The Lizzy Jensen Show

What does it really mean to live with faith and ambition in a world that glorifies hustle?In this heartfelt conversation, Lizzy sits down with Julie Taylor, a writer, mom of five, and soon-to-be author, to talk about the tension between purpose and peace, control and surrender, faith and doubt. Together they unpack what it means to stay faithful while walking an unpaved path, how to build instead of burn, and why satisfaction isn’t found in achievements—but in the quiet moments when you finally let go.You’ll learn: how to stop chasing validation, why sharing from your scars matters, and how to find beauty in the middle of the climb.

Some stories are written in quiet moments. Others are forged in the middle of exhaustion, loss, and showing up anyway.In this conversation with Tiffany Rosenhaun, we talk about womanhood in its truest form— the seasons where you are holding everything together, the nights you’re parenting alone, the moments when life changes in ways you never planned for.We talk about friendship that becomes a lifeline. About faith that holds when answers don’t come quickly. About creativity born in the margins of motherhood and grief. And about the way women rise—again and again—when life asks more than feels fair.This episode is a reminder that the hardest chapters often shape the most meaningful stories. That community matters. That vulnerability is not weakness. And that becoming is almost always born in the unseen places.If you’ve ever felt stretched thin, changed by loss, or strengthened by the women around you— this one is for you.

This conversation felt holy.I sat down with Bubba Page and we talked about the things we don’t slow down long enough to notice—our reactions, our triggers, the way our bodies respond before our minds catch up.What happens when we stop judging the reaction… and start asking God why it showed up?We talked about fatherhood as a sacred calling. About men who lead with God. About women who create space instead of carrying everything alone. About healing that doesn’t start with fixing someone else, but with getting honest about what’s happening inside of us.We talked about faith practices that quiet the noise, community that actually holds you, and why Christianity was never meant to be lived in isolation.This episode is about slowing down enough to listen—to your body, to your spirit, and to God’s invitation to heal what’s underneath the reaction.If you’ve felt tense, overwhelmed, disconnected, or tired of carrying it all… this conversation will meet you right where you are.🎧 Bubba Page on The Lizzie Jensen Show — now live.

This conversation stayed with me long after we stopped recording.Elizabeth Borowsky has lived a lifetime in music — performing internationally as a child, building a career as a pianist, teacher, and composer — and then, suddenly, her life changed in a way she never chose.A cancer diagnosis has a way of stripping things down to what actually matters. Who you are. What you project. What remains when your body, your plans, and your sense of control shift overnight.In this episode, we talk about identity, presence, surrender, and the quiet realization that who we are is never just what we look like, what we produce, or what we’ve accomplished. We talk about fear, loss, beauty, and the surprising ways growth shows up through trials.We also share the story behind a meditation album Elizabeth and Jessica created together — music and words born directly from lived experience, not theory.If you’ve ever had something happen that wasn’t part of your plan… If you’ve ever wondered who you are when life takes an unexpected turn… This conversation is for you.

Before the goals. Before the plans. Before the pressure to become someone new this year.There’s a quieter question I think we skip too often: What do I actually want?We live in so much noise — good ideas, better strategies, endless input — and it’s easy to move forward without ever stopping to ask whether the life we’re building is really ours. Whether it’s aligned with who we are, where we are, and what God might be inviting us into right now.In this episode, I talk about slowing down before the new year rush. About reclaiming your own voice. About learning to tune out what doesn’t matter so you can hear what does. Not so you can do more — but so you can move with clarity, intention, and trust.If you’ve felt overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure about what’s next… this conversation is for you.

Fear shows up at the doorway of nearly every sacred invitation.In this episode, I sit down again with David Butler for a conversation about fear, becoming, and the quiet, holy way God moves people forward. We talk about why fear so often accompanies God’s invitations—and why that fear is not a sign to stop, but a sign to pay attention.Drawing from the Christmas story, the creation account, and the consistent patterns God has used from the very beginning, this conversation reframes growth, change, and the pressure we feel—especially around a new year. What surprised me most was how much clarity came not from looking ahead, but from looking backward and recognizing where God has already been at work.This episode is for anyone who feels overwhelmed by expectations, paralyzed by fear, or unsure how to step into what’s next. It’s a reminder that holiness is often found in the ordinary, that growth is meant to be slow, and that God never asks us to move forward without first saying, “Fear not.”Wherever this episode finds you, let it be a pause. Let it be perspective. Let it be permission to see your life through God’s lens—not the world’s.

You do not have to be a scriptorian to be a powerful gospel teacher in your home. Read that again. 🫶In today’s episode, I sit down with Shannon Foster, also known as @theredheadedhostess, and we talk about the fear so many women quietly carry:“I don’t know enough to teach my kids.” “I’m not good at the scriptures.” “Our family scripture time is a mess… am I failing?”Shannon’s story is the exact opposite of what you’d expect. She grew up illiterate in the scriptures, sitting in the back of seminary praying she wouldn’t get called on. The idea of reading a verse and then explaining what it meant? Absolutely terrifying.And yet… God took that exact weakness and turned it into her training ground.She became a full-time seminary teacher. She learned how to teach youth who didn’t understand, didn’t feel confident, and didn’t naturally love the scriptures—because that had been her.And now she’s helped tens of thousands of families learn how to study the scriptures, feel confident in the word of God, and create homes where the gospel feels like an exhale, not a performance.
