Ep 75: Finding Your Voice During Life’s Hardest Moments with Alisa Sieber
How do you find your voice when life has left you speechless? In this beautiful and heartfelt conversation, I talk with Alisa Sieber, trauma-informed leader, writer, and radical truth-teller, about what it means to speak truth in the midst of pain. Alisa shares how her journey through heartbreak and loss led her to create sacred spaces where women can be seen, heard, and held. We talk about the power of writing, the complexity of grief, and why your voice still matters even when it shakes.
This is a tender, honest reminder that beauty and sorrow can co-exist, and both deserve to be spoken.
Topics Covered:
- Alisa’s experience of grief and how it reshaped her relationship with her voice.
- Why sharing your story doesn’t require perfect clarity or healing.
- The role of writing in processing emotion and creating meaning.
- How witnessing others can help you feel seen in your own story.
- The impact of small moments and phrases that hold deep resonance.
- Letting your voice evolve and deepen through life’s seasons.
- The beauty of holding space for women in their raw, real experiences.
- Why it’s okay to show up messy, scared, and still speaking.
Here are some actions you can take, whether you have 5 minutes or 50:
- If you have 5 minutes, read this article from Motivation called “Using your struggles for personal growth.”
- If you have 50 minutes, I have a podcast episode from the Ed Mylett show called “Turning pain into purpose and protecting your peace with Trent Shelton”
