If you've built a successful career but feel quietly trapped by it, this episode is your permission slip to pay attention to what's beneath the surface. Dr. Elizabeth Locey — former tenured French professor, department chair, and New York Times-cited scholar — shares how a single Akashic Records session cracked open her carefully constructed life and set her on a path of soul-aligned impact.
This episode speaks directly to high-achieving experts experiencing a career pivot, spiritual awakening, or the unsettling feeling that outward success isn't enough. Dr. Locey walks through the practical and spiritual steps she took to connect with her inner power, trust a radical life transition, and step into her identity as what the Records called a 'truth teller.'
If you're searching for how to reconnect with your purpose after burnout, how to trust a major career change, or what self-discovery actually looks like in practice — this honest, grounded conversation with Chuck Anderson delivers real insight without bypassing the hard parts.
Q&A SECTION:
Q: Why do high achievers feel unfulfilled even after reaching major career milestones?
A: Outward success can mask a misalignment between your role and your soul-level identity. Dr. Locey describes repeatedly blowing past ceilings in academia — tenure, NYT recognition, international leadership — and still feeling empty. Achievement without authentic purpose creates what she calls a 'life sentence,' not a life.
Q: What are Akashic Records and how can they help with a career transition?
A: The Akashic Records are a spiritual framework for accessing soul-level information about your identity and purpose. For Dr. Locey, one session surfaced a message — 'you are a truth teller' — that reoriented her entire sense of self and ultimately catalysed her decision to leave a tenured academic career within 20 months.
Q: How do you know when it's time to leave a successful career rather than just push through?
A: The signal is often cumulative: years of subtle misalignment, followed by a sharp moment of clarity. For Dr. Locey it was a New Year's Day after a blood moon eclipse — not a single crisis, but the final crack in a wall that had been weakening for years. Your body and inner life usually know before your logic does.
Q: What does connecting with your inner power actually look like in practice?
A: It starts with asking the right questions about yourself — not 'what should I do?' but 'who am I at a soul level?' Dr. Locey began with a clipboard of handwritten questions in a parked car, creating private space for honest inner inquiry. Stillness, journaling, and accessing tools like the Akashic Records were her entry points.
Q: Can spirituality and professional ambition coexist for impact-driven entrepreneurs?
A: Yes — and Dr. Locey argues they amplify each other. Impact without inner alignment produces burnout. But when your work is rooted in soul-level truth, the drive to create impact becomes sustainable and magnetic. Her post-academic work is entirely built on this integration.
Q: How do you handle the fear of walking away from a legacy career or identity?
A: Dr. Locey's tenure was a legacy position — both her parents had been French professors before her. Leaving it was a revolutionary act. She reframes the fear: what feels like loss is often the universe clearing space. The 20-month unravelling after her first Akashic Records session wasn't random — it was orchestrated alignment.
Q: What should I do if I feel blocked or stuck despite working hard toward my goals?
A: Stop adding more effort and start asking deeper questions. Blocks are often signals, not obstacles. Dr. Locey's approach is to look beneath the visible career or business layer and examine what the soul is actually asking for — often using tools like the Akashic Records, journaling, or working with a spiritual mentor who knows you well.

Speaker:Chuck Anderson here, your host.
Speaker:And this is the show where we serve big impact experts.
Speaker:And that would be you if you're on a mission to make a big positive impact with whatever service or product that you provide.
Speaker:And maybe you want to make a positive impact in people's lives, maybe your community, maybe even the world.
Speaker:Depending whatever the scope is, you're on a mission.
Speaker:And along that mission, sometimes things go so easy you can't even believe it.
Speaker:And other times you it's leaves you scratching your head going, What just happened?
Speaker:Or why is this happening again?
Speaker:Or why am I not further ahead than I should be?
Speaker:And there's all these questions that come up.
Speaker:And we're gonna tie dive teeth deep into that topic today.
Speaker:And I brought on a friend of mine who not only um speaks to that, but she can really help you to uh
Speaker:I guess got I don't know if unblocked is the word.
Speaker:We're gonna get into that, but uh really uh consider her to you consider her to be your secret weapon uh in terms of uh getting to that next level, getting achieving the results
Speaker:that you want.
