The MOM Show with Courtney Doyle
In today's episode, Courtney sits down with author, speaker, and life coach Amy Loflin for a deeply honest and powerful conversation about fear, grief, and the way past pain can quietly shape how we love. Amy shares a pivotal moment from her motherhood journey—a brief but life-altering experience on the beach when she couldn't find her young son. While everything turned out fine, what surfaced in her heart revealed something deeper: she had been living in a state of anticipated grief—expecting loss before it ever came. Together, Courtney and Amy unpack how unresolved grief, fear, and trauma can cause us to hold our loved ones at arm's length… even when we don't realize it. But this conversation doesn't stay in the struggle. Amy shares how God gently revealed these patterns, led her into healing, and invited her into a life of deeper connection—one where fear no longer calls the shots. If you've ever felt like you're waiting for the other shoe to drop… If fear has kept you from being fully present… Or if you've experienced loss that still lingers… This episode will meet you right where you are—and point you back to freedom in Christ.
