About this listen

Avoiding pain keeps you stuck in cycles. Pain isn’t punishment. It's preparation. In this episode, Amber breaks down the difference between motion and movement, revealing how emotional numbing, busyness, and distraction keep you looping in resistance instead of growing through transformation. She walks you through the three stages of breakthrough: Separation, Stillness, and Surrender. This episode teaches you how to find peace, purpose, and endurance inside your own cocoon season.
