What if the story you’ve believed about yourself for years isn’t the whole story?
In this episode of The Beauty In The Mess, I’m joined by Liz Owens—certified coach, behavioral strategist, and founder of House of Worthship. Liz shares her personal journey of overcoming self-doubt, imposter syndrome, disordered eating, and the pressure of living up to everyone else’s expectations. Through years of personal Growth and studying human behavior, she’s discovered that while our past shapes us, it doesn’t have to dictate our future.
Together, we explore why awareness alone isn’t enough to create change, how our identities are often built around survival rather than authenticity, and practical ways to interrupt unhealthy patterns so we can begin living with greater purpose and self-worth.
Whether you’ve struggled with self-confidence, emotional eating, perfectionism, or simply feeling like you’re never enough, this conversation offers practical tools and hope for creating lasting change.
