You Are More Podcast | Faith, Mindset, Purpose, Success
Have you ever felt stagnant or unfulfilled in your professional life, despite achieving what others would consider "success"? Do you find yourself wondering if there's more to life than the daily grind? Are you looking for guidance and inspiration that speaks directly to your quest for a more purpose-driven and faith-filled life?
Hi, I’m Amy Wienands: wife, mom of twins, and the CEO of Amy Wienands Real Estate. I strive to bring you inspiration, revelation and encouragement to walk in the life you were called to walk into because…You Are More. In this weekly podcast, we will explore themes of mindset transformation, finding your true purpose, and integrating faith into everyday life, bringing you expert interviews, inspiring stories, and practical tips.
When I was 49 I had a moment. Here I was a professional success in the high-stakes world of real estate. I had navigated the ups and downs of building a thriving business. I had killed it and yet, I remember feeling…
Empty. Frustrated. Stuck on the treadmill of life.
I remember thinking, what if I climbed and climbed this ladder only to find it's leaning against the wrong wall?
I felt a deep sense of calling to make a positive impact in the world but was unsure of where to start.
I have seen the faithfulness of God in every season. Through my own experience of feeling unfulfilled and called to a bigger purpose, I discovered the transformative power of mindset, purpose, and faith. This revelation changed my approach to life and success, leading me to start this podcast. Now, I want to share the insights, stories, and guidance I've gathered with you.
If you're looking to build a life that not only succeeds on the surface but is also rich with purpose and guided by faith, You Are More is where you'll find it. Whether you're a professional seeking more than just success, a dreamer chasing a deeper meaning, or anyone in between, this podcast is here to guide you towards building a life that truly wins.

Reframe It: Life Is Happening FOR You—Not TO You!
Hey friends—can you believe we’re already at the end of summer?! I know the transition into a new season can stir up all kinds of feelings—uncertainty, excitement, even disappointment. That’s why I wanted to slow things down in this episode and share something that has helped me over and over again:
“When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”
We dive into a powerful parable—the story of the Chinese farmer—and how it challenged me to stop labeling every moment as good or bad, and instead trust that maybe yes, maybe no, it’s all working for my good. 💫
I also share one of my favorite mindset shifts: the story of Acres of Diamonds. So often, we’re chasing what we think we’re missing, when the very thing we need is right in front of us. Whether it’s your marriage, your kids, your job, or your health, there’s treasure right under your feet—you just have to shift your perspective to see it.
You’ll hear stories from my week, reminders about getting out of a victim mindset, and the importance of speaking life over your “I have to’s” by turning them into “I get to’s.”
So if you’ve been stuck in comparison, discouragement, or chasing something that’s always just out of reach, this episode is your reminder that you already have what you need. Flip the narrative. Speak life. Trust the timing. You truly are more.
