Your Place of Pain Will Be Your Place of Rain: How God Uses Brokenness to Birth Breakthrough
Welcome 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. It’s not just one big, lightning-bolt moment—it’s the accumulation of small, daily decisions. From helping a neighbor to encouraging your own kids, you’re already walking in purpose more than you think.
And if you’re tired of playing small? Amy gives you permission (and a loving push) to stop holding back. Because you have one life. And the world needs all of it.
If this episode spoke to you, share it with a friend who might be questioning their purpose. Your story, your pain, and your healing journey might be the exact roadmap someone else is looking for.
