Thank you so much, Coco.

Liz Svatek

First of all, I love you because my daughter's name's Coco.

Host

Oh, you're kidding.

Liz Svatek

Yes.

Liz Svatek

That is.

Liz Svatek

She is my dearest person, and so I love your name.

Liz Svatek

I was all excited.

Liz Svatek

And your last name?

Liz Svatek

My daughter's godfather is John Selman.

Liz Svatek

We call him Salmon.

Liz Svatek

So I literally saw your name.

Liz Svatek

I'm like, hello, do I know you like Coco Selman?

Liz Svatek

Those are my two favorite words.

Host

That's amazing.

Host

I wonder if we're somehow connected.

Host

We should do that, like, you know.

Liz Svatek

Oh, yes.

Liz Svatek

We're gonna have to do that.

Liz Svatek

Six degrees.

Host

I love it.

Host

So, as we always do at the beginning of the show, I always like to ask the question, what is one book written by a woman that has significantly influenced your life?

Liz Svatek

Well, I'm sure people have given you all the answers, right?

Liz Svatek

Brene Brown, Michelle Obama, all the names.

Liz Svatek

I'm sure I'm going to give you one.

Liz Svatek

I bet you haven't heard yet.

Liz Svatek

Great.

Liz Svatek

Ian la Van Zant.

Liz Svatek

One of her first books, I think I believe is called one day my soul just opened up.

Liz Svatek

And when I was in my twenties, I got this book, and I'd never seen a book that was actually kind of a workbook also, like, it was kind of a hybrid book, like a journal and a book at the same time.

Liz Svatek

And I, when I tell you, I poured into that book.

Liz Svatek

I got in, I jumped into the book.

Liz Svatek

I jumped into the book, and it just spoke to me, and I became a big iyanla fan.

Liz Svatek

And I really, that was sort of like, I had always loved personal growth, even as a kid.

Liz Svatek

I didn't know that at the time, but that what I was doing, I was always looking to better myself.

Liz Svatek

And that was a book that I felt like in my twenties, just like, was a little life raft.

Liz Svatek

It was a little life raft that in those rocky twenties where you're like, what is, what am I doing?

Liz Svatek

What's going on?

Liz Svatek

And I just, it was incredible.

Liz Svatek

It really introduced me to kind of soul work, which is what I'm very passionate about today.

Host

Liz, you know, you're not going to believe it, but I had the same experience in my twenties.

Host

I swear, I was looking, I'm, like, looking around because I think it's in my hallway, but I literally still have it.

Host

And it's, you know, this great book, and, and you open it up and it has the little play, the place got the little, and you make notes and stuff in it.

Liz Svatek

A little placeholder.

Liz Svatek

Yes.

Host

A purple ribbon.

Host

And I have such fun.

Host

I mean, every night I would snuggle into my bed, you know, and in my twenties, in my little apartment, and I would, like, reflect and do the little exercises.

Host

I feel like there was a morning and an afternoon or something.

Host

Or morning and an evening or something.

Liz Svatek

Yes, there was, like, a morning routine, and there was all these different little exercises you could do.

Liz Svatek

And by the way, I was in my little apartment.

Liz Svatek

Were you in New York?

Host

I was in New York.

Host

So we were probably like, I'm turning 50.

Host

I know where living.

Host

I would have been living at 96th and park at the time.

Liz Svatek

I was at 96, 95th, and I was in what they call Dormandy courts at that time.

Host

I know exactly what I mean.

Liz Svatek

I think it was like 91st and third or.

Liz Svatek

I don't know.

Liz Svatek

Or 95th.

Host

Yeah.

Host

We were less than a mile from each other.

Liz Svatek

We were like, hilarious, cocoa.

Host

We were probably on the 6th train together, going to work in the morning.

Liz Svatek

You're my new best friend, so just accept me and let me in.

Liz Svatek

Oh.

Host

So, everybody, you got to pick up this book.

Host

Whether whatever age you are, it is one day.

Host

My soul just opened up by in love.

Host

And Zant, I think, is how you say her name.

Host

And so, okay, Liz, tell us about warrior Women, Inc.

Host

And what you, who you serve, what you do.

Host

I mean, we got to understand right off the bat what is rapid transformational therapy.

Liz Svatek

Yes.

Liz Svatek

Oh, my God.

Liz Svatek

It's a game changer.

Liz Svatek

Well, I really.

Liz Svatek

I serve women who are over 40.

Liz Svatek

I really feel like I'm 54.

Liz Svatek

I really believe that the forties, the fifties and sixties, they're a really unique time because we go through so many transitions.

Liz Svatek

Like, maybe your marriage is ending.

Liz Svatek

Maybe you're leaving a job.

Liz Svatek

Maybe you're looking at legacy work.

Liz Svatek

Maybe you're.

Liz Svatek

Maybe your kids are now older, so they don't, you know, they're kind of moving on.

Liz Svatek

And you're in this unique and menopause.

Liz Svatek

I mean.

Liz Svatek

I mean, that's a whole thing right there.

Liz Svatek

So you're going through so many changes, and there's a tendency to kind of isolate yourself or kind of push through it or, you know, or just feel kind of sad about the whole thing.

