Hello friends. It’s your friend Lizzy, and today’s episode is Holy Ground.

If you’ve ever wrestled with fear, insecurity, imposter syndrome, or wondered if God still sees you—this conversation will feel like a deep breath.

Today I sit down with the incredible artist and songwriter Ashley Hess.

Her music has moved so many of us, but what I loved most about this conversation is how honest and unpolished it was in the best possible way.

We talk about:

• The surprising truth about fear and calling

• Why your insecurities might actually be pointing toward your purpose

• The story behind her song Yet—born in a moment of deep questioning

• How God meets us in our honesty, not our perfection

• Why vulnerability builds the kind of community our souls crave

• And what it means to follow Jesus when you don’t feel qualified

This episode is an invitation to stop waiting until you feel ready and start trusting that God can use you exactly where you are—questions and all.

If you haven't listened to Ashley’s song Yet yet, go play it after this. Let it meet you right where you’re standing today.

I’m so glad you’re here. 💛

Hello friends, it’s your friend Lizzie, and today’s episode feels really special.

There are some conversations you walk into knowing they’re going to shift something in you—and this was one of them.

Sitting across from Ralphie Jacobs of @simplyonpurpose felt like sitting with quiet, steady, heaven-backed royalty. In this conversation we talk about gentle parenting, how to make the holidays magical without spending a dime, and why motherhood—even in the mess—is one of God’s greatest gifts.

We dive into:

• How to actually enjoy your kids more
• Why looking for what’s going right changes their behavior (and your heart)
• Simple, free ideas to make the holidays feel special
• Social media, callings from God, and knowing when “enough” is enough
• How to teach your children Jesus by being more like Him in your home

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or worried you’re “ruining your kids,” this episode will feel like a deep breath and a gentle reset.

I’m so glad you’re here. 💛

What if your dream role found you—before you ever felt ready for it?

In this inspiring conversation, Lizzy sits down with Tiffany Larson, CEO of Days for Girls International, a global nonprofit empowering women and girls in 145 countries. Tiffany shares how she went from a 5-hour-a-week volunteer to leading an organization that has impacted over 3.7 million girls worldwide.

They talk about faith, motherhood, leadership, imposter syndrome, and the myth of “traditional” career paths. Tiffany’s story is proof that movement creates clarity, that emotional intelligence is real leadership, and that the world needs more women who trust their timing.

Welcome back to a Sunday Sermon. Today we’re talking about something that has the power to reshape your entire life: your true identity.

Through scripture and stories—from Moses to Mary to Paul—we explore how God names us by who we eternally are, while the adversary tries to pull us down into labels rooted in weakness, fear, or temporary struggle.

If you’ve ever wondered who you really are in God’s eyes, or if you’ve been carrying labels that shrink you, this episode will speak right to your heart.

Together we’ll walk through six simple practices to help you hear Him more clearly, release false identities, and step into the divine strength already inside you.

Listen, take a breath, and let God remind you who you’ve always been.

I’m so glad you’re here.

If you’re a woman who is doing all the things—working, parenting, serving, trying to stay “healthy”—but still feels exhausted, inflamed, anxious, or “off,” this episode is for you.

Today I’m joined by a powerhouse panel from Ampelis Health to talk about the real state of women’s health and what’s actually working:

• Dr. Jessica Jones – Psychiatrist & Medical Director at Ampelis Health
• Tanna Fox – Internationally Certified nutritionist
• Robbie Harmon – President of Ampelis and co-creator of their new Core7 supplement

We talk honestly about why women are more stressed than ever, how that stress shows up in our bodies and brains, and why so much of the advice we’ve been given (hello, intermittent fasting) was built on research that didn’t even include women.

You’ll hear a grounded, hopeful conversation about when medication is essential—and when lifestyle, food, and spiritual practices can be the strongest medicine of all. We go deep on movement, protein, fiber, gut health, sleep, Sabbath rest, and why a well-nourished mother is one of the most powerful forces in society.

Melanie Jensen, a researcher in anxiety and learning (and creator of Everybody Math), has spent years uncovering why kids (and adults) freeze, scroll, and “clean the inbox” instead of doing the thing that matters.

In this brand-new conversation on The Lizzy Jensen Show, Melanie unpacks the big myth—that not all people can be “math people”—and introduces a simple framework for spotting derailment (that moment your brain bails) and turning it into momentum.

The takeaways?

Anxiety = “I care” + “I don’t feel like I have control.”

All people can learn math—and people who don't feel like they're "math people" may just be missing steps you can learn.

Name the derailment, then: do the hard thing first, or start with the easy win, or break it into tiny steps.

What is “productive procrastination” is still procrastination.

Fail forward. Try again. That’s the whole game.

What if music isn’t just something we give to God, but something He gave to us?

In this Sunday Sermon episode, Lizzy shares how music has shaped her faith — from her first experience feeling God’s love, to powerful moments of worship, transformation, and healing. She dives into scripture, science, and personal stories that show how music can tune your soul to the frequency of heaven.

You’ll learn: why your body is literally built to resonate with truth, how to use music to fight spiritual battles, and how to turn your daily worship into a whole-body experience.

Music and Spirituality: Theological Approaches, Empirical Methods, and Christian Worship

​​Mark Cole: Role of Worship in the Bible

Quotes:

Music expresses that which cannot be put into words. Victor Hugo

Music is the language of the spirit. It opens the secret of life bringing peace, abolishing strife. Khalil Gibran

Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy. Music is the electrical soil in which the spirit lives, thinks, and invents. Ludwig van Beethoven

Music is the movement of sound to reach the soul for the education of its virtue. Plato

Music cleanses the understanding; inspires it, and lifts it into a realm which it would not reach if it were left to itself. Henry Ward Beecher

Music has the power to provide spiritual nourishment. It has healing power. It has the power to facilitate worship; it allows us to contemplate the [Savior’s] Atonement…Music provides power for us to express prayerful thoughts and bear testimony of sacred truths. Russell M. Nelson

Children can learn the doctrine when they’re learning to sing just as much as they can learn the doctrine in a class. Russell M. Nelson

Primary songs are not simply a nice part of our religious tradition. They are sermons for disciples of Jesus Christ, testimonies to the truthfulness of the restored gospel, and prayers set to music. Sacred music can shine the Light of Christ on the hearer and can pour into the heart of the singer. Tracy Y. Browning

I used to believe I had to earn God’s approval—until He gently showed me, “Ye know me not.” Today my guest Amber Dawn Pearce shares her astonishing story (hippie commune → 13 kids → years of “not enough”) and the breaking point that led to a truer God, deeper peace, and a steadier creative life. We talk about why checklists can’t save us, how the oil of the Ten Virgins points to relationship, why a trimmed wick matters, and how command = promise in real life.

You’ll learn: rebuilding a relationship with Jesus, practicing Mary-style humility, spotting Pharisee thinking, and simple “trimmings” that brighten your light at home, on campus, and online.
