Growth And Discipline Begins Where Comfort Ends.– Amanda Sharp

What if the biggest battle of your life isn’t the enemy, other people, or your circumstances… but the undisciplined version of you that you allow?

In this raw and eye-opening conversation, Amanda and Christy take you deep into the internal fight every person faces: the tension between your disciplined self who wants transformation and your undisciplined self who craves comfort, avoidance, and the familiar.

This episode exposes the patterns that quietly sabotage your calling — the excuses, the blame, the hiding, the self-righteousness, the shame, the emotional addictions, and the beliefs that keep you small.

Inside this episode you’ll hear:

• Why comfort feels safe but silently destroys your growth
• How the undisciplined self keeps you stuck in cycles of self-sabotage
• Why discipline is choosing who you want to become, not what feels good
• How shame loses its power the moment it’s brought into the light
• The spiritual truth that transformation starts with surrender
• The addictions no one talks about (validation, people-pleasing, ego, negativity, numbing, avoidance)
• Why some areas of your life get your discipline — and others get your excuses
• How God uses repentance, humility, and accountability to reshape your entire life

Amanda and Christy share personal stories, spiritual breakthroughs, and the painful yet powerful moments when God exposed the parts of themselves that comfort was hiding.

This episode will challenge the way you see discipline, comfort, calling, and the person you are becoming.

Do It From Love Not For Love– Amanda Sharp

What if the version of “love” you’ve been giving isn’t really love at all—but a disguised form of people-pleasing, self-abandonment, or enabling?

In this deep and candid conversation, we take a hard look at the patterns so many of us fall into: over-giving, over-apologizing, absorbing the emotions of everyone around us, and calling it kindness.

We unpack the difference between doing things for love versus doing things from love—and why one leads to resentment and depletion, while the other leads to real connection, peace, and spiritual alignment.

We explore why people-pleasers are often not praised while silently suffering, how boundaries feel terrifying when your value is tied to being needed, and how easily manipulative dynamics form when you don’t know your worth.

From faith to friendship, singleness to marriage, parenting to past trauma, we get honest about the journey of untangling your identity from the approval of others.

You’ll hear us dive into:

The hidden control issues behind people-pleasing

Why “kindness” that costs you your peace is not love

The trap of performing for belonging

Over-apologizing and shrinking to keep the room comfortableHow resentment grows when love isn’t reciprocated

The void only God can fill

What it means to serve from love, not for it

The spiritual work of putting God first in relationships

The identity crisis when people no longer need you

Why enabling stunts growth (yours and theirs)

Reclaiming your voice, your limits, and your God-given identity

This episode is an invitation to step out of the cycle of earning love and into a healthier, holier, more grounded way of connecting—with God, with others, and with yourself.

If you’ve ever felt exhausted from being the strong one, the helper, or the fixer, this conversation will meet you right where you are.

In Search of Worth, We Often Turn to Those Whose Perspective Is as Limited as Our Own. -Amanda Sharp

In Episode 23, Amanda and Christy dive deep into the search for validation, self-worth, confidence, identity, and the internal battles that shape who we become.

This conversation confronts the patterns we build from childhood, the roles we learn to play to feel seen, and the ways external approval can derail our purpose, relationships, boundaries, and faith.

Together, they explore how false validation shows up through appearance, relationships, performance, comparison, and people-pleasing.

They break down the difference between validation and true support, why many stay in toxic environments, and how insecurity, jealousy, and fear can distort our choices.

This episode brings honest stories about marriage, career sabotage, boundaries, purpose, God’s guidance, community, healing, and rebuilding identity after losing yourself.

If you’re looking for a conversation around personal growth, emotional maturity, faith, purpose, transformation, self-leadership, and learning to rely on God rather than external approval, this episode will challenge and encourage you. Learn how to stop abandoning yourself, how to identify unhealthy validation cycles, and how to anchor your worth in who God created you to be.

Beware of being the answer people seek: you risk spreading confusion and feeding your ego. – Amanda Sharp

Are we truly helping people, or are we feeding our ego?

In this episode, we unpack the hidden dangers of becoming “the person with all the answers.”

We talk about why constantly giving advice can actually create confusion, block someone’s calling, and place us in a role we were never meant to fill.

We explore the art of asking better questions, why spiritual leadership should always lead people back to God, and how unchecked ego can quietly sabotage both our growth and theirs.

This conversation dives into:

• Why people seek answers from others instead of stepping into their purpose

• How giving advice can accidentally fuel fear, resistance, and confusion

• The importance of humility in leadership, ministry, and relationships

• Letting God guide instead of relying on human approval

• The danger of finding identity in being “the helper”

• Vision boards, dream boards, and letting God breathe life into the dreams He gave you

• How waiting, timing, faith, and consistency build a calling• Why keeping big dreams private during early stages protects your purpose

• The value of journaling, self-reflection, and letting God speak without outside noiseWe also share the behind-the-scenes story of how this podcast came to life, the lessons we learned from creating it quietly, and how every skill, setback, and season prepared us for this project.

If you’ve ever struggled with people-pleasing, over-explaining, giving too much advice, or feeling responsible for someone else’s transformation, this episode will challenge you to step back, listen deeper, slow down, and reconnect with God’s direction rather than human opinions.

LISTENING WITH DEPTH DEMANDS PATIENCE, OPENNESS, AND A GENUINE PURSUIT OF UNDERSTANDING, REFLECTING THE VERY BEST OF WHO WE ARE. - Amanda Sharp

Why we feel the urge to fix others (and what that reveals about us).

How true listening mirrors how we listen to God—quietly, openly, without agenda.

This episode will challenge how you communicate, love, and lead.If you’re ready to strengthen your relationships, create emotional safety, and become a person who truly hears others… this one’s for you.

“People can’t consistently act in ways that contradict their true identity.” - Amanda Sharp

Ever felt the tension between who you show the world and who you know you really are?

In this episode, Amanda and Christy unpack the battle between your old self and your true identity — the one rooted in faith, forgiveness, and purpose.

You’ll hear:

• How forgiveness (of yourself, others, and God) becomes the first step toward alignment
• Why your conscience and values can’t thrive in contradiction
• What happens when you start feeding the right “wolf” — peace, faith, and truth
• How social media and your inner circle subtly shape your identity
• Why integrity feels uncomfortable when you’ve been living out of sync

Whether you’re walking through transformation, letting go of old patterns, or simply craving deeper peace, this conversation will remind you: You are always at choice.

Listen in, reflect deeply, and ask yourself — which wolf am I feeding?
