspective on your divine worth, teaching you how to embrace the concept of taking radical ownership of your own Self-Image... while inviting God into the process as your co-pilot and divine partner.

There is the story you want to tell with your life. And then there is the one that is asking to be told, through you.    The one that’s asking to be told through you:    Probably terrifies you Challenges your sense of yourself Makes you feel out of control  Calls you past your old conception of yourself Might feel embarrassing  Overwhelms you when you think about it   And yet the story that’s trying to come through you is the reason you came here.    Are you brave enough to allow it to unfold?  Marianne Williamson A Course in Miracles Aligned, Messy Action Host: Ally Fallon // @allyfallon // allisonfallon.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on Soul Sessions, Amanda Rieger Green explores how sensitive and intelligent our physical bodies are, and how the “rules of engagement” for health and healing have shifted in the years since COVID. She opens with reflective questions to help you set an honest baseline: What has your body been telling you lately? Do you push through exhaustion more often than not? When did you last give yourself real time to recover? Amanda shares her personal experience of how mind-body tools that once worked easily stopped working the same way, and why the dense physical body is often the last part of us to catch up when our consciousness shifts. She talks about the symptoms many people are noticing, including fatigue, anxiety, inflammation, skin flare-ups, and swelling, and how to use them as intuitive data, including asking “is this mine?” about what your body is processing. Amanda also emphasizes the balance between spiritual awareness and medical discernment, and shares a few of the practices and practitioners that have supported her own healing. A grounding, honest episode on treating your one body as the brilliant, intuitive vehicle it is.   The Chakra Series:  Root Chakra: Is It Anxiety or Activation?

We kick things off with an email from a husband who’s made it through the early stages of therapy and is facing something people rarely talk about: the guilt and regret that can come with new self-awareness. Amy and Kat walk through the emotional J-curve of growth, why feeling worse can actually be a sign you’re healing, and how to take responsibility without sinking into shame. Next up, a big-hearted mom dealing with a high-conflict co-parenting situation and the fear of heading back to court asks what so many of us quietly wonder: How do I stay composed when I tend to cry under pressure? Kat shares ways to ground yourself when your nervous system tries to take the wheel. Plus, we talk about avoiding anger, a book recommendation (Theo of Golden), and more. Have a question for us?

Chase is filling in again while Kat soaks up more time with baby Zoey! Amy confesses to a little white lie: a self-proclaimed “tycoon” cornered her in a hotel shop while she was buying hairspray, and the only way out was a boyfriend she doesn’t have. So, is it okay to fake a significant other to escape a conversation? Plus, the four phrases people with remarkable minds say all the time (and whether we’ve ever heard Lunchbox say any of them), Amy’s newest pet peeve (please stop taking 45 pictures when someone hands you their phone!), how to secretly read anyone, and eight simple marriage maintenance habits that keep couples connected, from the six-second kiss to the weekly check-in.

In this powerful conversation, Angie Smith gets honest about the pressure so many of us feel to perform, prove, perfect, and become whoever we think the room needs us to be. And often, the identities we wear so confidently—“the achiever,” “the responsible one,” “the perfectionist,” “the strong one”—may have less to do with who we truly are and more to do with how we learned to feel safe, accepted, and enough. As a bestselling author, Bible teacher, speaker, and developmental psychologist, Angie brings a unique perspective to the intersection of psychology, identity, and faith. In her new book, Into the Deep: Finding Relief from Pressure, Exhaustion, and the Need to Perform in a Shallow World, she invites us to move beyond surface-level survival and discover what happens when we stop trying to earn an identity that God says was never ours to earn in the first place. In this episode, we explore the intersection of neuroscience and faith, why affirmations like “I am enough” don't always change what we believe deep down, and how perfectionism, people-pleasing, comparison, impostor syndrome, and control can become strategies for protecting ourselves from rejection or shame. We also talk about what happens when our theology says we're loved, chosen, and worthy, but our self-image tells a completely different story. We bring the conversation into food and body, the exhausting belief that changing something externally will finally make us feel different internally, and what it looks like to stop using our bodies, achievements, relationships, or productivity as evidence of our worth. Angie also shares what it means to trust God when trusting Him doesn't guarantee the outcome we want—and how to recognize when we've turned even our relationship with God into another place to perform. This isn't about becoming a shinier, better, more impressive version of yourself. It's about questioning the patterns and identities you've built around performance, approval, and control—and discovering who you already are when you stop trying to become whoever the room needs you to be.
