Starfish Diaries
The Starfish Diaries is a podcast hosted by Liz McKean; coach, consultant, yoga teacher, recovery & mental health advocate, and lover of metaphors.
Inspired by "The Starfish Story," you can expect to hear personal stories, insightful reflections, and gentle reminders that you are not doing it wrong. Your joy, your work, your healing, and your desire for something more matters.
This is an invitation to make your life a place you want to be. Tools to envision what that even looks like. And permission to want it!
A better world begins with people who believe it's possible. And I promise, my sweet Starfish, that it IS possible.

More on the art of asking for help
In this conversation, I explore what it really means to ask for help... the kind of ask that stretches your heart a little and asks you to trust yourself first. I talk about how my relationship with asking for help has evolved through recovery and self-discovery, and why it’s not just an act of reaching out, but an act of self-trust.
We’ll unpack the vulnerability that comes with needing support, the desperation that doesn't always leave room to be picky, and the quiet wisdom of learning which part of ourselves to listen to. This one’s about learning to discern what kind of help we need, who it’s safe to ask, and how to stay connected to our own inner compass along the way.
