I want to ask you a powerful question today: Whose report will you believe?

Because the truth is the report you believe is shaping your life.

Your thoughts.Your expectations.Your actions.Your future.

And so many people are living under reports that were never meant to define them.

Maybe it’s what your family said.Maybe it’s what your past looks like.Maybe it’s the circumstances you’re walking through right now.

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.

What 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.

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.

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?

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.

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.

Have 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?

What 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.

Have 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.

Hey 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?

What does it take to lead with integrity when the entire culture around you is shifting?

Leadership, Faith, and Staying the Course | A Conversation with Coach Tanya Warren

In this powerful and deeply personal conversation, Amy sits down with Coach Tanya Warren — the winningest coach in UNI women’s basketball history — to talk about what really builds lasting success.

Not just on the court.
But in life.

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.

Have 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.

Have you ever felt like God asked you to give up something that felt good… even godly? In this vulnerable and heartfelt episode, Amy shares a deeply personal story about wrestling with obedience, identity, and the unexpected cost of peace.

From navigating a hard decision with a faith-filled yes, to processing the emotions that come with letting go of something you love, Amy invites you into a conversation we don’t often hear: What if your next season with God requires a step of surrender before a step of clarity?

In this episode of You Are More, Amy delivers a powerful message straight from the pulpit—raw, real, and fully surrendered. Sharing her sermon live from her church, Amy invites listeners into a deeper conversation about what it really looks like to follow God's call when it’s hard, when you’re stretched, and when the growth feels invisible.

She shares her own wrestle with feeling like she’s outgrown the old season but hasn’t yet stepped into the new one—and how that uncomfortable space is often where God does His best work. From thoughts on obedience in the mundane to not giving up on the vision He’s placed in your heart, this message is for anyone navigating a silent season or a spiritual shift.

ave 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.

Hey 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.

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”?