Liz Svatek

There's a lot of grief that goes on that nobody talks about in that zone.

Liz Svatek

And I want to call women into, this is not a crisis.

Liz Svatek

This is a calling.

Liz Svatek

That little nudge you're getting from more, that little nudge you're getting, like, I want to leave a legacy.

Liz Svatek

I want to.

Liz Svatek

I want to do something bigger.

Liz Svatek

That is a calling.

Liz Svatek

And if you think there may be more for you, great news there is, because you wouldn't even be having the thought if there wasn't.

Liz Svatek

So I'm always leading women into their legacy work.

Liz Svatek

I'm helping them transform.

Liz Svatek

But you.

Liz Svatek

But this is what's interesting about legacy work.

Liz Svatek

You cannot think that your legacy will transform you.

Liz Svatek

You have to transform yourself first so you can discover your legacy.

Liz Svatek

You sometimes can't see it if you don't do the work of you first.

Liz Svatek

So that's kind of like the way I do it.

Liz Svatek

We transform you, and then we start looking at, what is this legacy going to be?

Liz Svatek

And one of the ways I transform women, and I have it in every single program that I do, and I also do it as a standalone thing, is rapid transformational therapy.

Liz Svatek

And I discovered this, and once I discovered this, I was like, I am certifying in this.

Liz Svatek

I am becoming a rap because I couldn't believe the results.

Liz Svatek

It is like taking five years of therapy and doing it in 190 minutes.

Liz Svatek

Session.

Host

Holy mackerel.

Host

Sign me up.

Liz Svatek

It's incredible.

Liz Svatek

And every woman that I've done it with, and listen, women come to me with all the things, right?

Liz Svatek

I feel invisible.

Liz Svatek

I feel like I don't know where I'm going in my life.

Liz Svatek

I still have confidence.

Liz Svatek

I have this insecurity.

Liz Svatek

I don't even know where it's coming from.

Liz Svatek

I feel like I have imposter syndrome.

Liz Svatek

Like, hugely successful women who are like, I am terrified.

Liz Svatek

I don't know what I'm doing.

Liz Svatek

We all have this, have these things.

Liz Svatek

And what it does is it really gives you an immediate, immediate result because it deals with your subconscious mind.

Liz Svatek

It's a mix of hypnotherapy and five years of traditional therapy where we go to the root, we go to the source, we figure out what it is, and then I re help you rewire it, and then you listen to a little personalized recording.

Liz Svatek

We have another coaching session to kind of bookend the whole thing.

Liz Svatek

And I am telling you, I just.

Liz Svatek

I just had a woman yesterday.

Liz Svatek

I'm telling you, this woman had the most, like, she was.

Liz Svatek

I've never seen someone so low.

Liz Svatek

She just was like, I can't leave my house.

Liz Svatek

I'm feeling so upset.

Liz Svatek

I don't know where my life is going.

Liz Svatek

She was just.

Liz Svatek

And she used to be very vivacious.

Liz Svatek

She just felt like she lost it all.

Liz Svatek

We did this session.

Liz Svatek

She opens her eyes after the session, and she looks five years younger.

Liz Svatek

It was like I took a piano off her chest.

Liz Svatek

It is really a game changer.

Host

I love that.

Host

And to be able to create a release of those blockages so you can just move forward, right?

Host

I mean, you know, and so much, so much of us, I feel like at this, the stage, you know, and our audience is founders, right?

Host

A lot of women who are out there, many of the people in our audience, the people that are listening, struggle because they've built something.

Host

And it's working in many ways, but it's also taxing and exhausting.

Host

And it's like, here we are.

Host

We built this thing, but now it's like a yemenite ball and chain.

Host

And also like, gee, I feel like I'm doing all of this, but it's not creating the prosperity or the joy in my life that I wished, and it's not what I imagined it would be, right?

Host

Or I'm still having to control everything, and I want to let it go, but how do I.

Host

Those are things that I commonly hear about as women are growing.

Host

And then there's those that are in places like, where I am, where, you know, business evolves.

Host

I've gone through, you know, a merger, took on partners, had to deal with having new partners.

Host

That was the challenge.

Host

And.

Host

And now I'm going through an exit.

Host

And so my identity, right, gets trapped up in all of our identities, right, we get trapped up in those things, and then we get stuck when our kids grow out of the house or we lose a marriage or, um.

Host

Or we.

Host

You know, the mandala of our business has been swept into beautifully, into the.

Host

Into the.

Host

Into the river, hopefully, in exchange for a little bit of prosperity.

Host

But.

Host

But it's still hard, right?

Host

Yes.

Host

Until.

Host

Until intel in walks Liz with rapid transformation therapy.

Liz Svatek

Yes.

Liz Svatek

And I also think this requires.

Liz Svatek

And you're so astute, because this is exactly what it is.

Liz Svatek

It is identity evolution.

Liz Svatek

And I teach neuro.

Liz Svatek

Identity evolution.

Liz Svatek

You can't out think yourself, right?

Liz Svatek

Like, we've all tried this.

Liz Svatek

Let me think my way out of the problem.

