You can’t vision board your way out of burnout.
If your nervous system isn’t on board, nothing sticks—not the affirmations, not the manifesting, not even the journaling.
In this powerful episode of Midlife Strategies for Badass Women, Sue Willoughby sits down with Liz Potter, intuitive healer, medical medium, and nervous system specialist, to explore the deep connection between our body’s regulation and our ability to live fully aligned, expansive lives.
From psychic awakenings to spirit communication, from chronic illness to personal reinvention, Liz shares her fascinating journey and how she now helps women heal emotionally and physically by working with their nervous system—not against it.
🔮 Inside this episode:
✨ Bonus: Learn how Liz uses intuitive frequency reading to detect imbalances in the body—and why the “woo” and the science aren’t as far apart as you think.
🎧 If you’re a woman over 40 who feels stuck, scattered, or soul-tired… This episode is your wake-up call to regulate, reclaim, and rise.
