  • Episode 85 - We Can't Solve It All

    We’d love to hear from you! Send us a text!

    Many moms are natural born FIXERS and we want to help ease any burdens our children face. But is that what our children really need from us?  Elizabeth sits down (for part 2 of a 3 part series) with Kim Anderson, certified therapist, coach, author and speaker who boldly shares that most of what we do in hard moments is about OUR discomfort, not our children's!  And that what they need from us is not perfection, but our steady presence. She unpacks how our nervous system is what sets the temperature in the room and how important it is to understand that a dysregulated mom, cannot regulate a dysregulated child. If you have ever wanted to bulldoze the rocky path for your child, then this episode is for you!  You may find Kim at elevatemoms.com

  • Episode 84 - The Mental Load

    We’d love to hear from you! Send us a text!

    Most women, especially those who are moms, have bought the lie that “good moms do it all!" And a lot of us are exhausted because we are carrying more than we were meant to carry. Elizabeth sits down (for part 1 of a 3-part series) with Kim Anderson, certified therapist, coach, author, and speaker, to unpack this very important topic. After years of working with women, Kim offers great insight and wisdom into how we can practically share this load that is burning us out.  Be sure to check out her 5 Truth Bombs for the Burnt-Out Mom here:  https://community.elevatemoms.com/burnout

  • Episode 83 - Dream Day

    We’d love to hear from you! Send us a text!

    Are you moving through life on autopilot - one busy day, one passing year at a time? Deep down, we know we were created for more. We were designed with purpose, intention, and a unique calling… yet somewhere along the way, the noise of life drowned out our vision. We stopped dreaming. We stopped imagining days filled with meaning and joy. Elizabeth’s conversation with Amy Davis hopes to change that. In this engaging discussion, Amy invites us to learn to DREAM AGAIN. (If you want to take one brave step toward the PURPOSE you were designed for, be sure to pick up a copy of her book, Dream Day - you will be so glad you did!)

  • Episode 82 - Positivity That Actually Works

    We’d love to hear from you! Send us a text!

    To start the year, Elizabeth sits down with podcast regular, Jane McLain. Jane shares how the word POSITIVITY kept showing up for her and why it became her focus point for this upcoming year.  This isn’t about ignoring the bad, covering it with a cute quote or just saying ‘Stay positive! Everything is going to be OK!’ This is a deeper level of how positivity can show up in our mind, our heart, and our actions. Elizabeth felt that this short but powerful episode is the perfect way to start the new year!

  • Episode 81 - The Legacy of a Life Well Lived

    We’d love to hear from you! Send us a text!

    Joan Piot, recent guest on ON PURPOSE, passed away December 2, 2025.  After attending her memorial service, something stirred in Elizabeth. Joan’s impact wasn’t in what she achieved; it was in HOW SHE LIVED. As we enter 2026, instead of asking “what can I accomplish this year?”, what if we asked…”What do I want to last?” In honor of Joan’s remarkable 96 years of living on purpose, please take a moment to listen.

  • Episode 80: The Wooden Box of Passed Down Prayers

    We’d love to hear from you! Send us a text!

    If you have ever been in a season of WAITING and WANTING, this episode is for you. Maybe you are waiting for clarity, for connection, for healing, for a child, for a job. Or maybe it’s for something in your story to finally shift. Elizabeth sits down with her friends, Jessica and Hannah, to talk about connection, community, hope, and prayers for their future husbands. What started as Elizabeth’s private prayers to God scribbled on paper and tucked inside a little wooden box over THIRTY YEARS ago, has become something far bigger than her story alone. It became a shared story of waiting and a symbol of hope that has been passed through four generations of women… SO FAR.
