What happens when you stop numbing your feelings and finally begin listening to your body, your faith, and your own voice?
In Episode 661 of It’s Bizzy, Elizabeth “Bizzy” Chance reflects on approaching 20 years of sobriety—and the gradual transformation that took her from simply trying not to drink to caring deeply about her physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
Twenty years ago, health and wellness were not on Bizzy’s mind. She was trying to escape uncomfortable feelings, regret, fear, and sadness. Today, she is a certified recovery, life, and health and wellness coach who is intentional about what she eats, how she moves, how she sleeps, and how she cares for the body God gave her.
But this episode is about more than physical health.
Bizzy talks honestly about forgiveness, releasing resentment, letting go of the need to be liked, and recognizing that we were never created to be identical. We have different gifts, beliefs, strengths, stories, and opinions—and those differences should not prevent us from loving one another.
She also shares why life does not need to be fair for it to be meaningful, why everyone does not need the same trophy, and why adulthood requires personal responsibility, courage, and a willingness to try—even when we may fail.
The central message is simple:
You do not have to be the best at everything.
You do not need everyone’s approval.
You are allowed to be different.
You are allowed to change.
You are allowed to release the past.
And you are allowed to embrace the person God created you to be.
Bizzy also introduces the idea behind her upcoming small-group course for women who are ready to release labels, find their voices, let go of anger, and build a new life chapter rooted in faith.
When anxiety or fear begins to take over, try this simple spiritual practice:
Breathe in: Come, Holy Spirit.
Breathe out—and release what you cannot control.
You are not alone. God is always with you.
