EP 09: The Power of Your Identity With Life Coach Jenn Boughey
In this episode, you won’t find a to do list or a to eat list or a to supplement with list. As someone who has struggled with disordered eating, I wanted to take you a little deeper than a list of rules to follow. Alexa is a health coach, entrepreneur, and almost board certified nutritionist. Alexa’s background in psychology and her expertise in nutrition equip her with the tools to not only educate on nutrition but also the why behind it all.  Understanding the why and the psychology behind your nutrition habits can plan a key factor in the success of your nutrition goals. Discover how comparison, diet culture and a one size fits all beauty standard can keep you trapped a vicious cycle of yo yo dieting and chronically feeling stressed out by nutrition. After working with Alexa over the past year I knew I wanted her to share some of the highlights we have discussed in my own personal health journey.  Simplify your approach and come back to the basics focusing on whole foods, balanced macros, hydration, and reducing stress whether inside or outside the body.  Alexa's Instagram @vitalitybyalexa Contact: vitalitybyalexa@gmail.com To follow along: Instagram: @amygraceclark Website: www.amygraceclark.com

EP 05: Behind The Scenes With Elopment Photographer Hannah Rita
This might just be the episode you've been waiting for. In this episode we have a vulnerable conversation about addiction. It’s a conversation that could possibly feel a little uncomfortable, but one that I hope brings light to a very dark problem.  Addiction. It steals so much from us. It steals depth and meaning and life and love. But the one thing addiction will never be able to steal is the truth - the truth of who God is, the truth of what God is able to do in a surrendered heart, and the truth of who God says you and I are when we invite Him into our lives.  Behavioral addictions may not be something that show up on a drug screen, but they will show up in relationships, in finances, in mental health; and they will affect every single area of life. A quick review of statistics from Covenant Eyes reveals just how widespread and deadly an addiction to pornography and/or sex is, and just how quickly those statistics are growing.  In this episode, you’ll hear Justin talk about his mindset shift and three actionable choices he integrates into his daily life to live in recovery. You’ll also hear him discuss the 24-hour rule and the way it has changed the way we approach life.  After listening to this episode, I hope you realize that no matter how incredibly low you feel, God can still step in and redeem your story.  I never want you to feel so alone or so broken that you feel like you can’t ask for help. There is hope for your story, and I hope you surrender it all to God and lean into writing this next chapter with Him.  Covenant Eyes Statics: https://www.covenanteyes.com/pornstats/ Ever Accountable: https://everaccountable.com/ref/180/ The Power Of One More https://www.amazon.com/Power-One-More-Ed-Mylett/dp/1119815363 To follow along: Instagram: @amygraceclark Website: www.amygraceclark.com

EP 06: Faith and Motherhood with Anna Richt
Looking back it’s wild to see how far God has carried us, because none of this should be what it is today. We were literally walking out the process of divorce. We knew in our human minds it was over, BUT God had a different plan that we never saw coming. Day by day, God was chiseling away at our hearts and ultimately brought us to this place of togetherness.  I couldn’t see it then like I see it now. And, honestly if you had told me in March of 2018 where we would be by December of 2018, I would not have believed you. Not a single word. But on this side of that season, I know now that day by day your whole world can change just by saying - God, what do I do today, just today?

EP 04: Completely Change Your Life With One Question
“Like a fine gold chain that’s gotten tangled, you may have some things to untangle, but they don’t diminish your value. You’re still pure gold, tangled or not.”  I love the relationship I see with this concept and the verse Job 23:10 where it says, “But he knows the way that I take; when he has tried me, I shall come out as gold.”  I know it’s easy to look at our own stories and diminish the value of them, maybe even diminish the realness of them. We look around us and maybe we see harder stories and discredit our own, or maybe we see beautiful stories and feel ashamed, so we try to hide our stories. But whatever your story is, it’s your story. No one else will have a story just like you, and I believe there is gold to be found in your story and in your life. So maybe it’s time for you and I to stop comparing our stories and start uncovering the gold God has put into our stories. Maybe it’s time to stop hiding our stories and start telling about God’s grace and His goodness.  To follow along: Instagram: @amygraceclark Website: www.amygraceclark.com
EP 02: Finding The Gold In Your Story

She is now redefining what success looks like and feels like for herself and her family all while helping others reach their own personal business goals. Her advice to you - take a leap of faith and get over the fear of what others think.  Instagram: @repurposed_photography and @ontrendcreativestudio  To follow along: Instagram: @amygraceclark Website: www.amygraceclark.com
EP 03: Redefining Success & Building A Life On Your Terms With Liz McShane
There is a deep and burning desire in my bones to tell you the story of a girl whose heart broke young, who carried secrets that would eventually break her, who lost everything, but ultimately found God. She now wants you to know that you don’t have to do life alone. And your worst circumstance will shape you, but it doesn’t have to define you. She wants you to know that you can pick up all of the broken pieces that don’t make sense, you can give them to God, and He will create a beautiful masterpiece you’ve never before imagined.  It is my hope that you’ll watch your life unfold in awe and wonder and one day you’ll look back and see how all the pieces link to each other. And no matter how painful some pieces still are to look at, in the whole of the picture, you can see the goodness and faithfulness of God. I hope you come to see how you were becoming and how all along He was pursuing your heart.  To follow along: Instagram: @amygraceclark Website: www.amygraceclark.com
