Amiga Arise | Awaken Identity. Discover Freedom. Journey With God.
Hola Amiga, this is Priscilla Gomez and Haley Martnick, your hosts for the Amiga Arise Podcast. Haley and I are two women of faith, and who are called to care for others. We are passionate about educating, empowering and equipping women of all ages and backgrounds to deepen their relationship with self, God and others. Priscilla and I have our own unique testimonies, and that God beautifully brought us together to share the same freedom we experienced in our walk with Christ. This podcast is discipleship, an invitation to awaken your true self, find God’s presence, and allow His love to transform each part of your life. Priscilla is a Licensed Clinical Therapist who entered this field to help others find healing from emotional wounds and trauma, but she quickly realized true healing was not possible without the love of God. She has then introduced faith into her treatment care for others and invites all to journey with God for their well-being. Haley has her Masters in Leadership Studies with an emphasis in Spiritual Formation. She is a Mentor, Spiritual Director, and Creative! Haley seeks for all to discover freedom and their royal identity in Christ. Her heart is to mentor youth and counsel women in all seasons of life. She believes every person has a beautiful calling on their life and wants to walk with others into their true, whole beloved self. We will tackle hard conversations and explore a wide range of topics related to spirituality, psychology and relationships. We will be using our educational background and experience in mental health, theology and leadership to challenge current norms, broaden your awareness, and encourage your faith. We invite you to embark on this journey together. We promise to have fun, learn, laugh, cry and pray together. Connect with us: Instagram: Amigaarise Facebook: Amiga Arise Email: Amigaarise@gmail.com

Hola Amiga,
In today's first episode of our new series of The Art of Daily Rhythms, we explore the process of entering our own lives with intention—the desire to be fully present with God, with ourselves, and with others. This is an invitation into formation: allowing God to gently shape our lives into the wholeness and health He designed from the beginning.
Together, we reflect on what it means to notice God in both the ordinary and the extraordinary moments of daily life. Rather than striving or fixing, this rhythm is about attentiveness, surrender, and trust—learning how to live awake to God’s presence as He forms us in quiet, faithful ways.
This episode sets the foundation for a journey into spiritual rhythms, holy habits, and a slower, more intentional way of walking with God each day.
We are excited about this series & we hope you are too!
Love,
Your Amigas

In this finale episode, we look back on meaningful moments, celebrate the people who’ve walked beside us, and honor the quiet but powerful ways friendship brings joy to our lives. It’s a gentle reminder to cherish the ones who’ve stayed, encouraged, and loved us through every season.

Hola Amiga,
In today’s episode, Priscilla brings on her dear friend Sahar Whitt to share their God-appointed friendship. We share how the unexpected ways God weaves relationships into our lives when we choose to follow His leading. In this episode, we unpack how simple acts of obedience can open the door to deep, meaningful friendships that shape our faith, our purpose, and our journey with Christ.
Our friendship story will be one we continue to tell because we love to share how God showed up when we least expected it, and it has changed our lives profoundly for the better. We pray that this episode blesses you.
Love your,
Amigas!

Hola Amiga!
I’m today’s episode, Haley enters a beautiful conversation with her dear friend Kristine. Kindness is a marker for their friendship and they share how the act of kindness and honesty can move mountains in ways far beyond what we could imagine. There is so much power in being kind to one another - friends, family, strangers, yourself - and we are not to discount the fruit that kindness gives. Connected with kindness, honesty is a path of healing, trust, and breakthrough. Becoming honest with yourself, with others, and the Lord forms a life of freedom where our true self is revealed and received. We are designed to do life together knowing that shame, guilt, or fear is not a part of the equation but love. We hope you enjoy and learn to cultivate a life of friendships rooted in kindness, honesty, and love.
Love your,
Amigas!

Hola Amiga,
Today we bring on a couple of our Spiritual Mothers, Cherisse Sayer and Nikki Blanchard to share with you their walk with the Holy Spirit. They share the beauty of knowing how to engage and listen to The Third Person of the Holy Trinity: The Holy Spirit. Cherisse and Nikki remind us that it is not “weird” to hear from the Holy Spirit and remind us that we are a dwelling place for His Spirit, when we have accepted The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in our lives.
Haley and I have learned so much from both of them, we lean on them for guidance, and we glean from their wisdom. We know that this episode will also be a blessing to you all! Take a listen and take some notes, you don’t want to miss it!
Love your,
Amigas!

Hola Amiga,
Priscilla and Haley bring the great Pam Lowe. She comes on to share her wealth of knowledge on the beauty of building friendships that last past the test of time.
Pam shares what she has learned over her lifetime, and the questions she had to ask herself to ensure she was tending to the “garden” of the friendships she was building and holding.
Here are the questions to ask yourself:
How good of friend am I?
Am I the type of friend I would want?
Am I available?
Can I keep a secret?
Do I speak truth in love?
How are my motives…what prompts me into a friendship?
Do I lift up my friends or pull them down?
Do I draw them closer to God, or farther away?
Pam was such a treat and blessing to have on our podcast, we know you will blessed by her wisdom!
Love your,
Amigas!

Hola Amiga,
Priscilla and Haley share their hearts behind Season 3 “The Joy of Conversation & Friendship.” Jesus models the perfect friendship for us, and we get to emulate the Heart of the Father in our own friendships and relationships. Relationships can be challenging, but we can always look to the Father to help us serve in relationships rather than seeking what we can get out of it.
In today’s episode Priscilla and Haley get real and vulnerable about the beauty of friendship, and what God is constantly teaching through relationships. God is a relational God, and He wants to give us good and healthy relationships, so what can we do to ensure we are walking in healthy and beautiful fellowship with one another as He commands us? Listen in, and we hope you find some encouragement!
Love your,
Amigas!
