"Own Your Voice: Speak Your Truth Unapologetically"

Since when did having an opinion become offensive? I remember a time when people could disagree, and it wasn’t the end of the world. You believed what you believed, I believed what I believed, and if we didn’t see eye to eye—oh well, life moved on!

But today? It’s all about not offending anyone. Every word is scrutinized. God, forbid you express a thought that challenges the status quo!

Are we all supposed to be robots?
Do we have to think the same?
Are we living in some kind of ideological commune where original thought is banned?

I’ve always been someone with a voice and strong opinions. When I was younger, I was shushed for being too transparent. So, I drank—drowning my truth because I was ashamed of feeling too much, of not fitting the mold. I wasn’t allowed to express sadness or frustration, and that suppression was exhausting.

But today? Today, I feel blessed to be able to:

✅ Know who I am.
✅ Stand firm in my beliefs.
✅ Speak my truth without shame.
✅ Live authentically.
✅ Love big—but never be a pushover.
✅ Use the brain God gave me—because I refuse to be silenced.

Now, don’t get me wrong—I never want to hurt anyone. But I do believe that we’re all entitled to our opinions. I find different perspectives fascinating, even if I don’t agree with them. God made us uniquely, gifting us with the ability to think, reason, and form our own convictions.

So if my beliefs make someone uncomfortable, that’s not my problem.

I once heard Ben Shapiro say, "Never apologize for speaking your truth." And I couldn’t agree more.

Through my podcast, newsletter, and website, I have a platform to speak my truth—one that I will never take for granted. We live in the United States of America, a country built on free speech, and in recent years, we came dangerously close to losing that right. That’s why President Donald J. Trump was elected—because he speaks the truth, unfiltered and transparent. And whether you like him or not, you know where he stands. If you don’t like it, that’s okay! There are plenty of other places on this planet where the government will gladly control what you say, think, and do.

But not here. Not in America.

So, my hope for you is this: Embrace who you are. Own your voice. Stop worrying about whether everyone likes you. Be you—fully, unapologetically, and without fear. Because there’s only one you, and that’s exactly how God made you.

And with Ash Wednesday marking the start of Lent, maybe these next 40 days can be a challenge:
Be 100% yourself. Speak your truth. Live boldly, knowing that you are already perfectly made in God’s image.

Wishing you a stupendous weekend!

Love,

The Party is Over… But Was It Ever Fun!

Do you ever put so much effort into planning a party that the next day you wake up thinking, Wait… that’s it? It’s over?! That’s exactly how I’m feeling after hosting a big engagement party for my son and his fiancée this past weekend.

I wanted everything to be perfecto! Every detail, from the food to the drinks to the little surprises, had to be just right. And of course, I wanted all my guests to feel comfortable—whether they drink or not. So, I went on a mission.

Now, as you all know, I don’t keep alcohol in my house. Not because I’m tempted (thank goodness!), but because I protect my sobriety like it’s my full-time job. That’s why JF and I still go to meetings after 18+ years. We’ve heard it too many times—people who relapse often say it started when they stopped going to meetings. And trust me, I have zero interest in going back to that drinking life.

But I also wanted my guests who do drink to feel welcome and have a great time. So, how do you throw a party with a fully stocked bar without physically buying alcohol or dealing with leftover bottles staring at you the next morning? Enter: the genius solution!

A catering concierge here in South Florida recommended a bartender who brings everything—booze, mixers, garnishes, even the bar itself. And the best part? He takes it all away at the end of the night! Poof! No stress, no mess, no awkward leftover liquor cabinet situation. It was seamless, and everyone had an amazing time.

The food? Delicious. The cake? Divine. The games? Exactly what the couple wanted to kick off the excitement for their 2026 wedding. Mission accomplished!

But let me tell you, after all that planning and running around, I was wrecked. I mean, completely wiped out. I used to throw parties all the time when I was married the first time, but let’s be real—I was way younger then. Now? I’m 56, and sometimes I forget that!

Here’s what I won’t forget next time:
✅ Schedule some downtime afterward.
✅ Prioritize sleep, healthy food, and self-care.
✅ Trust that it will all come together the way it’s meant to.

Because at the end of the day, we can put our hearts into making these moments special, but if we’re running on empty, we can’t fully enjoy them. And what’s the point of a party if you don’t get to have fun too?

Oh, and thank goodness I hired a photographer. I wanted to be in the moment, not running around with my phone trying to capture every memory. Highly recommend!

So, the next time you’re throwing an event—whether it’s a big party or just a small gathering—remember to take care of you too. Plan, prep, and then let go and trust that it will all unfold as it should.

Wishing you a weekend filled with rest, relaxation, and zero party clean-up.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Did you catch Wednesday’s podcast? It was all about me celebrating 56 Valentine’s Days! Go give it a listen—trust me, I did my homework. I discovered that St. Valentine was actually an advocate for marriage and even went to jail for it! Not the most romantic start to this holiday, right? But here we are, many decades later, celebrating what’s supposed to be a fun and lighthearted day. I think it’s great for little kids, but for the rest of us, it’s a bit of a mixed bag. You either have to scramble to buy a gift or cards for someone special, or it can be a reminder that you don’t have that “special person” in your life, which can feel a little lonely.

I have a new idea, though! Let’s make Valentine’s Day all about love—but not just romantic love. Let’s celebrate love for our neighbors, our communities, our families, our pets, our coworkers, and even our country! I know the 4th of July is already for celebrating America, but if we’re lucky enough to live in the USA, why not celebrate being American twice a year? It’s worth considering, don’t you think?

On a different note—what has Donald Trump done during his time in office? It’s honestly been insane how much he’s delivered on his promises! When has that ever happened in politics, right? But that’s enough of that—let’s keep it light!

I just want to take a moment to remind you that you are loved. God has loved us since we were conceived, even when we forget that truth. I know I’ve been guilty of that. The Blessed Mother and Jesus have always loved us and always will. That’s sometimes hard to fully accept, but it’s absolutely true. Personally, I’ve had my moments where I felt unlovable, alone, or like no one cared—but those were just lies I was telling myself. Since my trip to Medjugorje, my heart has been overflowing with a renewed love for Mary and God. Every morning, I ask them to guide my thoughts and words. The freedom I’ve found in that has been incredible. I trust, with my whole heart, that I’m never alone, and they’re with me every step I take.

