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.

    Write Your Story: The Next Step in Your Creative Path

    Tomorrow is the LAST DAY to join us for The River Within, the new program I’m hosting with my friend Ruthie Lindsey. In this episode, we’ll awaken your creative gifts and activate your life force! One of the ways we’ll do this is through the topic of today’s episode: aligned, messy action.  If you’re a thoughtful, deliberate, intentional person, you likely struggle with aligned, messy action. You probably prefer precise, perfect, effective action. And yet what you need most might be permission to try and fail.  Permission to move forward, even if it’s not the “right” move. That’s exactly the permission I’m granting in this episode, and in The River Within. I hope you’ll join us.  Third Coast Comedy Club The Confidence Code by Katty Kay and Claire Shipman Host: Ally Fallon // @allyfallon // allisonfallon.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Soul Sessions: October 2026 Energy Forecast: Venus & Mercury Retrograde, Pluto Direct & the 11/2 Master Month

    This week on Soul Sessions, Amanda Rieger Green maps out the energetic terrain of October — a month she describes as a curious and wild ride. She opens with an oracle card pull, "Relax the Hold of Darkness and Be at Cause," setting the tone for a month that asks for courage, trust, and a loving, courageous heart leading the way.  Amanda breaks down the astrology at play: Venus retrograde in Scorpio backing into Libra, Pluto stationing direct in Aquarius after months of internal transformation, Mercury retrograde arriving late in the month, plus a Libra new moon and Taurus full moon. Numerologically, we're in an 11/2 master month — an energy of relationships, sensitivity, and higher connection.  Amanda walks through three major themes to navigate this month: energetic permeability and overwhelm, relational mirroring (what your relationships are reflecting back to you), and the deeper biological mutations many people are feeling as consciousness accelerates. Practical tools included: how to tell if overwhelm is "yours," a simple physical reset for anxiety, and why prayer and intention can be some of the most powerful things you do this month.

    When Everything Falls Apart at Once & Stuck in the Middle of a Family Feud (Couch Talks)

    What do you do when all the bad things are happening at once? This week, a listener shares that her husband is recovering from open heart surgery while three of her siblings have been diagnosed with serious cancers. She's always been the positive one, but now she feels numb and can't even cry. Should she force herself to feel it, push it away, or just be grateful she's okay? We talk through grief, worry, and how to hold it all when life gets really hard. Then, a listener finds herself stuck in the middle after her mom and her husband's estranged dad started dating (and even walked down the aisle together at her wedding!). Now the relationship has turned toxic, her husband wants nothing to do with either of them, and everyone is waiting for someone else to apologize first. How do you keep the peace when your family is torn apart? Have a question for us? Send it our way and we might answer it on the show!   Get some Feeling Things merch by clicking HERE!

    Amy responds to a listener asking about her weight training and Kat shares a simple 4-minute Tabata workout you can do today, no gym or overwhelm required.

    Dealing with Narcissists at Work

    Working for or with a narcissist can seriously damage your mental and physical health. Today we're breaking down what narcissism actually looks like at work, from the loud, degrading "overt" boss everyone can spot, to the sneakier "communal narcissist" who love-bombs you, plays the hero, and quietly discards you once they've gotten what they need. We talk about why these people rise to the top, how toxic teams end up mirroring dysfunctional families with everyone playing a role, and what to actually do if you're stuck in a workplace like this, including documenting everything, setting boundaries, and being honest with yourself about how much you can really take. Plus, this week's Hasbro Moment honors a teacher, coach, and dad who shows up fully for kids both in and out of the classroom. Hasbro is sponsoring Feeling Things for 8 weeks, celebrating back to school by getting families around the table with games again. Even better: they're helping us honor amazing teachers! Know one?

    What's God Got To Do With It?: Making Peace With What I Can't Control with Lysa TerKeurst

    In this powerful conversation, Lysa TerKeurst gets honest about something most of us don't want to admit: we all have control issues. And often, what we call "being responsible" or "planning ahead" is actually fear disguised as strength. As the founder of Proverbs 31 Ministries and a #1 New York Times bestselling author, Lysa has spent years helping women navigate boundaries, forgiveness, and faith. But in her new book, Making Peace With What I Can't Control, she reveals her own struggle with trying to change people who don't want to change, prevent outcomes she feared, and manage things that were never hers to control in the first place. In this episode, we explore the intersection of neuroscience and faith, how our brains are wired to seek certainty and safety, and what happens when our need for control bumps up against our relationship with God. Lysa shares how to know when we've crossed the line from healthy responsibility into fear-driven control, what it actually looks like to surrender without giving up, and how to make peace with trusting God's heart when we don't understand what He allows. This isn't about becoming passive. It's about learning the difference between what is actually ours to steward and what was never ours to carry. If you've ever felt exhausted from overthinking, trying to fix others, or wanting to figure it all out, this conversation is for you.
