LizaJane Chronicles

I Need to Write!

I stopped blogging because I’ve got so much on my plate that I needed to remove something before the plate spilled all over my lap.

In the time I’ve officially been away I’m been off. Something has been missing. Is it blogging? Is it sharing a piece of myself from time to time? I share myself all the time with my small business ventures. Is that the same? (more…)

It is with a heavy but hopeful heart that I say goodbye to LizaJane Chronicles and hello to Luxe with Liza!

Beginning Monday, June 11th LizaJane Chronicles will merge with Luxe Lips & Leggings with Liza. (more…)

Donald Trump has been in office 1 year, 96 days, 21 hours and 42 minutes as I write this sentence. My heart and my sense of country is heavy with sadness and doubt.

I’ve been interested in politics since my senior year of high school. I had a teacher than really impressed upon me the importance of knowing your rights as a citizen of the USA. I have never felt as proud of my status as an American…

One month ago.

It’s been one month since 17 people lost their lives to yet one more school shooting.

Since 2012, 7000 students have lost their lives in school shootings. Let that sink in. That’s just five years. That’s a blink in time. 7000 lights have been snuffed out.

No progress to stop it has been made…until now.

Today, children all over the US participated in a 17 minute walk out. They have…

Have you tried LipSense?

Keep the changes coming!

On February 22nd I decided to take a leap. No, not off a bridge but into my future. I decided to become a distributor for SeneGence. There are a company founded in the United States that sells everything from LipSense to skincare.

Starting this side venture changed my life. I have this phenomenal support team who is there day and night to answer all my questions. They…

Have We Had #Enough Yet?

In a facebook group we were asked our opinion on the most recent shooting. The post used Columbine as an example and also reference bullying. When I responded, I had no idea that I would have so much to say. I tell you this to provide a preface for the post below:

Ok, so here are my thoughts and opinions on this topic.

I agree with previous comments, we’re learning or have learned that Columbine…

What’s LizaJane Listening To? #Audiodramas

The Bright Sessions

ars Paradoxia

The Big Loop

Basically AUDIODRAMAS! I’m obsessed! If you haven’t noticed this about me yet, I am someone who can become hyper focused on a genre, topic, hobby, etc when first introduced. I’m what you would call an “addictive personality”, it’s a strength and a weakness. (more…)

Nu You…By LizaJane

I am so happy January is over. I think I had 7 days off total and 2 of them were due to illness. I’m burnt out. I’m frazzled and I’m overworked. But hey, my check is bigger…thanks to me, we’ll see what happens in February.

I’m hoping in February that I do see an increase in income, I’ve actually joined a business in the hopes that I will make that reality. I’m not depending on the US government…

With the hustle and chaos that is the holiday season it’s easy to forget how this time of year affects us all, especially those with mental illness.

Year around people who suffer from mental illness struggle from day to day to hold it together, imagine what that’s like this time of year.

Those of us who don’t suffer from mental illness can get upset and overwhelmed, right? We fight traffic,…

I had an interesting conversation last night with a great friend. I first met this person over the summer, he invited me to guest host on his podcast. It was exactly what my anxiety needed to freak out! Why the heck would this professional want me on his show?!?! I was terrified, until the day we recorded. He made me feel so comfortable and accepted. That’s a huge deal for me. Since that time,…

My biggest issue is that all this was done behind closed doors, without reading it.

I also find it interesting that politicians can work so hard and through the night when it benefits them. When it causes worry and concern for the public, they usually have an extended weekend or are heading for a break.

Republicans found a way to pass tax reform http://www.cnn.com/2017/12/02/politics/how-senate-ta…

I was listening to Nick G, from The Dependent Independent, this morning and he really inspired me. He was talking about being grateful. More importantly, he was talking about the mundane, every day stuff, that we can and should be thankful for but sometimes feel ashamed for feeling grateful.

Confused yet?

For instance, I’m grateful for how confident I am becoming. Saying that out loud might seem…

Shaking with Fear, Sharing my Truth

I posted a https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FLizaJaneChronicles%2Fposts%2F745968405611725%3A0&width=500” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener”>picture earlier this week. It was of me 8 weeks post-partum and one of me as of Sunday, October 29, 2017. The difference to me is shocking. It might not be to others but they don’t really know what is most shocking to…

We the People, All people…

Why do I torture myself?

Why do I intentionally read about current events that I know will enrage me?

I’ll tell you why, because I’d rather be inform than be ignorant. I think many public officials should learn that lesson.

I feel like we’re being thrown so much sensationalism that we’re losing what truth is and used to be. We can no longer trust the words written and said because we can’t trust…

I wasn’t sure if I wanted to bring this up but the more I think about it the more I feel like I need to share it.

For just a little background into this story. I’ve talked before on my blog about my father and our lack of relationship. He made his choices early in my life. Meth was and is more important. Or as he likes to say, “He was born an asshole and will die and asshole.” When I was a kid…
