Get Elevated with Isabel Fransas

Not all friendships are meant to last forever, and that's actually okay. In this episode, I'm walking you through how to Marie Kondo your social circle - keeping the relationships that spark joy and letting go of the ones that just take up space. We're talking about the different types of friends we outgrow, how to handle friendship transitions gracefully, and why choosing quality over quantity in your relationships isn't selfish - it's necessary. If you've ever felt drained by certain friendships but didn't know how to address it, this one's for you.

This episode is for anyone who's ever been told they're 'too picky' or that their standards are 'unrealistic.' Whether you're single and feeling pressure to settle, or in a relationship where you're compromising too much of yourself, this conversation will help you distinguish between healthy boundaries and impossible expectations.We're talking about the difference between knowing your worth and being controlling, and between choosing wisely and closing yourself off to love. If you've ever felt guilty for having standards or wondered if you should lower your expectations to find love, this episode will give you permission to stop apologizing for knowing what you deserve. Because the right person won't make you feel like you're asking for too much.

Why do we give everyone else grace but hold ourselves to impossible standards? In this vulnerable episode, I'm processing in real-time and exploring what it really means to be the friend you need to yourself—not the Instagram version, the real one. We're talking about trusting your gut (science says women's intuition is right 68% of the time!), rebuilding trust with your body after trauma, and why that moment when I stretched a little longer at the gym was actually me learning to listen again. If you've been performing being okay instead of actually being okay, this one's for you. 💚

This episode is for anyone who's been told they need to forgive in order to heal. Whether you've felt pressured to forgive someone before you were ready, been told that holding onto anger is 'toxic,' or wondered if refusing to forgive makes you a bad person, this conversation will give you permission to honor your boundaries. We're talking about the difference between forgiving yourself and forgiving others, why 'forgive and forget' is harmful, and how you can completely heal and move on without ever giving someone absolution for what they did. If you've ever felt guilty for not forgiving, this episode will remind you that your forgiveness is not required for your healing.

This episode is for anyone who's been playing it safe and calling it 'being realistic.' Whether you're saying no to opportunities out of fear, staying in your comfort zone because it feels safer than risking failure, or waiting for the 'perfect time' that never comes, this conversation will challenge you to get honest about what's really holding you back. We're talking about the difference between protective fear and limiting fear, why one yes can change everything, and how your comfort zone might actually be the most uncomfortable place you could be. If you've ever talked yourself out of something before even trying, this episode is your permission slip to take the leap.

This episode is for anyone who's ever hesitated to give because they were worried about not having enough. Whether you've held back from helping someone because you thought you might need it later, struggled with scarcity mindset, or wondered if being generous makes you a pushover, this conversation will shift your perspective. We're talking about the difference between giving freely and being taken advantage of, why the universe rewards generosity, and how one hair tie at the gym taught me everything about abundance, karma, and community. If you've ever felt stuck in protecting what's yours instead of sharing what you have, this episode will remind you that giving is what opens you up to receiving.

This episode is for anyone who's tired of feeling behind on life's timeline. Whether you're approaching a milestone birthday with anxiety, comparing your life to everyone else's highlight reel, or forgetting to celebrate how far you've actually come, this conversation will shift your perspective. We're talking about the power of being present, why investing in friendships is investing in yourself, the importance of mental health days, and how to manifest from a place of belief instead of desperation.

This episode is for anyone who's ever felt lonely in a crowded room. Whether you have hundreds of social media followers but no one who really knows you, friends you can't be real with, or conversations that never go deeper than small talk, this conversation will help you understand why we're all starving for real connection. We're talking about the difference between being alone and being lonely, why surface-level relationships are leaving us empty, and how to build the deep, authentic connections your soul is craving. If you've ever felt like you're the only one struggling to find genuine friendship or wondered why having so many 'friends' still feels isolating, this episode will show you that you're not alone - and give you practical steps to build the connections that actually matter.

This episode is for anyone who's exhausted from constantly wondering if they did something wrong. Whether you're spiraling every time someone doesn't text back, assuming every mood shift is about you, or walking on eggshells trying to manage everyone's reactions, this conversation will help you understand why you make everything about you - and how to stop. We're talking about the difference between being sensitive and being self-centered, between caring about people and carrying their emotions, and why assuming you're the main character in everyone else's story is actually keeping you from real connection. If you've ever lost sleep replaying conversations or felt responsible for other people's happiness, this episode will give you permission to put down that exhausting burden.

After a life-changing trip to Dubai and some recent conversations that opened my eyes, I'm finally getting clear about what I've been missing in my relationships - deep, authentic connection. In this vulnerable episode, I'm sharing my therapist's revelation about my 'inner longing for connection,' why I'm done settling for surface-level relationships, and what it feels like to finally have the kind of meaningful conversations I've been craving. We're talking about the difference between intensity and intimacy, why I've become more intentional about everything in my life (including my recent decision to stop drinking), and how my move to California for my acting dreams has been part of this larger journey toward authenticity. If you've ever felt lonely in a crowd or wondered why small talk leaves you feeling empty, this one's for you.

We're told to 'be yourself' our whole lives, but what happens when being yourself becomes complicated?