Liz Svatek

Let me.

Liz Svatek

Let me just ask any.

Liz Svatek

Let me ask by committee, let me ask everyone what they think, right?

Liz Svatek

That does not build our self trust, right.

Liz Svatek

What builds your self trust is when you can actually evolve yourself, coach yourself.

Liz Svatek

That's what I teach women to do.

Liz Svatek

I teach you how to coach yourself.

Liz Svatek

I give you the tools.

Liz Svatek

I show you how to evolve that identity so that instead of, like, being trapped by your past or all this crazy thinking that you have that's just drowning you, I teach you how to free yourself up so that when you start making the decisions and choices, they're coming from a place that's such a higher perspective that you're literally calling yourself into your future.

Liz Svatek

And I think that's what women really need right now.

Liz Svatek

Women do not need five years of therapy.

Liz Svatek

Women do not need someone telling them what to do.

Liz Svatek

Women need to know what, like, how do I access really, inside of me what I want?

Liz Svatek

How do I get into that, such deep self trust that I know, like, I know, like, I know my next move, right?

Liz Svatek

And so I teach women how to do that, because I think I don't want someone telling me what to do.

Liz Svatek

I'm a little rebel over here.

Liz Svatek

Don't tell me what to do.

Liz Svatek

In fact, tell me no and see what happens.

Liz Svatek

I'm going to do it anyway, right?

Liz Svatek

So I feel like this is what women need.

Liz Svatek

This is the new evolution of women.

Liz Svatek

We need to be able to kind of rewire some of that thinking, right?

Liz Svatek

We can't just out think this.

Liz Svatek

We got to rewire the thinking so we can evolve.

Host

I love it.

Host

So how does this work?

Host

How does this work?

Host

I mean, like, I mean, is there.

Host

Is there some tools or some offerings around on something I could do, for example, to feel.

Host

To feel really excited and empowered about my next stage of life?

Host

Like, is there a couple things that you could tell me to do?

Liz Svatek

Yeah.

Liz Svatek

I mean, first of all, meditation is huge.

Liz Svatek

And listen, before everybody starts rolling their eyes and saying, like, oh, that's, wow, Liz, what a new idea.

Liz Svatek

Before everyone starts to say, I don't have time to do that, I'm gonna roll my eyes because I don't want to do it.

Liz Svatek

Meditation is not what people think.

Liz Svatek

If you are not feeling completely transformed and elevated by meditation, then you're doing it wrong.

Liz Svatek

Yeah, that's just facts.

Liz Svatek

I used to try to make it like a checklist.

Liz Svatek

I'm gonna give my little five minutes.

Liz Svatek

I did my little ten minutes of meditation.

Liz Svatek

Checkity check, right?

Liz Svatek

We all know, oh, let me make my gratitude checklist.

Liz Svatek

Checkity check.

Liz Svatek

I did it, right.

Liz Svatek

Whenever we do things like a checklist, it doesn't work.

Liz Svatek

It doesn't.

Liz Svatek

It's.

Liz Svatek

Right.

Liz Svatek

It's does.

Host

Especially for women.

Host

Especially.

Host

We have to be embodied, right?

Host

We have to be embodied.

Liz Svatek

Yes.

Liz Svatek

So I teach meditation very differently, and I tell women, if you really.

Liz Svatek

If you do the meditation the way I call you into it, meditation is actually a vacation from yourself because you're over here in your current reality, right?

Liz Svatek

You're over here going, I have this problem, and I don't know.

Liz Svatek

I don't know what to do and where am I going?

Liz Svatek

And when you meditate in a deep way, when you have a guided meditation that can really take you somewhere, right, then you're not you anymore.

Liz Svatek

Kind of like you're in the unknown.

Liz Svatek

You're dancing in the unknown.

Liz Svatek

You're getting these divine downloads.

Liz Svatek

You're having thoughts, you're thinking about the future.

Liz Svatek

You're nothing focused on your problems.

Liz Svatek

Right.

Liz Svatek

So meditation is one of the tools, definitely, that I use for women.

Host

It sounds like guided meditation in particular.

Liz Svatek

Yes.

Liz Svatek

I used to be a fan.

Liz Svatek

And listen, I do also like just sitting quietly and just seeing what comes.

Liz Svatek

I like that.

Liz Svatek

But I feel like especially in the beginning, there's too many ruminating thoughts in there.

Liz Svatek

It just, it's too much.

Liz Svatek

Right.

Liz Svatek

So you almost somebody to say, I'm gonna walk you through this so you don't have yourself talk.

Liz Svatek

Right.

Liz Svatek

So I think in the beginning you need that guided meditation.

Liz Svatek

You can absolutely work up to sitting very quietly, being Deepak Chopra, and 2 hours later you're just in the yard.

Liz Svatek

Absolutely.

Liz Svatek

But in the beginning, I think we need that guide.

Host

And you also.

Host

I'm just like sort of flash forwarding a little bit.

Host

You also have a walking meditation.

Liz Svatek

I do.

Liz Svatek

Because I know you're going to walk anyway, Coco.

Host

Yeah.

Liz Svatek

This is how I'm pulling women in.

