[AMY SAYS] How to Work with Your Anxiety EP#393
The Bold-Faced Truth Podcast
05/17/21 • 46 min
You have a job interview coming up, but you can’t calm your mind from thinking about the worst-case scenarios. You have a huge presentation coming up at work, and every time you think about it, your palms sweat, and your heart races. You have a family event coming up and damn-it if your mother-in-law doesn’t spike your anxiety!
Or maybe you can’t remember a time in your life when anxiety hasn’t been present. It doesn’t have to be a strenuous job interview or family event to get your heart racing... it just races all. The damn. Time.
Whether you struggle with situational anxiety or chronic anxiety, the effects can be downright debilitating. And, although anxiety disorders and anxious thoughts are more commonplace than ever, it can be challenging to find tactics and strategies that actually help. Of course, we all know there’s weed or traditional western medicine approaches, but what do you do if you don’t dig those options? Just white-knuckle it the whole time? Hardly.
In this week’s show, I share my intimate, personal journey with anxiety, where anxiety originates from, and a bevy of ways you can tackle this beast whether you tend toward traditional western medicine or prefer alternative options. You may have anxiety, but honey, it does not have you.
This pod explores:
- The number one thing you can change TODAY that will dramatically decrease your anxiety
- How to properly set yourself up for dealing with anxiety triggers like a boss
- Understanding the connection between anxiety and our primitive fight/flight response
- My favorite tactics for immediately squashing a fit of nerves
I’ve been hearing that many of you have been battling some seeeerious anxiety due the craziness of recent current events. Anxious AF, amiright!? I feel you. I really do.
I wanted to create a resource to help you cope with the new crop of fears and anxieties that have been poppin’ up so I made an awesome hypnosis track for you! And no need to freak out about hypno... It’s basically just meditation with a goal. So, you won’t be clucking like a chicken or any of that booooshit.
So, clickety-click RIGHT HUURRR and get your peace on! #yourewelcome

Grab your seat in Relationship Rx!
Sometimes communicating with your partner can feel like you’re trying to solve a Rubik’s cube with your feet... and with your eyes closed. And even though you feel like you are using all of the words and explaining yourself over and over and over, it seems like you are even farther away from solving this intricate puzzle. And, now somehow your partner is pissed at YOU. Wait, what? How did we get here?
This cycle is unbelievably common because, um, where exactly are we supposed to learn how to communicate effectively? School? Mom and Dad? Hell, no. Media? Uh, nope. Your last relationship? Probably not. So, cut yourself some slack and be compassionate. The great news is that EFFECTIVELY communicating with your partner isn’t that complicated and you can make huge changes in your relationship dynamic just from making a few subtle shifts.
If you tuned in last week, you heard me sound off on some of the most common ways we try to get through to our partner which often ends in nothing but frustration, freak-outs, and fuming. This week, I’m covering off five things you can do that will drastically change your ability get your message across to your partner.
This pod explores:
- How to figure out what you role in the matter may be (even if you would rather make it his/her fault)
- The one essential piece of communication you’re probably neglecting every single time you chat with your partner
- How to present your “side” of the sitch to your partner in a way they can actually hear you
- What to do if the two of you start raising your voices and get all heated
Ever feel like you’re banging your head against the wall by having the same god-damned convo over and over and over and continuing to get absolutely nowhere?
Just imagine being able to have thoughtful, intimate conversations with your partner where you both feel heard and understood. Wait, whaaaaa!?
No matter what state your relationship may be in... Whether you are super happy, kinda happy, or not-at-all happy, this course will radically change how you communicate and connect with your spouse. Even if they aren’t on board. Even if you already know what they’ll say.[

