Feeling Things with Amy & Kat

PART 4 of 4: If you're tired of the 'say-do' gap, this episode will help bridge the divide and you'll see that you can achieve results by working smarter, not harder. The final part to break free from negativity and help you nurture an "emotionally healthy" brain is the doing and you're awesome for making it to the homestretch!

In PART 4 you learn:

- How to play a "winning game" (And STOP playing a "losing game")
- Minimums, not maximums (and how this is also part of neuro-magic)
- How to "Reverse Engineer" your life.
- Now you can truly “act as if.”

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.

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.

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.

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?
