Feeling Things with Amy & Kat

If you feel like your nervous system is reacting instead of responding, you aren’t alone. We are currently moving through an unprecedented structural recalibration—a "purge" phase of evolution where our bodies, minds, and spirits may feel like they are revolting. In this energetic check-in, we discuss why the internal and external chaos you’re experiencing is actually a dismantli...

There are only two real responses to suffering: Push it away. Or say to it: “yes and thank you” There is no “right” way to suffer, and in fact, most of us have tried both responses many different times.  But once you discover what’s possible when you soften into suffering, you can’t unsee it. In today’s episode I’ll share an update on my health...
