61 Exchange was born from a deep desire to help people break free from isolation and discover the transformative power of God’s grace. We know that struggles—whether they involve addiction, trauma, grief, or doubt—can often feel overwhelming, but we also know that God is in the business of restoration. Our platform is a place where individuals can share their stories of hope and healing, finding encouragement in others’ experiences and strength in their own.
At 61 Exchange, we believe that every story has the power to heal, inspire, and transform. Our mission is to create a space where women can share how Jesus has brought beauty from the ashes of their lives. Through the power of personal testimonies, we foster a community that offers support, encouragement, and spiritual growth.
Our Mission: Sharing Stories of Redemption and Hope
OUR CORE VALUES
Faith in Jesus
We believe that Jesus is the ultimate source of healing and redemption.
Transformation
We know that sharing our stories leads to personal and spiritual transformation.
Community
We foster a supportive, non-judgmental space for individuals to share and grow together.
Grace
We encourage vulnerability, embracing the grace of God that meets us where we are.
So why share your story?
Your story has the power to change everything for someone else. At 61 Exchange, we believe in the biblical truth of Revelation 12:11, “They overcame by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony.” When we pause to remember what God has done—and share it with others—we strengthen our faith and show others He’s still at work.
Amy Boland Hauser
Founder of 61 Exchange
Amy Boland Hauser is the founder of 61 Exchange, a faith-rooted platform inspired by the promise of Isaiah 61:3: “to bestow on them a crown of beauty for ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair.” This scripture fuels Amy’s passion to create spaces where women can encounter hope, exchange stories, and be reminded that God brings purpose out of pain and strength out of struggle.
With a background in ministry, media, and leadership, Amy has helped launch nonprofit organizations, served in tour marketing and management, and spoken at conferences and gatherings across the country. She has a gift for connecting people to vision and creating environments where transformation can take root.
Alongside her husband, Golden Globe and Emmy Award-winning actor Paul Walter Hauser, Amy has also shared her family’s journey through platforms like I Am Second, impacting audiences with a message of redemption, resilience, and faith.
Through 61 Exchange, Amy continues her mission of turning isolation into connection. By weaving together storytelling, practical tools, and her own life experiences, she encourages others to walk in the freedom and joy found in Jesus.
At home, Amy treasures life with Paul and their three children. Whether through motherhood, ministry, or creative projects, she seeks to live out the call of Isaiah 61—to exchange ashes for beauty and remind others of the hope that never fails.