4 Ways to Increase Intimacy In Your Relationship [TJJS:EP246]
The Bold-Faced Truth Podcast

FIND OUT YOUR COMMUNICATION LEVEL. TAKE THE QUIZ!
Tell me if I’m onto something here... You’d love to foster deeper connection and intimacy with your partner but you have zero idea where to start. And, let me guess... he/she isn’t making things any easier on you, amiright? You often find yourself thinking, “Well, why should I put any effort in? He never does.” Or, “I know how she’s going to respond, so I’d rather not even address it.” Or maybe “I can’t imagine anything changing, so why even bother?”
Well, I’ll tell you why you should bother. While you’re sitting around waiting for intimacy and connection to magically appear in your relationship, you are stuck in a vicious cycle of tit-for-tat and you still come up empty, frustrated, and lack the connection you are craving from your partner. Or perhaps you’re craving the connection that used to be there. Before the job. Before the kids. Before the in-law drama.
Well, here’s the great news: All is not lost. You can totally begin to foster a deeper connection and sense of togetherness with your partner in small, gentle ways. It doesn’t have to be a big, crack-myself-wide-open sort of convo. In fact, I would argue that some of the small, baby steps you can take toward intimacy can be wildly effective. In this episode, you’ll learn exactly what these small, baby steps look like so you can get back to the togetherness and intimacy you’ve been desiring!
This pod explores:
- What-the-hell intimacy even means
- How to create daily practices that dramatically increase the intimacy of your relationship
- Super-fun and easy ideas to cultivate connection with your partner
- Commonly overlooked ways to create physical intimacy with your partner
Ever feel like you’re banging your head against the wall by having the same god-damned convo over and over and over and continuing to get absolutely nowhere?
Before you throw something at his/her head, take a quick cruise through this quiz to find out any sticking points in your communication style and what you can actually DO about it.

Breaking the Cycle of Self-Sabotage [TJJS:EP251]
The Bold-Faced Truth Podcast
04/30/18 • 38 min
Many years ago, I had a discussion with my coach which started out with me bitching and complaining about how unhappy I had been in my life lately. After working through a handful of things, I became SUPER clear that my day in and day out life wasn't reflective of the things I knew brought me joy and happiness. I wasn't taking care of my health, wasn't meditating, wasn't connecting with like-minded spirits, wasn't involved in creative projects... so NO WONDER I had hit a rough patch!
Was it that I didn't know what would help me feel better? Nope. That was just the prob. I totally knew what lit me up, I was just not doing any of those things. I was involved in full-on self-sabotage and I had NO idea I was even doing it!
Perhaps you can relate? Maybe you want to embark on a new career, but instead of researching, you zone out on some rando's vacation pics on Facebook. Or maybe you want to get healthier, but you continue to hang out with people who make it #supes challenging to go for the kale over the burger. If you're like most people, chances are you consistently get in your own way and have perpetual non-cohesiveness between what you SAY you want and what you actually DO.
In this episode, I untangle what-the-hell self-sabotage even is, why we do it (even without knowing it), and exactly what you can do about it (like, today!). Be sure to grab your cheatsheet [points to yellow button above] and get ready to make some shit happen.
This pod explores:
- How our fear is directly related to our self-sabotaging behavior and the question that will get you to the root of your fear
- The three main areas of your life you need to examine and alter to seriously set yourself up for success
- How to figure out a game plan for the things you need to keep, stop, and start in your daily routine
Wanna hang out in real life? And learn some dope, life-changing shit? And connect with like-minded badasses who are dying to be in your corner? And eat amazing food in a #gorge destination? Of course, you do!
At the end of May, I will open registration for a brand-spankin’-new, IN-PERSON retreat and if you’re like, “AMY!! Tell me first!” then, Love, I’ve gotchu.
All the sexy details are still being ironed out, but if you’d like to be the absolute FIRST to hear about all the early-bird steals and deals, be sure to get your ass on this little list right HERE. Can’t wait to hug you #IRL!

GET ON THE DEEP, DOWN + DIRTY VIP LIST!
It’s round two of ‘Quiz Time’ on the podcast! As you know, I love to talk about all things communication... How to speak up for yourself with that *one* family member, how to actually say ‘no’ to shit that isn’t serving you, and how to have tough conversations like a total badass. Last week, I thought it would be fun to quiz Mr. Smith on some of these communication principles. It turned out that I had so many scenarios that I had to make it a two-part series!
This week, you can further your communication acumen as we discuss statements that involve addressing sticky topics with your partner, how to best approach a tough convo, and what a solid boundary actually sounds like. Play along as I read six statements and see how you fare! #youvegotthis
This pod explores:
- The crucial element many people neglect when trying to establish a boundary
- How your self-worth is affected by your ability to speak up for yourself or not
- The most effective way to address your partner when they have straight pissed you off!
- How to communicate effectively with your fam, even when they are NOT happy with your choices
Is this the year you go from a people-pleasing, guilt-tripped perfectionist to a bold and boundaried badass? Um, yeah. I think it is!