Remember, prayers are never unanswered—they just don’t always come in the ways or timing we expect. We need to relax, let go, and let love flow in.

Try imagining yourself in a canoe. You’re sitting at the front, and God is behind you, steering the boat. All you have to do is paddle. It sounds tricky, but it’s a gentle reminder that we’re not in charge—God is. This mental image has helped me so much, and I plan to keep it in my heart for the rest of my life.

So, on this Valentine’s Day, I want you to know that God and Mary love you. You are never alone, no matter what that little voice in your head may try to tell you.

Have an amazing day! And you know what else? I love you, too. 💖

Community and Team Spirit

Happy Friday, everyone!

The Philadelphia Eagles are back in the Super Bowl, facing off against the Kansas City, Chiefs! This time they’re playing in New Orleans and let me tell you—the Eagles are going to win! I can feel it! If you’re into betting, the odds as of right now (Feb 6th at noon) give the Chiefs a 54% chance of winning and the Eagles 46%. But come on, we got this! LOL.

Now, I’m not going to pretend I’m the most die-hard, all-knowing fan. I’m not a fair-weather fan either—I guess you could say I’m happily somewhere in between.

What I really love, though, is the sheer passion that sports ignite—especially in Philly! Eagles fans, Redskins fans (that’s what they were called when I lived in DC back in the late 80s and early 90s), and Cardinals fans before they moved to Arizona all have one big thing in common—they love their teams. It’s like a whole city comes together as one, cheering for the home team. Nothing else matters in that moment—just that shared pride.

This weekend, it’s Philly’s time to shine! I’ve been watching from afar as everyone gets hyped for the big game. From decked-out Eagles gear to themed cookies and even drones flying overhead—Eagles spirit is everywhere. It’s all about that win!

It kind of reminds me of how passionate European cities get about soccer (or football, as they say over there). Have you ever seen those wild crowds on TV or in shows like Ted Lasso? When the finals roll around, cities go all out, and everyone shows up to support their team.

There’s something so beautiful about how sports bring people together. It doesn’t matter how you voted or what you believe—what matters is that you’re proudly sporting your team’s colors and sharing the excitement.

Here’s a fun fact: 124 million people watched the Super Bowl last year, compared to just 67 million who tuned in for the Presidential debate. Isn’t that wild? I guess for a lot of people, the Super Bowl feels way more important. After all, most folks already know which way they’ll vote, so why bother with the debates? LOL.

But this weekend isn’t about politics—it’s about sportsmanship, epic commercials, chicken wings, chips, and dip. Whether you’re a superfan or just there for the snacks, it’s all about having fun and being part of something bigger.

If you’re sober, remember to bring your favorite non-alcoholic drink to the party or make sure your fridge is stocked up. Trust me—you’ll thank yourself later!

Stay safe, have fun, and Fly Eagles Fly!

It’s all your fault LOL

Blame Game...

I’m heartbroken for everyone affected by the tragic crash on Wednesday night in Washington, D.C. It’s just devastating—something that shouldn’t have happened. But let’s be honest—how many accidents in life could have been avoided? Even slipping on black ice in your own driveway can be prevented if you take a moment to scatter rock salt or tread carefully. Hindsight is always 20/20.

Every accident in life has the potential to be avoided. That’s a fact. But what really grinds my gears is the endless finger-pointing that follows. As soon as tragedy strikes, the news cycle turns into a circus of blame—politicians speculating, experts analyzing, people searching for a single reason to explain everything.

Now some folks are saying that diversity hiring practices (DEI initiatives) might have somehow contributed to this crash. Seriously? That’s quite a stretch, even for politics. You all know I love our President, but at what point do we just stop the nonsense? I’m so tired of the he-said-she-said drama from both sides of the aisle.

Wouldn’t it be hilarious if we had a "time-out room" for politicians? Imagine senators and congressmen being sent to sit quietly and reflect whenever they act out, lie, or just behave like jerks. I’d pay to see that.

Money Talks (and Sometimes It Lies)

I’ll be real with you—I love spending money. Making it? Not so much! Writing and producing podcasts? Now that brings me joy. Sure, I’d love for this podcast to support itself and even make me rich someday. But here’s the thing—will I stay true to myself if that day ever comes? Will I chase dollars at the cost of authenticity? I sure hope not.

Money makes people do wild, unethical things. It’s human nature—we fear we won’t get what we want or that we’ll lose what we have. But here’s the kicker: nothing stays the same. Life is unpredictable, and none of us know when the next "accident" will happen. That’s where faith comes in.

God’s Got This

I believe God has a plan—He knows when we’re born and when we’ll take our last breath. Sure, we can eat well, exercise, and drink more water, but at the end of the day, we’re not in control. Companies may sell you on products promising longer, healthier lives, and hey, maybe some of that stuff works—but it doesn’t really matter.

What does matter is how we treat each other. If we all acted like today was our last day, imagine how much kinder, more patient, and loving we’d be. Life would be a whole lot more pleasant, wouldn’t it?

Accidents will happen—they always do. My hope is that when life throws me a curveball, I can manage through it with faith and trust that God’s got a plan.

Enjoy your weekend, and I hope you find time for some fun. Stay safe, stay kind, and maybe spread a little joy along the way.

Love,
Bizzy

Choose Light Over Dark!

Did you know that when painting, the first thing you focus on is the dark spaces? That’s right! When I took a painting class last year, our instructor taught us how shadows define the light. The light shines brightest when it’s contrasted with the dark—cool, right?

Take the ocean, for example. Even though it seems light and airy, there are shadows everywhere. Not black shadows, but deep blues that bring the waves to life. The same applies to life: darkness is inevitable, but it doesn’t have to define us.

So, here’s a question—when you notice darkness in your life, do you move toward it or away from it? Something to ponder!

