Living in 3D Power Podcast

About the Podcast

Discover your truth, discern your path, and determine your future to transform your life and leadership through the power of liberatory questions.

Every episode of Living in 3D Power is designed to inspire transformation through self-discovery and values-driven action. You’ll find deeply personal stories, thought-provoking conversations with Amber’s 10-year-old daughter, and practical strategies rooted in the 3D Power Tools Framework.

Join me on this journey as we reconnect with our own natural inclinations and (re)discover the person we were created to be. Here’s how each episode unfolds:

  • We start by diving into the weekly questions Amber poses on social media—the Curiosity Cards. These questions are intentionally crafted to guide us through the three phases of the 3D Power Tools Framework: Discovery, Discernment, and Determination.

    Amber will reflect on how these questions have shaped her own journey and why she is posing them for that week. This segment invites you to reflect on your own values, strengths, and needs as you navigate your path.

  • Amber will be joined by her 10-year-old daughter, Emma, for a heartwarming and insightful segment. Emma offers her perspective, reminding us of the joy, wisdom, and unfiltered truth that come from sitting with our youth.

    Her reflections bring a fresh and playful lens to life’s big questions, bridging the gap between adult complexities and childlike curiosity.

  • We close with practical steps inspired by Emma’s answers. These takeaways are designed to help you apply the insights from our conversation to your life, leadership, and community.