The Blame Game [TJJS:EP217]
The Bold-Faced Truth Podcast
08/21/17 • 44 min
Ever feel like... If only my boss wasn't such and idiot, our workplace would be so much better. Or, if only my ex wasn't such a douchebag, then my life would be so much easier. Or, if only our economy was better, then I'd be able to take care of my finances. Or, if only my mom wasn't so damn irritating, I'd totally be happy.
If any of this sounds familiar, congrats, you're totally normal. We don't consciously decide to become blamers, but it often becomes our go-to behavior when we're unhappy with something or someone in our lives. It's MUCH easier to stand in blame (and we're also conditioned to do so) than it is to search for your role in the matter. So, how does one go about letting go of blame?
In this week's episode, I look at why we tend to immediately blame others, or things outside our control, why it's a trap and totally ineffective, and what you can actually DO about it. And, trust... Get ready to feel a shit-ton better and massively more powerful.
This pod explores:
- Our biological need to find the culprit and why we often turn to blame (often without realizing it)
- Two major consequences that occur if we choose blame over self-care
- How blame and forgiveness are related and how you can forgive and still establish boundaries
- Journal prompt Q's for you to pin-point where you get blame-trapped
How 'bout you get your happy-ass to Huntington Beach, California this coming October to meet me and two of my besties for an #epic adventure? [say yes] We'll munch on some tacos, soak up the gorgeous, West Coast sun, and dig deep into some serious personal development.
This is our third (and LAST) time hosting this event and our robust program covers three major concepts: Managing Your Inner Critic, Self-Confidence, and Effective Communication. We have sold out all years prior and anticipate the same for 2017. Swing by our info page to check out what you can expect, what our program covers and grab your spot at this special event!

5 “Victimy” Things You Don’t Realize You’re Doing + How to Change Them [TJJS:EP278]
The Bold-Faced Truth Podcast
12/03/18 • 36 min
Any of these thoughts sound familiar? I would totally be able to figure shit out if my ex wasn’t such an asshole... Or, I totally could move up in the company, if only my boss wasn’t such an asshat. I would for sure have a great relationship with my sister if only she wasn’t such a dick about everything. In essence... you could totally be happy if only everyone else got their shit together.
Ring any bells? Now, don’t get me wrong... I’m not saying it’s okay that your boss micromanages your ass or that it’s okay that your ex is making things hella challenging, but what I am saying is staying locked into blame and constant complaining is creating (albeit subconsciously) a total victim mentality on your part.
Wait, whaaaaa!? Yep. You. When you get stuck in the rat race of chronic “blame + complain”, you unknowingly give away all your power to people and circumstances you can’t control, perpetually feel like shit because you can’t control those things/people, and end up not doing anything to alter the situation. I mean, it’s so-and-so’s fault, right?
Wrong. Listen, you are waaaaaay too smart to live your life as a victim... Even if you had no idea you were doing so. Have a listen and see if you’ve been unknowingly residing in Martyrdomsville and what you can actually do to change it. Like, yesterday.
This pod explores:
- How to be pissed at people and situations WITHOUT getting lost in Blame + Complain
- Why saying shit like, “Of course this would happen to me” is doing NOTHING to aid in your personal power
- How to stop trying to “one up” people with your current shitty set of affairs (as in, “You think your sitch sucks, just listen to my story...“)
- Why you need to stop saying “Why me?” Like, NOW.
Is this the year you go from a people-pleasing, guilt-tripped perfectionist to a bold and boundaried badass? Um, yeah. I think it is!
If you’re DONE feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and stressed out because you’re constantly doing, doing, doing for everyone else, then you must grab your seat in this brand-new workshop! You’ll learn the exact five-step process I take my clients through so they can let go of all the stress and angst of striving for “perfect” and caring waaaaay too much what everyone else thinks.

