LOVE, LOSS & LOL: Finding the gifts in the midst of life’s sh*t with Lindsey Kane Leaverton

April 16, 2024 Nina Rodriguez / Guest: Lindsey Kane Leaverton Season 2 Episode 35

“Not everything happens for a reason, but sacred gifts MAY be found in everything that happens – even (and especially) in the most painful things.”  – Not Another Self-Help Book

That’s a quote from the newly published Amazon best-seller titled, "Not Another Self-Help Book: Finding Gifts in the Midst of Life's Sh*t," by guest, Lindsey Kane Leaverton,  who bravely shares her personal journey through grief, loss, and trauma, navigating life's challenges with resilience and humor.

A multifaceted individual, Lindsey serves as the director of wealth management at a boutique financial planning firm in Austin. 

She has seven recorded albums under her belt, is a self-taught guitarist and vocalist, a mother of three, an Amazon best-selling author, and has been featured on The Today Show, The New York Times, People Magazine, and TIME.

Beyond her professional pursuits, she has a strong sense of faith, a vibrant personality, and not-so-secretly dreams of pursuing a career as a stand-up comedian someday. 

In this candid episode, we delve into various pivotal moments that shaped Lindsey's life and personal story, including undergoing conversion therapy, reconciling her faith and lived reality within a conservative religious community, experiencing various traumas, losses, and finding the little miracles and hope in life's most challenging moments.
