In this powerful solo episode of Get Set With Lissette, we explore inner child healing, emotional growth, and what it truly means to become the person you once needed.

What happens when parts of you grew up unseen, unheard, or unsupported? How do you give yourself now the safety, love, affirmation, and boundaries you once wished others would provide?

This episode is an honest reflection on healing, re-parenting yourself, and learning how to meet your own emotional needs with compassion and intention. I share personal insights into how emotional blind spots show up as people-pleasing, low self-worth, and fear of vulnerability — and how self-compassion and awareness can help you reconnect with your truth, your voice, and your worth.

Healing isn’t about erasing the past — it’s about understanding it, integrating it, and evolving from it with softness and strength.

🎧 In this episode, you’ll learn:
• What “becoming who you needed” really means
• How re-parenting yourself supports emotional healing and self-identity
• Why emotional blind spots keep us stuck
• Practical tools like writing to your younger self, emotional check-ins, and boundary setting
• How healing changes the way you show up in relationships, work, and confidence

✨ This episode will remind you:
Your healing doesn’t have to look perfect.
Your story still has value.
And you are allowed to give yourself what you needed.

🔑 Key Takeaways:
• Healing begins when you stop suppressing what you feel
• Self-compassion builds resilience, courage, and confidence
• Boundaries are a form of self-respect
• You can honor who you were and who you’re becoming

If you’re on a journey of personal growth, emotional healing, and self-worth, this episode is for you.

In this powerful episode of Get Set With Lissette, I sit down with Leslie Avila — owner of Delightfull Tea, co-founder of Raíces Creativas, creative visionary, and community storyteller — who is courageously redefining what it means to live in alignment with purpose, identity, culture, and ancestral truth.

This episode dives deep into purpose, identity, cultural roots, self-discovery, risk-taking, and personal growth — and the courage it takes to listen when your life begins to whisper toward change. Purpose is not a destination; it is a relationship we build with ourselves over time, and Leslie beautifully shares what it looks like to live in that space of becoming.

✨ We explore what happens when you truly listen to your inner call, honor where you come from, and take bold steps without having every answer.

Leslie opens up about reconnecting with her Indigenous ancestry, the evolution of her work through Delightfull Tea and Raíces Creativas, and the deeply personal journey that is now leading her to Ecuador. She shares how identity, culture, and courage have shaped her path — and how purpose often reveals itself in motion rather than certainty.

In this episode, we unpack:

• What “purpose” looks like in different seasons of life
• How identity and ancestry shape direction and self-worth
• The difference between alignment and familiarity
• Courage vs. comfort — and choosing which voice to follow
• Preparing emotionally, spiritually, and mentally for transformation
• How risk, faith, and becoming work together
• Support for anyone feeling disconnected from identity or purpose

🔥 If you’re navigating change, healing your story, or searching for clarity, this conversation reminds you that purpose often whispers before it shouts — and you are allowed to listen.

Welcome to a New Year’s special solo episode of Get Set With Lissette, a podcast dedicated to inspiring conversations that empower you to get set. This episode is an invitation to begin the year with reflection, intention, and alignment — without the pressure to become someone entirely new.

The New Year often brings expectations of bold resolutions, drastic reinvention, and audacious goals that don’t always honor where we truly are. In this episode, we slow the pace and shift the narrative. Instead of “New Year, New Me,” we focus on purpose over pressure, alignment over perfection, and the reminder that real growth doesn’t require a complete reset — it requires honesty, compassion, and intention.

🎆 Did you know?
The tradition of New Year’s resolutions dates back over 4,000 years to ancient Babylon, where resolutions were rooted in spiritual realignment — not hustle, productivity, or comparison. Somewhere along the way, intention became performance. This episode brings the focus back to what truly matters.

💭 In this episode, we explore:
• “New Year, New Me” vs. “Same Me, Just More Aligned”
• Why New Year’s resolutions often fail (and it’s not about discipline)
• Choosing a Word of the Year instead of rigid goals
• Reflecting on the past year without shame or guilt
• Letting go of pressure and embracing intentional growth
• Mental health check-ins at the start of the year
• Why becoming is more powerful than starting over

🌱 This episode is for you if:
• New Year pressure feels heavy or overwhelming
• You want to be intentional without burning out
• You’re craving purpose instead of perfection
• You believe alignment matters more than appearance

✨ Affirmation from this episode:
I enter this year with intention, compassion, and trust in who I am becoming.

You don’t need a new identity this year — just deeper alignment with who you already are.

