Amy shared a list of 7 questions you can ask to get to get to know someone better. She and Bobby Bones answered them during The Bobby Bones Show today!
1. What is something about you that you wish people knew?

- Amy - Wishes people knew she had ADHD and that she gets easily distracted.
2. Best piece of advice you’ve ever received?
- Bobby Bones - “You need to remember to make the main thing the main thing.” If you don’t make the main thing the main thing, all of the other stuff that only happens because of the main thing does not matter.
- Amy – It's from Robin Roberts and it’s “Make your mess your message.” If you’ve gone through something hard, don’t wallow it, ask yourself what you can get out of it positively.
3. What instantly brightens your day when you think about it?
- Bobby Bones - When Arkansas wins sports and especially when he’s there to witness it. Or laying on the ground with his dogs.
- Amy – Coffee.
4. What achievement are you most proud of?
- Bobby Bones – Writing two New York Time’s Best Seller Books, his honorary doctrine or buying his mother a trailer and two acres of land.
- Amy – Surviving 2021.
5. What’s the most trouble you’ve ever found yourself in?
- Bobby Bones – Being fined a million dollars by the FCC.
- Amy – When she almost burned her parents' house down. Her mom was out of town, and she had boys over and one of them threw a cigarette on the roof and it was a hot Texas day.
6. What was your upbringing like?
- Bobby Bones – He grew up poor and his mom was an addict, and his dad was gone, but he can appreciate it now because he would not be where he is now if it didn’t happen.
- Amy – Pretty average. She felt like she had a great life and then learned later that her parents were emotionally unavailable and she’s working on not being like that.
7. What do you need more of in your life?
- Bobby Bones – More self-acceptance, he has a big problem accepting that regardless of what he does it’s good enough and it does not matter. And don’t allow things that have happened in the past or what might happen in the future to ruin today.
- Amy – More concentration and belief in herself.
- Lunchbox – Money.
- Eddie – Time.
