In Episode 2 of Unfiltered Life with Liz, Liz sits down with her best friend Heather for a raw, funny, no-filter conversation about what real life actually looks like for women in their 40s and 50s. From a friendship that started with Liz being convinced Heather couldn't stand her, to the late nights and missed moments that come with building a career, these two hold nothing back.

Welcome to the very first episode of Unfiltered Life with Liz — a podcast built on real, honest conversations about life, trauma, and what it actually takes to keep going.

In this raw and deeply personal introduction, Liz shares the story behind who she is and why she started this show. She opens up about growing up in a violent home, surviving childhood abuse, spending time in foster care with her younger sister, and the moment she and her sister made the brave decision to fight for a different life. She talks honestly about her lowest points — including struggling with suicidal thoughts at just 11 years old — and the people who kept her going.

Unfiltered Life with Liz is a podcast hosted by Liz Bragg, built around real talk, real growth, and the honest journey of figuring life out. Through open conversations and personal stories, Liz creates a space for connection, reflection, and the topics people often think about but don’t always say out loud.

From life lessons and relationships to growth, challenges, and everything in between, this podcast is about showing up authentically, embracing the imperfect moments, and finding meaning in the process.
