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.

    Soul Sessions: Stop Bypassing Your Emotions: Clear Your Heart & Reclaim Your Agency

    Do you want to clearly express who you are, process your feelings and emotions, and be able to engage with the world in a way that is grounded but also clear, meaningful, and purposeful? This week, we move from the fluid, emotional depths of the sacral into the Heart Chakra—the sacred bridge between our physical reality and our highest consciousness. Right now, we are collectively being asked to move from the "Human Doing" back into the "Human Being." In this episode of Soul Sessions, Amanda explores how the heart is far more than just a center for kindness; it is an electromagnetic powerhouse and the gateway to 5th Dimensional energy. When we clear the heart, we stop living from our conditioning and start living from our essence, allowing manifestation to click into place with multi-dimensional speed. This episode explores: The Bridge Between Worlds: Understanding the heart as the meeting place between your lower physical chakras and your upper spiritual centers. The Paradox of Expansion: Why touching your deepest pain and suppressed sadness is the exact key to experiencing infinite love and oneness. Human Being vs. Human Doing: Shifting from the "administration" of your life to the legacy of your soul. Why are you really here? The DNA of the Heart: The physical connection between the heart’s anatomy, your DNA, and how breathing into your chest clears the pineal gland to activate intuition. Breaking Time and Space: How to recognize those "glitch in the matrix" moments of pure bliss where the 5D frequency takes over. Clearing the Log Jam: How to identify ancestral, karmic, and genetic conditioning that manifests as tension in the ribs, lungs, and thoracic spine. The Witness Effect: The science of "Paying it Forward" and why witnessing kindness provides a bigger energetic spike than even receiving it. WORK WITH THIS EPISODE For the next 7 days, focus on the bridge of your Heart Chakra: The 4-Second Inhalation: Inhale deeply through your nose for 4 seconds. Feel your chest expand and visualize your spinal fluid traveling from your sacrum up into your brain, washing your pineal gland and clearing the "log jam." Body Awareness: Notice any tightness in your intercostal muscles (between the ribs), shoulder blades, or chest. When you feel tension, acknowledge the emotion behind it—whether it’s sadness or joy—without bypassing it. Acts of High Frequency: Perform one random act of kindness with "no strings attached." Notice how the energetic exchange shifts your frequency and the frequency of those who witness it. Visualize Emerald Green: During your morning routine, envision a vibrant green light (Jade or Emerald) emanating from your chest, acting as a signal to the field that you are open to receive and ready to lead from love. Reclaim your agency and authority by standing in your truth—whether that is the weight of sadness or the radiance of joy.  By refusing to bypass your emotions, you bridge the gap to the mystical and the otherworldly. Embrace your frequency, live it honestly, and watch how it transforms everything you touch! Additional Resources:  Ready to go deeper?

  2. What's God Got To Do With It? Why Your Teen Can’t Focus Anymore (The Dopamine Addiction No One’s Talking About) [Teenager Brain Series Part 3]

    What's God Got To Do With It? Why Your Teen Can’t Focus Anymore (The Dopamine Addiction No One’s Talking About) [Teenager Brain Series Part 3]

    In this episode, Leanne exposes the attention crisis that's affecting every single teenager right now—and reveals what social media platforms know about teen brains that most parents and educators don't. The average teen now spends between four and five hours a day on social media. And teens who spend three or more hours a day have double the risk of anxiety and depression. Heavily addicted younger teens show two to three times the risk of suicidal behavior. But it's not just about the time. It's about how their brain is interacting with the content. Every swipe, every like, every new video delivers a hit of dopamine—the "feel good" neurotransmitter. And over time, the teenage brain learns to crave that dopamine hit. It becomes addicted to the scroll. And when the scroll stops, the brain goes into withdrawal. Leanne breaks down the three major forces rewiring teenage brains: dopamine dysregulation, chronic distraction and the death of deep focus, and comparison culture that ties self-worth to external validation. But here's the good news: Dopamine dysregulation can be reversed. Attention can be retrained. And self-worth can be rebuilt from the inside out. Leanne shares powerful examples of what changes when students learn to notice the dopamine trap, separate their worth from their likes, and retrain their attention—so they're not slaves to the scroll anymore. Ready to bring these tools to your school or teen? Head over to TeenagerBrain.com to request a free sample lesson. You'll see exactly how the Teenager Brain curriculum works and test-drive a full lesson yourself. We're looking for our next 25 pilot schools for Fall 2026. This is a 4-week plug-and-play emotional fitness program that teaches students how to regulate their emotions, separate truth from lies, and build a self-image that lasts—without adding to your workload.

    Write Your Story: Listen to your life. She Is speaking.

    When you are in a situation that is uncomfortable or unwanted — a job, a relationship, a season of grief or pain — the tendency is to push that experience away.    You look for a way out. You look for a solution.  You look for a quick fix.  You look for an escape door.    But this event or experience has something it wants to show you. It is teaching you.  Picture this event in your life as a loving friend, leaning in to whisper something important. Something intimate. Something you might be afraid to hear… But something that will change your life forever.  Will you listen? Or will you plug your ears?

