Fearlessly Facing......starting something new and outside of your comfort zone.

My guest today is Lisa Loyet-Schmitz. Lisa shares her journey of contributing to the anthology "Living Well with Grit," discovering that every woman's story is special precisely because it is uniquely hers. Through vulnerability and authenticity, Lisa found writing about her life experiences to be surprisingly therapeutic, helping her recognize patterns and growth that shaped her present self.
• Overcoming the belief that her story wasn't "special enough" to share
• Finding the courage to write authentically about personal experiences
• The concept of being "Too Young to Be Beige" – losing yourself trying to please everyone
• Learning to set boundaries and say "no" to maintain balance
• The importance of mentors and expressing gratitude to those who've helped us
• Building community through shared vulnerability and storytelling
• Embracing life's curveballs with resilience
• Finding strength through allowing others to help during difficult times
Find "Living Well with Grit" on Amazon. The book features chapters from 37 women sharing their unique stories of growth, resilience, intention, and tenacity.
