 Ever wish you had a safe space to start something new?

Welcome to New Day with Sybil Amuti (formerly The Great Girlfriends Show), an oasis where we begin again with courage. I’m Sybil Amuti, a passionate Christian, wife, mom, sister, friend, dog lover, and a woman who has spent the last decade building communities, teaching women how to sharpen their success toolkit, and doing the real work of growth in public. I love God and His people, and I bring that love into this space with clarity, conviction, and care so you feel seen, supported, and strong enough to move.

Here, I share hard-won breadcrumbs from my journey and sit down with extraordinary humans who are walking their evolution out loud. Together we trade practical wisdom, real-life resources, and fire-tested, proven solutions you can actually use to begin again boldly.

No pretending. No finish line. Just becoming, with intention.

  • New Day Ep 3 - The Novel you won't put down - If I Ruled the World by Amy DuBois Barnett

    New Day Ep 3 - The Novel you won't put down - If I Ruled the World by Amy DuBois Barnett
    Feb 17 2026
    Today’s episode is a conversation with award-winning author and cultural trailblazer Amy DuBois Barnett about her debut novel, If I Ruled the World, and what it means for women to stop following other people’s playbooks and write their own rules instead. We dive into story, strategy, and real-life wisdom for women who aren’t waiting for permission; they’re creating the path.

    In This Episode
    • What inspired Amy to turn a powerful idea into this story
    • How If I Ruled the World reflects women creating new systems instead of fixing old ones
    • The rules women’ve been told to follow and how we’re rewriting them
    • How creativity, courage, and community intersect in leadership and in life
    • Practical takeaways for listeners ready to lead, build, or break ground

    Practical Activation Steps
    1. Write your rule list: What “shoulds” are you retiring?
    2. Identify one area where you’ve followed someone else’s rule and replace it with yours
    3. Share your rule with a friend or write it publicly (because owning it increases impact)
    4. Choose one action this week that aligns with your new rule
    Episode Affirmations
    I am authorized to shape my life
    My rules reflect my truth
    I lead with intention

    Journal Prompt
    What rule have I been living by that isn’t mine, and what would happen if I rewrote it?

  • New Day Ep 2 - The Reason Why Momentum May Be Hard For You

    New Day Ep 2 - The Reason Why Momentum May Be Hard For You
    Feb 17 2026
    In this episode, I’m breaking down overthinking and why it quietly kills momentum.

    If you’ve been stuck in analysis, waiting for clarity, or afraid to choose wrong, this conversation explains what’s happening and how to get moving again. Overthinking feels responsible, but it’s often fear disguised as preparation. And the longer you stay in your head, the harder it becomes to trust your next step. This episode is about interrupting that loop and rebuilding momentum in real-time.

    In This Episode
    • Why overthinking is a fear response, not a strategy
    • How perfectionism delays progress
    • The real cost of waiting to feel ready
    • Why momentum creates clarity, not the other way around

    Practical Activation Steps1. Put a deadline on one decision you’ve been avoiding
    2. Ask for the next step, not the final outcome
    3. Use movement to reset your nervous system (walk, stretch, clean)
    4. Make one imperfect decision on purpose this week

    Affirmations
    I trust myself to decide and adjust
    Motion brings clarity
    I do not need certainty to begin

    Journal Prompt
    What decision have I delayed because I’m afraid to be wrong, and what changes if I choose anyway?

  • New Day Ep 1- Wake Up Your Power

    New Day Ep 1- Wake Up Your Power
    Feb 17 2026
    I'm back girlfriends, and it's a NEW DAY!

    In this premiere episode, I’m talking about what happens when we trade alignment for comfort and slowly disconnect from our own power. This conversation is about recognizing where you’ve been shrinking, over-accommodating, or choosing approval over truth and how to start reversing that pattern in real life, not just in theory. If you’ve felt stuck, drained, or unsure of yourself lately, this episode explains why and gives you practical steps to reconnect with your voice and your decisions.

    In This Episode
    • How “keeping the peace” can weaken self-trust
    • The signs you’re playing small without realizing it
    • Why power is built on self-trust, not confidence
    • What changes when you choose alignment over approval

    Practical Activation Steps1. Do a power audit: Identify one area where you’re avoiding honesty to stay comfortable

    2. Practice one direct statement this week without over-explaining
    3. Make one daily decision based on alignment, not approval


    Episode Affirmations
    I am safe to take up space
    I trust my decisions
    I choose alignment over approval


    Journal Prompt
    Where am I staying comfortable instead of being honest, and what would change if I stopped?
