This week, I want to offer some straightforward writing and publishing advice that might hurt your feelings; but I’m willing to hurt your feelings since it is in service of awakening your inner artist (see: last week’s episode). Even if you’re “not a writer” or don’t have any aspirations for publishing, this advice is for you. It’s for any creative person who questions the validity of their art because they don’t make much (or any) money from their creative pursuits, because they don’t have a big following, or because their art doesn’t look like the art of those who have had commercial success. Before you give up, or if you already have, check out today’s episode. What I have to say might just change the way you approach your art altogether. I hope it helps you and I can’t wait to see what you make.

This week on What's God Got To Do With It? With Leanne Ellington: If you’ve been struggling with disordered eating patterns, restrictive diets, or feeling chained to unhealthy eating habits, this conversation is for you. We talk about how inviting God into your journey can help break those chains, allowing you to step into a new identity rooted in peace, love, and TRUE freedom. We explore the concept of the "food brain" and how it’s wired to seek comfort and connection through unhealthy coping mechanisms like overeating, mindless scrolling, or other habits that distract from what your soul truly needs. This episode isn’t about quick fixes or surface-level solutions; it's about understanding the root of your struggles and learning to meet them with compassion, solution-focused care, and faith. If you’re ready to shift your focus from fighting with your body to truly healing your relationship with food, this conversation will guide you toward that transformation, with God right by your side.

On this week's episode of Soul Sessions with Amanda Rieger Green: As we reach the midpoint of the year, it's a powerful time to recognize that your energy and frequency are your most vital currency. Your physical body acts as a sacred tuning fork, constantly sensing and reflecting your inner state. Understanding and refining this connection is key to navigating life with grace and integrity. We are living through a period of significant energetic shifts and evolution, where old structures are decomposing to make way for new. These changes are not just abstract; they are real and visceral, impacting us on physical, energetic, and spiritual levels. Honoring what resonates as true within your energetic field is paramount. To cultivate a strong and coherent energetic field, focus on these three checkpoints: Sacred Discernment: Trust Your Inner Knowing Your discernment is a sacred tool for navigating your energetic landscape. It's not about judgment, but rather a deep, intuitive recognition of what aligns with your highest good. We've often been conditioned to override this inner knowing with politeness or external expectations, leading to regret and energetic drain. Mantra: "If it dulls my field, it doesn't belong." Energetic Boundaries: Cultivate Stable Containment Energetic boundaries are not about building walls or defensive armor; they're about fostering stability within your own energetic field. The goal is to become so attuned to your own unique signal that anything out of alignment cannot stick or reside within your space. Mantra: "I hold my signal. I do not shrink, and I do not leak." Your Body as a Tuning Fork: Calibrated for Coherence Your physical body is not something to constantly fix; it's an intricate frequency reader and bio-instrument, constantly tuning and recalibrating. It's often processing information faster than your mind can consciously grasp. Mantra: "My body is calibrated for coherence; it only harmonizes with truth." Remember, the most sacred thing you can do right now is to honor what feels true in your field. This isn't about seeking external proof; it's about claiming your sacred discernment. When you hold your signal clearly, you create the space for authentic connection and alignment. Tune in to hear as Amanda shares practical exercises to help you maintain your energetic integrity!

Welcome back for Part 3 of the official crossover series of the "What’s God Got To Do With It?" and Outweigh podcasts. This week, we discuss the necessity of stepping into a new version of yourself if you really want to achieve true health and freedom in your relationship with food and your body. We talk about WHY transforming your self-image is crucial on a neuroscience level, and how it's not about what you eat-- but who you truly believe yourself to be. Only this time around, you're invited to address the roots of your identity and self-image in a way that aligns with God's view of yourself, instead of worldly and societal standards. And of course, we get a little 'geeky' and explore the Anterior Cingulate Cortex (ACC), and its significant role in self-perception, emotional and physical pain, and your coping mechanisms, AND how this is particularly important for women, whose ACCs are more active than men's. Throughout the episode, you'll hear scripture AND evidence-based research that supports the transformative power of faith. Dive on in to learn how integrating faith and science can lead to building YOUR new identity, free from the burdens of shame and self-rejection, and discover what it truly means to see yourself as God sees you.

