I hit 200 on a scratcher.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:08)
Did the scratcher come to your house and hand you a check?

**Lisa Nichols** (0:10)
No.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:11)
How many scratchers did you hit to get that? I hit a button on carvana.com once. Okay, that's fair.

What up, my homie? This is your girl, Lisa Bilyeu. And today, man, do I have an episode for you. It was such a tear-jerker, guys, that when I tell you that half of this interview, I and my guests were in utter tears, then I'm actually understating it because man, did this hit home and I really think it's going to hit you guys just as much. Have you ever found yourself that you're just caught up in a life storm and you're left feeling just broken or lost, or you're actually questioning what your worth is, or perhaps you're putting everybody else at the front of the line, and by the time it gets to you, you've actually got no energy left to handle your own self-care. Now, so many of us women have been there, stuck in this freaking pattern of self-doubt and of course, yes, self-sacrifice. Well, my homie, you are in for an incredible treat today because today we're going to go deep and oh yes, I mean deep on how to rise from the fricking ashes and actually take your power back. And I don't mean that as a frilly way, I actually mean how you start to feel better about yourself, how you start to say no and put yourself at the front of the fricking line. And who better to guide us through that phenomenal heartfelt journey, my girl, Lisa Nichols. Now this woman has not only fought to actually reclaim her voice, but has turned her pain into utter fricking power. And she did it in her 40s and 50s, guys. She's sharing her jaw-dropping story of survival and transformation right here on this episode. And we're talking utterly raw and unfiltered. Now we talk about facing the darkest moment. If there's anyone that can actually make that empowering and motivating, it's Lisa Nichols. We're talking about breaking the toxic cycle of a relationship or someone else in your life, potentially a family member or a friend. And we're learning how on earth that we actually not freely love ourselves, but actually love ourselves so that we get to the point where we put in boundaries and demand better from the people around us. Now Lisa's also opening up about the struggles of losing herself and how she actually was able to rebuild her self-worth and now living her life on her terms in the way that serves her. Guys, by the end of this episode, you'll not only be all teared out and have an empty box of tissues, but you'll actually have the tools and the roadmap so that you can not just freaking go out there and do your thing, but you can go out there and crush your thing. And I can't believe I just said thing, but that is really how I feel right now. Us women committing to ourselves and saying yes to the things we actually care about and hell's no to the things that we don't. So guys, freaking buckle up because this conversation is fire. And so without further ado, let's dive in right now with a freaking powerhouse, my girl that I've known for almost 10 years. That's right, Lisa Nichols, right here on Women of Impact. Let's get after it.
A lot of us women, I find, ignore our gut intuition.
We end up dating the bad boy even though we know he's going to freaking break our heart.
We end up staying in that relationship that we, even when we see the red flags, we just choose to ignore them. Or we can do the opposite, where we end up leaving those bad relationships and swear off love for the rest of our lives.
