In this powerful episode, Chaya & Jay sit down with Liz Russell, a master storyteller, strategist, and longtime leader who embodies courage, curiosity, and deep emotional intelligence. Their conversation explores how change truly happens — not through pressure, but through resonance, alignment, and the quiet bravery it takes to listen inward.

Liz shares her journey of discovering her voice, owning her values, and learning to lead from a place of grounded authenticity. She speaks candidly about the moments that shaped her — the pivots, the pauses, and the invitations life offers us to self-author. Her stories illuminate the heart of Intentional Change Theory, demonstrating how people move toward their ideal self when they are met with presence, compassion, and possibility.

Together, Liz, Jay and Chaya unpack:

• The transformative power of being fully seen

• Why storytelling unlocks healing and growth

• How leaders create psychological safety by modeling humanity

• What it means to coach with “radical generosity”

• How to ignite the Positive Emotional Attractor in everyday conversations

Liz brings the rigor of practice and the softness of wisdom — making this episode feel like both a masterclass and a warm invitation to step into your own expansion.

Listeners walk away with practical tools, reflective prompts, and a renewed sense that change is not only possible — it’s already unfolding when we dare to tell the truth of our experience.
