The Liz Moody Podcast

This episode is a radical reframe of what a good life actually is, and how we can all get there. If you feel stuck, it’s gonna unstick you. If you’re struggling with problems that feel insurmountable, this episode will offer solutions you haven’t heard anywhere else. 

I’m talking with Stanford professors Dave Evans and Bill Burnett. Their books have sold millions of copies around the world. They’ve helped us design our lives, design our work, and now they’re back to teach us how to infuse our lives with meaning, purpose and flow. 

We get into all of their expertise, from the workplace to relationships to how to get the most of your one human life in this episode. It’s practical and deeply philosophical. It made me cry both recording it and then again looking back on the edit. 

🎧 What you’ll learn:

• How to use the life design thinking framework to make any decision

• How to stop working on problems you can't solve and find the ones you actually can

• The "reframing ladder" technique to unstick yourself from any life problem

• The five mindsets that turn ordinary moments into a deeply alive life

• How to escape the exhaustion trap without changing your schedule

• Why Maslow got it wrong—and what actually sits at the top of the pyramid

We all have that one thing we're avoiding right now. Whether it's hitting the gym, starting that side hustle, or finally getting to bed at a reasonable hour—we keep putting it off even though we know it's exactly what we need to level up our lives. And trust me, I get it, Netflix and cozy blankets are calling my name too.

But here's the really exciting thing—I sat down with the absolutely brilliant Kati Morton (she's THE expert on making hard things easier, with a master's from Pepperdine University and an incredible way of breaking down complex psychology into doable steps). We dove deep into why our brains resist change so much and, more importantly, how to actually get ourselves to do those big, scary things that lead to massive transformation.

If you've ever felt stuck between knowing what you should do and actually doing it, this episode is going to be a game-changer. It's packed with those practical, science-backed strategies we love, but delivered in a way that feels like chatting with your smartest friend.

🎧 What you’ll learn:

• The shocking truth about comfort zones (and why "self-care" might actually be holding you back)

• Why waiting for motivation is literally the worst strategy - plus what actually works

• How perfectionism is sneakily sabotaging you (and what to do about it)

• The game-changing "overthinker to action-taker" framework

• My favorite cookie-based courage-building hack (yes, really)

• A 5-minute trick to completely transform your schedule