How To Share Personal Development With Others [TJJS:EP273]

Tell me if this sounds familiar. You’re mom/bestie/sister/co-worker starts complaining about something you used to totally struggle with and your first thought is, “OMG! I know the solution! Let me just tell her what she should do...” Don’t get me wrong. You’re not trying to be a boss-pants and all condescending, you just genuinely know of something that may help. Afterall, it helped you, so surely they want to hear about it!
So why would your sage advice fall on deaf ears? I’ll tell you why. (Of course, I will.) Often when you jump into the world of personal development, you start to make some seriously awesome strides and your first instinct is to share that with your closest circle. Yet, sometimes they aren’t so ready to hear you. So, what are you supposed to do... just let them suffer!?
If you’ve found yourself wanting to share your newfound love of personal growth with someone not-so-ready to listen, this episode is a MUST LISTEN. I sound off on four, specific ways you can share personal development tactics and concepts with those you care so much about... without coming across pushy.
This pod explores:
- The three ways people usually respond to “the new and improved YOU”
- Exactly what NOT to do if you want someone to hear you out
- How you can incorporate games and play into sharing your journey with others
- How to offer solutions in a super disarming, loving way

Have you ever found yourself at your wits end with your partner and you think something to the effect of, “Well, if he would just _________, we’d be just fine!” Or “I totally wouldn’t get all worked up if she would just ________.” It’s totally normal [and much easier] for us to blame our partner and conveniently NOT look at our role in the matter.
Here’s the rub with all things relationships: We aren’t ever really taught how to communicate with our significant others. We learn how to operate from our parents, from experimenting in our intimate partnerships, or from what the media tells us. So, OF COURSE you want to bang your head against the wall. No one told you how to actually get through to that other person.
In this show, I discuss 10 specific questions to ask yourself to help you better navigate the communication in your relationship. PLUS, this episode comes with freebie Journaling Worksheets so you can get it all out on paper, make a plan for your partnership, and get to gettin’ with that rich connection you’re craving. Say HELLO to better connection, communication, and intimacy. Yes, please!
This pod explores:
- The #1 ineffective way most people communicate and why you HAVE TO STOP (I mean, if you want your partner to listen to you)
- My favorite, game-changing question to start asking your partner that will have them opening up in no time
- How to prepare for challenging conversations in such a way that you get your needs met from a willing partner (without having to throw a shoe at their head)
- How to know exactly what is YOUR shit and what is THEIR shit (and you might be surprised)
Did you grab your free journaling pages that accompanies this episode? Get on it, Babycakes! Here's the deal: our brain takes things waaaaay more seriously when we get out of our heads and get our thoughts/commitments out on paper. It's like, science.
So, OF COURSE I want you to make some serious changes, so be sure you have your Pod #239 worksheets with you while you (re) listen to this pod so you can get into some serious action. Trust... if you just listen and don't DO, you're not going to change a damn thing.

What to do When Youre Stressed-The-F-Out
The Bold-Faced Truth Podcast
08/28/17 • 37 min
GRAB YOUR SPOT AT TANNING, TACOS, + TRANSFORMATION!
One. More. Thing. One more thing and you may just lose your god-damned mind. If one more person asks something of you... If one more task gets added to your to-do list... You may just Lose. Your. Shit.
We've all been in this crazy-ass-stressed-the-fuck-out place where we become, uh-hem, a little less than the best version of ourselves. We scream at our kids when they need something minimal. We lash out at our spouse, or friend, or co-worker when they are just trying to help. In essence, we become committed to being super stressed out and overwhelmed.
If this sounds like I have a hidden camera installed in your place, dude, you need to have a listen to this week's pod. BTW, no camera (#creepy)... I've just been in this place far too many times to count. And in this episode, I discuss 7 simple things you can do to let go of the overwhelm, stress, and mortal combat that may be driving you to the brink of insanity. Say hello to some serious peace, tranquility, and happy spouses.
This pod explores:
- The three things you can do today to immediately slim down that never-ending to-do list... because, you need some free time, my friend
- My favorite way to jar my mind from going down the overwhelm rabbit hole and how this shift in focus will have you chillin' out in no time
- How to figure out exactly what you need to say "yes" to and what you need to say "no" to when everything feels super important (Hint: not everything is important. For reals.)
How 'bout you get your happy-ass to Huntington Beach, California this coming October to meet me and two of my besties for an #epic adventure? [say yes] We'll munch on some tacos, soak up the gorgeous, West Coast sun, and dig deep into some serious personal development.
This is our third (AND LAST!!) time hosting this event and our robust program covers three major concepts: Managing Your Inner Critic, Self-Confidence, and Effective Communication. We have sold out all years prior and anticipate the same for 2017. Swing by our info page to check out what you can expect, what our program covers and grab your spot at this special event!
