The Optimist's Creed

Start Your Journey
You know that feeling when something finally clicks? You land in the right seat. Your team stops grinding and starts flowing. You see something in yourself you'd missed for years. That's Human Tetris — and it's what I do. I figure out what lights people up, what drains them, and then rearrange the pieces so everything fits better.
I'm Liz — Chief of Operations at Angel Studios, Gallup Certified Strengths Coach, and ICF-certified Professional Coach. I've spent my career doing this at every level: building teams, coaching leaders through hard seasons, and standing on stages reminding rooms full of people just how powerful they really are.
Radical Hope was born from a simple belief: even in the hardest seasons, we can choose to find the miracles. This isn't positive thinking — it's a fierce, intentional choice to see what God is doing, even when the view doesn't make sense yet.
Your team is showing up — but something's off. Morale is slipping, trust is thinning, and the people you can't afford to lose are running on fumes.
For when your people need to be steadied.
This isn't a motivational pep talk. It's a raw, honest conversation about what it means to stand firm when everything around you is shifting — and to find your true self in the ashes.
Your audience will walk away with:
For when your people need to be unlocked.
Every person on your team has a unique combination of talents — and most of them are only using a fraction of what they've got. Worse, the strengths they are using? Sometimes they're overusing them in ways that are costing the team without anyone realizing it.
This workshop helps your people see themselves clearly — what they do best, where they may drain others, and how to work together in a way that actually fits.
Your team will walk away with:
Liz is INCREDIBLE at what she does!!! Liz truly could help someone find the gold within them which could be a turning point for them. This is an incredible opportunity for anyone. I'm a hard nosed lawyer who doesn't recommend people lightly. This is an unreserved "please take this gift of an opportunity up" plea as it really could help someone.
— Lauren LivingstonLiz is fantastic! What I love about her is how real and honest she is about everything. She recently helped me with some things, and her advice, her approach, and her perspective were so eye-opening and calming to me. Liz understands the stresses of earning a living, parenting, school, teaching... all of the things we as people can get overwhelmed with. Her realness makes her so approachable and easy to talk to. I recommend Liz to anyone ❤️
— Tina FranzStrengths-based coaching that helps you lead from who you actually are.
Everyone has a combination of strengths that is unique to them. The problem isn't that you don't have them — it's that no one ever helped you see them clearly and put them to work.
As a Gallup Strengths Coach, I take a holistic approach that supports both your career and your life. Each area of happiness improves your ability to show up in another.
What coaching with me looks like:
You're holding more than most people see. The career, the kids, the spouse, the household, the community — and somehow you make it all look effortless.
But in a world that tells you everything has to be Pinterest perfect, here's the truth: you don't have to keep up, measure up, or show up as anyone other than you.
Because the strength you carry — your intuition, your empathy, your ability to hold all of it and still move forward — that is the power. And even the most powerful woman needs a place to set it all down and be filled back up.
The Radical Hope Workshop is a sacred space for women to come together, feel seen, feel heard, and be reminded of who they really are — divine daughters of God with more power than they know. It's a place to learn how to forgive, how to face the hard things, and how to walk out feeling replenished instead of running on empty.