Liz Svatek

I'm like, you don't like meditation and you say you don't have time for it, but guess what?

Liz Svatek

You're going to walk anyway.

Liz Svatek

So you're just going to take the walking meditation with you.

Liz Svatek

And I literally did it as a walking transformation meditation.

Liz Svatek

So it's not just like you're walking and you're hearing something.

Liz Svatek

I literally have a little system I use where you actually work through whatever is kind of going on with you and it takes you out of yourself.

Liz Svatek

So you're going to walk anyway and you're going to give yourself a little transformation while you walk.

Host

I love it.

Host

I love it.

Host

I do believe that you and I, we're just getting to know each other.

Host

We figured out that we both know each other, maybe through entrepreneurs.

Host

And I love how these connections come forward.

Host

But you don't know.

Host

One of my previous businesses was called the Trust Leadership Institute.

Host

So I developed a whole toolkit around self trust using guided meditation.

Host

So this is all so, so, so on.

Host

And where I've always, my niche has always been business, but really, it's a reflection for me of self trust.

Host

It's a reflection of what is my higher self, you know, asking me, inviting me to do, how do I find a deeper connection to that and where does it guide me to go?

Host

And so I'm just, I'm loving this.

Host

And I believe you.

Host

And I'm not just saying I believe you.

Host

I actually did.

Liz Svatek

You know, it works.

Host

I know that it works.

Host

And I, I do think this is the, this is the, when we.

Host

I believe that the reason why the show is called the wisdom of women is because I do believe that when you impart your, bring forth your wisdom into everything you do, in particular, in business, it not only makes your life better, but it transforms your culture, your team, and it elevates society as a result.

Host

Because here you are, you create a little microcosm, and if you create a microcosm that's guided by wisdom, and you invoke for others to create wisdom and share wisdom in the world and be their best and feel safe to be their best, that means, and I've had this happen where employees then come back and say, I tried that exercise with, how do I support you when somebody's upset?

Host

Which is a really simple transformational tool where we accept people as they're making mistakes.

Host

And I tried that with my husband, and it changes the way we see the world.

Host

So you can, as a founder, when you use tools like this, not only will you find it for yourself, but it will, like, spread, like wire wildfire into your companies and your business grow.

Liz Svatek

Yes.

Liz Svatek

I mean, it's the ripple effect.

Liz Svatek

Yeah, I talk about this all the time, because women.

Liz Svatek

Women are not just like, oh, let me improve myself, and I'm good.

Liz Svatek

No, women are like, let me improve myself and take everyone I know with me.

Liz Svatek

Let me take my husband, I'm gonna take my kids with me.

Liz Svatek

That's why I love to work with women and heal women, because once they are healing and they're doing the work of them, and they're in this wisdom perspective, which is so amazing, because I have a vip mastermind group called the Wise Women Collective, where that is literally the whole thing.

Liz Svatek

I put women in a room together who have already gone through kind of, you know, my program and know all the tools and know all the things they've done, rapid transformational therapy.

Liz Svatek

And then they go into this little circle and share their wisdom.

Liz Svatek

And we were just meeting last night on a zoom.

Liz Svatek

These women, the things that come out of their mouths, they're so wise.

Liz Svatek

They have so much to share.

Liz Svatek

And when they.

Liz Svatek

When they hear themselves seen and heard and validated by another woman who's been on that journey.

Liz Svatek

Right.

Liz Svatek

Like, I have been where you are.

Liz Svatek

I know where you are.

Liz Svatek

I see you.

Liz Svatek

There is something powerful about that.

Liz Svatek

Sharing the wisdom in a trusted circle, a safe space where you can really, truly go very deep and talk about what you want to talk about.

Host

I couldn't agree more.

Host

And there's that.

Host

It's sort of like when you're in your life, I equated in business, where you go to all these networking events that are mostly men, especially if you're a successful business leader, then you go into these, you know, memberships where you have only those who have made a million dollars or more, blah, blah, blah.

Host

And you go in and it's almost all men, and it's.

Host

And it's fine, and it's good, and you can get a lot of value from it, but it always feels like it doesn't quite fit.

Host

And then, like, the reason I always feel like it's so important for women to.

Host

To come together is because when we do and we start to hear each other, we start to understand, remember ourselves.

Liz Svatek

Yes.

Host

Like, oh, my gosh.

Host

That is what the sound of a wise woman sounds like.

Liz Svatek

Yeah.

Liz Svatek

We're a mirror for each other, right?

Liz Svatek

Like, you and I on this podcast now.

Liz Svatek

Oh, my gosh.

Liz Svatek

That was my book, too.

Liz Svatek

I mean, that was so fun for me to know that you think of us in our little apartments, reading the same book in our twenties, like, right.

Liz Svatek

What a connection.

Liz Svatek

And I think that's what women want.

Liz Svatek

They want connection.

Liz Svatek

They want community.

Liz Svatek

They want that deep conversation.

Liz Svatek

We do not.

Liz Svatek

We do.

Liz Svatek

We're done with how's the weather?

Liz Svatek

We're done.

Liz Svatek

You hit 40 and some, I don't know, the filter goes away, and you're like, I got to talk to some people and talk about real things.

