Write Your Story: Stop Doubting Your Brilliance Aug 28, 2026

Show notes

You are brilliant.

You don’t think you are, but you are.

The exact way that you move through the world, that you love others, that you dress, that you speak, that you take care of people, that you create and make and dance and laugh is magical and needed and utterly irreplaceable.

The problem is you’re second-guessing it. You’re downplaying it.

You tell yourself that you don’t want to be too arrogant or think too highly of yourself.

You don’t want to stand up too tall or shine too brightly.

This is your reminder to shine EXACTLY THAT BRIGHT. To shine so brightly that you feel like an absolute fool.

We need you, your heart, your essence and all of your magic.

One-Upping vs. Relating, a Friend Dilemma & a Stolen Spotlight (Couch Talks) Aug 27, 2026

Show notes

A listener wants to know the difference between relating to someone's story and accidentally one-upping them, where does connection end and competition begin?

We also tackle a tricky friendship dilemma: a listener whose friend gets loud, aggressive, and mean when she drinks too much on trips, and now keeps inviting herself along to group vacations.

And finally, we answer a heartfelt letter from a bride whose engagement season has been completely overshadowed, first by a wave of friends getting engaged around the same time, and now by her own dad's upcoming wedding.

How to Get People to Like You More + Why Glen Powell Couldn't Eat Ketchup for Years Aug 25, 2026

Show notes

Amy bought Glen Powell's ketchup on a whim at the store and there’s so much more to this then we realized. We get into his wild journey from a childhood ketchup trauma to co-founding his own organic condiment brand, Smash Kitchen.

Kat unpacks family systems for us and the different roles people tend to fall into growing up, the Hero, the Mascot, the Lost Child, the Placater, and the Scapegoat, and talk through why the "truth teller" of the family so often ends up labeled as the problem.

We also talk about a psychological trick called the Benjamin Franklin Effect, the surprising reason people actually like you more when you ask them for a small favor, not the other way around.

Plus, we share an incredibly touching story from a Hasbro Moment listener whose autistic son found connection and confidence through simple board games like Hi Ho! Cherry-O and Hungry Hungry Hippos, thanks to a teacher who knew exactly what he needed.

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? Email heythere@feelingthingspodcast.com or call 877-207-2077, they could get featured on the show, plus a $500 Walmart gift card from Hasbro for classroom supplies.

Soul Sessions: What If Heaven on Earth Is Now? Aug 23, 2026

Show notes

What if the best moment of your life isn't a future milestone — but today? In this solo episode, Amanda explores what it really means to be soulful: not the extraordinary or transcendent, but the ordinary — a song on the radio, a waiting room, a hard conversation you didn't run from.

Amanda reflects on presence, discernment, and the difference between performing a soulful life and actually living one — including how grief, pain, and uncertainty (what she calls "the hallway") can be some of the most soulful teachers we have.

In this episode, Amanda covers:

What "soulfulness" actually feels like in everyday moments — big and small
Why discernment (not authenticity) is the real practice
How to sit with uncertainty instead of rushing through it
Why pain and grief can crack us open into deeper presence

Ask yourself this week: where are you finding your soul?

What's God Got To Do With It?: Acting As If (FEELING) When Your Thoughts Don’t Match How You Feel Aug 21, 2026

Show notes

PART 2 of 4: Ever wonder why your thoughts and feelings don't sync up? Amy & Leanne share a fresh-yet-totally-doable approach that will help you reclaim the reins of confusing thoughts in our head…so that stepping into WHO YOU WANT TO BE actually becomes possible!
In PART 2 you learn:
- Why it's not your CIRCUMSTANCES that dictate your reality, it's your THOUGHTS, and how every single thought CAUSES a feeling-- not the other way around.
- Why your Self Image knows how you really feel, so before you can "act as if" or "believe a new reality", it's got to FEEL good, FEEL true, and resonate.
- How to truly flip "negative emotions" on their head and find the gold in what it's trying to teach you.

Your Worst Day Might Be a Setup for Something Good (Couch Talks) Aug 20, 2026

Show notes

A listener had a mortifying public moment...and somehow ended up on a date because of it. You'll have to hear the full story to believe it. It’s so crazy and we’d feel so embarrassed, but also grateful?? Haha.

We hear from a caller who confesses she pre-cleans her house before the cleaners arrive, and yes, you are not alone if you do this too. A listener encourages Amy to cut her hair, plus we answer a question that was asked by many: what is a drink dropper?!

We also get into a tricky question from a listener who works as an overnight cleaner: she found something disturbing left behind by a group of teens at a school she cleans, and now feels strangely embarrassed to even report it to her male supervisor. We try to unpack where that shame is coming from.

New Favorite Book of the Year + A Habit That Could Change Your Kid's Future Aug 18, 2026

Show notes

Amy’s gushing about a book that might be the best read of the year, no spoilers, just pure obsession. Then we dig into some research-backed data on family dinners and why something as simple as eating together regularly can lower kids' aggression, reduce disordered eating, and even boost grades and self-esteem.

We also get into a genuinely useful parenting hack for avoiding yes/no questions that invite pushback (and yes, we tested if it works on spouses too), plus Quiet Hours at Sephora, a sensory-friendly shopping option way more people than you'd expect could benefit from.

And we share an incredibly moving email from a listener nominating her local teacher, whose classroom was damaged in recent flooding but who's kept showing up for her students anyway. We're kicking off something special with Hasbro over the next several weeks to help honor her and teachers like her.

Hasbro is sponsoring Feeling Things for 8 weeks, celebrating back to school by getting families around the table with games again.

Show notes

The cosmic curriculum just changed! In this episode of Soul Sessions, Amanda Rieger Green breaks down the pivotal astrological shift as the North Node moves into Aquarius and the South Node enters Leo. This 18-month planetary shift (lasting through March 2028) marks a massive evolutionary leap for both the collective and our personal lives.

As technology and artificial intelligence accelerate exponentially, the core question becomes: How do we evolve our humanity alongside rapidly advancing intelligence?

In this episode, Amanda covers:

The Cosmic Shift: What the North Node in Aquarius & South Node in Leo mean for your personal growth over the next year and a half.
Pluto & Jupiter at Play: How Pluto in Aquarius and Jupiter in Leo are catalyzing deep personal transformation and expanding perspective.
The August Catalyst: Navigating the Leo New Moon Solar Eclipse, the Lion’s Gate Portal (8/8), and the energetic shifts of late summer.
Authenticity vs. The Attention Economy: Shifting from seeking external validation/metrics to embodying internal authority and genuine human connection.
Evolving Beyond Perfectionism: Building on the previous Pisces/Virgo node lessons to release proving energy and step into authentic heart-led expression.
