In this episode of Case Studies, Casey sits down with Lizzy Jensen for a powerful conversation about identity, ambition, and the freedom that comes from letting go of the need to prove yourself. A law school graduate, former school leader, and host of The Lizzy Jensen Show, Lizzy reflects on the subtle ways achievement and approval shaped her early decisions, and what it took to outgrow them.

Together, they unpack the defining pivots in her life, from walking away from traditional career paths to stepping down from leadership at the height of momentum. Lizzy shares the discipline behind her decision making process, including the journaling and prayer that guide her clarity, and the deep rooted question that came to her in two different dreams while hiking the Inca trail in Peru: What do you really want?

As a mother of five, she speaks candidly about balancing meaningful work with family life, modeling confidence for her daughters, and choosing alignment over applause. She also shares her vision of building a value driven media company designed to amplify stories that strengthen families and leaders.

This episode is a thoughtful blueprint for entrepreneurs and high performers ready to trade performance for purpose and build a life that reflects who they truly are.
