Today, I'm super excited to have the amazing Lisa DeAngelis on the show! Lisa is a holistic change practitioner, author, teacher, and speaker who knows all about making sustainable change and transforming your life for the better. Her debut book, Embracing the Unknown, is full of inspiration and practical advice.

In this episode, we're chatting about everything from the creative rollercoaster of writing a book to the emotional highs and lows of publishing. We’ll talk about why we resist change, how to build a better relationship with it, and why it's so important to remember your past successes. Lisa also gets real about the struggles with identity and how embracing all parts of yourself can lead to serious growth.

We'll also touch on some super cool ideas like overthinking, the importance of discomfort, and how you don't have to fear change. Plus, we'll throw in some love for Julia Cameron's The Artist's Way and its awesome 12-week process for tapping into your creativity.

Whether you're looking for a little motivation, some wisdom on handling life's twists and turns, or just a great conversation, this episode has it all. So grab your favorite drink, get comfy, and join us for a chat that's sure to leave you inspired. Let's dive in!
