As the Lenten season begins, we're invited into a rhythm of reflection, longing, and anticipation. But for many of us, Lent can feel like another spiritual obligation—a practice we're supposed to get right. What if, instead of striving, Lent was about making space for God's presence and living in the reality of resurrection hope?In this episode of the Simply Wholehearted Podcast, Sally Breedlove and Willa Kane join me for a rich conversation about what it means to live as an Eighth Day person—someone who is grounded in the truth of Christ's resurrection while still walking through the realities of suffering, longing, and hope.Episode Highlights:Why Lent is more about longing than legalism.How “Scripture-soaked prayer” can shape our faith.The meaning of the “8th day” and how it transforms our daily lives.The power of community and prayer in seasons of darkness.Embracing resurrection hope even when life feels unfinished.Resources Mentioned:Eighth Day Prayers Daily Mercy for Lent and Eastertide Eighth Day Prayers Daily Hope for Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany Eighth Day Prayers Daily Joy for Ordinary Times Learn more about Willa and Sally, their books, and their ministry.RESOURCES FOR YOU:Wholehearted Enneagram Coachinghttps://bit.ly/SWcoachingcollectiveEnnea-what?

How do you feel about the body you're living in? Summer is about to begin and as the weather warms, we wear less and show more of our bodies, but for many of us that ramps up negative feelings because we're not happy with how our bodies look.

This week's guest is the host of the Simply Wholehearted Podcast, Amy Wicks!  Amy is also a Wholehearted Living Coach who works as a faith-based enneagram coach for female entrepreneurs to create life-giving rhythms for thriving relations and a business they love.   In today's episode we discuss with Amy how she got into the Enneagram.  She loves the framework of this personality test, getting to know people better and falling in love with how people think differently, and why they do what they do.   We just love how Amy describes the tool of the Enneagram.  She says, “The Enneagram amplifies the light and Christ brings the Freedom.” So good!  Amy covers the basics of the Enneagram, the nine points of the core personalities and how you can use this resource. It can help you learn how you respond to stress, healthy situations and relationally. What separates the Enneagram personality from others is it helps you learn your childhood message and how it plays a part in who you are today. We love how Amy digs a bit more into this aspect and how it can help you in your life now and as you mother your children.   Motherhood feels different for all women and understanding the Enneagram and yourself a little better, helps you understand why motherhood looks differently on others. Motherhood can feel limiting to some and life-giving to others.    Amy leaves us with some incredible resources to learn more as well as ways to connect with her!

You know how I like to ask our podcast guests what their life looks if we could peek in their window? Well, this episode is a two-part peek inside my window and life with my family. As I've approached the five-year mark of the Simply Wholehearted Podcast, I've been dreaming of what to do to celebrate. I decided to have my family on the anniversary episode, to talk about our first family trip to Disneyland that was scheduled to happen right before this special anniversary. In this episode, we spend some time chatting about what doing at trip with different enneagram types present is like!Now, first of all, it's important for you to know this is not going to be your typical episode. Less polished, less formal, more messy, loud and imperfect, and likely relatable to your own motherhood. I'm guessing I'm not the only one whose kids get crazy in a time you were wishing they weren't!But, this out-of the norm episode is very special to me and I hope you will find it humorous, entertaining and celebratory. Because my dear wholehearted friend, if it wasn't for you I wouldn't have a reason to podcast or to show up week after week the last FIVE years. Goodness! I'm so ecstatic that I get to do this work, have these conversations and create space for this community. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart and I hope you'll appreciate this authentic, behind the scenes look.  Follow Amy on IGAmy's WebsiteCheck out the new Wholehearted Enneagram shop hereSign up for a FREE 15 minute call with Amy to see if Faith-based Enneagram Coaching is a good fit for you this season of your life!

Have you ever wondered if you should write your story? Or rather, have you wondered if you should publish your story? Maybe it's a story that weaves the reader through idyllic settings and simplistic relational issues, or perhaps it's the story you lived to tell about and the reason you have hope. I know that over 5.5 years ago when I started Simply Wholehearted, I wasn't sure how to write, publish and share a book, but then I discovered hope*writers. Back in the day, it was just a podcast, and they were opening their doors to a group of wannabe writers who could learn from the experts and sojourn with like-minded friends. Since the hope*writers have become an outstanding community of thousands whose mission is to help you determine where you are on the writing journey and get you to your next path. Not only are they helping fellow writers like me, but they also were a partner in last month's Wholehearted Enneagram Summit. The hope*writers team is so amazing to work with. We decided I should record a special episode to conclude the 16th season of the podcast- Today's conversation is with Carla H. Hayden, Chief Operating Officer of h*w. She also happens to be an Enneagram Eight and incredibly well-versed in Enneagram insight. This conversation was so good because we chatted about my top 3 fav things, faith, enneagram, and writing. We also tackle the emotional struggle that might be getting in the way of creating the writing rhythm you desire. Carla is your go-to for clarity and the courage boost you might need. I'm fairly confident you will really enjoy this conversation and be excited to have Carla back on the podcast sometime soon!Here are a few FREE resources from hope*writers to help you! (psst you can get all of them!) 30- second quiz to see what stage you are at as a writer. 10 Questions to ask yourself before you write a book.If you want to grow an email list, but don't know where to start, here's a template for you.

This is a conversation I have secretly been wanting to have for a very long time now. As you know, the way we approach our fitness and nutrition is all wrapped up in our mindset and our motivations, and even our personality.  Having spent years coaching hundreds and hundreds of women, I have seen it time and time again, that our individual personalities and the lens through which we interact with the world completely impacts how we show up for ourselves. And the more we can understand how we've been wired and what motivates us individually, the more success we'll experience with our habits.    So on today's episode I've got Amy Wicks with me. Amy is a faith-based Enneagram Coach, speaker, and writer who lives in Kansas City with her family. She is the voice of the weekly Simply Wholehearted Podcast and has co-authored several books and is just releasing her first solo book titled Should Christians Use the Enneagram. She and I have an excellent conversation about how each enneagram type can tap into their strengths to make the most progress and take care of their bodies best. This is one you'll want to listen to over and over again.    MORE RESOURCES:  Click here to register for Amy's Wholehearted Enneagram Summit  Click here to grab the Enneagram Virtual Summit All Access Pass  Connect with Amy and discover more at www.simplywholehearted.com  Should Christians Use the Enneagram?

Friend, you have been fearfully and wonderfully made by God. You are unique and there is nobody else in the entire world that can walk in your calling. Only you can and God has plans for your life. I love that passage in Psalms. I’d like to leave you with it and encourage you that God created you for a purpose and not only that, He created you because He loves you. “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;    your works are wonderful,    I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you    when I was made in the secret place,    when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body;    all the days ordained for me were written in your book    before one of them came to be. How precious to me are your thoughts, God!    How vast is the sum of them! Were I to count them,    they would outnumber the grains of sand—    when I awake, I am still with you.” Psalm 139:14-18 I hope you’ll join me next week when I talk with another woman who is taking action where her passion, compassion, and conviction intersect. Until then, friend, have a blessed week and I’ll talk to you soon… Catch some of my previous episodes: Episode 34: Living Our Purpose with Promise with guest Laurie Stroup Smith 33: The Good Fruit of Comparison and the Gift of Sabbath Rest with guest Amber Cullum 32: The Mentor Mom: Loving Our Teens & Adult Kids Well with Guest Meg Glesener