    Coffee Creamer, Dance Parties & Why the Small Stuff Is Actually Everything (Couch Talks)

    After sharing listener Taylor's incredible 300-day deployment update last week, she wrote in again with more details on what finding herself actually looked like, and it is the most practical and beautiful list. Her dad also sent in a sweet note about her, and we think that is just the sweetest thing ever. Taylor mentions "grace" in her update, which reminds Amy of the blog post her sister Cristi wrote about grace many years ago when they had a blog together. Amy reads the post inspired by their mom's death and a nearly empty bottle of soap called Pure Grace. Plus a listener named Amy from Fort Gibson, Oklahoma has had a reminder in her phone since August of 2025 to share her egg story, and she finally called in. And fun fact: babies apparently smile in the womb when their moms eat carrots and scowl when they eat kale, which honestly tracks. Get some Feeling Things merch by clicking HERE!

    How to Not Get Murdered, Walking in on Your Parents & The Chick-fil-a Protein Bar

    Amy is feeling curious about a couple of things, while Kat is feeling nostalgic and vindicated. Listeners weigh in on whether Amy should keep reading The Names and the opinions are split. Kat wonders if she can name her baby after herself, which feels weird, but men do it all the time! We learn that Amy walked in on her parents as a kid, which is a very unexpected fact being that it comes up during the ‘How to not get murdered by a serial killer’ part of this episode. Other things they chat about: customizing your own lipstick at Lip Lab, a Chick-Fil-a hack, the jello diet, Devil Wears Prada 2 and more! Get some Feeling Things merch by clicking HERE!

    Soul Sessions: May Energy Forecast: Why Your Limitations are Actually Instructions

    April felt like things were being ripped at the seams, but May 2026 brings a different kind of intensity. It is a month of deep embodiment, psychological complexity, and intuitive awakening. While the tone is softer than last month, it is far from simple. In this episode, we dive into the Universal 6 Month (in a 1 Year) and explore how to navigate three massive energetic themes: Reciprocity, Limitations, and Intuition. With Pluto stationing retrograde and Mars entering a harsh square with Pluto at the end of the month, May is a call to put on your own oxygen mask first so you can show up without resentment. In this forecast, we discuss: The Power of the 6 & 1 Numerology: Why personal responsibility is the key to your health and happiness this month. Astrology Deep Dive: Navigating the Scorpio Full Moon, Uranus in Gemini’s impact on your nervous system, and the "lay low" dates for the Mars-Pluto square (May 25–27). Relationship Discernment: How to identify where you are over-giving and how to invite true symbiosis and joy back into your life. Honoring Limitations: Why your boundaries aren't failures—they are instructions for your future self. May is the month to be the "Oak Tree": Deeply rooted in the earth, yet reaching toward the sky. Join us as we explore how to simplify to amplify and meet yourself in a higher frequency.   Additional Resources:  Ready to go deeper?

    Write Your Story: Stop Thinking About Your Audience

    It’s no secret I’ve been stuck in my creativity lately (and my fertility). So as a way to reignite my life force energy, I’m going back to the basics. I’m forgetting about my audience and moving toward what makes me happy.  Which has me thinking: If you’re creating your art for an audience, is it really art?  Is creativity with a specific end in mind really creativity at all?  Join me as I think this through in real time and follow along as I try once again to find the creative spark that often gets buried by what we think other people want.    Host: Ally Fallon // @allyfallon // allisonfallon.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    MAY 1

    What's God Got To Do With It? Your Teen Is Struggling…But the School Can't Help Them (And It's Not Their Fault)

    In this episode, Leanne dives into why schools have become mental health first responders—and why they're not equipped to handle it. 96% of schools report skyrocketing mental health needs, but only half have the staff to address them. Counselors are managing caseloads of 400-600 students. And teachers—who became educators to inspire minds—are now carrying the emotional weight of 30+ students every single day, leading to record burnout rates. 60% of teens who receive mental health support get it exclusively at school. So when the system is overwhelmed, students fall through the cracks—and parents feel stuck with nowhere to turn. Leanne pulls back the curtain on what's really happening in schools, why teachers and administrators are drowning despite working their butts off, and why this is a systemic problem no one could have seen coming. But here's the good news: There IS a solution. And it doesn't require hiring more counselors, years of therapy, or overhauling the entire system. It just requires teaching students the tools to regulate themselves. Leanne shares real examples of what changes when students learn to regulate their emotions in under 30 seconds, separate data from drama, and build a self-image that doesn't crumble—so parents and teachers aren't carrying it all. Ready to bring these tools to your school or teen? Head over to TeenagerBrain.com to request a free sample lesson. You'll see exactly how the Teenager Brain curriculum works and test-drive a full lesson yourself. We're looking for our next 25 pilot schools for Fall 2026.