Liz Svatek

I cannot be having these surface y things.

Liz Svatek

And I feel like those networking events, they.

Liz Svatek

They're very surfacey.

Liz Svatek

They're very bro marketing.

Liz Svatek

You know, you're in there shaking the hand.

Liz Svatek

What do you do?

Liz Svatek

And women don't.

Host

This is how many leads I close and how many, you know, this is my blah, blah, blah, blah.

Liz Svatek

You know, women don't care about that.

Liz Svatek

Women are like, I want to know what you do for business, but I also want to know you.

Liz Svatek

I want to know you.

Host

Yeah, exactly.

Host

I want to know what makes your heart happy.

Host

I know.

Host

I want to know what, you know, lights you up and, you know, brings you joy.

Host

And I want to know how I can help and serve you, too.

Host

Right?

Host

Like, that's the other thing.

Host

We are designed to help each other.

Liz Svatek

Yes.

Host

So tell us more about.

Host

Let's see you.

Host

Have you talked a little about the soul?

Host

We talked a little bit about your transformational therapy.

Host

Have we talked about Soul blazer?

Host

Do you want to talk to us about what?

Host

So, what it means to be a soul blazer?

Liz Svatek

Yeah, I just taught a little class on this.

Liz Svatek

I periodically just will give a free class just because I'm always inviting new women in, and I want people to see kind of new technology and things I'm using because I'm always out there.

Liz Svatek

How do I transform.

Liz Svatek

How do I bring the result faster?

Liz Svatek

How do I transform women sooner so they can start working on their legacy?

Liz Svatek

That's literally what I'm.

Liz Svatek

I'm out there all the time trying all the things, looking at things, deciding what I'm going to bring in.

Liz Svatek

And one thing that I really started noticing was, you know, women really don't know about rapid transformational therapy.

Liz Svatek

So I did this little soul blazer class and I talked about, what has it been to be kind of a trailblazing woman, right?

Liz Svatek

A pioneer, a woman who's out there wanting to do it different.

Liz Svatek

She's the one in her family.

Liz Svatek

She's the one in her business.

Liz Svatek

She's making the changes.

Liz Svatek

She's the ripple effect.

Liz Svatek

That's her.

Liz Svatek

And what does it really take to lead from your soul, to have, like you said, soul success?

Liz Svatek

We are no longer interested in being successful if it's killing us.

Liz Svatek

We don't want to be successful and pay a price of our health.

Liz Svatek

No time with our families, having this, you know, ruminating thoughts up in the morning.

Liz Svatek

Oh, my God.

Liz Svatek

Let me check this email.

Liz Svatek

Oh, my God.

Liz Svatek

The client, like, the stress of it all.

Liz Svatek

We do not.

Liz Svatek

That is not success.

Liz Svatek

Women will be like, I will get paid less if I can have more peace.

Liz Svatek

But you don't even have to get paid less.

Liz Svatek

I want to show you how you can make more money.

Liz Svatek

Be more free, right?

Liz Svatek

I'm making more money than I've ever made in my life, and I'm working less.

Liz Svatek

There's a way to do that, right?

Liz Svatek

And tapping into that, to that kind of quantum success, that kind of soul led success.

Liz Svatek

So I did this whole class on it, and I was teaching them about self regulation and having a flexible nervous system.

Liz Svatek

And I showed them a little bit of RTT, and you should have seen that chat.

Liz Svatek

It was like, they were just so excited.

Liz Svatek

So.

Liz Svatek

And I love that because women.

Liz Svatek

Women are so smart.

Liz Svatek

You give them one tool, one perspective shift, and they never forget it.

Liz Svatek

And I gave them a perspective shift, and they all.

Liz Svatek

I got so many emails back, like that one sentence, that one sentence that changed my life.

Host

That's wonderful.

Host

And so what would be an example of, like, a perspective shift that we could integrate into our.

Host

Into our day?

Liz Svatek

Do you want to know the one I shared in soul blazer that blew up?

Host

Yes.

Liz Svatek

Okay, so I have an 18 year old son named Landon.

Liz Svatek

And he was born in.

Liz Svatek

I mean, when I tell you he came in in a blaze of glory.

Liz Svatek

That's how he came into the world.

Liz Svatek

He was an emergency c section he almost died.

Liz Svatek

He had a stroke.

Liz Svatek

He was supposed to be brain damaged.

Liz Svatek

He had damage to his right arm.

Liz Svatek

The.

Liz Svatek

I guess his umbilical cord got caught around his neck, like, three or four times, and he had put his arm up through it, got his arms stuck, so it created a series of blood clots.

Liz Svatek

So this kid has been through it, right?

Liz Svatek

He's had over 60 surgeries.

Liz Svatek

He has ADHD.

Liz Svatek

He's not brain damaged, praise the Lord.

Liz Svatek

But he has been through a lot.

Liz Svatek

He's been to three different high schools.

Liz Svatek

He's an out of the box learner.

Liz Svatek

He's very smart, but he doesn't learn like everybody.

Liz Svatek

So we've been through a lot with this kid, and for a long time, I found myself in an emotional addiction to worry.