For me, I know I’m off when I’m feeling blah or not my usual optimistic self. Gray skies or a gloomy environment can really drag me down, which is why I planted myself here in sunny Florida! ☀️ Seasonal blues are no joke, and the lack of sunshine can hit hard.

And honestly, I’m super sensitive to “dark” stuff in every sense. Violent TV shows? Hard pass. Creepy movies? Nope! JF might roll his eyes, but I’ll take Frank Sinatra or Kenny Chesney over dark, brooding music any day! You’ll usually find me jamming to happy tunes about beaches, love, and fun times with friends.

Here’s my truth:

I can’t handle dark energy, so I don’t invite it in. Period. Life’s too short for that, and I’m all about filling my world with light.

The thing is, we all have stuff going on—things that can drag us down if we let them. But here’s the kicker: most of that stuff is out of our control. Sitting around and replaying the same negative tapes in our heads? That’s like swirling down a toilet bowl—and trust me, it’s dark down there!

Instead, I’ve learned to focus on what does bring light into my life. It’s a daily practice—like working out for your soul. Move a muscle, change a mindset. It’s made all the difference for me, and it can for you too.

So, what makes you feel lighter? Is it a walk on the beach, laughing with friends, or cranking up your favorite feel-good playlist? Whatever it is, lean into it. Life’s too precious to waste in the shadows.

I’d love to hear what brightens your world—shoot me a reply and let me know!

Wishing you a weekend filled with love, light, and laughter.

Sending all the sunshine your way!

Social Media: A Love-Hate Relationship

Hey friends,

Social media—it’s everywhere. Facebook, Instagram, TikTok (which I don’t even use)—they’re practically life’s new necessities. Twenty years ago, who would’ve thought we’d be glued to a tiny screen, spying on people we haven’t seen in decades? Yet here we are. Do I really care what your dog ate for breakfast or how your kid’s soccer game went? Nope. But I look anyway!

Let’s be real, social media is like a sneaky little trap. I used to scroll endlessly and feel all the feels—envy, comparison, you name it. I’d see someone’s perfect vacation pic and think, “Wow, must be nice,” or “At least I’m not wearing that outfit.” These apps are designed to suck us in and mess with our emotions, just like Frankenstein’s monster—but shinier.

Even scarier? A doctor on my podcast said kids who lose screen time react like they’re coming off heroin. HEROIN! Back in my day, we didn’t know who was having a party we weren’t invited to, and we were better off for it. Today’s kids are scrolling instead of creating, watching instead of imagining. Creativity has turned into a TikTok trend.

I’ve been there, too. When I started my podcast, I craved likes and comments. But now I know my worth isn’t measured in followers or analytics—it’s in doing what I love and helping just one person. Sure, big numbers would be nice (hello, sponsors!), but I’m not about to sell my soul to the social media devil.

God has a plan. Life is beautiful, but we miss it when we’re too busy living vicariously through someone else’s highlight reel. Put down the phone. Hug your family. Pet your dog. Or just sit quietly and enjoy being you.

Live your life, not someone else’s.

Big hugs and love,

Do Your Old Thoughts Keep You Stuck?

Hello friends!

Welcome to 2025! This January, Conversations with Bizzy is diving into a theme that’s been on my heart: “Letting Go of What No Longer Serves You.”

The new year is always a great time to dream big and set goals, but I’ve found it’s also an opportunity to reflect on the past—learning from it, not dwelling in it. Looking back at 2024, I’ve realized there are some patterns and decisions that just don’t serve me anymore. I’m determined to release them!

For me, peace, serenity, and quality time with the people I love have become my priorities. I’ve also learned (the hard way!) not to rush into relationships or commitments that aren’t right for me. Yep, some mistakes cost more than others—literally and emotionally! But instead of beating myself up, I’m asking,“What can I learn from this? How can I make better choices in the future?”

Here’s another big realization: I haven’t always given myself enough credit.For years, I let self-doubt and old stories from my past hold me back. Buthere’s the truth: I am smart. I am capable. And I can do anything I set mymind to!

We all carry childhood wounds that can resurface in our adult lives. In the past, I would drown those feelings with busyness or distractions (hello, drinking). But now, I face them head-on—and let me tell you, it’s freeing!

One of the things I’ve embraced is learning new skills, even if they seem intimidating. Case in point: technology. In 2024, I leaned into the magic of Google, YouTube, and even ChatGPT (shoutout for teaching me how to use my digital calendar!). It’s empowering to tackle challenges on my own—and it’s are reminder that we’re never too old to learn.

My grandmother worked into her 70s, and I think she was onto something.Staying curious and challenging ourselves keeps our minds sharp and our spirits alive. So, this year, I’m giving myself permission to embrace new tools, face my fears, and grow in ways I never thought possible.

Let’s not let old, limiting self-talk keep us from becoming the brightest versions of ourselves. This is our year to shine!

With love and light,
Bizzy

Happy New Year and hello, 2025! 🎉

Can you believe I woke up at 3 a.m. and thought, OMG, I didn’t send out a newsletter this week! After an entire year of not missing a single Friday, here I am slacking already in 2025. 😂 Okay, not really—I was just enjoying the holidays and decided to give myself a much-needed break. Now, I’m back, refreshed, and ready to roll!

I hope you had the chance to relax and enjoy the season too.

So, here’s the scoop: we kicked off 2025 by starting The Bible in a Year with Father Mike Schmitz, and it’s been amazing. Can you believe it’s only been a week? You know that moment when you sign up for something and immediately think, what have I gotten myself into? Yeah, me too. But let me tell you—this has been such an incredible experience. I look forward to my daily dose of scripture. It’s so enlightening to learn about how it all began.

If this sparks your interest, it’s not too late to join us!

Here’s what you’d be signing up for: as of now, we’re a small but mighty group of seven—men and women—who meet every Sunday at 4 p.m. EST on Zoom. We chat about the week’s readings and share our thoughts and questions. It’s not a lecture or a debate; it’s a real conversation. Everyone brings their unique perspective, and we break things down together.

