    125 | I Stopped Being Overwhelmed by My Commitments When I Started Doing This
    Apr 27 2026

    When requests for your time, energy, or talent stop being a blessing and start being a burden, it is time to reevaluate.

    In this episode, Lisa shares how she stopped being overwhelmed by her commitments. Hoping people will stop asking you to do things isn’t the solution. You want to be in demand. The key to overcoming these challenges is discernment.

    Decision-making is a skill. When you overload your schedule, you overload your mind. It is easy to say yes because you want to be valued and you want to be helpful. The problem is your communication. If you aren’t clear on the details of your decision, you don’t understand the full ramifications of that commitment and end up operating past your capacity.

    Yes is not a complete sentence. If you struggle with overcommitment, this episode is for you. Learn what happens when you stop blindly agreeing and how a different approach can eliminate unnecessary stress in your life.

    123 | 3 Hard Lessons About Courage & Fear I Learned Watching Skyscraper Live
    Apr 13 2026

    To accomplish your dreams and your goals, you need courage. What holds us back from taking action isn’t ability. It is fear rooted in limited beliefs.

    In this episode, Lisa explores why we shouldn’t interpret fear as a time to stop, but as a time to keep going. This topic is inspired by Skyscaper on Netflix, a documentary following Alex Honnold as he free climbs a 101-story building.​

    As Lisa watched the live stream of Alex’s ascent, she was intrigued by his commentary on fear and courage. She outlines three important lessons she learned while watching.​

    Lisa parallels Alex’s ability to do things that scare most people to real-life situations, inspiring you to do what feels hard or uncertain. If you want to make changes in your life, but fear has you paralyzed, this episode is for you. Tune in to gain insights on releasing fear and letting courage take over so you can hit your goals.