Speaker:So Dr.
Speaker:Elizabeth Locey is with me here today.
Speaker:And uh Elizabeth, we've been wanting to have this conversation for a while.
Speaker:Um we've had other conversations, we just didn't record them, so here we are.
Speaker:It's true.
Speaker:Well, thank you so much, Chuck, for having me on.
Speaker:And I'm thrilled to be talking to your people.
Speaker:Big impact is absolutely my jam.
Speaker:That's what I live for, right?
Speaker:That it's um, you know, money is great, but impact is where the magic is, I think, right?
Speaker:So many of our mutual friends too are wired that way, where we don't want to just make money and we don't want to just be in business.
Speaker:We want to help people live happier, more fulfilling lives in whatever capacity that is.
Speaker:And and, you know, that's we're definitely on that same journey, doing different things to support that journey, but very aligned in that.
Speaker:I love it.
Speaker:Um, let's start with your story.
Speaker:Like, what's, you know, what how did it come to be that you're doing the work that you're doing?
Speaker:And um, and so
Speaker:and we'll we'll we'll use that as the launching.
Speaker:Okay, well, you know, my parents were both French professors.
Speaker:They were medievalist, medieval theater theater specialists.
Speaker:And so I learned French at age two when we moved to France, and that was a very transformative year for me.
Speaker:Um, and so when I was in college, I did an interdisciplinary studies program and people would ask, like, what well, so what are you gonna do with that?
Speaker:I'm like, anything but be a French professor.
Speaker:Fast forward.
Speaker:I was a French professor and I was chair of my department.
Speaker:I had a my scholarship was mentioned in the New York Times, and I was international head of membership of my professional organization.
Speaker:And it was it wasn't that it wasn't fulfilling, it kind of it was, but I just kept reaching the ceilings, blowing past them and still not being fulfilled.
Speaker:And within the context of the university, I did have lots of impact.
Speaker:And in terms of leadership as department chair, I I I really made the changes that my faculty and the students were asking for, so that was great.
Speaker:But then after after a while, I just was like, oh.
Speaker:It started to feel like a life sentence, the tenure.
Speaker:And
Speaker:Uh so along comes Akashic Records as a a a thing.
Speaker:My spiritual mentor, she had been my therapist.
Speaker:We we decided not to be therapist and client.
Speaker:Many years before we just went out for lunch on Fridays, and one Friday I came in, and before I could sit down, she grabbed me and shook me and said, Elizabeth, I've just had my
Speaker:Akashic Records channeled.
Speaker:You need to do that.
Speaker:This is for you.
Speaker:And I was like, okay, what?
Speaker:I had no idea what she was talking about.
Speaker:And, you know, my two-year-old daughter who and she's fine now, she's in college, um, honors college, um, but she she was born a whole trimester early.
Speaker:She weighed 740 grams at birth.
Speaker:So very, very, very petite, premature.
Speaker:And then at this moment, this exact moment, she had just um she was in a body cast because she had a spiral fracture of her femur.
Speaker:So
Speaker:It was like, no, no, I don't spend any money on me.
Speaker:And my friend said, No, you're gonna do this because this is this is for you.
Speaker:And she knew me super well.
Speaker:We had been very close, starting out as therapist and client, and then besties for over a decade.
Speaker:She's like, No, you have to do this.
Speaker:And I was like, Ah.
Speaker:But my first foray into the Akashic Records.
Speaker:I was sitting in my car because I knew as department chair people just would burst into my office, they wouldn't even knock.
Speaker:and I didn't want to do it at home because my husband would sometimes come home and also not knock, because it was his house too.
Speaker:And so I was in my car, cell phone against my ear, a clipboard full of questions propped against the steering wheel.
Speaker:And my first question was: who am I on a soul level?
Speaker:And the answer was so beautiful it made me cry, but it completely confused me because it hadn't according to me, it had no relation to my then life.
Speaker:The answer was, You are a truth teller with capital T's, and when you sing your truth song, imprisoned angels are set free.
Speaker:Wow.
Speaker:And I was like, oh, that's so beautiful.
Speaker:But also, like, are you talking about someone else?
