WHO WANT MORE

“I am not okay with living a mediocre life and I constantly question why things are the way they are and what we can do to make them better.”

Liz Durham • Host of Being Different

MY STORY

Balancing kids, work, my husband (and the million other things that moms do) felt anything but balanced. 

In fact, it felt totally chaotic and I was sick of being the “frazzled” mom.  I knew I could not be alone, but why did I feel so alone? So, I decided to start the show to build a community of moms that could laugh, cry, vent, learn, and grow together.

I’m on a journey of embracing the way I want to live my life. Tune in for challenging conversations and powerful stories, while I encourage you to learn and make your own decisions.
