Inspired by Taylor Swift’s I Can Do It With a Broken Heart (no, they can’t play it—licensing, besties), Amanda and Ashton unpack what it actually looks like to keep showing up when you’re devastated: heartbreak, grief, divorce, disappointment, burnout… and still having a calendar full of meetings, kids to care for, and responsibilities that don’t pause just because your heart is in pieces.

They talk about:

• The tension between “suck it up and push through” vs. honoring your emotions
• Why giving people grace matters (you never know what someone is carrying)
• The difference between dissociation as a survival skill and emotional suppression that eventually shows up in your body
• When you can power through—and when you truly need to fall apart and rest
• Practical ways to keep going without abandoning yourself: support systems, small reprieves, movement, creativity, boundaries, and asking for help

You’ll hear personal stories (including Amanda’s engagement ending and rebuilding her life, and Ashton’s honest truth about not always being able to “do it” with a broken heart), plus the reminder that sometimes simply getting up and carrying on is, in fact, magnificent.

If you’re in a season of grief or heartbreak, this one feels like a warm hug with a tiny bit of chaos… and a lot of permission.

Stay strong. You can do it with a broken heart.
