Hi! I’m Liz and, ONCE UPON A TIME, I FELT REALLY LOST IN LIFE.
For 21 years, I struggled with self-love, self-worth, and confidence on all levels - friendships, relationships, family, work.
Yep, it took me until well into my 30s to master my own self-awareness enough to step boldly into my own power as a person and as a woman in today’s world.
And, when I did, my life changed in the most EPIC way.
The truth is…
I grew up desperate to fit in, got bullied for being myself so, I stopped being myself. Those experiences compounded on one another and primed me to believe that I’m not good enough. I hid behind cliques and used my popularity (or lack thereof) as a measure of my own worth.
It happened later in life too when I went into public relations - a notoriously toxic industry that, like high school, often pressures women to pit themselves against one another in order to be the best or the best paid.
I finally reached a point where I realized that this is not how you’re supposed to live life. We’re not here to please others, we’re here for one reason and one reason only: to feel good and to experience joy.
LOVING yourself will set you free.
It took me until I was 34 years old, married, with two toddlers and two successful businesses, finally rising above these wretched old limiting beliefs and thought patterns to realize the truth: loving yourself will set you free.
When I learned how to truly love myself and be proactive (instead of reactive) about all of my desires, my life everything changed for me in the best way. I found success, I made money, I experienced joy, fulfillment, and total alignment on auto-pilot.
This conscious self-awareness and deep inner work on myself began in 2019, after the loss of my first pregnancy, a time when I felt my lowest and most lost. It sent me on a downward spiral and, after months of battling depression, I reached a point where I knew, if I wanted to live the life of my wildest dreams, I had to change my mindset. All these years of thinking I was the problem or that I wasn’t good enough, I had to let go of if I wanted to be happy. I had to release all of that fuzzy stuff that I couldn’t control and focus only on what I could: my thoughts, my actions, my energy.
And, so, the real journey began: letting myself be me, letting myself be seen. Teaching myself how to go from invisible to vibrant in life.
I want that for you too!