Before diving into the main listener question, Amy and Kat share a sky journal poem from a listener and read a funny email complaint about how Amy pronounces the word “poem.” Then, they turn to this week’s Couch Talks email: a heartfelt message from a listener grieving the loss of her dog of 15 years. She’s looking for support with nighttime spirals and hoping to find a little more peace in the pain.

Amy updates us on her vacation with her boyfriend + all their kids and Kat is feeling grateful for someone else's gratitude!!! Two big takeaways from this episode are we should all send more “this made me think of you” texts, especially as voice memos, and don’t leave your luggage open when you’re packing because your cat might pee in it. They also talk about how to smuggle a cookie cake across borders, how neither Kat nor Amy can dive into a pool (one of the more odd things they have in common), and the importance of actually feeling your feelings (especially when your cat pees in your luggage the night before a flight!)

Today, we're diving deep into the intersection of faith, science, food, and body image. This is the big picture conversation -- where these themes overlap, so you can simply understand this connection between neuroscience and faith...and how it can lead to meaningful, lasting transformation in our lives. Leanne shares (for her) how embracing this dialogue meant confronting her skeptical, science-driven mindset and inviting a God-centered perspective into areas she was previously tackling through her own might, and how this approach completed her story and aligned with her fascination with the brain and nervous system. She addresses topics like: Why do our brains play tricks on us? Why do we do what we do? Why can't we seem to shake life-long habits? With references to biblical scripture and modern neuroscience studies, Leanne highlights the transformative power of aligning your thoughts with a higher spiritual perspective. And of course you are invited to invite God into the conversation, recognizing that true transformation involves cultivating a new identity rooted in faith and understanding the profound connection between mind, body, and spirit...and self-image.

There's been a cultural obsession recently with optimizing your life, your health, your body and more. And while optimization can provide support and scaffolding, there’s a hidden danger of focusing too much on optimization. I’ll unpack that silent drawback in today’s episode. I’ll also share an update from my most recent trip to Montana and the status of my yoga teacher training program. You won’t want to miss this great episode!

Amy and Kat got a voicemail from Melanie in Knoxville about her current life status. She shares a home and two kids with her partner. They even got engaged somewhere along the way, but there’s still no wedding. While Melanie is mostly okay with that, questions around faith, last names, and what to call their relationship keep bubbling up. Does it even matter if they never make it official? Amy and Kat share their thoughts and personal experiences, and hopefully after listening, Melanie will have a better idea of what feels right for her.

Amy and Kat are feeling tired and in need of a reset. Enter: Sky Journaling! It’s a creative exercise that blends mindfulness with doodling and ends in some very honest cloud-inspired poems. They also break down the difference between pop psychology vs actual psychology, unpacking commonly used (especially on social media) terms like trauma bonding, gaslighting, and being triggered. And finally, inspired by a school activity Amy’s son is doing, they invite you to “find a win” (big or small) because sometimes, showing up at all is the victory.

In today’s episode of Write Your Story with Ally Fallon, I share a metaphor I’ve been using in my yoga classes lately that has served me in the rest of my life, too. If you’re new here, or if you missed it, I’m teaching yoga! For now it’s one each week at Hot Yoga of East Nashville, a free / donation based 60 minute flow class on Fridays at 4:30. If you’re in Nashville or if you come to visit, come see me at the studio! Sign up for class for free on the MindBody app. I’m learning so much from returning to my yoga practice and from teaching. I’m reminded that my relationship to one thing is my relationship to everything, and so the lessons I learn in practice carry over to my life off the mat. I’m sharing one of those lessons in today’s episode. Host: Ally Fallon // @allyfallon // allisonfallon.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
