On this episode of The In-Between we welcome genealogist Nadia LaMantia. Nadia not only proved Elizabeth’s family is Slovak (not Czech) — she also uncovered a whole side of Liz’s dad’s family that was completely unknown.

We chat about what genealogists actually do (it's more than DNA): building trees, reconnecting with culture, helping citizenship claims, and solving real-life mysteries like family rumors, court cases, hidden branches, and medical clues from old documents. We also dig into how ancestors’ experiences — war, loss, migration — shape family dynamics and possible intergenerational trauma.

A fascinating, surprise-filled episode you won’t want to miss.

We're back with another episode from the vault! Please welcome Jas Jakes to the mic. Jas is a holistic trainer and yoga instructor here in Atlanta. She's also the founder of MVMT with Jas.

Even though this was recorded about a year ago, everything is still topical. Prepare for lots of laughter, girl talk included, dating lessons (you're going to want to take notes!), and how choosing yourself is always the answer. How do you ground yourself when you're in the middle of doing a hard thing? We unpack that in this episode.

Sit back and enjoy getting to hear how we took on Norway, one slip slap slop at a time. *No reindeer were harmed in the recording of this episode.*

A million in-between but I still got me. That’s what it feels like nowadays. The good thing about always having you, you can always find your way back to yourself. In this week’s episode, I’m catching you up on some of those million in-between’s.

From selling my house and living the nomad lifestyle, my whirlwind trip in Greece, navigating my life with dating, there is a LOT to catch up on. I talk about self love and how that’s helped me stay true to myself while I navigate all the change I keep facing. You know how I feel about self love. (Ha!)

It feels good to yap and be back. Cheers to the next chapter of The In-between. We’re really back this time. ;)

Let's catch up on what the last month has entailed! Taurus season was good to me - from celebrating my birthday in New York, being surrounded by some of the best people in the world, and reflecting on the THREE YEAR ANNIVERSARY of The In-Between - there's a lot to yap about and get deep. This episode covers what's been going on in my life, the next big major plot twist in the Movie of Liz, and a few hilarious life choices I've made recently, ahem, Invisalign *face palm*.

Nothing in my life is the same as it was a year ago. Liz a few years ago wouldn't be able to handle that... but Liz now? She's thriving. If there's anyone I'd bet on it's me because if you can't bet on yourself, who will? And I hope you can find that self belief here at The In-Between too. Now, let's chat!

Giggles, never ending to-do lists, and the chaos of home ownership - I kick things off all over the place. Rest assured, you'll be laughing with me (and might even be able to relate).

On top of the life updates and ridiculousness of my overwhelming to-do list, I also stress the importance of having "hype" people in your life. You never know when you're going to run into Ryan Seacrest, then your friends tries to give him your podcast Instagram handle. Did she succeed? You'll have to listen to find out. The main point is no matter where you are on your journey, you need people in your corner hyping you up, believing in you, and rooting you on because it's hard carrying everything yourself. Those special people deserve a callout because we'd be lost without ya.

You have the magic, and it's ok to let someone put it on spotlight.
