This past month has stretched me in ways I didn’t expect. I’ve been reminded that whenever we step into a new season, the challenges often intensify — spiritually, emotionally, and even physically. The body keeps the score, and sometimes it feels like spiritual warfare is pressing in from every angle.
In this episode, I’m sharing vulnerably about my own struggles, the hope I’ve held onto, and why I’ve been thinking a lot about bop bags — those
toys that keep popping back up no matter how many times they’re knocked down. Maybe that’s a picture of faith in hard seasons: sometimes you just need to weather the storm, keep pressing in, and trust that the season will change.

Liz shares her journey of escaping communist Cuba at just 7 years old, building a thriving business here in the U.S., and selling it all to answer a new call: supporting her husband through a rare cancer diagnosis. That pivotal moment led her straight to the Nutritional Therapy Association, where she began learning how to truly nourish and care for his body—and her own.
This conversation is raw, real, and rich with laughter, tears, and truth. We talk about the power of grit, the role of faith in healing, and how God weaves purpose into every season of our lives—from hardship to hope.
