Feeling Things with Amy & Kat

Today’s quote is from NEEDTOBREATHE’s song “Dreams”:   That's why I throw my bones in the rhythm Sink my teeth in a good time Whole lot more than a feeling I could lose That's I why I brace myself every minute Trying to hold on tight for a good ride Fools like us are only here to prove You make dreams come true   Amy asks the question: when it comes to accomplishing the dreams in your life, where...

OUTWEIGH: Nowadays fat has a bad rap. We hate it. We fear it. We name it. We blame it. We shame it. Some people will do whatever they can to destroy it and eliminate its "wrath" from their lives. But who ever said that fat was ugly, or something to be ashamed of? And what if you could work WITH it (learn how to actually take care of it on a nervous system level so you can actually get rid of it if...

Have you heard of Seven Primal Questions by Mike Foster? Amy's sister, Cristi, told her to get this book and take the quiz. Amy did and ended up with "Am I Wanted?" as her primal question (same as her sister!) Cristi highly recommends this book as part of a journey towards understanding yourself more and expressing yourself from a more authentic place. Am I safe?  Am I secure?  Am I loved?  Am I w...

Ideas include:   G...

Leanne is kicking off a new series based on her own experiences navigating "The Paradox of Worthiness" (as she calls it). As in, how do you feel worthy when you don't feel worthy? There is so much talk nowadays about self-love and worthiness, but the crucial question remains: How do we truly embrace it if all we’ve ever known is the opposite? How do you suddenly feel worthy if all you’ve ever know...

OUTWEIGH: Amy and Leanne are back for PART 5 of the 5-part Self-Image series called "Do You Know Your True Value and Worth?", where they take a deep dive into the concept of "Self Endorsement".  It's not practical or even possible for anyone (specially women) to completely disregard what others think about them. However, what is possible is learning to value your own opinion of yourself (even just...

Rewind about 4 years ago to when my dear friend Ketric Newell told me something I DID NOT want to hear... "Leanne your Self-Imaging curriculum is GREAT, but I don't want you to teach it to the teenage girls at The Teen Dream Center....YET." Ugggh! The nerve of him to tell me it wasn't ready --  or that I wasn't ready! (Or whatever I perceived him to be saying to me.) But now I can see that he had...

OUTWEIGH: Amy and Leanne are back for PART 4 of the 5-part Self-Image series called "Do You Know Your True Value and Worth?", where they take a deep dive into the concept of "Self Worth".  It's crucial to understand what you are "weighing" and measuring in your life, as well as the currency by which you are judging yourself --- especially if you are constantly "weighing" yourself based on external...

If you could sit down with the moms of entertainers that you love & admire...what would you ask them? Amy's guest today gets to do just that.

Kat also shares some wedding updates...like her new exciting...

OUTWEIGH: Amy and Leanne are back for PART 3 of the 5-part Self-Image series called "Do You Know Your True Value and Worth?", where they take a deep dive into the concept of "Self Esteem", which revolves around the "know, like, and trust" factor of yourself.

Amy first learned of the "snail stuff" she puts on her face from her go-to face girl, Keri ( @thenashvillebeautygirl ) and ever since she's been obsessed.

OUTWEIGH: Amy and Leanne are back for PART 2 of the 5-part Self-Image series called "Do You Know Your True Value and Worth?", where they take a deep dive into the concept of "Self Care", which  (as you'll learn) is so much more than a "manicures and bubble baths" conversation. Amy and Leanne give a perspective on Self Care that extends beyond physical health and includes the mental, emotional, soc...

Amy talks to Haley about a recent terrorization at her home by teenagers in her neighborhood. They had shirts covering their faces in an effort to remain anonymous, but they messed with the wrong house because Haley is an enneagram 8. She was not going to let this go until she tracked down who these kids were. She called 911, talked to the police & put a campaign up on her social media. In a f...

Today's episode revolves around a post that one of our listeners, Ashley Beck, put up about how the worst of us can show up so easily online.

OUTWEIGH: Amy and Leanne are here for PART 1 of the 5-part Self-Image series called "Do You Know Your True Value and Worth?", where they take a deep dive into the concept of "Self Acceptance".
