Amy found the perfect clone to an expensive perfume that is so much cheaper…you need this in your life!! Today’s Quote: “A dream written down without a date becomes a goal. A goal broken down into steps becomes a plan. A plan backed by action becomes reality.” - Unknown

Since “trying is cool” Amy & Kat share a thread from @MikeFoster2000 called: “SOME THOUGHTS ON THOSE WHO TRY.” Such a good reminder to keep showing up for yourself even if something you put out into the world fails. Speaking of trying things…Amy’s going to do another LIVE podcast event. The date and location will be announced this coming Friday 1/20.

The word OVERFLOW was brought to Amy’s attention from a listener named Ashley Beck that emailed in. Here’s an excerpt: 

“I finally listened to your live podcast and wanted to share some hopefully encouraging words about what I walked away with after listening.  The word "overflow" kept coming to me as I was listening.  Each person who spoke: you, Kat, Cristi, all had something to offer from your own life that was able to overflow to those listening. That concept of overflow is such a hopeful one that constantly gives me encouragement when I'm going through difficult times. I guess it's the idea that our pain is not in vain -- that our pain will be redeemed not only in ourselves, but also in the lives of others. We are able to share and at the very least help someone not feel alone, and at the best, help them find their own redemption and healing.”

This got Amy & Kat talking about what we all can overflow into someone else’s life this coming year. How can you use part of your story to help someone else? And while Ashley was referring to the LIVE podcast - this doesn’t have to be a public thing - just as a way to overflow into your family, your friends, someone else in your life that might need your story, your encouragement, your hope.

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.
