EP 181 - From Chronic Illness to Clarity: The 3 Pillars That Built Amy’s Momentum

🌙Stop trying to be the same every day — design your life around what actually moves you forward.

John Suzuki talks with Amy Lenius — speaker, coach, and Director of Group Coaching at Next Level University — about redefining success through three foundational pillars: self-worth, self-belief, and consistency. Amy shares her journey from chronic illness to full recovery, how curiosity and holistic care transformed her life, and why understanding cyclical female energy (the “four seasons” of a month) changes productivity, relationships, and wellbeing.

Inside this conversation, you’ll learn:

1. The three pillars that create sustainable momentum: self-worth, self-belief, and consistency. 2. How Amy safely came off medications, rebuilt health holistically, and reclaimed her life. 3. Practical ways to leverage your monthly cycle for creativity, focus, and rest. 4. Why “small, unsexy fundamentals” over years beat quick fixes every time. 5. How to borrow belief and use mentoring to bridge gaps in confidence. 6. How to reorganize work and relationships around biological rhythm to reduce shame and increase empathy.

💡 Key Takeaways:

1. Small, consistent actions compounded over years produce real transformation. 2. Knowing your cyclical energy unlocks better scheduling for creative vs. administrative work. 3. Self-belief has three layers: possible, possible for me, and worth it — address all three. 4. Reframing identity from “sick” or “stuck” to “in progress” opens the door to change.
