In this episode of The Place of Permission, Liz Chandler shares an intimate exploration of how birth became a threshold that asked her to surrender not only to the process, but to the deeper layers of protection shaped across generations.

Through her journey of fertility challenges, pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum, Liz explores how the opening of life force in the body can bring both power and fear to the surface at the same time. As her daughter entered the world, so did the parts of her shaped by shame, control, and the need to stay safe.

She speaks candidly about the intensity of birth, the emotional complexity of family dynamics, and the often-unspoken realities of early motherhood; including, intrusive thoughts, isolation, and the pressure to hold it all together. But alongside this unraveling, something else opened.

As her body moved through birth and into postpartum, Liz experienced a deep reawakening of sensory awareness as an embodied connection to intuition and psychism that had once been natural to her in childhood, then disconnected, and now returned with intensity. This opening was not separate from the fear or the overwhelm, but intertwined with it, asking for deeper surrender and trust in self.

Rather than framing these experiences as something to overcome, Liz explores how they became an invitation to lay down inherited patterns of protection and meet herself and her intuitive knowing in a new way.

This episode is a reflection on surrender as a powerful, embodied process of allowing what has been held for generations to finally move.

In this raw and honest episode, Liz explores the ways shame, hypervigilance, and good girl conditioning shaped her relationship to sexuality, pleasure, and power. Through reflections on childhood trauma, intrusive thoughts, inherited family patterns, and her later reclamation through tantra, internal family systems, and embodied practice, she reveals how shame can disconnect us from our bodies and our life force.

This episode is a real conversation about what happens when pleasure and danger become intertwined, how silence and family shame get carried across generations, and what becomes possible when we begin to meet those tender places with honesty, curiosity, and compassion.

In this deeply personal episode of The Place of Permission, Liz shares the story of how the “very good girl” pattern formed in her life and what it has taken to unravel it.

Through memories of childhood rupture, silence, and emotional isolation, Liz reflects on how she learned early to read the emotional landscape of everyone around her while ignoring the signals of her own body. What began as a survival strategy slowly became a pattern of hypervigilance, over-giving, and shaping herself into what others needed in order to feel safe and loved.

In this episode, she explores how those patterns show up in adulthood, the ways anger can become an ally rather than something to suppress, and how practices like Gene Keys, Human Design, rage release, BDSM, and others have helped her reconnect with her own inner authority.

With honesty and compassion, Liz speaks about boundaries, authenticity, sexuality, family dynamics, and the courage it takes to stop outsourcing safety to others. At its heart, this conversation is about learning to trust the body again and discovering that real belonging begins when we stop abandoning ourselves.
