I first had the privilege of hearing Lizbeth speak through my capacity as a board member for the Abused Women's Aid in Crisis (AWAIC) shelter at a capital campaign kickoff event. I was incredibly moved both by her courage to speak about her past trauma and the obstacles she has had to overcome, and also by the sheer power of her words. I left that night in awe of her resilience. A couple of years later, I became involved in helping with an annual teen empowerment event aimed at providing teen girls with words of wisdom from local women leaders regarding such topics as overcoming obstacles, facing stereotypes, focusing on mental and physical health, etc. When tasked with finding a panel member to lead the breakout room to address domestic abuse/dating violence in tandem with resiliency and overcoming obstacles, it took but two seconds for Lizbeth to pop into my mind as a panelist that would be able to speak to the topics and connect with the girls in a truly impactful way. As one of our panelists, Lizbeth did exactly that. She is an incredible speaker, and the way she tells her stories makes the world a better place.