Liz Svatek

And you can be in an emotional addiction like a regular addiction, like any other addiction, because anything you continue to do that has adverse effects is an addiction.

Liz Svatek

If you're doing something, you don't want to do it, and you keep doing it, even though it has adverse effects, that is an addiction.

Liz Svatek

So I was addicted to worry.

Liz Svatek

I didn't want to worry Coco.

Liz Svatek

I was like, can I stop this crazy train?

Liz Svatek

How do I get off this?

Liz Svatek

Right?

Liz Svatek

But I would find myself in this worry spiral.

Liz Svatek

It would keep me up at night.

Liz Svatek

It would wake me up in the morning.

Liz Svatek

And the worry was, what's going to happen to this kid?

Liz Svatek

What's going to happen to this kid?

Liz Svatek

Like, is he going to be okay in the world?

Liz Svatek

Is someone going to make fun?

Liz Svatek

His arm looks like a really bad burn.

Liz Svatek

It's shorter than the other arm.

Liz Svatek

Who's going to make fun of him today?

Liz Svatek

What's his self esteem going to be?

Liz Svatek

Will he find a nice woman or partner who appreciates him?

Liz Svatek

All the things?

Liz Svatek

One day I said, I need to shift this.

Liz Svatek

I need to shift this.

Liz Svatek

And I.

Liz Svatek

All of a sudden, it came to me that Landon is on his own divine journey.

Liz Svatek

He's on his own divine journey.

Liz Svatek

This kid is meant for more.

Liz Svatek

He did not come here just to play around.

Liz Svatek

You don't survive something like that and just become like any other person.

Liz Svatek

Right?

Liz Svatek

So that feeling of, Landon's on his own divine journey.

Liz Svatek

He's guided and supported and loved in this world.

Liz Svatek

When I told women that they lost their minds, they were like, oh, my God, this helps me reframe my sister, my aunt, my mother.

Liz Svatek

Even when you don't like that journey, even when that journey looks horrible to you, right?

Liz Svatek

That person is still on a path.

Liz Svatek

They are doing their spiritual growth homework.

Liz Svatek

They are evolving you may not like the pace of it, you may not like what it looks like, but they are on a divine journey.

Liz Svatek

And the minute I embraced that and listen, I had to practice at Coco, it wasn't like I just said it.

Liz Svatek

I had to live it.

Liz Svatek

I had to embody it.

Liz Svatek

I had to think about it, I had to write about it, I had to meditate on it.

Liz Svatek

But now I believe it.

Liz Svatek

And now.

Liz Svatek

And when I started to embrace that, it changed everything.

Liz Svatek

He came in the house, and I'm looking at him so differently, right?

Liz Svatek

I'm so much lighter and brighter with him, and he became lighter and brighter.

Host

He became.

Host

It transforms what your situations are, right?

Liz Svatek

Yes.

Liz Svatek

That's why it's so important for us to do the work of us, right?

Liz Svatek

Because it will affect your kids, coworkers, husband, partner, whatever, right?

Liz Svatek

It'll affect everyone.

Liz Svatek

But that divine journey idea, whoo.

Liz Svatek

That.

Liz Svatek

That did it for me.

Host

Right?

Host

And we all have those places that we're where we worry, where we're stuck, where we just think whatever it is can't be that it has to be different than it is.

Host

But guess what?

Host

It is.

Host

What it is.

Host

Liz, you probably don't know this about me.

Host

I have a stepdaughter, Amelia, who was born at 27 weeks, and she has very severe cerebral palsy as a result.

Host

And so alume, my healthcare company that I founded, was in her service.

Host

It provides around the clock medical care to medically fragile kids and adults.

Host

And so I 1000% understand.

Host

And it's been a journey with my husband, too, because I'm not the biological mother.

Host

I didn't go through what you went through or Amelia's mom went through in that moment of birth and the incredible trauma that it is.

Host

And yet I've always been able to see Amelia as she is nonverbal, requires complete, around the clock hair as having a incredibly clear sole purpose, like her presence and her ability to spread joy just by her smile is so clear.

Host

It's so clear to me that she doesn't need to be different than she is.

Host

Right?

Host

Of course.

Host

We want everything to unravel to, you know, I wouldn't, like, keep her from growing or keep her from progressing in any way that was possible for her.

Host

But she's perfect just the way she is, you know?

Host

And that's something we've taught into.

Host

This is, again, like, what you learn from an experience with Liz is something you can then take into your business, into your life and all these places.

Host

So at illume, we had a whole exercise where we looked at everybody's needs.

Host

And when you're thinking about the needs of a person who is non ambulatory, nonverbal.

Host

And it's really easy to sort of see what their basic needs are, but what are their needs for their needs for purpose and legacy and actualization and transcendence, because, right.

Host

And how can we give that to them?

Host

Right?

Liz Svatek

Look at it as a divine journey.

Liz Svatek

And I'm not here to change this.

Liz Svatek

I'm here to be in service of this divine journey.

Liz Svatek

Like, what.

Liz Svatek

What can make this right?

Liz Svatek

And how do I make it more divine?

