    Learning a New Internal Rhythm: You Deserve Calm

    What happens when your inner world starts to feel… different? In this episode, we explore the quiet fear many people carry when considering medication—especially those who feel deeply, think deeply, or experience a strong inner or intuitive world. The question often isn’t just will this help me? but will I lose something in the process? Through a nervous system and trauma-informed lens, we talk about what shifts in the brain with medications like Strattera, why intensity can feel familiar, and how calm can sometimes feel unfamiliar at first. This is a conversation about the difference between numbing and regulation, about ADHD and emotional intensity, and about what it means to adjust to a new internal rhythm without losing yourself in the process. Because sometimes, when the noise settles, you’re not disconnected—  you’re finally able to hear yourself more clearly.

    When Your Body Says Enough: A Woman’s Reclamation

    There comes a point in a woman’s life—often during peri-menopause and menopause—where everything begins to shift. The energy isn’t the same.  The capacity changes.  And the version of you who could do it all… can’t anymore. In this episode, we explore the deeper meaning of exhaustion—not just physical, but emotional and soul-level. The kind that forces you into the bare minimum. The kind that makes you question who you are when you can no longer show up the way you used to. But what if this isn’t burnout?  What if this is a turning point? This conversation reframes exhaustion as a sacred transition—a shedding of old identities and a return to something deeper. Through reflection, lived experience, and historical insight—including the role of elder women in cultures like the Haudenosaunee Confederacy—this episode invites you to see midlife not as a loss, but as a reclamation of wisdom, truth, and inner authority. If you’ve spent years being everything for everyone…  and now you can’t anymore— this episode is for you.

    Just For Today… I Choose Me

    What if you didn’t have to figure everything out… just for today? In this episode, I share a simple shift that changed the way I move through my day. Inspired by the Reiki principle of “just for today,” this isn’t about adding more pressure or becoming someone new—it’s about releasing it. We talk about what happens when you stop waiting to be chosen, start offering yourself the same care you give everyone else, and allow today to be enough.

    Mom Guilt Much? Same! Let’s Talk About It!

    If you’ve ever replayed a conversation with your child… wondered if you handled something the “right” way… or felt like no matter what you do, it’s never quite enough… this episode is for you. In this honest and deeply personal conversation, we’re talking about mom guilt—what it actually is, where it comes from, and why so many moms carry it so heavily. This isn’t just about those obvious moments where you lose patience or wish you did something differently. This is about the lingering pressure—the kind that shows up when you rest, set boundaries, or try to balance everything life is asking of you. Inside this episode, we explore: What “mom guilt” really is (and why it’s not just in your head)The concept of intensive mothering and how it shapes expectationsWhy moms tend to carry more emotional responsibility than othersHow guilt turns into self-doubt—and pulls you out of connectionWhy your everyday moments matter more than you thinkThrough personal stories, real-life parenting moments, and psychology-backed insight, this episode brings both understanding and relief. If you’ve ever questioned yourself as a mom… you are not alone. And more importantly— you are not failing. Content Note / Listener Disclaimer This episode focuses on the emotional experience of motherhood and may resonate most with moms, especially those navigating guilt, self-doubt, or the pressure to “get it right.” That said, caregivers of all kinds—including fathers—may find insight and connection in these themes. This conversation includes reflections on parenting challenges, emotional stress, and personal experiences. Please listen at your own pace and take care of yourself if anything feels activating.

    Perspective: The Story You Thought Was True… Isn’t the Whole Story

    This episode came from a real moment this morning—one of those where something shifts inside and just clicks. What started as a few negative thoughts led me back to childhood memories I didn’t realize were still shaping how I see myself today. In this episode, we talk about perspective—how the past can quietly define our present, why our nervous system holds onto old stories, and how to expand your view without dismissing your pain. Because yes… you were hurt. But that’s not the whole story.

    The Power of Doing Nothing: Letting Your Nervous System Lead

    In this episode of Untamed Voices, we explore a simple but powerful practice: doing nothing. We often believe we need to fix, manage, or control our internal state to feel better. But what if that effort is actually keeping us activated? This episode looks at how the nervous system responds not just to what we feel, but to how we relate to those feelings—and how removing the pressure to “fix” can create space for natural regulation. We talk about the difference between awareness and interference, how the brain and body continue to process even in stillness, and why discomfort during this practice doesn’t mean it isn’t working. We also bring in important balance—recognizing that doing nothing is supportive when there is enough internal safety, but not always the right tool in highly dysregulated states. This conversation invites us to step out of constant doing and into trust—allowing the body’s natural intelligence to return us to center without force.

    Living from the Heart… But What Is It, Really?

    “Live from your heart.” It sounds simple, maybe even beautiful… but if you’ve ever been hurt, if openness has ever cost you something, then you know, it’s not always that easy. In this episode, I slow this idea down and really sit with it. What does it actually mean to live from your heart in a real, human life? Not in theory, not in a quote, but in the moments where you feel guarded, overwhelmed, or unsure if it’s even safe to open. We explore how the mind steps in to protect you, why that’s not a flaw but an intelligent adaptation, and how over time it can become the place you live instead of something that supports you. I also share a perspective on the heart as its own form of intelligence, one that communicates through feeling, resonance, and a quiet kind of knowing. This episode includes a gentle guided visualization to help you reconnect with your heart space, not by forcing openness, but by becoming reacquainted with what’s already within you. Because living from the heart isn’t about choosing between being open or being protected… it’s about learning how to be both.

    Whose Voice Is That? Reclaiming Your Inner Frequency

    Have you ever noticed that the voice in your head doesn’t always feel like your own? In this episode of Untamed Voices, Lizzi explores a powerful idea: What if your mind isn’t a diary… but a radio? A place where the voices of parents, teachers, culture, religion, and past experiences still echo inside your thoughts. Through psychology, neuroscience, and wisdom from spiritual traditions around the world, we look at how the brain internalizes outside messages through a process called introjection, why the nervous system keeps replaying old patterns under stress, and how the inner critic often formed as a way to protect us. You’ll also learn simple ways to quiet the mental noise and reconnect with your own inner signal—the quieter voice of intuition and truth that has been there all along. Sometimes the loudest voice in your mind belongs to someone who hasn’t been in your life for years. So the real question becomes: Whose voice are you thinking in right now?  Send us Fan Mail Support the show If this episode resonated with you, I’d love for you to share it with someone who might need these words today.
