Summary

Hey guys, it’s Lisa Bilyeu and I’m so frikin’ excited about today’s episode of Women of Impact with one of my close homies! If you feel like you have been holding onto a dream, trying so damn hard to make it happen, but wondering if it might be time to dream a new dream – this episode is for you!! My girl Patrice Washington is BACK, and while she’s most known as “America’s Money Maven” and an absolute QUEEN when it comes to finances and money confidence, A LOT has changed since the last time she was on the show! We get into alllllll the details in the episode, but the short version is that after 19 years with her husband, she recognized her marriage wasn’t serving her anymore and decided to divorce him. Now divorced, dating, and in her 40s, Patrice is happier than ever because she made a different decision and did the work to pivot her life! As a result, she got her voice back, is living life on HER terms, and even has NEW vows that she keeps to HERSELF!! And in this episode, we are breaking down EXACTLY HOW she went from unhappy and romanticizing reality to radical honesty and doing the work to actually make a change to her situation!!! We also talk about: - The 5 beliefs that gave Patrice her voice back & how she PRACTICED speaking up for herself before she had the strength to do it in her marriage - How holding onto your identity can keep you trapped in your situation & how to reframe those beliefs that are keeping you stuck - Why asking yourself the hard questions is SO important, but why ACTING in accordance to your answers is EVEN MORE important So guys, consider this your alarm clock to frikin’ WAKE UP, STOP submitting to the circumstances of your life, and DO THE WORK to change your situation and find happiness again.
