Lizzy Brodie’s story is one of true reinvention.

From facing felony drug charges in her early 20s to becoming a respected entrepreneur, community builder, and mother. This episode dives into the raw, unfiltered journey of Lizzy Brodie, one of Denver’s premier events, marketing, and promotions consultants, and the creator of the Hustlers Brunch. 

We explore how grit, hip-hop, and hustle became her foundation for success, how she leveraged her past into purpose, and why her Hustlers Brunch movement has become one of the most impactful networking events for entrepreneurs.


In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • ✅ How to leverage your past without being defined by it
  • ✅ The mindset shifts every entrepreneur needs to grow
  • ✅ Building authentic communities that last
  • ✅ Why hustle alone isn’t enough—you need purpose & vision
  • ✅ Why consistency, authenticity, and relationships are everything.

If you’ve ever felt like your past might hold you back, this episode is proof that it can actually be the foundation to build something bigger.


🧩 Why It Matters:

This episode isn’t just about Lizzy’s story—it’s about how any entrepreneur can take their past, their passion, and their network, and build something bigger than themselves. It’s a blueprint for turning hustle into legacy.
