In this solo episode of Lean In With Lizzy, Lizzy kicks off her first ever “Ask Me Anything” segment by responding to a vulnerable question from a listener named Julie, who shares, “I’m 57. I feel called to photography. I bought an expensive camera, and I haven’t touched it. Why am I so scared?”

What follows is one of Lizzy’s most empowering episodes to date - a masterclass on how to work with fear rather than against it. She breaks down why fear always shows up when you’re stepping into growth, and why it isn’t a stop sign, but a signal that something important is stirring.

Lizzy shares a practical decision making checklist to help listeners clarify their next steps, along with personal stories of her own moments of uncertainty; from starting a faith-based blog after law school to re-entering the public space after years away. Through it all, she offers powerful reminders: fear means you care, perfection is not the goal, and momentum only comes after you act.

Whether you’re starting a business, a creative pursuit, or a new chapter in your life, this episode is for anyone standing at the edge of something meaningful and wondering if they’re ready.
