This is a fan fav episode. Hey everyone, it's your girl Lisa Bilyeu, and welcome back to another heart-shaking, soul-quaking episode of "Women of Impact." Today, I have the absolute pleasure of bringing back one of my all-time favorite guests, a woman who has not only impacted my life but countless others with her raw, unfiltered honesty and boundless wisdom—the incredible Lisa Nichols.

In this episode, Lisa Nichols is bringing the heat and the heart as she takes us on a deeply personal journey through her emotional struggles and the path to rediscovering herself. Imagine battling through toxic relationships, facing the depths of clinical depression, and constantly wrestling with societal pressures that try to tell you who you should be—Lisa has been there, and she’s lived to tell the tale in the most empowering way.

She opens up about the courageous steps she took to reclaim her life, including relocating to escape a toxic situation and creating practices to rebuild her self-worth. We dive into the transformative power of self-reflection and forgiveness, and Lisa shares the incredible methods she used, from affirmations and mentorship to visual reminders that kept her grounded and focused on her true potential.

But that's not all—Lisa and I explore the tough, gritty topics like the internal conflict of intuition versus desire, and the necessity of self-acceptance in a world that often tries to dim our light. She even introduces us to her innovative "boldness quiz," designed to help us all push past our fears and embrace our true, fearless selves.

And for those of you who crave a little entertainment mixed with empowerment, Lisa gives us a sneak peek into her latest endeavor—a one-woman Broadway show that's set to inspire and transform lives.
