This week on Couch Talks, Amy and Kat respond to a listener’s voicemail calling out a controversial comment from our recent episode on breast cancer awareness. Amy talks about feeling misunderstood and why curiosity matters more than judgment (yes, Kat quotes Ted Lasso). They also talk about The Pitt possibly being a copy of ER (Kat cried, Amy didn’t), and unpack the idea that “great artists steal.” It’s messy, open-hearted, and all about growing through discomfort.

Feeling Things with Amy & Kat is a podcast for anyone who’s ever had feelings—or wants to. Hosted by Amy Brown and therapist Kat Van Buren, this is a space where nothing is off-limits. From deep reflections on childhood to pop culture obsessions to what’s happening in the world, all feelings deserve a seat at the table—big, small, awkward, joyful, confusing, and everything in between. At its core, it’s real friends having real conversations about real feelings. Some episodes go deep, some stay light, but all are rooted in curiosity, honesty, and connection. In a world that moves fast, sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is pause... and feel things.

Nervous Firsts and The "Do You Work?" Dilemma (Couch Talks)

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/7416195a-f3f8-44e1-bab2-b40400b2ce74/transcript

Kat is feeling antsy for a getaway (and a Paradise binge), while Amy feels excited for her "More Whimsy, Less Worry" talk. Those are their feelings of the day and here’s what’s discussed in this episode:

- The 8 & 80 Rule: Amy shares that there are only  two people you should be living for. What would your 8-year-old self say about your silliness? And what is your 80-year-old self yelling at you to do right now?

- The Disrespect Trap: Are you accidentally teaching people that your time has no value or that your decisions need their approval? They break down the 4 ways we "train" people how to treat us and the specific scripts to use to take your power back.

- The 5 Levels of Listening: Are you actually tuned in, or are you just "waiting for your turn to talk"? They audit our listening habits from "Distracted" to "Hearing what’s unsaid."

- Cocktail Lessons: Why the White Russian is now a "no" for Amy & how it’s different from a Bushwacker!

- The Pillow Hack: Why we are all moving our pillows into the sunlight this week to kill bacteria and clear up our skin.
