In Episode 10 of The Place of Permission, Liz Chandler shares the often unspoken realities of early postpartum life, revealing how becoming a mother dismantled her need for control and perfection as she gained a new perspective on what it means to be someone’s child while caring for her own.

Through stories of breastfeeding challenges, postpartum anxiety, intrusive thoughts, tongue tie releases, nervous system dysregulation, and the support that carried her through, Liz explores the profound grief and humility that accompany becoming someone entirely new.

Rather than offering a polished narrative of motherhood, this episode invites listeners into the messy, sacred work of surrender, where healing comes not through getting it right, but through learning to hold fear, trust, grief, and love all at once.

Whether you’re a parent or simply moving through a season where life refuses to follow your plans, this conversation offers permission to release perfection, embrace uncertainty, and discover the freedom that exists on the other side of control.