For example, if someone says, wait a minute—what we read on page 10 didn’t make sense. Can we talk about it? —we dive in and explore it as a group. It’s a safe, welcoming space where everyone’s opinion is valued. We encourage honesty and sharing straight from the heart.

Here’s the thing: I’ve always wanted to read the Bible because, let’s face it, it’s the most-read book in the world every year. I didn’t want to be the only one who hasn’t read it! I want to understand it, be informed, and speak about it from a place of knowledge.

In the past, I’d pick up the Bible on January 1st, all motivated to read it, only to feel overwhelmed and confused. I’d wonder, how did someone live for 500 years? It was mind-boggling! Reading it alone felt like trying to decipher a foreign language. But doing this as a group changed everything.

Honestly, I had a little FOMO (fear of missing out) when I realized how many others understand and connect with the Bible. That’s why I finally committed—and I couldn’t be happier. If this resonates with you, I’d love for you to join us!

Here’s the link to hop in:

Oh, and fun fact: did you know Bible sales surged by 22% in the U.S. last year? Clearly, people are hungry for connection and understanding.

Maybe I’ll see you tomorrow on Zoom, but if not, have a fabulous week! I’ll be back in your inbox on Friday.

Until then, take care, sending hugs and so much love your way. 💛

Welcome 2025: A Year of Connection, Joy, and Gratitude

Happy New Year!

As I sit here reflecting on 2024, I feel a deep sense of gratitude and pride. This past year, I committed to writing a weekly newsletter and keeping the podcast going, and I’m proud of sticking with it. For many years, I wasted so much time beating myself up, comparing myself to others, and chasing validation that didn’t matter. Looking back now, I realize what a waste that mindset was—and how freeing it is to finally embrace who I am and my mission.

Throughout this journey, loved ones and mentors have challenged me with tough but meaningful questions. When I’ve felt discouraged—frustrated that my podcast doesn’t get thousands of downloads or make any money—they’ve always asked, “Why are you doing this?”

My answer is simple: I do this to help people.

I want to share real, unfiltered stories that show others they’re not alone. That’s been my mission from the very start, and it remains at the heart of everything I do.

When I was younger, I often felt alone—even in a crowded room. Whether I was at a party, dressed to the nines, or surrounded by family, there was always this deep emptiness inside. I’d drink to quiet the thoughts of not being good enough or feeling like I didn’t belong. Alcohol numbed the pain, but it also trapped me in a dark cycle of isolation.

In 2006, I hit a breaking point and realized I needed help. It was the scariest moment of my life—giving up what felt like my best friend and my only way to cope. But I made a commitment, and when I commit to something, I stick to it.

Since that day, I haven’t picked up a drink, and I’ve discovered one of the biggest lies I believed: I was never alone. That belief kept me in the dark for so long, and I never want to go back there.

So how do I stay in the light? By sharing joy, stories, and hope.

Through my podcast and newsletter, I hope to make someone else’s day just a little easier. Whether it’s through sharing my own experiences or inviting incredible guests to share theirs, my goal is to offer tips, stories, and connection that bring hope and healing.

This year has been an amazing journey, and I’m thrilled to keep it going in 2025.

Thank you so much for reading my newsletter, subscribing, and being part of this journey. It’s been an honor to share my heart with you every week. I even think my writing has improved (thank you for sticking with me!).

As we welcome 2025, my wish for you is this: more joy and less self-inflicted pain. Let go of the negative self-talk and focus on gratitude—just one day at a time.

You are not alone, and you are so loved.

Sending hugs and kisses,
Elizabeth “Bizzy” Chance

Let Go of Fear!

Can you imagine reaching a place where you no longer feared the unknown? A space where you trusted that what’s around the corner won’t harm you? To me, that would be absolute freedom. Not spending time consumed by “what ifs” about the future is my personal definition of peace.

We’re just five days away from Jesus’s birth, and it’s so easy to get swept up in the chaos of Christmas—the gifts, the tree, the meals, and my adult children coming home for the holidays. Striving for perfection in all of it? It can drive me crazy! But I must pause and ask myself: What truly matters this time of year? Is it about achieving perfection, or is it about finding peace, being still, and thanking God for sending Jesus to Earth for all of us?

This season, I’ve been listening to Advent reflections on the Hallow App and Ascension with Father Mike Schmitz. On the 18th, Father Mike spoke about fear and shared a story I’d heard before but never fully absorbed—until now.

He talked about Joseph. When Mary revealed she was pregnant with the Messiah through immaculate conception, Joseph was confused, fearful, and even considered divorcing her. Can you imagine? In today’s world, I think I’d probably run for the hills, too! How could Mary be “the one God chose”? Joseph’s fears were real, and his gut reaction was, “I need to get divorced.” Yet he didn’t follow through—he trusted God.

Reflecting on Joseph’s fear brought me back to my first marriage. When things got tough, my first instinct was also to run. “This is too much! I can’t handle it!” My fears about the future and regrets from the past felt overwhelming. Looking back 20 years later, I think: If I had taken the time to get sober, reach out for professional help, or even lean on my faith, would my life have been different? Of course, it would have. But would it have been better or worse? I’ll never know—and it doesn’t matter. What matters is that I’ve learned not to let fear dictate where I’m going.

Father Mike reminded me of something profound: None of us know what the future holds. The only certainty is that we will all leave this Earth someday. So why do we waste so much energy projecting what might happen tomorrow, next week, or next year?

Joy. Peace. Love. Gratitude. These gifts exist in the now. Worrying about the future—something none of us can predict—is a complete waste of time. I want to trust that everything will unfold in God’s time, not mine. My job is to live life one day at a time, one moment at a time.

Years of experience have taught me this: Nothing is inherently “good” or “bad”—it just is. My role is to learn from the past, avoid projecting negativity into the future, and stop setting unrealistic expectations. I once heard that expectations are premeditated resentments—and it’s true. Life feels so much lighter when we let go of what we wish would happen and accept things as they are.

This will be the third Christmas my son won’t be home, and yes, it breaks my heart. I wish I could change it, but I can’t. I have to trust that God has a plan.