Speaker:Because I'm a scholar.
Speaker:I'm department chair.
Speaker:I'm leading the French program here.
Speaker:And uh but it was so fascinating because, of course, as a scholar, I'm interested in collecting all the information there is available to collect anywhere, right?
Speaker:about any topic that interests me.
Speaker:Well.
Speaker:I am a topic that is interesting to me.
Speaker:So I I wanted to get back in.
Speaker:And the next time I was in, I asked questions about my daughter.
Speaker:I wanted to know like what was the sole purpose for her being born at a time that it really nearly killed both of us, right?
Speaker:Uh over and over again.
Speaker:And like what was that all about?
Speaker:And then asking about various other people in my life, my dogs, you know, all the all the things.
Speaker:And um
Speaker:Then at the end of that, about a week later, it's just my whole academic career started to unravel.
Speaker:And uh it says though there was a clarion call that went out to the universe, like, okay, she's hooked.
Speaker:We can start, we can start screen with her academic career now.
Speaker:And so within 20 months of that original in the car on a s on a cell phone truth teller message, I was quitting my tenured position.
Speaker:It was a tenured position that was kind of legacy because.
Speaker:Both of my parents had been French professors before me.
Speaker:Yeah, my my revolutionary act was to not be a medieval theater theatre theater, excuse me, theater specialist, but a twentieth century narrative specialist.
Speaker:Like that's a big difference.
Speaker:Anyway.
Speaker:So yeah, I I quit.
Speaker:I quit.
Speaker:a particular turning point where you knew it was time to quit, or was it a series of events what what what do you remember?
Speaker:Like what pushed you in that direction and was kind of like the turning point to what you're doing now?
Speaker:Well, that's a great question, Chuck, because it wasn't like a series of things, although it it was.
Speaker:It was a whole bunch of stuff for years.
Speaker:Um, but the the the declique, as we say in French, is was um this was New Year's Day, the previous night had been this massive blood loon blood moon lunar eclipse, supermoon, it
Speaker:was big.
Speaker:That was New Year's Eve, and this was New Year's Day.
Speaker:And I was quite upset.
Speaker:I had been doing lots of journaling because, you know, this was 2009 to 2010.
Speaker:And I'm like, okay, we're entering a new decade.
Speaker:Like, what do I want to hold on to from before?
Speaker:What do I want to let go of?
Speaker:And then earlier that day I had been, uh, we were staying at my sister's place in Utah, and uh
Speaker:I had been taking care of our daughter and her cousin, uh who is just nine months younger than she is, for all day, and it was afternoon, and I was still in my robe.
Speaker:I hadn't brushed my teeth or gotten dressed.
Speaker:I asked my husband if he would, you know, watch the kids for a minute and a half so that I could brush my teeth.
Speaker:And he said, sure.
Speaker:And I got back a minute and a half later and my eyes popped out of my head.
Speaker:I think I had smoke emerging from my ears.
Speaker:Because the kids were jumping on the couch, his back was turned, and it was her birthday coming up in just a week.
Speaker:And uh so she had tried on her new she had asked to try on her new birthday dress, and um it was ripped off and hanging off of her.
Speaker:This beautiful uh chiffon dress with um gold embroidered s tulips and butterflies.
Speaker:And I about lost it.
Speaker:I think I might have had a minor cardiac incident because I wanted to go out and take a walk, but I just didn't feel like I could breathe or move very much.
Speaker:So I went back into the guest room and was just journaling some more.
Speaker:And finally my husband came in and said, So what's what's the matter?
Speaker:I don't feel it would be constructive to say, you are you bleeping bleep hole.
Speaker:and so I I sat there with it and I said, and it was true, I don't think I really was excited about going back to work.
Speaker:And um
Speaker:He said
Speaker:Four words that changed my whole life, and as he said them, time slowed down.
Speaker:He said, Why don't you quit?
Speaker:And time slowed down.
Speaker:I watched those words come towards me.
Speaker:And when they hit my body, it rang like a gong.
Speaker:It was the unthinkable thought for a tenured person, especially a tenured person who'd been raised literally on a university campus by tenured parents, right?
