    New Beginnings
    Jan 6 2026
    In this episode of Hard Knox, Amanda is joined by her husband Chris for an intimate and surprisingly funny conversation about the practice of beginning again. Drawing from Zen practice, a New Year’s fight, and a walk in the woods, they explore how noticing momentum in our thoughts, moods, and arguments can interrupt downward spirals, how compassion and physical connection can reset conflict, and why beginning again is not about erasing the past but choosing wisely in the present.

  • Why Hope Is Learnable (Scott Barry Kaufman)

    Why Hope Is Learnable (Scott Barry Kaufman)
    Dec 30 2025
    Scott Barry Kaufman is a cognitive scientist and bestselling author whose work explores creativity, intelligence, and what helps people grow after hardship. In this episode, Amanda and Scott talk about how we get stuck in stories about ourselves, how to tell the difference between honoring pain and letting it run the show, and why growth often starts with a small shift in perspective rather than a dramatic breakthrough. Along the way, they explore why curiosity beats self judgment, how hope can be learned, and why becoming more whole does not require erasing what you have been through.

  • Who's Right? - The True Meaning of Christmas

    Who's Right? - The True Meaning of Christmas
    Dec 27 2025
    Amanda and Chris debate the true meaning of Christmas through stories about Charlie Brown, gift giving, religion, pagan traditions, and very strong opinions about gift cards. They explore why Christmas has always been less about belief and more about gathering, why remembering people matters more than buying things, and why sharing your blueberries might actually be the whole point.
