Busy Living Sober "It's Bizzy"
Hosted by Elizabeth "Bizzy" Chance
Recovery isn’t just about stopping; it’s about starting.
Welcome to Busy Living Sober "It's Bizzy," the podcast where we move past the "shame" of the past and dive headfirst into the vibrant, messy, and beautiful reality of life in recovery. I’m your host, Elizabeth "Bizzy" Chance—recovery coach, speaker, and your biggest cheerleader in the journey to reclaim your power.
After years of my own journey, I realized that "getting sober" was only the beginning. The real magic happens when we learn how to stay busy living. This show is a weekly masterclass in resilience, featuring deep-dive conversations with world-renowned experts like Dr. Bob Schuchts, survivors like Azadeh Atzberger, and industry leaders who are rewriting the rules of wellness and spirituality.
On this show, we talk about it all:
- Navigating the "war within" and healing deep emotional wounds.
- Identifying toxic patterns and setting bulletproof boundaries.
- Integrating spirituality and psychology for a "whole-person" recovery.
- Transitioning from surviving to thriving in your career and relationships.
Whether you are 24 hours sober or 24 years in, this is your home for actionable wisdom, unfiltered truth, and the reminder that you don't have to do this alone.
It’s time to stop just "staying sober" and start Busy Living.

Episode 641 Why We Explode: Shame, Hair Disasters & Healing the Heart with Elizabeth “Bizzy” Chance
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In today’s solo episode, I’m sharing the real story behind my 47‑color hair disaster — and how it cracked open something much deeper inside me. What looked like frustration about my hair was actually old shame, old wounds, and old stories bubbling up in ways I didn’t expect.
I talk about the shame I’ve carried from my past, the “sins” I replay in my mind, and the Catholic guilt that shaped so much of my childhood. I open up about how those buried feelings come out sideways — yelling, snapping, overreacting, or melting down over something as simple as a bad color job.
I also share what’s been going on in my heart around my adult kids, the ache of powerlessness, and how anxiety moves through my body from my stomach to my heart. And then I bring it all back to faith, forgiveness, and FUN — including the joy I found reading The Wizard of Oz and reconnecting with that younger, lighter part of myself.
This episode is a reminder that we don’t have to carry yesterday into today. We can breathe, identify what’s really going on inside, and return to the light again and again.
In this episode, I talk about:
- Why shame leaks out sideways
- Catholic guilt, confession, and carrying old “sins”
- Powerlessness over adult children
- Anxiety in the body vs. the heart
- Faith, forgiveness, and letting God carry the weight
- Finding fun again — even with bad hair
- The Wizard of Oz and reconnecting with joy
If you’re feeling heavy, overwhelmed, or hard on yourself, this episode will help you breathe, soften, and remember you’re not alone.