Speaker:That w just no one in my world except for him could have said, Why don't you quit?
Speaker:Because he hadn't drunk the Kool-Aid.
Speaker:life, right?
Speaker:'Cause that's gonna yeah, that's the scholarly path.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:And so why don't you quit?
Speaker:And all of a sudden it was like, oh, not only could I quit, I'm gonna quit right now.
Speaker:And I started to turn around to like email my dean and he's like, wait, wait, wait, do you need to quit right now forever and never go back?
Speaker:Or could you keep teaching until the end of your contract in May?
Speaker:I was like, I can I can do it till May.
Speaker:This
Speaker:As long as I know it's not a life sentence, I'm fine.
Speaker:This I've been doing this my whole life.
Speaker:It's not a problem.
Speaker:The problem was, you know, the heaviness of like, ugh, do I have to do it forever and a day now?
Speaker:So ta.
Speaker:I didn't know what I was gonna do.
Speaker:I just knew I was quitting.
Speaker:And when people asked, I got back to campus and people, you know, the spread like wildfire, like Lucy's quitting.
Speaker:And you know, I I was the youngest ch female chair in the college and I had won all these awards and I I was kind of like the golden child.
Speaker:And suddenly they're like, You're quitting?
Speaker:And I'm like, Yes, yes I am.
Speaker:And they're like, What are you gonna do?
Speaker:And I said, I don't know.
Speaker:I have no idea.
Speaker:But I had already scheduled, as of the previous month, I'd already scheduled my last n my next Akashic record session, so I knew I was going to know.
Speaker:by the end of the month.
Speaker:And so that was enough.
Speaker:And uh when I was in that meeting with my soon-to-be mentor, and I had previously asked if it was Akashic Records, and I was in this like, please say yes, please say yes.
Speaker:This was 14 months before.
Speaker:Please say yes, please say yes, please say yes, but it wasn't a yes.
Speaker:It was Elizabeth, the rug is about to be pulled out from under you and you need to pay attention.
Speaker:And that was what made life so painful that made me want to quit.
Speaker:Or die.
Speaker:I mean it was that bad.
Speaker:But the quitting wasn't a a thought I could have.
Speaker:So it was just like I just wanna die.
Speaker:Someone please kill me now.
Speaker:And um
Speaker:I had I had stepped down as chair and people said, Oh, you know, that'll make everything better.
Speaker:It made it a whole lot worse, actually, because I had been able to work some magic, knowing what was about to happen.
Speaker:I could I could influence things around the edges.
Speaker:Now I was completely shut out, so I couldn't do anything.
Speaker:And uh so I did.
Speaker:I when I told people I was quitting, they were like, Wow, that is so courageous.
Speaker:I'm like, I I don't feel it's courageous at all.
Speaker:I feel like
Speaker:I'm sneaking out in the very nick of time, like I'm in a cave that's filling with water and the one exit is about to flood.
Speaker:So I have to go now.
Speaker:And they're like, Oh yeah.
Speaker:And and then when I said after I was clear that I was going to be doing Akashic Records channeling and crystal work, etc., and I told them it was like
Speaker:So funny.
Speaker:Most of them literally took a big step back as though it might be catching.
Speaker:As though it might be catching.
Speaker:But they also kind of stepped back in their eyes, like, oh man, do we call the men in the white coats now?
Speaker:Like they really thought I had lost it.
Speaker:And and possibly they were quite worried about that, for sure.
Speaker:And uh so so I I left at the end of that semester and I have never looked back.
Speaker:I mean
Speaker:Academia was a good gig for a while and then it just has been on a kind of a downward slide since a friend of mine who was Dean of Libraries at UC Santa Cruz and president of
Speaker:the whole libraries, all the university state university libraries and the UC system in California.
Speaker:She was like, Locy, you got out just in time.
Speaker:It's like the whole tenure system is corrupt.
Speaker:Everything is going wrong.
Speaker:Like you stepped out on your own terms at the right moment.
Speaker:I'm like, I had no idea.
Speaker:But so I I I Yep.
Speaker:Thank you.
Speaker:I now work with academic refugees like myself and other leaders who need to reinvent themselves and or who are.
