She dives into the importance of shifting the narrative around disempowering beliefs, such as feeling not enough, unworthy, undeserving, or unimportant. The conversation explores the roots of these beliefs and provides actionable strategies to break free from their grip.

A key theme is the significance of community in the healing process, especially for women. Amy shares her perspective on the role of community in overcoming feelings of fraudulence, the struggle with a lack of community, and the experience of feeling uniquely broken.