Liz Svatek

How do I see it like that?

Liz Svatek

And how do I make it more divine for him, for her?

Liz Svatek

Right.

Liz Svatek

Because it is their own journey, right?

Liz Svatek

And some of this is they have to discover things, and they have to write like they're in that body, they're living that journey, right.

Liz Svatek

But sometimes I feel like it's us that are the ones that are tortured, right?

Liz Svatek

Like, he actually going around with that arm when he.

Liz Svatek

When he's a righty, by the way.

Liz Svatek

So his whole life, he's been spent, you know, shaking, doing everything with your left hand as a righty.

Liz Svatek

So you just imagine that, right?

Liz Svatek

He puts that right arm out there and shakes people's hands, and they're shaking this little kind of, like, smaller hand that's all scarred up.

Liz Svatek

And I'm thinking, every time he shakes someone's hand, he's changing somebody's life.

Host

Yes.

Liz Svatek

Right?

Liz Svatek

And the same.

Liz Svatek

Every time she smiles at somebody, she is changing someone's life.

Liz Svatek

Because whatever pity or sadness or whatever you think you're going to give this person, you're so wrong.

Liz Svatek

You're so wrong.

Liz Svatek

You're so blessed to be in the presence of the divine.

Liz Svatek

I mean, that just, like, chokes me up.

Host

It's so beautiful.

Host

It is.

Host

And it's exactly.

Host

It's what we're all seeking.

Host

And there it is.

Host

Right?

Liz Svatek

Thank you for sharing that with me.

Liz Svatek

Oh, my goodness.

Host

And you're sure?

Host

And your son, too?

Host

I mean, Landon.

Liz Svatek

Yeah.

Host

Yeah.

Host

Wonderful.

Liz Svatek

Okay, so now that we've.

Host

Where are we?

Liz Svatek

My God.

Host

So tell us now for our women founders out there, who.

Host

So let's just send them away with one final word of wisdom around what they can do to support their own journey, their own heart, their own feeling of okayness with their lives and themselves and the people in it.

Liz Svatek

Yeah.

Liz Svatek

I mean, I would say this, you know, we make everything mean something, right?

Liz Svatek

Like, we're just meaning makers.

Liz Svatek

Like, I run into you at the grocery store, you look away.

Liz Svatek

I'm like, why is she such a bitch.

Liz Svatek

Why is she ignoring.

Liz Svatek

Meanwhile, you don't have your glasses.

Liz Svatek

You can't see.

Liz Svatek

You didn't even know I was there, right?

Liz Svatek

We make stories up all the time.

Liz Svatek

We make stories up.

Liz Svatek

We make meaning of things.

Liz Svatek

Everything is inherently meaningless if you embrace the absolute meaningless of life, right?

Liz Svatek

Meaninglessness of life, right?

Liz Svatek

That is a.

Liz Svatek

That detachment from that meaning, the detachment from an outcome, because that is what ruminates us.

Liz Svatek

That is what sends us down the crazy highway, right?

Liz Svatek

That leads to the crazy mind loop.

Liz Svatek

When you can detach from that, you can just be a little curious, right?

Liz Svatek

So I will say this.

Liz Svatek

Start saying, isn't it interesting?

Liz Svatek

Isn't it?

Liz Svatek

Isn't it interesting?

Liz Svatek

I just went to the grocery store and made up a whole story about Coco.

Liz Svatek

Isn't that interesting that I'm making up a story?

Liz Svatek

Ask yourself, what discount from the judgment, right?

Liz Svatek

Of, like, why am I thinking this?

Liz Svatek

I don't know what I'm doing, blah, blah, blah.

Liz Svatek

Instead, ask yourself, isn't it interesting?

Liz Svatek

Isn't it interesting that I'm super pissed at my husband and he doesn't even know why?

Liz Svatek

I'm just expecting him to read my mind.

Liz Svatek

Isn't it interesting that I say I want to move forward in my legacy, and yet I'm not doing one diddly do thing about it, right?

Liz Svatek

Like, it's.

Liz Svatek

Isn't it interesting just releasing the judgment and getting curious about what you're doing.

Liz Svatek

It's going to bring a little self awareness to you.

Host

I love that.

Host

Isn't it interesting?

Host

I'm going to use that today.

Host

What is your legacy about?

Host

What do you think about when you think about your personal journey in legacy?

Liz Svatek

Yeah.

Liz Svatek

I mean, you know, I.

Liz Svatek

I think in the past, I thought legacy was like, well, what's my estate planning?

Liz Svatek

How much money am I gonna have?

Liz Svatek

You know, that's what I thought legacy was.

Liz Svatek

I did not really understand legacy until I moved into my legacy.

Liz Svatek

My legacy is I want to heal 1 million women.

Liz Svatek

I want to fill a stadium.

Liz Svatek

I want to be the Taylor swift of midlife.

Liz Svatek

I want to fill a stadium.

Liz Svatek

And I want you to have that same feeling you feel at a Taylor swift concept of concert.

Liz Svatek

I want you to bring your mother, your aunt, your niece, your everyone, your sister.

Liz Svatek

I want to gather women together, and I want to heal us in a giant format.

