Listen It’s Liz

How you doing? If the answer is not great, I get it.    Last year at this time I was all over the place. This episode we talk about what has worked for me. I'm not a doctor. I can't tell you what to do BUT I can remind you that you should take care of yourself! 

If you are a coffee drinker then you know that typically you can tell if your coffee is going to taste right just by the LOOK of it!  You also know that every cup of coffee is not the same. There are days where it's amazing and days when it's not. How come we allow that to be the case and we give coffee so many chances? Imagine if coffee was your ex?  We can be our own worst critics but why can't we give ourself the same grace that we give our coffee? 

There's only 24 hours in a day. How are you using that time? Are you wasting it, manipulating it, or managing it? Asking for a friend.  I took a longer then anticipated break and was reminded what can happen in 365 days. Happy to be back! 

In this special holiday episode of Listen, It’s Liz, I packed up the mics, the cameras, and all the festive vibes to set up at Believe, A Magical Christmas Festival that gives you that childlike sparkle the moment you walk in. I asked strangers-turned-friends the big holiday questions: What does Christmas mean to you? What does the world need a little more of right now? And… are you feeling festive yet? From heartfelt moments to pure holiday hilarity, this episode is full of joy, nostalgia, and those little reminders of why this season matters so much. Grab a cocoa, cozy up, and get ready to feel the magic.

From Starbucks Bear Cups to Silly Bandz, Uggs, and those Pandora charm bracelets we swore we’d wear forever. Trends come and go, and often? They end up in the donation pile. In this episode, we’re talking about how we assign value to things, why we fall for hype (hi, it’s me ), and what we can learn from the graveyard of once-loved items now sitting on thrift store shelves. As the holiday shopping frenzy kicks in, let’s pause for a little reality check: What do we actually need? What do we truly want? And when is the best gift not a thing at all but an experience, a memory, a moment? Grab your coffee (trendy cup optional) and let’s rethink how we spend our time, money, and energy this season.

Let’s be honest this time of year can be tough. The days are shorter, the nights are longer, and even the most positive people can start to feel the weight of it all. In this episode, I’m talking about seasonal depression not from a doctor’s perspective, but from a real one. I share what helps me push through the darker months, the small things that make a big difference, and why asking for help or simply talking about it matters so much. You’re not alone in this. Let’s get through the season together one conversation, one connection at a time.        

 **Episode: The Eras of Taylor (and Us)** Taylor Swift’s latest album drop has everyone talking — and not all of it’s kind. But honestly? I don’t think Taylor cares. And maybe that’s the point. In this episode, I’m not just gushing over Taylor (promise). I’m using her eras — from teenage heartbreak to grown-woman confidence — to reflect on our own. From high school to your 20s, 30s, and 40s, we all go through phases where people have *opinions* about who we are and what we’re doing. So let’s talk about what it means to evolve, to outgrow, and to stop letting outside noise shape our story. Here’s to doing what makes us happy — no matter who’s watching.  

Dear Diary,  If I were to be a journal girlie this would be my first entry in a crisp, new notebook.  I've been asked a lot of questions since I announced I was stepping down from Morning Show Radio. This is the answer.  Everything happens for a reason. 2025 proves that. Here's to the next chapter.  Love you, mean it.  Listen It's Liz 

If you don't start somewhere, did you even start?
