What Matters With Jennifer Wallace: Small Moments, Deep Connection & Why We Matter

Do you feel seen, heard… like you truly matter? In this powerful episode of What Matters with Liz, host Liz Vaccariello sits down with New York Times bestselling author Jennifer Wallace to explore one of the most fundamental and overlooked human needs: mattering. Drawing from her book 'Mattering: The Secret to a Life of Deep Connection and Purpose', Jennifer reveals why feeling valued and adding value isn’t just nice to have—it’s essential to our mental health, relationships, and sense of purpose. “Mattering is defined as the idea that we feel valued for who we are and that we have an opportunity to add value to the world around us,” says Jennifer. “After the drive for food and shelter, it is the need to matter that drives human behavior for better or worse.” In this episode you’ll learn: • Why “mattering” is the missing link behind loneliness, disconnection, and burnout • The simple, everyday moments (“clementine moments”) that make people feel valued • The powerful SAID framework: Significance, Appreciation, Investment, and Dependence • How to combat negativity bias with an “impact file” • Why friendships are suffering and how to reverse the “friendship recession” • The surprising importance of “inconvenient favors” and showing up • Why asking for help isn’t selfish - it’s generous • How life transitions (empty nesting, caregiving, retirement) can shake our sense of purpose and how to rebuild it • Practical ways to deepen connection at home, at work, and even with strangers This conversation is filled with actionable tools to help you feel more connected, more purposeful, and more appreciated…and to make others feel the same. “Our resilience rests fundamentally on our relationships,” says Jennifer.

What Matters to Laura Geller: Aging with Confidence, Beauty & Owning Your Power

“We’re in a cultural moment where aging is being rewritten—not as something to fight—but something to own.” Those are the words of celebrity makeup artist and entrepreneur Laura Geller. In this episode of What Matters with Liz, the founder of Laura Geller Beauty, a pioneer in age-inclusive makeup, sits down with host Liz Vaccariello to talk about confidence, reinvention, and what it means to embrace aging on your own terms. From being overlooked for jobs in her 40s to building a brand that celebrates women over 40, Laura shares how she turned rejection into purpose and why helping women feel seen, confident, and beautiful at every age has become her mission. She opens up about her early career as a makeup artist, working with icons like Audrey Hepburn and Paul Newman, launching her business in New York City with no roadmap, and the pivotal moment—casting an older model on QVC—that helped shift both her brand and the broader beauty conversation. Plus, Laura gets candid about motherhood, becoming an empty nester, her breast cancer journey, and the unexpected freedom that comes with getting older. “The filters come off and you realize - you don’t care what people think anymore.” If you’ve ever felt invisible, unsure how to evolve your look, or like your best years are behind you, this conversation will remind you: they’re not. In this episode, you’ll learn: ● Why aging is something to own—not fight ● The biggest beauty mistakes women make after 40 ● Laura’s simple “3 E’s” rule for instantly enhancing your look ● How to adapt your skincare and makeup as your skin changes ● Why confidence actually gets stronger with age ● How to turn rejection into reinvention ● The reality of balancing career, motherhood, and ambition ● Why finding “your thing” is essential at every stage of life ● How to shift from self-criticism to self-acceptance ● How to ignite a new flame of passion in your life – no matter your age Laura’s message is clear: beauty isn’t about perfection—it’s about empowerment.