Liz Svatek

I want to do RTT and bring all those tools, easy little tools and perspective shifts, travel across the country and heal millions of women and create women that heal other people.

Liz Svatek

So that's my legacy.

Liz Svatek

I teach these beautiful classes, but not everybody can take my classes because I'm not target.

Liz Svatek

I'm a little bit more like a Neiman Marcus.

Liz Svatek

So my classes are very.

Liz Svatek

Because they're a lot of support and a lot of, you know, people, I spend a lot of time with these ladies.

Liz Svatek

But for the people that can't do the classes, can't be in my vip mastermind.

Liz Svatek

I want to give them something, and I want.

Liz Svatek

I'm going to write a book next year.

Liz Svatek

I'm going to do a TED talk next year.

Liz Svatek

And I really want to start reaching into more women.

Liz Svatek

I want to get into more communities.

Liz Svatek

I want to get out there, and I want to show women that you don't have to take five years of therapy.

Liz Svatek

You can transform yourself rapidly.

Liz Svatek

It can happen fast.

Liz Svatek

So that you can move into your legacy.

Host

I love it.

Host

I'm in.

Host

I want to try this rapid transformation therapy with you.

Host

I think that sounds super awesome.

Host

If somebody wants to do that.

Liz Svatek

Yes.

Host

How do they get in touch with me?

Liz Svatek

I can give you the link for that.

Liz Svatek

It's called the 30 day transformation.

Liz Svatek

That's what I call it where you do a session.

Liz Svatek

I give you this curated recording, which is like a hypnotic, not a recording to kind of wire it in.

Liz Svatek

And then we meet to have a little coaching session, one on one.

Liz Svatek

So it's a complete little 30 day transformation.

Liz Svatek

It is a life changer.

Liz Svatek

So I can give you that link.

Liz Svatek

So if people want to come and do that, or if you want to kind of talk about it and say, like, is this.

Liz Svatek

Do you think this would be good?

Liz Svatek

What do you think would be good?

Liz Svatek

We can talk about it.

Host

Awesome.

Host

That sounds great.

Host

And I know that you also have an empowered woman playbook.

Liz Svatek

I do.

Host

And what is that?

Host

And that's.

Host

That's a.

Host

That's a freebie.

Liz Svatek

That's a.

Liz Svatek

Let me tell, that's.

Liz Svatek

This is a hell of a freebie.

Liz Svatek

Everyone's like, why are you not charging for this?

Liz Svatek

I'm like, because, again, I want women to have it.

Liz Svatek

So I created a playbook, basically, how to survive your forties and fifties and sixties.

Liz Svatek

I created this because I wanted it, Coco.

Liz Svatek

I was like, where's my playbook?

Liz Svatek

Where's my rulebook for this age of life?

Liz Svatek

Nobody.

Liz Svatek

My mother never told me anything about menopause or changes and transitions after 40.

Liz Svatek

She never.

Liz Svatek

We never talked about it.

Liz Svatek

Yeah, nobody was talking about it.

Liz Svatek

So I created this playbook.

Liz Svatek

It's a six episode private podcast with a very juicy workbook, and it'll just kind of give you a good little step into the work of, like, this age group and, like, what we're really facing.

Liz Svatek

It's funny, it's fun because I do everything.

Liz Svatek

Humor and healing, that's what I do.

Liz Svatek

It's funny, it's fun, but also it's deep work.

Liz Svatek

So you'll love it.

Host

I think that sounds great.

Host

So down in the description below, you're going to be able to find a link to the empowered women playbook.

Host

You can also go to the website Lizzak, lizsvatek.com, and you'll see right there on the homepage is a free walking meditation.

Host

And we talked a little bit about walking meditation earlier and so you can get that, too.

Host

And that's another freebie.

Liz Svatek

Yes.

Host

So much generosity, so much wisdom.

Host

Liz, we're so grateful.

Host

Thank you very, very, very much.

Host

My heart feels open and ready to receive more goodness from the universe, and I can't wait to get to meet up with you.

Host

And we can compare notes on Ayanla and, you know, we can share about our kids, right.

Host

And what they're teaching us.

Host

And, you know, my husband, he actually had a, he was journaling on Amelia, and he came back to me one day and he had the insight that Amelia has a higher power and I'm not it.

Liz Svatek

Ooh, talk about detaching from an outcome.

Liz Svatek

Right, right.

Liz Svatek

Staying in the curiosity and wonder and not getting into the outcome and trying to control.

Liz Svatek

Right.

Liz Svatek

I mean, that is beautiful.

Host

Yeah.

Host

So this is what's available for everyone, right?

Host

Having these big shifts and moments of healing and lightness and empowerment.

Host

Right, to go out and slay dragons or, you know, paint the world whatever color you want.

Liz Svatek

Yeah.

Liz Svatek

I mean, that's holistic success, right?

Liz Svatek

Like, we are not going to be doing it the way we've done it for years.

Liz Svatek

We're not going to burn ourselves down and burn out and sacrifice ourselves.

Liz Svatek

We don't have to do that anymore.

Liz Svatek

That's the good news.

Host

That's the good news.

Host
