Show Notes

Have you ever had a fear of public speaking yet pulled the trigger, set the fears behind you, and decided not to let that fear get in your way and be yourself? Did you decide to go ahead and speak on stages and podcasts? Well, today’s guest, Amy Hesper, has done just that. Listen and get insights on going beyond your fears and speaking your message to the world. Somebody is eagerly waiting to inspire or help them with your message, but your fear is robbing them of that opportunity. 

Amy Hesper is a rabbit rescue mom, a spirit-led fluid artist, an encourager, and an entrepreneur. She considers her faith the foundation of life, followed by her family and friends. Amy currently lives in Gulfport, Mississippi, with her husband, eight rescue rabbits, and a crazy cat named Puma.

Amy creates visual meditations and spiritual connections through her art. When she is not writing devotionals or creating, she enjoys connecting with nature outdoors, watching wildlife, networking with other business owners, and encouraging and supporting others. Amy believes that any creative outlet can change you and the world around you.
