SUMMARY
What happens when a life that looks incredibly successful from the outside feels completely wrong on the inside? Liz Baitson, founder of High Net Connect, joins me for a gloriously honest and wonderfully wild conversation about breaking free from the “good girl” archetype, discovering the power of boundaries, embracing our shadow and learning to live in our own authenticity.
From investment banking and business highs and lows to relationships, spirituality, ancient Egypt, consciousness and her vision for House of AKH, Liz shares the experiences that have forced her to repeatedly shed old versions of herself and become more fully who she is.
And underneath it all is one simple, powerful message: you are not alone.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
• A successful life on the outside doesn’t necessarily mean we are thriving on the inside.
• People-pleasing, masking and constantly trying to be “good” can take us further and further away from our authentic selves.
• Learning to say a genuine, unequivocal “NO” can be one of the most liberating forms of self-respect.
• Sometimes we have to let an old version of ourselves fall away before something new can emerge.
• Our difficult experiences can become initiations rather than simply things that happen to us.
• Authentic relationships require honesty, clarity and integrity — including being honest about what we actually want.
• Liz explores the idea that awareness may be everywhere, while consciousness emerges through relationship and connection.
• Thriving isn’t about having a perfect life. It’s about being able to meet whatever comes and knowing, “I’ve got this.”
• Perhaps most importantly: whatever you are going through, you are not alone.
