Many call her the "best kept secret" in recovery, and after this conversation, you'll understand why.
Together, Elizabeth and Jeanne discuss why so many people stay stuck after getting sober, how unresolved trauma keeps us trapped in old patterns, and why true healing requires much more than willpower.

After taking a short break from the podcast, I'm back—and I have to tell you, something has shifted.
Have you ever reached a point where you realized you needed to change the way you were thinking, even though nothing around you had actually changed?
That's exactly where I found myself.
In this episode, I share how spending time with a wise friend reminded me that happiness isn't about perfect circumstances—it's about choosing peace, gratitude, and joy regardless of what's happening around us.
We talk about:
• Why life isn't fair—and why accepting that can actually set you free
• How comparison steals your joy (especially on social media)
• The daily habits helping me find more peace, including gratitude and meditation
• What the Book of Ruth has been teaching me about surrender and trusting God's plan
• Why taking a break can be one of the healthiest things you do
• How writing my memoir helped me see my own life with fresh eyes
• The power of forgiveness and letting go of what you can't control
If you've been feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or like you're comparing your life to everyone else's, this episode is for you.
Remember—you are not alone.
If this episode encouraged you, I'd be so grateful if you'd subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who needs a little hope today.

At just 14 years old, my guest, Sam West, was abandoned by his parents on the side of a country road. What happened next is nothing short of extraordinary.
In this episode of It's Bizzy, Sam shares how a ranch family took him in, how he found Jesus, built a career in law enforcement, and ultimately made the courageous decision to forgive the very parents who abandoned him. His story is a powerful reminder that our past does not have to define our future.
We also talk about faith, forgiveness, redemption, parenting, the loneliness so many people experience today, why love is stronger than resentment, and how trusting God can transform even the darkest moments into purpose.
If you've ever struggled with family wounds, rejection, abandonment, or finding hope after heartbreak, this conversation will encourage you and remind you that you are never alone.
In this episode we discuss:
• Being abandoned as a teenager
• Finding faith and purpose
• Forgiveness after deep family pain
• Law enforcement and serving others
• Why humility changes everything
• Living with hope instead of bitterness
• Trusting God through life's hardest seasons

In Episode 655 of It's Bizzy, I'm sharing one of the most honest and vulnerable conversations I've had with myself in a long time.
After spending the Fourth of July reflecting on where I've been and where I want to go, I realized something powerful: I've spent much of my life running—not physically, but emotionally. Running from discomfort, pain, uncertainty, and even myself. What if this season of my life isn't about changing other people or fixing the past? What if it's actually about changing me?
In this episode, I open up about:
• Why I'm taking the month of August off from podcasting
• Spending the Fourth of July alone and what I learned from the experience
• The life-changing lessons I took from reading God on a Harley
• How ego and judgment continue to show up in my everyday life (including a humbling encounter on the beach)
• Why I'm deleting social media from my phone and stepping away from the constant noise
• Learning to stop running away from uncomfortable emotions
• Trusting God instead of trying to control every outcome
• The power of beliefs and how fear can keep us from becoming who we're meant to be
• Reflecting on nearly 20 years of sobriety and believing that change is still possible
I'm sharing this episode because I know I'm not the only one who feels lost, stuck, fearful, or uncertain about what's next. Maybe the answer isn't running faster. Maybe the answer is finally sitting still long enough to hear what God has been trying to tell us all along.
If you've ever struggled with change, faith, judgment, anxiety, reinvention, sobriety, or learning to trust God's timing, this episode is for you.
Thank you for walking this journey with me. As always, let's continue to live loud and love big.

This special Fourth of July episode of It's Bizzy celebrates the spirit of the American Dream with one of my oldest friends and one of the most successful female entrepreneurs I know, Lisi Lerch.
For more than 25 years, Lisi has built a nationally recognized accessories brand from the ground up—starting with affordable Kentucky Derby hats and growing into a thriving business featuring jewelry, handbags, apparel, and boutiques across Pennsylvania and beyond. After leaving a career connected to Wall Street and launching her company in 2001 while her husband attended business school, Lisi turned a dream into a business empire while raising three children and staying grounded in her Catholic faith.
In this heartfelt and inspiring conversation, we discuss:
✨ How Lisi built her business from scratch and never gave up
✨ The role faith, family, and friendship have played throughout her journey
✨ Growing a company for 25 years while raising a family
✨ Why resilience and grit matter more than perfection
✨ Navigating anxiety, depression, and business setbacks
✨ Raising a daughter with Type 1 diabetes and finding strength through adversity
✨ Why supporting other women is more important than ever
✨ Entrepreneurship, motherhood, marriage, and the courage to keep going
✨ Why it's okay to not be okay—and how to find your way back
We also talk about the importance of affordable fashion, the rise of her iconic accessories brand, her beloved LibbyKat clothing line, and why she believes every challenge in life can become your greatest superpower.
Whether you're an entrepreneur, a parent, navigating a difficult season of life, or simply looking for encouragement this Fourth of July weekend, this conversation will remind you that resilience, faith, and love can carry you through almost anything.

As America celebrates its 250th birthday, I found myself asking a difficult but important question:
Can I allow this moment to be exactly as it is, even if I wish it were different?
In this deeply personal solo episode of It's Bizzy, I reflect on acceptance, faith, forgiveness, family, recovery, and learning to love imperfect things—including ourselves. From my own experiences with divorce, estrangement, recovery, and trusting God's plan, to reflections on our country and our shared humanity, this episode is about finding peace when life doesn't look the way we hoped it would.
We explore:
As we celebrate America's 250th birthday, perhaps the real question isn't whether life is perfect—but whether we can learn to love it anyway.
✨ Can you love something, even when you wish it were different?

• Growing up with alcoholism in the family
• Blackout drinking and alcohol dependency
• Recovery in your twenties
• Social media, anxiety, and mental health
• Family dysfunction, divorce, and healing

In Episode 650 of It's Bizzy, I sit down with Chris Pondoff, founder and host of Pondoff's Anonymous, Recovery Pastor at Underground Recovery Community in St. Louis, and a man whose life is a testament to the power of faith, recovery, and second chances.
Chris shares his journey from growing up in a culture where alcohol was everywhere to losing his father, hitting rock bottom, and eventually finding lasting sobriety. We talk about addiction, grief, faith, community, adoption, and what it really means to rebuild a life one day at a time.
One of my favorite parts of this conversation is hearing how Chris and his wife became foster parents and ultimately adopted their son—a powerful reminder that God's plans are often bigger than anything we can imagine.
We also discuss why long-term recovery is about so much more than putting down the drink, how community becomes medicine for those struggling with addiction, and why joy is still possible after even the darkest chapters of life.
In this episode, we discuss:
• Chris's recovery journey and 12 years of sobriety
• The loss of his father and its impact on his addiction
• Faith, healing, and spiritual transformation
• Why community is essential in recovery
• Adoption, family, and second chances
• Finding joy after addiction
• Long-term sobriety and personal growth
• Hope for anyone struggling with addiction or loving someone who is
If you or someone you love is struggling, this episode is a reminder that recovery is possible and that you are never alone.