To anyone reading this: I pray you have a wonderful Christmas. Take a moment to reflect on this—you’re doing the best you can, and that’s enough. Life isn’t easy for any of us, and no one has a “perfect” life. (Honestly, I think the only “normal” thing is Wonder Bread!). You are uniquely you, and that’s beautiful. Embrace it.

In closing, I want to share the Serenity Prayer, a powerful tool that has helped me navigate moments of fear and uncertainty:

The Serenity Prayer
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. Remember—you are never alone. God is with you every step of the way.

Sending you big hugs and so much love this Christmas season.

Merry Christmas!

Have a Happy Holiday Season…. No Matter What!

Now you may be asking yourself:

o   How in the world can I have an amazing time…I have invited blank to our dinner?

o   How can I have a fun holiday…a family member is sick?

o   How can I have fun…my family is totally dysfunctional?

o   How can I have fun…I am broke?

o   How can I have fun…I am going to be alone?

I am sure there are many more questions out there to challenge me about how to have fun when my life isn’t perfect. The answer to all the questions that I have mentioned is no matter what you believe is in your way to happiness, God always provides something positive and your only job is to find the positive in your own life.

Again, you may be scratching your head and thinking, “There is nothing positive in my life!”

I challenge you this holiday season to find something in your life that brings a smile to your face.

Now I can name a few things that make me happy, and I don’t think that I am the only one that finds happiness inthese:

Watching “It’s a Wonderful Life”

Watching “Meet Me in St. Louis”

The movie “Home Alone”, just the look on Kevin’s face is funny!

“Elf”! Will Farrell trying to fit into a child’s chair is just hysterical.

Driving around and looking at Christmas lights while your favorite carols are playing in the background.

Baking.

Reading an amazing book.

Writing out a gratitude list.

Dream….

Make plans for something that you have wanted to do for a long time…a bucket list item.

Time is such a fleeting thing and I think at times that I will have all the time in the world to do what I want to do but let’s face it, time is speeding past! It is time to get into action. Enough thinking!

My go-to in life is relaxing and letting go of the noise. I can always find happiness in the quiet and when I turn things over to God.

How do I do this.

1.     I try to wear life like a loose garment. Meaning I envision myself in a flowy dress and nothing else. Like when I get home from a day at the beach and shower then throw on a dress that is unconstricting and breezy. This visual gives me the feeling that everything is alright. I am comfortable and the world is good! (Even when it is spinning out of control)

2.     Listen to the song, “Let it Go” from “Frozen”!

3.     I pray and use the Hallow app religiously (no pun intended). I have found so many great challenges and meditations that help propel me into a better space.

4.     One of the collections I love has a prayer at the end that you repeat 10 times. That prayer is “O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything” This is my definition of freedom and happiness.

Bottom line is that happiness is an inside job.

We will not find happiness unless we first find it for ourselves. It is hard I know! But take the time to be nice to you and love you! Once you do that your life will fall into place. In the beginning you may have to fake liking yourself! As I learned a long time ago, fake it till you make it.

Have a wonderful weekend and week ahead, I’ll be back next Friday and until then be nice to you!

Forgiveness

Why is forgiveness so hard for people? I know that I have had a very hard time forgiving others in my life and I believe in the end it has hurt me more.

When I saw that President Joe Biden pardoned his son Hunter, it didn’t surprise me or anger me at all. It was a human moment for the President. In the end wouldn’t we all pardon our child? I know if the roles were reversed, and I was the President and my child battled addiction I would pardon my child. I know that Hunter is a broken soul. He has battled addiction for years, in fact probably his entire life.

Hunter lost his mother and sister in a horrendous car accident in which they both were killed. He was 3 years old and was in the car, but he and his brother Beau lived. The event was very traumatizing, Hunter walked away from the accident, but he had a brain injury. Again traumatizing.

Then when Hunter was 45 his brother Beau passed away from Brain Cancer!

And you wonder why the President has such a soft spot for his child! Hunter is his only living child from his marriage with his wife Neilia Hunter Biden. Side note - I see that Hunter was named after his mom; her maiden name was Hunter.

His son Hunter battles the disease of addiction and speaking as an addict it isn’t an easy disease to battle. Insurance refers to the addict as “mentally ill”. I can attest to that; our brains are wired differently: especially if one has as much trauma as Hunter has.

Self-forgiveness is very hard for the addict. We are constantly looking back, “Who did I hurt: why did I pick up again?” And “I hate who I am and what I have done”. That constant nagging in our head and heart leads us back to our drug of choice. I do not think that Hunter is necessarily a bad person, but he makes bad choices when he is inactive addiction. His father just wants to love his son and wants his son to love himself. Hence, he did what every parent would do and that is save his son from going to prison. I don’t think the President had any choice. He had to doit for Hunter and his late wife. His conscience wouldn’t allow his son to sit in jail.

He has forgiven his son! I know he prays daily that his son gets better and if keeping him out of prison will do that, he would do it time and time again. Was the President’s decision best for Hunter? I believe probably not but I am not his parent nor God. Why? Because maybe Hunter needs to go to prison. It may be what in the end helps him. But again, I am not God nor his parent.  

The shame Hunter endures is something that I can relate to personally. I have carried shame, I think, for my entire life….it is so hard to let go of who I used to be. In our Bible study this past Sunday we spoke a lot about shame.

We are going through Father Mike Schmitz’s study about Advent called Face to Face.

Here is the link, Check out this plan: Face to Face: Advent with Fr. Mike Schmitz

Meeting ID: 996 3966 6634
Passcode:831422.

What I found so interesting is that Father has urged the listeners to “step out from our shame”.He also spoke about anxiety and brokenness. It was very thought provoking. Our conversations were raw. We all carry shame. Unfortunately, shame grows when we keep our secrets inside of ourselves and we don’t share them. The isolation and self-loathing help to keep the shame growing and our personal sadness stick!

Rather than keeping your secrets it is time to let yourself be seen! Forgive yourself!

God has already forgiven you! God loves you more than I could ever express in words. But God’s love is always there, he knows who we are! All the lies and hurts he is already aware of! He knows, so who cares what other humans think about you? Friends come and go and so does family for that matter. So why not just be you!

