• 140: My Amish Upbringing, My Addiction, and How I Found Freedom
    May 12 2026

    What if every diet you have ever tried was never actually designed to teach you how to heal?

    In this deeply personal solo episode of The Lizzie Ens Show, Lizzie pulls back the curtain on the journey that built Undiet You from the ground up. She takes you all the way back to growing up in the Amish community in Ohio, navigating relentless body comparison as a twin, developing an eating disorder as a teenager, cycling through fad diets in her early twenties, and ultimately finding her calling as a board-certified functional practitioner helping women break free from the dieting cycle for good.

    This is not a polished highlight reel. This is the raw, honest story of what it actually takes to go from chronic dieting and self-destruction to building a thriving life and business rooted in real healing, and why Lizzie believes that food freedom starts long before what is on your plate.

    If you have ever felt like no matter how hard you try, diets just do not work for you, this episode is the explanation and the permission slip you have been waiting for.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • Why diets don't work for women and what they are actually teaching your body instead
    • How unaddressed emotional and mental patterns keep the dieting cycle spinning no matter what you eat
    • Why leaving diet culture behind requires healing from the inside out, not just changing what is on your plate
    • How Lizzie went from personal trainer to board-certified functional practitioner and why nutrition was the missing piece
    • Why your hardest seasons are often the exact preparation for your greatest purpose
    • What Undiet You is built on and why it goes far deeper than food and exercise

    We talk about:

    • 00:00 Where Undiet You was really born
    • 01:00 Growing up Amish and getting her period at 10
    • 03:00 Being a twin and the comparison that started everything
    • 06:00 The night that changed how she saw herself
    • 08:00 How a disordered relationship with food developed without anyone naming it

    • 21:00 The drive to Sedona where Undiet You was born
    • 23:00 Why purpose always goes through hell first
    • 25:00 What it means to thrive instead of just survive
    • 27:00 The internal work that has to happen alongside food and fitness
    • 27:30 The Undiet You six-week program and how to join

    • 00:00 Why your forties can be your sexiest most vibrant chapter yet
    • 02:30 The Oura Ring: how to use data without obsessing over it
    • 05:00 Why pushing through illness is one of the worst things you can do for your body

    Apr 21 2026

    What if the reason you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure… isn’t because you don’t know what to do, but because you’ve been trained to stop listening to yourself?

    In this solo episode of The Lizzie Ens Show, Lizzie breaks down the real reason so many people feel disconnected from their decisions, constantly second-guessing, overthinking, and seeking validation from everyone except the one voice that matters most, their own.

    Through real client stories and powerful mindset shifts, this episode explores how fear, lack of trust, and outside noise keep you stuck in cycles of confusion, even when you already have the answers.

    Because the truth is, clarity doesn’t come from more opinions.

    • 02:00 How misinformation and fear distort your decisions
    • 05:00 Why most people are chronically undereducated, not undisciplined

    In this solo episode of The Lizzie Ens Show, Lizzie gets real about the moment so many people hit in their health, growth, or life journey, the point where progress feels slow, motivation fades, and the thought creeps in, “maybe I should just take a break.”

    But what if that “break” is actually the very thing keeping you stuck?

    This episode is a direct, honest conversation about why you keep starting over, what’s really happening beneath the surface when you feel like quitting, and how to finally break the cycle so you can move forward for good.

    Because the truth is, it’s not about needing more time. It’s about learning how to stay.

  • 135: When Speaking Up Costs You Everything. Leaving the Amish to Live in Truth | Elizabeth Miller
    Apr 7 2026

    What happens when the life you built no longer feels like the life you’re meant to live?

    In this episode, Lizzie sits down with Elizabeth Miller to share a story that is as confronting as it is freeing. From the outside, Elizabeth had everything, a thriving business, a family, a respected place in her Amish community. But internally, something didn’t feel right.

    That quiet knowing became impossible to ignore.

    What followed was a decision that would cost her nearly everything, her business, her home, her community, and her sense of identity. Because when Elizabeth chose to follow truth over approval, she was given an ultimatum. Stay and conform, or leave and lose it all.

    This conversation is about more than leaving a community. It’s about what it means to actually listen to yourself, to trust what you feel before you can explain it, and to choose a life that aligns, even when it comes with loss, fear, and uncertainty.

    Because sometimes the hardest decision is also the most honest one.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • What life inside the Amish community really looked like beyond the surface
    • The internal “knowing” that something wasn’t right, even when everything looked perfect
    • How early experiences of feeling unwanted shaped identity and decisions later in life
    • Why success on the outside doesn’t always equal alignment on the inside
    • The turning point that led Elizabeth to question everything
    • What happened when she began speaking up and living differently
    • The ultimatum that forced her to choose between staying or leaving
    • What it actually looks like to lose your business, home, and community overnight
    • The emotional weight of being misunderstood, rejected, and labeled as “wrong”
    • Why most people don’t leave environments that no longer align
    • The difference between living for approval vs living in truth
    • How to start reconnecting with who you are underneath roles and expectations

    We talk about:

    • 00:00 How Elizabeth and Lizzie connected
    • 01:30 Life inside the Amish community and early identity
    • 03:00 Feeling like something wasn’t right despite “having it all”
    • 05:00 Childhood experiences and the need to feel wanted
    • 07:30 The internal shift that started everything
    • 10:00 Faith, searching, and the desire for something deeper
    • 14:00 The moment everything began to change
    • 18:00 Speaking up and becoming “different” in the community
    • 22:00 The ultimatum, stay and conform or leave everything
    • 24:00 Losing their business, home, employees, and stability
    • 26:00 Living in a camper with four kids and starting over
    • 28:00 The tension in marriage and “can you just stop talking about it?”
    • 32:00 Being misunderstood and labeled as needing help
    • 36:00 Family dynamics and navigating rejection
    • 40:00 Why most people stay even when they know something is off
    • 44:00 Fear, identity, and breaking away from expectation
    • 48:00 Who are you without your titles, roles, or labels?
    • 50:00 The question that changes everything, what are you afraid of?

    Mar 31 2026

    Have you spent years keeping the peace, saying yes when you meant no, and putting everyone else first… only to feel invisible, exhausted, and completely disconnected from who you actually are?

    In this episode, Lizzie gets honest about her own journey out of people pleasing. She breaks down why so many people – especially women – struggle to speak up, why speaking up feels so threatening when you weren't taught how, and what it actually takes to use your voice in a way that earns you respect instead of just approval.

    • How to stop people pleasing without exploding in anger or resentment
    • Why "no" is a complete sentence and you don't owe anyone an explanation
    • How suppressing your voice shows up physically (thyroid, hormones, nervous system, and sleep)
    • How to identify your values before you set a single boundary
    • The onion method for reconnecting with who you actually are
    • How to recognize when you are allowing people to take advantage of you
    • Why your gut is always right and what happens when you ignore it
    • How to start using your voice with yourself first

    We talk about:

    • 00:00 Why speaking up feels so hard
    • 01:30 Growing up Amish: when your voice gets silenced early
    • 04:45 The difference between being liked and being respected
    • 06:00 Dying on the inside while holding everyone else together
    • 08:00 How to speak up effectively (anger never works)
    • 11:30 The onion around your heart
    • 16:00 Are they taking advantage of you, or are you letting them?
