    How You Can Expand Your Life Without Expanding Your Impact

    In this episode of Lifedesign Monday Magic, Liz explores the paradox of expansiveness — how we can create a generosity of thinking and living while still keeping our impact low. Through stories of everyday choices, from repurposing old couches to creating her new creative space, Liz shows how expansiveness isn’t about consuming more, but about opening our lives to more joy, possibility, and generosity. This episode is a reminder that we can choose to live as if all will be well, even when challenges arise — and that expansive thinking and expansive action can transform how we show up in the world. Key Highlights: Why expansiveness is about possibility and generosity, not excess How expansive thinking helps balance fear, scarcity, and limitation Simple examples of expansiveness in daily life (home, garden, giving, creativity) How reframing self-esteem and self-responsibility links to expansive living The ripple effect of small, thoughtful actions—from charity donations to decluttering A powerful reminder that you’re entitled to take up space and lead in your own life🎧 Listen now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube: https://bit.ly/4hZlMzd Connect with us: 📌 Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lifedesign_mondaymagic_podcast/ If Liz’s words inspire you, please subscribe, rate, and leave a review.
