Have you ever felt your life crumbling around you? Those moments when everything seems to fall apart simultaneously can be terrifying—but what if they're actually sacred beginnings?
In this deeply personal episode, Lizzy shares her recent experience of completely upending her life. From selling her family home of ten years to embrace a nomadic camper lifestyle with her husband and young children, to the emotional breaking point when their storage unit was broken into and the police never showed up after hours of waiting. That night, after months of holding everything together, she finally allowed herself to fall apart completely; crying for four straight hours in what became not just a breakdown, but a powerful breakthrough.
Through her raw, vulnerable storytelling, Lizzy reveals how these moments of coming undone can teach us our greatest lessons about strength, compassion, and authentic connection. She explores how vulnerability becomes power when we allow others to witness our true selves and hold us when we can't stand alone. Most importantly, she reminds us that emotions only live for 90 seconds in our bodies—unless we trap them inside by refusing to feel them.
Whether you're currently experiencing your own season of unraveling or sensing the pressure building beneath the surface, this episode offers gentle permission to break open and release what no longer serves you. Join us as we explore the transformative question: "If everything fell away, would I still be okay?" Your journey through difficult transitions becomes sacred when you trust that even in falling apart, you remain whole, safe, and held exactly where you need to be.