Speaker:good with who they are, but they just want to be better at who they are and who want to make more impact, who want to make more money, who want to really
Speaker:Yeah, there are a lot of ways in which our world can be improved right now.
Speaker:And if you talk to different people, it might mean different things.
Speaker:But um, you know, we're we're to me it's very clear that we are at this inflection point in the history of the planet and humanity and human consciousness, and there's a lot of
Speaker:opportunity for people to step up and be stars.
Speaker:in their field and I I want to help them do that.
Speaker:And yeah, absolutely.
Speaker:What are you so I love the work that you do and who you're doing it with because I mean that's definitely our favorite types of people to work with.
Speaker:And what are you hearing from them?
Speaker:What what what are the challenges?
Speaker:I mean, probably similar to your I mean, I can relate so much to your story about how having that moment where you're doing this and then all of a sudden you're not doing that
Speaker:anymore.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:And so uh there's such parallels in my story, but what what are you hearing from people in terms of like where are they where are they struggling and and uh you know w how are they
Speaker:at that that that turning point in their careers or or life as well?
Speaker:Well, some of them know exactly what the pivot is, but they not quite sure how to do it cleanly, right?
Speaker:And keep their income or keep their house, right?
Speaker:Keep their family with a roof over their heads.
Speaker:Yes, very scary.
Speaker:Very, very scary.
Speaker:Um, I was willing to lose my house.
Speaker:In fact that w on the day that Thomas said, Why don't you quit?
Speaker:Um, what I was saying is I don't
Speaker:I honestly don't care.
Speaker:It was my house.
Speaker:He married into a a house owner.
Speaker:Um, and so I didn't care if I lost the house, I had to homeschool our young daughter and live in a van under a bridge.
Speaker:I did not want to work for those toxic people anymore.
Speaker:Because I was bringing it home.
Speaker:I did not want to be poisoning my beautiful four-year-old who had had honestly enough of
Speaker:a struggle at the beginning of her life weighing, you know, seven hundred and forty grams, one pound, ten ounces, right?
Speaker:It yeah.
Speaker:Uh she she was such a fighter, so brave, such a champion, and um, you know, meeting and exceeding all these challenges and still she she just kept fighting.
Speaker:I did not want to to be spewing toxicity on her or in her field.
Speaker:write her home.
Speaker:So I was like, yeah, I really cannot keep going at this university.
Speaker:And um so can you repeat your question, Chuck?
Speaker:I just want to make sure I'm following the right thread here.
Speaker:and I and and we're definitely going on that path.
Speaker:And that's what's what are you hearing from the people that are reaching out to you for help?
Speaker:What what's their struggle?
Speaker:Uh and and I think you said it already, like they already know what they want to do, but making that pivot can be scary.
Speaker:and so d do you are there also people who don't know what they want to do?
Speaker:Or maybe, you know, it's like, oh, I think it's this, but maybe it's not, maybe it's something else, like
Speaker:Mm.
Speaker:Yeah, what are you noticing there?
Speaker:Well, so I'm the truth teller, right?
Speaker:So and and I had twenty years of narrative analysis.
Speaker:So I'm really good at following threads, right?
Speaker:So and this is I like to say whenever I can that there are no lost steps.
Speaker:For a couple of years I was like, man, I spent twenty years in academia.
Speaker:Like that seems like a real, you know.
Speaker:a long way to go around to get to the same place.
Speaker:And but it wasn't really, because it was training and serious training for for what I do now, what I love to do now.
Speaker:And so a lot of people know that they don't most people know that they don't like where they are now.
Speaker:So let's just put that as a baseline.
Speaker:They're unhappy about something.
Speaker:They're not making the money they want.
Speaker:They're not making the impact in particular that they want.
Speaker:It's like I'm only touching 20 lives or 200 lives.
Speaker:I want to be touching 2,000, 2 million, right?
Speaker:So impact, that's that's the sweet spot for all my people is impact.
Speaker:And that's what I love to do.
Speaker:I I I love offering practical steps to get my clients where they want to go.
Speaker:and using a completely woo process, but um they're very practical steps.
Speaker:And uh so
Speaker:Woo can be fun.
