Nashville Podcast Network

Feeling Things with Amy & Kat is a podcast for anyone who’s ever had feelings—or wants to. Hosted by Amy Brown and therapist Kat Van Buren, this is a space where nothing is off-limits. From deep reflections on childhood to pop culture obsessions to what’s happening in the world, all feelings deserve a seat at the table—big, small, awkward, joyful, confusing, and everything in between. At its core, it’s real friends having real conversations about real feelings. Some episodes go deep, some stay light, but all are rooted in curiosity, honesty, and connection. In a world that moves fast, sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is pause... and feel things.

4 Things with Amy Brown

Do you touch your hair or fidget with your jewelry at work? We're breaking down a communication expert's take on small nervous habits, twirling your hair, fixing your earrings, playing with loud bangles, and why these tiny, seemingly harmless movements can unintentionally read as nervousness or even flirtation to the people around you. 
 
We talk about the upcoming Verity movie and get into 7 research-backed morning habits that couples who stay in love tend to share, from a 6-second kiss to connecting before checking your phone.
 
We got a sweet DM from a listener grateful for the show's prep work ahead of Kat's baby, a hilariously dark confession about making a younger sibling cry on purpose as a kid, and a whimsical mental reframe for creating your own "golden ticket" to a great day.
 
We're also continuing our Hasbro Moment series, this week honoring a school librarian who creates a true sense of community for her students, and celebrating how games like Jenga, Scrabble, and Trivial Pursuit sneak in real learning through play.
 
Hasbro is sponsoring Feeling Things for 8 weeks, celebrating back to school by getting families around the table with games again.
 
Even better: they're helping us honor amazing teachers! Know one? Email heythere@feelingthingspodcast.com or call 877-207-2077, they could get featured on the show, plus a $500 Walmart gift card from Hasbro for classroom supplies.

What Your Fidgeting Says About You + 7 Morning Habits of Happy Couples

You can be loved, surrounded, and constantly connected — and still feel profoundly unmet. In this solo episode, Amanda unpacks the difference between solitude, isolation, and loneliness, and why loneliness isn't about lacking people — it's information.
 
Drawing on her public health background (and the loneliness research she presented to Amazon during the pandemic), Amanda explores why this "epidemic" has only deepened since 2021, and connects it to the current astrology — Saturn and Neptune both retrograde in Aries — asking us to grow up and soften at the same time.
 
In this episode, Amanda covers:
 
 • The real difference between nourishing solitude and protective isolation
 • Why loneliness can happen in a crowded room, a marriage, or a community
 • How to stop pathologizing your loneliness and start listening to it
 • The question to ask instead: 
what kind of connection am I actually hungry for? • Where you might be performing connection instead of experiencing it

What's God Got To Do With It?: Acting As If (DOING) When What You Say Doesn't Align With What You Do

You are brilliant. 
 
You don’t think you are, but you are. 
 
The exact way that you move through the world, that you love others, that you dress, that you speak, that you take care of people, that you create and make and dance and laugh is magical and needed and utterly irreplaceable.
 
The problem is you’re second-guessing it. You’re downplaying it. 
 
You tell yourself that you don’t want to be too arrogant or think too highly of yourself. 
 
You don’t want to stand up too tall or shine too brightly. 
 
This is your reminder to shine EXACTLY THAT BRIGHT. To shine so brightly that you feel like an absolute fool. 
 
We need you, your heart, your essence and all of your magic.

Write Your Story: Stop Doubting Your Brilliance

A listener wants to know the difference between relating to someone's story and accidentally one-upping them, where does connection end and competition begin? 
 
We also tackle a tricky friendship dilemma: a listener whose friend gets loud, aggressive, and mean when she drinks too much on trips, and now keeps inviting herself along to group vacations. 
 
And finally, we answer a heartfelt letter from a bride whose engagement season has been completely overshadowed, first by a wave of friends getting engaged around the same time, and now by her own dad's upcoming wedding.

One-Upping vs. Relating, a Friend Dilemma & a Stolen Spotlight (Couch Talks)

Amy bought Glen Powell's ketchup on a whim at the store and there’s so much more to this then we realized. We get into his wild journey from a childhood ketchup trauma to co-founding his own organic condiment brand, Smash Kitchen.
 
Kat unpacks family systems for us and the different roles people tend to fall into growing up, the Hero, the Mascot, the Lost Child, the Placater, and the Scapegoat, and talk through why the "truth teller" of the family so often ends up labeled as the problem.
 
We also talk about a psychological trick called the Benjamin Franklin Effect, the surprising reason people actually like you more when you ask them for a small favor, not the other way around.
 
Plus, we share an incredibly touching story from a Hasbro Moment listener whose autistic son found connection and confidence through simple board games like Hi Ho! Cherry-O and Hungry Hungry Hippos, thanks to a teacher who knew exactly what he needed.
 
Hasbro is sponsoring Feeling Things for 8 weeks, celebrating back to school by getting families around the table with games again.

How to Get People to Like You More + Why Glen Powell Couldn't Eat Ketchup for Years

What if the best moment of your life isn't a future milestone — but today? In this solo episode, Amanda explores what it really means to be soulful: not the extraordinary or transcendent, but the ordinary — a song on the radio, a waiting room, a hard conversation you didn't run from.
 
Amanda reflects on presence, discernment, and the difference between performing a soulful life and actually living one — including how grief, pain, and uncertainty (what she calls "the hallway") can be some of the most soulful teachers we have.
 
In this episode, Amanda covers:
 
 • What "soulfulness" actually feels like in everyday moments — big and small
 • Why discernment (not authenticity) is the real practice
 • How to sit with uncertainty instead of rushing through it
 • Why pain and grief can crack us open into deeper presence
 
Ask yourself this week: where are you finding your soul?

Write Your Story: The River Within: A Conversation w/ Ruthie Lindsey

PART 2 of 4: Ever wonder why your thoughts and feelings don't sync up? Amy & Leanne share a fresh-yet-totally-doable approach that will help you reclaim the reins of confusing thoughts in our head…so that stepping into WHO YOU WANT TO BE actually becomes possible!

In PART 2 you learn:

- Why it's not your CIRCUMSTANCES that dictate your reality, it's your THOUGHTS, and how every single thought CAUSES a feeling-- not the other way around.
- Why your Self Image knows how you really feel, so before you can "act as if" or "believe a new reality", it's got to FEEL good, FEEL true, and resonate.
- How to truly flip "negative emotions" on their head and find the gold in what it's trying to teach you.

What's God Got To Do With It?: Acting As If (FEELING) When Your Thoughts Don’t Match How You Feel

A listener had a mortifying public moment...and somehow ended up on a date because of it. You'll have to hear the full story to believe it. It’s so crazy and we’d feel so embarrassed, but also grateful?? Haha. 
 
We hear from a caller who confesses she pre-cleans her house before the cleaners arrive, and yes, you are not alone if you do this too. A listener encourages Amy to cut her hair, plus we answer a question that was asked by many: what is a drink dropper?! 
 
We also get into a tricky question from a listener who works as an overnight cleaner: she found something disturbing left behind by a group of teens at a school she cleans, and now feels strangely embarrassed to even report it to her male supervisor. We try to unpack where that shame is coming from.
