    The Guide | When Wisdom Sustains the Journey

    Send a text Wholehearted Storywork Part 4  After you've named the pain, let go of control, and stepped into agency, a question emerges: How do I sustain this? In this final episode of the Wholehearted Storywork series, Amy explores the Guide role, not as someone who has arrived or finished their own story, but as someone who has stayed with their healing long enough to walk alongside others without needing to control the outcome. This conversation reframes what it means to guide and be guided, and why formation is a lifelong journey that requires wisdom, presence, and ongoing support. You'll explore:  What a Guide is (and isn't) in wholehearted formation.Why Guides still need guidance and haven't "graduated" from their own healing.How Hero energy becomes sustainable through wisdom over time. The Holy Spirit as the true Guide in your life.Why you don't have to have it all together to walk with othersThis episode isn't about becoming an authority or arriving at spiritual maturity. It's about learning how to stay present with your own story so you can offer that same presence to others. If you've been on this wholehearted journey and are wondering what comes next, or if you've realized that even good changes need support to last, this conversation offers a vision of formation that doesn't end but deepens. Guides don't guide because they're finished; they guide because they've learned how to stay.

    Send a text Wholehearted Storywork Part 3 When you've named the pain and released the need to control, something powerful awakens. A choice. In this third episode of the Wholehearted Storywork series, Amy explores the Hero role, not as hustle or self-reliance, but as the moment you realize you have agency in your own story.

You'll explore:  What it means to awaken agency without falling into self-reliance.Why Hero energy is necessary for healing to move forward.The difference between choosing courageously and carrying everything alone. How effort and insight can start transformation, but wisdom helps it last.Why you were never meant to be the hero in everyone else's story.This episode isn't about doing more or trying harder. It's about recognizing the moments when you realize: "I don't have to stay here. I can choose differently." If you've ever taken a brave step forward only to find yourself exhausted months later, or if you're wondering how to sustain the changes you've courageously made, this conversation offers clarity and compassion for the journey ahead.

    The Villain | When Protection Turns into Control

    Send a text Wholehearted Storywork – Part 2 When pain goes unhealed, it doesn’t disappear. It often turns into protection. In this second episode of the Wholehearted Storywork series, Amy explores the Villain role, not as a label for bad people, but as a pattern that forms when fear, self-protection, or unresolved hurt begins to shape our choices. This conversation gently reframes villain energy as a response to pain rather than a moral failure, and invites you to notice where control, defensiveness, or blame may have quietly replaced trust. You’ll explore: How unprocessed pain can harden the heart over timeWhy the Villain role is often about protection, not crueltyThe difference between repentance and self-condemnationHow fear and control can quietly rewrite the story you’re livingWhy awareness (not shame) is the first step toward freedomThis episode isn’t about diagnosing yourself or others.  It’s about noticing the ways we try to stay safe when healing feels risky. If you’ve ever recognized patterns you don’t like in yourself, or wondered how pain can slowly distort the way you relate to God and others, this conversation offers clarity, compassion, and a more hopeful way forward. Awareness doesn’t make you the villain. It helps you choose a better story.

    The Victim | When Pain Shapes the Story

    Send a text Wholehearted Storywork Part 1 Pain changes you. Loss, disappointment, betrayal, or suffering can quietly shape how you see yourself, God, and the world. In this first episode of the Wholehearted Storywork series, Amy introduces the Victim role, not as an identity to reject or a mentality to shame, but as a place in the story where real pain is named and honored. This conversation explores the difference between acknowledging harm and becoming stuck in it, and how Scripture invites you into holy lament rather than denial, blame, or self-erasure. You'll explore:  Why being a victim of pain is not a failure of faith.How unprocessed hurt can shape your story.The difference between telling the truth about what happened and living from a victim mentality.Why lament is a faithful and biblical response to suffering.How healing begins with paying attention, not pressure or quick resolutionThis episode is not about fixing your pain or rushing your healing. It's about creating space for honesty, compassion, and the slow work of formation. If you've been carrying a story that hurts (and aren't sure what to do with it), this conversation offers language and a way forward that doesn't bypass your humanity. Being in the Victim role doesn't mean you stay there; it simply means you're telling the truth about where you are. Healing begins when the truth is told in the presence of God's unconditional love.