Let your true self shine with all your heart

I believe forgiveness takes work! Speaking to a therapist, a priest, a sponsor or doing the 12 steps from Alcoholics Anonymous can help you get to the place where you no longer regret the past nor wish to shut the door on it.

My personal shame lingers at times, but I am continually working on myself. It isn’t easy but getting closer to God and our Blessed Mother Mary has helped more than I can describe. I know God loves me and you! Our egos are so big that we think that we are unforgivable people but that isn’t true! I love the acronym of EGO, easing God out. God has forgiven us, and it is time to forgive ourselves.

Get to work.

Love you all and thank you for reading.

Black Friday  

I remember when Black Friday was introduced! Marketing it at its finest. Run, you must get the deals! Set your alarms because the store is opening at midnight, and you don’t want to miss this once in a lifetime deal! Anxiety and fear inducing advertising. Did you fall for it?

Not to shame you but I never did…because let’s face it I wasn’t going to go stand in the cold with a bunch of strangers in the middle of the night in the freezing cold hoping to get my hands on an item that I could wait for.

I am writing this on Thanksgiving morning, and I feel like the same fear and anxiety provoking behavior is now happening all the time! Its Thanksgiving and the media are promoting fear at your Thanksgiving dinner table! Just because you didn’t all vote the same way? Give me a break!

In my humble opinion I think that we all cherish our family time a lot more than politics!

It is the start of Advent on Sunday and I for one is excited. Not only because I can unapologetically listen to Christmas music all day long, and decorate my home like Mrs. Claus, but it is the start of the real meaning of Christmas, Jesus’s birth.

This Sunday I start my Bible Study and I am over the moon to start reading the bible with friends from all over the Country. If you want to join here is the link patreon.com/elizabethchance. I have never read the bible from cover to cover, and it has been on my so-called bucket list for a long time. We are going to use Father Mike Schmitz book, “Bible in a Year”. It should not only be a learning experience but a time to bond with people over the greatest book ever written. I love that Ben Shapiro says, “it is the best self-help book ever written”.

This Christmas season will be about getting closer to God and celebrating the real meaning of Christmas. No drama and no anxiety or fear, just love, hope and peace.

It’s ironic that God tell us not to fear numerous times in the bible. We need to trust, let go and know that everything is going to be ok! This does not mean that everything is going to be easy, or life is going to look the way we think it should look, but it will be the way God has intended. It is crazy that everything that I thought was so painful to go through in my life is where I have learned the most.

My hope for all of you reading this is that you go into this holiday season with less anxiety and expectations. That you all can enjoy each day and cherish it like it could be your last and know that God is good. Life is a gift, and the best present is living in the present rather than the past or the future.

Talk to you all next week and until then sending blessings and love to you all.

Again, I am grateful for everyone reading this.

God bless you.

Things are changing….

Do you ever feel like you have been at something for so long and it isn’t getting the results you had envisioned? What do you do? Give up? Pivot? Or walk away frustrated? 

I have been having these feelings for a while….

For those of you that know me personally know that I am very extroverted and outgoing. When I meet a stranger they feel like we are friends right away. From a brief conversation the person will ask, “What do you do?” My answer is always, “I host a podcast.” Then they respond, “What is the name of your podcast? What do you talk about?” My response is “Sobriety and it’s called Busy Living Sober”.... They then think about it and respond, “That is nice, but I don’t have a drinking problem.” Hence I would walk away scratching my head… my podcast isn’t all about sobriety, but the name! UGH…

When I started Busy Living Sober my main objective was to change the stigma associated with addiction. I can say with certainty that is happening! More and more podcasts are coming out discussing sobriety. Either people are getting sober because they have a real problem or they are “sober curious” and they have come to the conclusion that alcohol is not great for them. In general my main objective is coming into fruition and for that I am grateful and feel like today it is time to change! 

In the past I have made little changes but nothing stuck! I did as they say half ass! 

I have some fear! I will lose some of my devoted followers if I change. It has been 8 years recording under the same name and changing it could cause confusion and backlash. But not doing anything is not an option anymore! 

I have come to the fork in the road where I am either going to continue or change. Go straight or get off of the path that I am on and try something new. The road I choose may be a little rocky and bumpy at first but it is time to change things up!

You may be thinking, “What is she doing?” 

I am still going to be sharing people’s stories under my new name. I am just going to be able to share more peoples stories, not just recovering alcoholics and drug addicts. 

My new mission is  “Real talks about life, love and finding the light within”

What do you think my new title of the show is going to be??? 

Reach out and let me know what your thoughts are and stay tuned this week for new reveals. I promise you are going to love the new changes. 

BTW if you feel like you need a change in your life please reach out with what you are going through…you may be my next guest.

Thanks for always being there and supporting me. 

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I know that all of you are going to be mentioned when I share what I am grateful for this past year. 

Gobble, gobble, gobble. 

Love you all.

The Spirit of the Season

Hi hope today’s newsletter finds each one of you well.

Do you feel the energy in the air? The hope and excitement that life is getting back to what it used to be like is what I've been feeling. I used to wait until after Thanksgiving to put up all my Christmas decorations, but now I'm really itching to do it! The carols, lights, trees, and feelings that come with Christmas—I'm so excited for it all! I read some article or something that said if you start listening to Christmas music and decorate early, you'll be happier. So why not?

Why not? Should we move up Christmas, so it lasts from before Thanksgiving through New Year’s? As I write this, I think… NO, we should wait, but I am so excited for Christmas.

Wow, this is an example of how writing things down puts life into perspective. I know that I've had times where thoughts keep coming, one after another.Rational, irrational, but they keep coming. My mind isn't quiet, and I want to react to each idea and feeling, but we can't. Writing down what's happening in our minds can hopefully give us perspective.

