  • WNH - 145 We Need Coaching

    Sometimes your friends are just tired of hearing about it — and that’s when it’s time to get a coach. 

    In this hilariously real episode, Lizzy and Iza talk about why therapy is great but coaching hits different. They unpack the difference between a friend who cheers you on (even when you’re spiraling) and a coach who holds up the mirror and says, “Girl. You’re the problem.”

    💥 Expect unfiltered stories, unexpected truth bombs, and:

    • Why your friends are too nice to call you out
    • How to recognize your own victim-looping
    • When a coach is better than another vent session
    • Iza’s take on hiring one and being one
    • And a side story about Mo that’ll have you wheezing


    👀 Whether you need a wake-up call or just need someone to finally tell you the truth — this one’s for you.

  • WNH 144 We Need to Be Stuck Up

    This week, Lizzy and Iza are flipping the script on what it means to be “stuck up”. Spoiler: it’s not about being rude — it’s about refusing to shrink yourself just to make other people comfortable.

    From family gatherings to friendships, they unpack why we downplay our successes, dim our light, and make ourselves smaller — and why it’s time to stop.

    In this honest convo, they share:

    • The guilt trip of being “too much”
    • Why it’s not your job to manage other people’s feelings
    • The difference between confidence and arrogance
    • How to stay authentic without apology
    • And why “stuck up” might just be self-respect in disguise

     If you’ve ever been told to “tone it down,” this episode is your permission slip not to.

  • WNH 143 We Need to Stop Back Handed Compliments

    You know those “compliments” that don’t feel like compliments at all? Yeah. Lizzy and Iza are DONE with them. 

    From the dreaded “You look tired” to the classic “That dress actually looks good on you,” this episode calls out the subtle shade disguised as kindness — and how to respond when it happens mid-workshop, on stage, or just when you’re already drowning.

    💬 In this hilariously relatable episode, they unpack:
    •Why backhanded compliments suck so hard
    •The emotional whiplash of passive-aggressive “feedback”
    •How to stop narrating someone else’s appearance
    •What to say instead of “You look tired” 
    •And why just being direct is so much better

    If you’ve ever walked away from a compliment feeling worse, this one’s for you.The We Need Help Podcast - is cheaper than therapy and way funnier.

  • WNH 140 - We Need To Be The Bad Guy

    We Need Help Podcast: “Being the Bad Guy”

    In this episode, Lizzy and Iza dive into the uncomfortable but empowering topic of being okay with being the bad guy. From tough conversations to boundary-setting, they explore why women often struggle with being disliked and how embracing your “villain era” can actually be a form of growth. 💥


    They share stories from their own lives and friends — including power moves, people-pleasing dilemmas, and moments when being “the bad guy” was absolutely necessary. If you’ve ever felt guilty for speaking up or worried about how you’re perceived, this episode is for you.


     It’s not about being mean — it’s about being real.

    Topics Covered:
    •Why women are conditioned to avoid being disliked
    •The emotional cost of people-pleasing
    •Real moments where saying “yes” hurt more than saying “no”
    •Teaching kids (especially daughters) to set boundaries
    •Embracing discomfort to stand in your truth
    •How being the “bad guy” is often just being honest
    •The liberation of saying “no” without explaining yourself
    •Why you don’t owe everyone an explanation

    Challenge of the Week:
    Be the bad guy once. Say “no” without guilt. Set a boundary. Don’t explain yourself. Just try it.

    Because being the bad guy isn’t mean — it’s honest.
