This week, I got to chat with my friend Liz Dekofsky. She lives in LA, works full-time in a customer-facing job, and runs the coolest little side business curating thrifted style bundles.

If you’ve ever walked into a thrift store and felt totally overwhelmed or just didn’t have the energy to dig through the racks, Liz gets it. That’s why she does the hunting for you, and her eye for finding great pieces is seriously next-level.

But this episode goes deeper than just clothes.

Liz recently got sober, and it’s been a huge turning point in her life. That decision gave her the clarity and confidence to stop hiding parts of herself and start doing more of what lights her up. We talk about what it’s like to balance a side hustle with a full-time job, how she deals with imposter syndrome (hint: it’s still there, but she doesn’t let it run the show), and how she’s learning to show up more fully as herself.

If you’ve been sitting on an idea, waiting for the perfect moment, or thinking you need to be “fully ready” before you start something, this episode is your permission slip to just go for it.

Starting messy is still starting. And Liz is proof that small steps can lead to big, beautiful changes.

Let’s get into it.