👉 Call to Action:
• Listen to the full episode
• Subscribe to Get Set With Lissette for more intentional conversations
• Share this episode with someone navigating New Year pressure
• Reflect on your Word of the Year or one intention you’re setting

🎄 Merry Christmas from Get Set With Lissette 🎄

In this special solo Christmas episode of Get Set With Lissette, host Lissette Gonzalez slows things down for an honest, cozy, and heart-centered holiday conversation. While the Christmas season is often filled with music, movies, traditions, and laughter, it can also bring up grief, loss, trauma, and complex emotions. This episode is an invitation to make space for both joy and grief during the holidays — without guilt, pressure, or comparison.

✨ Get Set With Lissette is a podcast dedicated to inspiring conversations that empower you to get set, and this holiday reflection focuses on presence, compassion, mental health, and redefining what the season can look like for you.

🎄 A Christmas Reflection & History
Christmas is celebrated in over 160 countries worldwide, and many modern traditions — lights, evergreen trees, and festive meals — trace back to ancient celebrations of light, renewal, and hope during the darkest time of the year. This season has always been about finding light, even when things feel heavy.

🎬 Holiday Movies, Nostalgia & Fun Debate
From favorite Christmas movies to classic films everyone loves (that I may respectfully question 😄), we explore holiday nostalgia — including the age-old question: Is Die Hard a Christmas movie? Comfort classics, new releases, and festive fun are all part of this conversation.

🎵 Christmas Music & Emotional Connection
Holiday music has a powerful way of unlocking memories — joyful and painful. From old-school classics to modern holiday hits, we talk about why Christmas music can be emotionally activating, and why feeling something doesn’t mean weakness — it means awareness.

🕯️ Traditions, Meaning & Chosen Family
This episode explores family traditions, evolving rituals, chosen family, and creating new traditions when life changes. You’re allowed to keep what nourishes you and release what feels heavy.

✨ Honoring All Holidays This Season
We also acknowledge and honor Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and the Winter Solstice, recognizing that across cultures and faiths, this season centers on light, resilience, renewal, community, and hope.

❤️ Mental Health During the Holidays
If the holidays feel difficult, you’re not alone. Gentle reminders shared in this episode include:
• You don’t owe anyone cheer
• Rest is productive
• Boundaries are loving
• Joy and sadness can coexist

✨ A Gentle Holiday Reframe
The holidays don’t have to look like anyone else’s highlight reel. Presence matters more than perfection. Peace matters more than pressure.

💫 Affirmation:
I am allowed to experience this season in a way that feels safe, honest, and nourishing to me.

🎄 Closing Thoughts
As the year comes to a close, this episode reminds you that you are not behind — you are becoming.

👉 Call to Action:
• Share this episode with someone navigating the holidays
• Leave a review or comment your favorite Christmas movie, song, or tradition
• Subscribe to Get Set With Lissette on YouTube and your favorite podcast platform for more mental health-aware, heart-centered conversations

In this powerful solo episode of Get Set With Lissette, I’m diving into a struggle so many creators, leaders, entrepreneurs, and purpose-driven individuals are facing today:
How do you stay true to your message in a world obsessed with clickbait, virality, and constant noise?

This episode is a raw and honest conversation about pressure, performance, and the courage it takes to lead with intention—not trends. I share recent moments where I felt myself drifting into “performing,” and how grounding myself in purpose brought me back to truth, depth, and alignment.

💭 Because even in a viral culture, value still wins.

🎧 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

✔ What clickbait culture really is and how it drains creators and consumers
—from shocking headlines to surface-level content designed for attention, not authenticity.

✔ How chasing numbers leads to emotional and mental burnout
and why virality doesn’t always equal meaningful impact.

✔ Ways to stay rooted in your mission, message, and purpose
even when the algorithm encourages urgency, comparison, and noise.

✔ Practical tools to choose intention over performance
like pausing before you post, curating your digital diet, and redefining what “success” means.

✔ Real-life moments when I chose purpose over popularity
and how alignment feels even when it doesn’t trend.

✨ This Episode Reminds You:

• Your message doesn’t need to be extreme to be heard.
• Authenticity is your strategy.
• Impact lasts longer than any algorithm.

🔑 Key Takeaways:

1. Clickbait is loud—but depth outlasts virality.
2. Pausing before reacting brings you back into alignment.
3. Your personal impact metric matters more than public metrics.
4. Growth never requires compromising your values. Authenticity always cuts through the noise.

This conversation takes a deep dive into affordable housing, community leadership, equity, and the courage it takes to challenge systems that were never designed to work for everyone.

Dr. Amber shares the moment she realized passion wasn’t enough without access, how working within the system reshaped her calling, and why she founded EIA to equip community leaders with the tools, confidence, and pathways to lead change.

✅ How to stay grounded in purpose when the system feels inequitable
✅ Turning frustration into fuel — and the breakthroughs that follow
