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 episode we have a fun and spontaneous conversation with our friend, Baiely Ruiz. What happens when we stop trying to control every detail and start trusting God in the unexpected moments of life? In this episode, we explore The Art of Spontaneity — learning how faith grows when we surrender our plans and remain open to divine interruptions.
From unplanned conversations to unexpected opportunities, spontaneity can become a powerful space where God moves, teaches, and transforms us. We’ll talk about discerning God’s voice in the moment, overcoming fear of uncertainty, and embracing the freedom that comes from trusting His direction instead of our own agendas.
Join us for an honest and encouraging conversation about living with open hands, a willing heart, and the courage to follow where God leads — even when it’s unscripted.
Love your,
Amigas!

Hola Amiga!
In today's episode our guest, Christianne explores writing not just as a skill, but as a calling—one that reflects creativity rooted in God’s own nature. She opens by reminding listeners that the first storyteller is God Himself, who authored creation with intention, beauty, and purpose. From this perspective, writing becomes an act of worship: a way to mirror His truth, express His love, and bring light into the world.
Christianne shares practical insights on developing a consistent writing habit, encouraging listeners to begin with prayer and invite the Holy Spirit into their creative process. She emphasizes that writing doesn’t have to be perfect to be powerful—God often works through our imperfections to communicate His message. Whether journaling, storytelling, blogging, or devotional writing, she urges writers to focus on authenticity over performance.
A key theme in the episode is overcoming fear and self-doubt. Christianne addresses common struggles like writer’s block and comparison, grounding her advice in Scripture—reminding listeners that their identity and worth are found in Christ, not in external validation. She encourages writers to see their words as seeds that God can use to encourage, heal, and inspire others.
The episode closes with a gentle challenge: to write faithfully, even when no one is watching, trusting that God sees every effort and can multiply it beyond what we imagine. Christianne leaves listeners with the reminder that writing, when surrendered to God, becomes more than expression—it becomes ministry.

Amigas!

Hola Amiga,
In today’s episode The Art of Poetry, we explore poetry as a spiritual practice—how scripture reading becomes a sacred space to process our emotions. We draw inspiration from the Psalms, where we see how poetry can serve as prayer and giving voice to emotions before God.
We talk about how poetry can become a spiritual discipline—similar to journaling or contemplative prayer. We discuss how scripture reminds us that when words fail, the Spirit intercedes, and how poetry can give language to what feels unspoken. Writing becomes a way to sit with emotions instead of suppressing them, allowing God to meet us in the process.
You are invited to embrace writing as a spiritual discipline, using poetry to reflect, release, and connect with the Divine. Whether journaling, composing verses, or whispering prayers through metaphor, this episode shows how words can become sacred offerings that transform the heart.
Love your,
Amigas!

Hola Amiga,
In today's episode we have our friend Kelly on to talk about discipleship. Discipleship is more than a class, a checklist, or a church program—it’s a lifelong journey of following Christ and helping others do the same. In this episode, we explore what it truly means to live out the call of Jesus Christ as seen in The Holy Bible, and how discipleship becomes an art formed through intention, relationship, and obedience.
We’ll unpack the essential rhythms of spiritual growth—prayer, Scripture, accountability, and mentorship—and discuss how everyday moments become opportunities for transformation. Whether you’re being discipled or discipling others, this conversation will challenge you to move from passive belief to active, intentional faith.
Discover how discipleship shapes character, deepens conviction, and multiplies impact—because following Jesus was never meant to be done alone.
Love your,
Amigas!

Hola Amiga,
Creativity isn’t just a spark—it’s a rhythm. In this episode of The Art of Creativity, we explore how to move beyond waiting for inspiration and start weaving creativity into the flow of everyday life. From morning rituals to mindful pauses, we unpack practical ways to create sustainable creative rhythms that support your energy, focus, and imagination.
This conversation also invites faith into the process, recognizing God as the ultimate Creator and an active presence in our daily rhythms. We talk about what it looks like to create with God—inviting prayer, listening, and spiritual intentionality into your creative habits. When creativity becomes an act of partnership rather than pressure, it opens space for deeper purpose, peace, and trust.
Whether you’re an artist, entrepreneur, or simply craving more creative expression, this episode encourages you to see creativity as both a spiritual practice and a daily discipline. Small, intentional habits can lead to meaningful ideas, reduced burnout, and a creative life rooted in grace rather than striving.
Creativity isn’t something you find—it’s something you practice. And when God is invited into the rhythm, creativity becomes an act of worship.
Love your,
Amigas!

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