    *Bonus* What Story Are You Living? |Wholehearted Storywork Series Introduction

    Send a text What story are you living right now? Not the one you wish you were in. Not the polished version you post about. The real one. The one where you feel stuck, tired, or uncertain about what comes next. In this series introduction, Amy invites you into a new way of understanding your spiritual formation journey through four key roles we all move through: the Victim, the Villain, the Hero, and the Guide. This isn't about labeling yourself or fixing what's broken. It's about recognizing where you are in your story so you can respond with wisdom instead of shame. If you've been exhausted by trying harder, spiritual intensity that burns you out, or quick fixes that don't last, this series offers something different: a slower, steadier, more compassionate path toward wholeness. Your starting point doesn't have to be your stuck point. This is just the beginning.  Support the show RESOURCES FOR YOU: Join the Waitlist for 1:1 Coaching with Amy Wicks https://www.simplywholehearted.com/callamywicks Not sure about your Enneagram Type?

    Why Insight Doesn’t Change You (And What Actually Does)

    Send a text You've had insight before. The clarity, conviction, and even real momentum. And yet, somehow, it didn't last. If you've ever wondered why meaningful change feels so hard to sustain, this episode is for you. In this conversation, Amy explores why insight alone—no matter how true or powerful—rarely leads to lasting transformation. Not because you failed, but because insight was never meant to carry the full weight of change on its own. This episode gently reframes skepticism as wisdom-in-the-making and invites you to consider a different path forward & one rooted in formation rather than intensity. You'll explore: Why insight often sparks change but can't sustain itHow intensity-based growth struggles to survive real lifeWhy seasons of disappointment don't mean you're resistantThe difference between performance-driven change and formation that lastsWhat it means to stay with your story long enough for wisdom to take rootThis isn't a call to try harder or hope faster. It's an invitation to slow down, notice patterns, and consider what kind of change can actually be carried over time. If you've been protecting yourself from false hope (or wondering why past breakthroughs faded), this episode offers language, clarity, and a steadier way forward. Not through reinvention. Through spiritual formation. Support the show RESOURCES FOR YOU: Join the Waitlist for 1:1 Coaching with Amy Wicks https://www.simplywholehearted.com/callamywicks Not sure about your Enneagram Type?

    Response, Not Responsibility | Releasing the Weight You Were Never Meant to Carry

    Send a text My confession and an invitation to release… As a faithful woman, you aren’t burned out because you lack discipline; you’re exhausted because you’ve been carrying a responsibility God never asked you to bear. In this episode, Amy explores the difference between responding to God and taking responsibility for outcomes and how easily faith can slip from love into pressure, control, and performance. This conversation isn’t about becoming irresponsible or lowering the bar. It’s about releasing the heavy yoke and rediscovering a faith formed by belovedness rather than fear. You’ll explore: Why responsibility often becomes a hidden spiritual burden.How Scripture reframes obedience as response, not self-management.What Jesus meant when He said His yoke is easy and His burden is light.How fear, control, and the need for significance quietly shape our faith.Why discipline isn’t rejected, but reordered around love.If faith has started to feel heavy, demanding, or joyless, this episode offers language, permission, and a better way forward. Not through striving, but through response.

    What Is Wholehearted? (and what it’s not)

    Send a text If faith has started to feel heavier than life-giving, you’re not alone AND you’re not doing it wrong. In this foundational episode, Amy defines what Wholehearted living really means and, just as importantly, what it does not mean. This conversation is for the faithful, disciplined woman who has kept showing up… but is quietly tired of spiritual intensity that burns her out instead of forming her. Wholehearted living isn’t hype, it doesn’t strive out of fear, and it doesn’t happen from trying harder. It’s a formation process that begins with belovedness, not responsibility, and unfolds slowly through perseverance, wisdom, and grace. In this episode, you’ll explore: Why some “old” approaches to spiritual growth stop working over time.How Scripture names divided, weary, and broken hearts, without shame.What it means to love God with your whole heart, mind, and strength without fragmentation.Why do rhythms spiritually form you more deeply than striving or big emotional moments?How discipline can be reordered around love instead of fear or pressure.This episode lays the foundation for the podcast's themes: Enneagram, rhythms, storywork, and a slower, more intentional journey of spiritual formation throughout the year. If you’ve been longing for growth that doesn’t exhaust you, faith that doesn’t demand certainty, and transformation that honors your story, then this conversation is for you.