Just a side note LOL

Back to the impending holidays. This week kind of felt like Christmas for me. I had the chance to go in front of the camera. "Inside South Florida ," a lifestyle show here in South Florida, (if you want to take a look at the show https://www.wsfltv.com/inside-south-florida, I’ll be sharing the clip once it gets published Thanksgiving night) invited me on. I spoke briefly about my story and made two mocktails. It was so much fun! I just love being in front of the camera; it felt so natural.

For so long, all I wanted was to be on TV! I love lights, camera, action! I applied for so many jobs in TV and never got the callback. My excuses to soothe myself were that I am too old, too fat, and maybe not good enough. Instead of waiting for a job, I decided to make my own show. No regrets! Everything has happened exactly as God planned.

I tell you this story because it reflects how life is; we have dreams. We all grow up hoping we can be this or that, and sometimes it happens easily for some. From afar, it looks like they didn't put in much effort, yet their dreams came true. For others, more obstacles are placed in front of us. The key is staying true to yourself. Don't give up! God has a plan

My dream of my show growing means changing its name. My 500th podcast is coming out on November 27, and moving forward, the show will be called"Conversations with Bizzy". I believe this name change will expand my audience beyond just sobriety talks.

Lastly, to help you get excited about the coming holidays, we are going to start reading the Bible on December 1, 2024. If you're interested, or if you have a friend or neighbor who might be, please sign up to my Patreon at patreon.com/busylivingsoberpodcast.We'll have open and honest conversations about what we've read that week in the Bible, discussing any questions or confusions we may have.

That’s enough from me!

Have a stupendous weekend and week, and I’ll be back next Friday.

Sending love and hugs

Phew…

I am so relieved!

Day 3 of knowing that President Donald J Trump will be sworn in on Monday January 20, 2025! BTW do you any of you know how I can get tickets for the inauguration? I am so HAPPY!

Tuesday morning started with my phone ringing; friends were so worried! “What is going to happen with the election Elizabeth, I am so scared I am pacing all around my house.” My response was “Don’t worry, God didn’t save him on July 13, 2024, in Butler, PA for no reason. He is going to win”. Now, I was kind of nervous myself, but I was taught one must fake it till you make it.

The only problem that I find unfortunate is the responses from some Democrats. They seem to feel like the world is coming to an end. As a Republican in 2020 I was frightened because for one, I thought the election was stolen and two was that I had no idea how Joe Biden was going to govern. Here, 3 ½ years later, no wonder I worried; life has been totally upside down. 2+2 does not equal 4! The lesson I learned was that I had justified fear.

With Trump, we have already experienced him being President. There were no wars, my checking account had a larger balance, I didn’t leave the gas pump thinking, gosh that was a lot. Not to mention the grocery store! We are only buying for 2 and every time I leave the store, I look at my cart and am flabbergasted by how little I got and how much it cost! With Trump as our commander and chief life will resemble more of what I am used to. That brings me a lot of comfort.

One last point I must make: isn’t it crazy that the minute he won, Hamas has decided to no longer attack Israel. Is that a coincidence? I think not. They called an immediate end of war right after Trump won.

Change is hard but thankfully I believe that America is going to be Great Again! This is just the beginning.

Let’s all come together and pray, thank God that in January life is going to be better!

Take care everyone.

Sending big hugs and love.

Until till next time.

Have a wonderful weekend.

History always repeats itself…

In 5 days, on November 6th, we will hopefully have a new President and we will know exactly who won this election. I don’t know about you, but I am so tired of the back and forth and the name calling. This election feels like it has been going on for years…I guess it has been, but I am so tired of it. Are you?

The crazy thing is that people are saying we won’t have results for a long time. They are also saying that there will be a civil war whoever wins and that the powers that be really want civil unrest.

My big question is who are the powers that be? Who is at the helm of the Democratic party? Joe Biden? I don’t think so. Kamala Harris? I don’t it’s her either…we have guesses at who it is but why in the world isn’t the person who is calling the shots acknowledging and taking responsibility for their role?

Why don’t we have transparency? Again, the powers that be think that we, the American public, can’t handle the truth. What are we? All a bunch of babies? I don’t get it.

This most interesting bit of information that I received was from my husband this week. He read an article about the presidential election of 1800 between Thomas Jefferson and John Adams. They behaved like children too back then. John Adams weaponized the Sedition Act to have Jefferson supporters imprisoned. His supporters also asserted that if Jefferson won it would mean the end of the republic.

And Jefferson’s supporters said that if Adams were re-elected, he would never leave office and in fact he would turn the office of the presidency into a monarchy and name himself king!

As we know from history, in the end both men served as President of the United States.

But doesn’t all this sound familiar 224 years later?

We still don’t have a King, and life goes on.

What still bothers me is the fact that we don’t know who is behind the Democratic party. Obviously 224 years ago we didn’t have cell phones, televisions, and all the numerous forms of communications that we have today. In 2024 we have more confusion than ever. One person is right, one person is wrong but there is no nonbiased information out there.

So, on November 6th where will we be? In even more confusion than we are today? Everyone will have cast their votes, once or twice for some and what will the results be? Will it matter? Will we still be living in a hateful world? Or will it be time to surrender and relax? We will have one winner and the fight will be over at least for the next 3 years. We can have peace.

I know I sound delusional, but it would sure be nice if next Friday’s newsletter I can talk about how all the fear and other negative emotions I have felt the last year plus were for nothing. In the end, the winner is the one most of the public elected. Because we as a whole think that this one person will help us move forward, closer to peace and an economy that will not longer eat every cent at the grocery store and gas pump.

Here I go again walking down an optimistic path.

On election night I may just have to watch Netflix and see how the aftermath looks on Wednesday.

God is good and he knows what is best even if it is different than some believe it ought to be. Trust in the process.

Until next Friday be well and breathe and pray that the best person wins this historic race.

Sending best wishes to all.

Where Do You Find Community?

For those who might not know, I was raised Roman Catholic. I practiced faithfully until the disturbing reports about the priests came to light. That was my breaking point, leading me to join St. David’s Episcopal Church.

When I left Catholicism, I was confident in my decision, especially for the sake of my children. They received their sacraments at St. David’s, where Reverend Frank Allen became not just our minister but a pivotal figure in our lives. He was more than a spiritual leader; he was family, helping me raise my kids as a single mother.

