Grow Anyway
Welcome to the Grow Anyway podcast—where healing gets honest, leadership gets personal, and emotional stability becomes part of your everyday rhythm. Hosted by Dr. Amy Oberg, psychologist, author, and founder of Hope & Health Hub, alongside her husband Dennis Oberg, lead pastor of Oasis Church and ministry coach, this podcast is where mental health meets faith and where struggle becomes seed for growth.
Dr. AO shares the origin story of Grow Anyway, unpack the seven core human struggles, and explain why they believe emotional regulation, spiritual resilience, and daily habits are essential for sanity in today’s overstimulated world. You’ll also hear how their personal lives, counseling practices, and church ministry all intersect around one simple truth: we don’t have to wait for perfect conditions to grow—we can grow anyway.
