Liz Life Guru
I’m Liz Reed, a licensed psychotherapist, author, and chef. I have a long history of working in addiction and the mental health field. From addiction facilities to psychiatric units and private practice. I’m also in recovery from alcohol for the past 20 years.
Liz Life Guru is a podcast designed to help people with mental health and addiction issues. This is an action-oriented show that helps the listener understand the dynamics of their issues. This is achieved through education, personal experience, and science-based evidence. Broken down in honest easy-to-understand language.
I feel that there is a method to “the madness”, and that a good laugh can cure many ills. There is hope for everyone with the proper support and guidance. I will help you to create a journey through life that is your own, one that you enjoy, not one you have to white knuckle through. Life should be ever evolving and interesting. Don’t stay stuck. You’ll be able to relate to the many stories and descriptions of how mental illness, trauma, and addiction shape who we are.
I’m here to make sense of the senseless. I’m a problem solver and a life changer. Join me for a unique look at what’s bugging you.

I quit drinking 23 years ago, so what have I learned? A lot. I went from a woman who was the ultimate party girl to sober as a judge in one fell swoop. This wasn’t as easy as it sounds. It took time, guidance, and patience. I had to learn how to have a fulfilling life without alcohol. I needed to figure out what kind of life I wanted and career. In this podcast we will chat about my life and yours or someone you love struggling with addiction. Tune in and sit down, life is about to get real.
