In this episode, Amy sits down with psychotherapist and author Lisa Gray for a transformative conversation about one of the most misunderstood parts of human connection: conflict.
Lisa explains why most of us were never taught how to handle conflict in a healthy way, and how that lack of skill quietly affects our relationships, workplaces, families, and friendships. Together, she and Amy explore how curiosity, communication, and emotional awareness can turn conflict into something healing instead of something harmful.
In this episode, Lisa and Amy discuss:
• Why avoiding conflict creates distance
• How curiosity can change the outcome of any hard conversation
• Childhood triggers and how they shape conflict styles
• How chronic illness impacts relationships
• Differentiating reaction from healthy response
• Why vulnerability makes conflict easier, not harder
• Tools for navigating conflict at home, work, and in community
Lisa also shares her work supporting couples and individuals with chronic illness, as well as insights from her books and therapeutic practice.
If you struggle with conflict, feel misunderstood, or want to communicate more authentically, this conversation will give you clarity, comfort, and practical tools to begin shifting your relationships.

Description

Holding Space with Authentically Amy isn’t a podcast you listen to for tips or takeaways.
It’s a space you enter.
A space where you don’t have to be okay.
Where you don’t have to know what to say.
Where nothing needs to be solved or explained.
This is what I needed when I was unraveling.
Not advice. Not noise. Just space.
Space to breathe.
Space to break down.
Space to exist without interpretation.
So I created it.
This podcast is an extension of my Authentically Amy series, where we talk about the things most people avoid.
The hard, tender, honest things that make us real. The things that crack us open and remind us that we’re not alone.
Some episodes are shared conversations.
Others are private sessions I reflect on anonymously.
But all of them are raw, human moments, held with care, not commentary.
Holding Space will help you remember what it means to be truly human, and that you’re not the only one feeling what you’re feeling.
If you're tired of pretending, if you're craving a place to lay it all down, this is for you.

Just presence.
