The holidays have a way of holding joy and grief in the same breath.

In this Christmas edition, Amy sits down with her dear friend Daylon for a raw, honest conversation about what the holidays really look like as life gets longer, families get more complex, and relationships carry more history. This episode isn’t about perfection — it’s about choosing love, even when it’s hard.

They talk openly about loss, memories, strained family dynamics, political division at the dinner table, and the quiet weight many people carry into the holidays. From painful firsts — empty chairs, changed traditions, fractured families — to the intentional choice to build memories for the next generation, this conversation speaks straight to the heart.

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.

Hey friends — today’s episode is one of those messages that I pray meets you right where you are. Whether this season feels joyful, overwhelming, heavy, or a mix of all three… I want to remind you of something powerful:

You carry the ability to shift any atmosphere you walk into.
Not because you’re strong enough on your own — but because Christ in you, the hope of glory, lives inside you.

Hey 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.

Gratitude 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.

In 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.

Ever catch yourself saying, “I can’t,” “I’m not ready,” or “Maybe one day”?

Those two words — “say not” — are the difference between the life you’re living and the one you’re meant to step into.

In this week’s episode, Amy dives deep into what she calls the Confidence Factor — that unshakable belief that grows when you stop letting your emotions run the show and start walking in faith. She shares how the words you speak have creative power and how every “I can’t” is actually blocking your next breakthrough.

You know those people who just radiate purpose the moment you meet them? That’s exactly who Miah Youngblut is. She’s the founder of Move with Miah, a Pilates instructor, and a woman on a mission to help others move — not just their bodies, but their entire lives — forward.

In this episode, we dive deep into what it means to keep showing up when no one’s clapping, to trust God in the waiting, and to build discipline even when you don’t feel like it. Miah shares her journey from feeling stuck, inflamed, and uncertain in Florida to building a thriving Pilates brand and community in Iowa. Her story is one of faith, grit, and a willingness to take the next step even when it’s scary.

Sometimes, we’re waiting for God to move…
but He’s actually waiting for us to take the first step. 💥

In this powerful solo episode, Amy reminds us that faith is not passive—it’s active.
Breakthrough doesn’t happen while we sit still and overthink. It happens when we move forward, even when we don’t have all the answers.

Whether it’s your business, your health, or your relationships, this message will stir your spirit and remind you that miracles are unlocked through motion. God meets us in our obedience, not before it.

Have 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.

Do 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…..

What 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.

This episode comes from a heavy place in my heart.

When I heard the shocking news of Charlie Kirk’s shooting and also said goodbye to my dear friend Mike, the weight of grief, division, and loss felt overwhelming. And yet, in the middle of it, God whispered a reminder from 2 Chronicles: “If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray, I will heal their land.”

Do you ever feel stuck—frustrated with your circumstances, your career, or even your family life? You’re not alone. But here’s the truth: God didn’t just create you for heaven someday. He created you for a life of abundance, peace, and purpose right here on earth.

In this episode of You Are More, I’m going back to the basics. We talk about what it really means to know Jesus—not just as your Savior, but as the One who backs your success and desires for you to live whole, healthy, and prosperous. Prosperity isn’t just about money. It’s about wholeness. Nothing missing. Nothing broken.

Are you winning at work but losing at home? In today’s world of constant pings, buzzing watches, and never-ending to-do lists, it’s easier than ever to live distracted. But here’s the truth: our relationships are paying the price.

Can 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 heartfelt episode of You Are More, Amy welcomes her friend Lydia Gessner for a powerful conversation about grief, legacy, and faith after loss. Lydia recently experienced the unexpected passing of her dad—a man who left a profound impact on her life and walk with Jesus.

Hey friends—can you believe we’re already at the end of summer?! I know the transition into a new season can stir up all kinds of feelings—uncertainty, excitement, even disappointment. That’s why I wanted to slow things down in this episode and share something that has helped me over and over again:

“When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”

We dive into a powerful parable—the story of the Chinese farmer—and how it challenged me to stop labeling every moment as good or bad, and instead trust that maybe yes, maybe no, it’s all working for my good. 💫
