Ep. 354 - When Life Shakes You: Finding Purpose and Power in the Hardest Seasons w/ Lindsey Schwartz

In this deeply moving episode, I sit down with Lindsey Schwartz, the visionary founder of Powerhouse Women, to explore the raw and transformative experiences of navigating trauma, grief, and growth. Lindsey shares how she faced severe personal challenges while still showing up for her community during the Powerhouse Women event — even while dissociating — and how a year has completely transformed her life.

Together, we dive into:

• The impact of severe trauma and what it’s like to keep going when life feels heavy.
• How the universe delivers what you need at the right time, even if it doesn’t feel like it in the moment.
• Grieving loss — whether it’s the loss of people, relationships, or versions of yourself.
• The power of solitude and stillness in the healing process.
• Why it’s essential to let go of people who aren’t aligned with your path, and how doing so can create space for aligned growth and opportunities.

This conversation is a testament to the strength and vulnerability it takes to heal, rebuild, and rise after adversity. Whether you’re navigating loss, stepping into a new season of life, or learning to trust the process, this episode is a must-listen.

Key Takeaways:

1. Healing Requires Time and Space: Solitude can be one of the most powerful tools for self-discovery and growth.
2. Growth Through Grief: It’s okay to feel and process loss; it’s part of evolving into your next level.
3. Aligned Relationships Are Key: Letting go of people not meant to journey with you is hard but necessary for stepping into your fullest potential.
