Description
Welcome to Goddess Got Goals — the podcast for women who are ready to stop shrinking, stop hustling, and start rising into their next chapter with strength, clarity, and sacred fire.
I’m your host, Lisa Barwise — Wellness Alchemist and Summoner of the Warrior Goddess SAGA — and I’m here to guide you through the powerful transformation that happens in midlife. This isn’t about surviving perimenopause or just “getting healthy.” It’s about rewriting your story, reclaiming your power, and rising as the Warrior Goddess you were always meant to be.
Each week, you’ll learn how to activate Wellness Alchemy — the integration of biology, psychology, and spirituality— to support your evolution from the inside out. Through bold conversations, practical strategies, ancient wisdom, and a bit of magical rebellion, we’ll explore:
🔥 Strength training and sacred self-care as tools for empowerment
🌙 Living in flow with your cycles, seasons, and feminine energy
💫 Overcoming people-pleasing, perfectionism, and burnout
🧙♀️ Building daily rituals, boundaries, and micro habits that create lasting change
Navigating perimenopause, aging, and identity shifts with confidence
⚔️ And stepping fully into your Warrior Goddess SAGA — the journey of strength, alchemy, growth, and awakening
You’ll also meet the four Warrior Goddess Archetypes — Seeker, Warrior, Guardian, and Alchemist — and discover how to work with your unique energy, challenges, and gifts on your personal quest.
Whether you’re here to build a stronger body, break free from old stories, reclaim your voice, or embody your most powerful self — this is your initiation.
Your reawakening. Your call to rise.
It’s time to stop settling and start summoning.
Because Goddess Got Goals.

Episode 175: Midlife Reawakening For too long, women have been told that midlife is a crisis. That menopause marks decline, invisibility, and the shrinking of our lives.