I'll never forget when Rev. Frank survived a horrific plane crash with his family. It felt like a divine intervention. Under his guidance, we learned about God, hope, and faith. His influence was profound, and I credit him and the St. David's community for much of my family's upbringing.

In December 2017, Rev. Frank married me and my husband in what was one of the most magical days of my life.

Life moved on; my youngest, Henry, left for university, marking the end of my hands-on mom era. With all my kids studying out of town, the house felt empty. So, in January 2019, we decided to escape to Florida for what was supposed to be six weeks. That was almost six years ago.

Florida's beaches and warmth captured our hearts, but something was missing—a church, a community. Finding 'our people' has proven to be quite the challenge.

Fast forward to 2024, in a world where everything feels inverted, where darkness seems all too close, and the need for light is desperate. I've searched for another Rev. Frank, but some people are irreplaceable.

This April, a trip to Medjugorje transformed me. Now, Jesus and Mary are central to my daily prayers. From rarely attending church, I've shifted to engaging with the gospel and praying the rosary every day.

Navigating a new church community has taught me patience and the importance of fit. In this journey, the Hallow App and various YouTube sermons have been my guide through these turbulent times.

Now, for some exciting news—On November 4th, right before what could be the most pivotal election of our lives, my friend Father Dan Reehil will join me on my podcast. We'll discuss why it's crucial to vote in this battle of good versus evil. Tune in, regardless of your political stance.

Moreover, starting December 1st, 2024, I'm launching a year-long Bible study group. We'll read the Bible from cover to cover, and you can join us from anywhere via Zoom. If you're interested in being part of this journey, reach out to me at elizabeth@elizabethchance.com.

Let's keep praying for our country and the world. Together, we can bring more light into the darkness.

Sending love to you all,

Two Weeks to Go: My Heart's Tug of War with Hope and Fear

I sit here 17 days from the Presidential election, and I am feeling both fearful and hopeful at the same time.

After spending the last year posting about who I am in favor of I continually hear backlash! I get that everyone gets an opinion but why, if someone doesn’t like what I put on my page, would they leave rude and negative comments? I would never in a million years go on another person’s page who has differing views and leave unnecessary comments.

Where did our right to believe what we want to believe go? I remember my parents not that long ago enjoying friends’ company who had different opinions than them and they still got along.

My thoughts are that social media has taken away all forms of manners and morals. Who cares? No one cares anymore, love of neighbor is gone. If you have differing ideas, then you are now an outcast!

Since admitting that I am an alcoholic over 18 years ago, I have learned so many things. I will not list them in this newsletter, or it would be pages and pages long. But one of the biggest takeaways is that everyone is allowed to believe what they want to believe and support whatever they want and the only thing that is important is not to pick up a drink. Hence, I haven’t had a drink since joining my fellowship.

Why I am bringing this up is that in my little club fellowship (with millions of members) we talk about a higher power who I call God and God is the most important thing in our lives. God is at the forefront of our lives. Most give credit for their sobriety to God. I may go one step further and say Jesus is the one that took away my obsession to drink.

With that said, in the world we are all living, whether you are a member of a program or not, God is in charge. God knows all and we are living today in darkness.

I have been talking a lot with my husband JF about this election and why we are supporting President Donald J. Trump, and we have many reasons and the most important is that we believe that his values match ours.

We both love God and our country; we grew up saying the Pledge of Allegiance and learned that we lived in the best country in the world. Times have changed and people no longer love God as much as they did, and they don’t really care about our country. It is more about loving ourselves, weare so self-centered today. Feed our little souls with materialism and goods. We know longer want to fill ourselves with love and community.

Yes, President Trump can be mean and crass, but we also believe that he is passionate. I am very passionate and when in I’m passionate about something what comes out of my mouth can be colorful. I get that every human is like this in some way. We all say things that later we wish we could take back, but we can’t go back all we can do is move forward. Since the President’s assassination attempts, I believe he has become a humble man. He loves America and what it stands for.

So many women are supporting Kamala Harris because of her abortion stance. It kind of confuses me. President Trump wants to leave the decision up to the States so that it is no longer a federal issue and women don’t like that. They want it to be a universal law. But some states in the Bible Belt feel much differently than people feel - let’s say in California. I think this is fair. There are more ways today to terminate a baby than there were when I was young.

Does human life really matter?

I have a conundrum, is it ok to kill babies and have wars all over the world where again innocent people are dying? Is it ok to kill any baby at any time and is it ok to have wars all over where women, men, children are killed for no reason but for oil or religious views? It is a fact that when President Trump was in office there were no new wars. Is that a coincidence or is it that leaders around the world respected him?

As you can see, I have never been a sheep and I don’t believe everything I read or watch but I can tell you I will not vote for a cackling idiot that could never meet with Putin or Kim and be taken seriously. I truly believe she is a threat to our democracy.

If you do not agree with me that is ok. But I will never understand that people support someone that was not even voted to her position. She took over Joe Biden’s post and did nothing to earn her Presidential nominee position, but from reading and listening I think this is how Kamala Harris rolls. She hasn’t worked for anything; she just fits the box that the Democrats want to be filled.

Enough of my babbling. I am fearful that if she were to win so many things in this country will get worse.

If history shows us anything it is that 4 years ago life was easier. People were still managing to get along. Groceries were not as expensive and neither were houses, gas, and everything else we purchase at stores. We were living in a country that 2+2=4! There weren’t wars all over the globe like there are today. Peace was had by all. Was life perfect? No! But we weren’t living in the insanity we are living in today.

Kamala Harris is supported by the machine that will not come out and say who they are even though we can all guess and assume who is in charge and the outcome of the Biden Harris office is ugly to say the least. It is so dark!

I for one don’t want to live in the dark anymore I want light!

If you disagree you are allowed your opinion but please send me your thoughts via email elizabeth@elizabethchance.com. Please no more negative comments on my social media pages.

Bottom line you do you boo boo.

God Bless you and this Country!

Until next time keep getting busy living sober.