Speaker:I mean, a lot you know, some people say woo, like there's this tremendous love for woo.
Speaker:And other people like, that's woo.
Speaker:Um, you know, woo is fun.
Speaker:Right?
Speaker:Exactly.
Speaker:Um, and you can embrace it, you can hate it, you can do whatever.
Speaker:It doesn't mean it's not there.
Speaker:So yeah.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:I mean, in my story I skipped over doing graduate work in Madison, Wisconsin, which is a very woo kind of town.
Speaker:And when I arrived in Madison, I didn't I I was there for the people that I wanted to work with, and I did get to work with them, but also, you know, I was living on the isthmus.
Speaker:It's it's very um there were indigenous peoples who were there for m millennia.
Speaker:And so the whole ground in and around Madison is imbued with this really intense spiritual energy.
Speaker:And here I was sort of with academic blinders on, like, no, you have to prove it, all the like document, document, document, you have to have evidence, put it in the footnotes and
Speaker:in the bibliography and all of these things.
Speaker:Um
Speaker:um And I I wrote about this in my forthcoming book.
Speaker:Um I it was like my first semester in Madison and I was marching up State Street and uh I just I just was going really fast.
Speaker:I would always wore cow cowboy boots and just would like cruising up the street because if I uh went too slowly, I would miss the
Speaker:the stops, the there would be stop you know, the pedestrians don't walk now.
Speaker:And it would be long.
Speaker:And so if I but if I cruised, I could make it every time.
Speaker:And so one time I was cruising every day, suddenly I like pivoted and went into this shop that I never was gonna go into.
Speaker:And I marched all the way to the back up to the mezzanine and to the back of the mezzanine.
Speaker:I'm like, in my head I'm like, what am I doing?
Speaker:Why am I doing this?
Speaker:It's very strange.
Speaker:I never wanted to come in here.
Speaker:And I marched to the back and there was a woman standing at the counter in the back and she's like, Can I help you?
Speaker:And said
Speaker:I don't know.
Speaker:And then I I looked to my left and there was this amethyst ring.
Speaker:I don't know if it's sitting right here.
Speaker:Um and I was like I saw that ring, I'm like, that is my ring.
Speaker:I need I need to have I'm an Aquarius anyway, so Amethyst is a birthstone, but it's Amethyst is all about divine connection and sovereignty and all these things.
Speaker:And and so I I put it on.
Speaker:I was like, wow, I need to have this.
Speaker:And I was calculating like how much I was on fellowship that year.
Speaker:How much money do I need for my bills?
Speaker:And how much money do I have in my accounts?
Speaker:And if it was less than 250, I could do it without, you know, going to a credit card.
Speaker:And the woman was like, well, it's normally $40, but it's 20% off today.
Speaker:And I'm like, sold.
Speaker:And she's like, can I wrap it up?
Speaker:I'm like, nope, put it on, marched out the door, got to class on time.
Speaker:It was really funny.
Speaker:But that I think was the beginning of my whole like spiritual journey in Madison.
Speaker:And then a couple years later, I was like, oh, it's a full moon.
Speaker:I think it would be fun to go out to the park.
Speaker:Uh I lived by a park and which was next to the lake.
Speaker:And on full moon nights you could hear the drum circles like echoing across the lake.
Speaker:It was really beautiful, and the moon was full and low, and I I took
Speaker:I took my blanket out with me.
Speaker:It was a blanket that had all the zodiac signs on it.
Speaker:Like everyone knew but me at this point that I was woo-marked.
Speaker:I was like, no, no, I'm what are you talking about?
Speaker:And so I I took I poured some wine into a like a recycled plastic bottle, because you're not supposed to have glass in the park.
Speaker:And I went out and I put my blanket and the I was gonna pour the wine into my solo cup, and suddenly
Speaker:I'm uh I'm I'm pouring libations to the four cardinal directions.
Speaker:And I'm like, whew you know, I I knew this from my history in my literature classes.
Speaker:I was like, what is going on?
Speaker:And so that scared me.
Speaker:It scared me a lot.
Speaker:And so I just packed everything up and ran home.
Speaker:But that also really marked me, because I my like fun time was uh you know, reading graphology or numerology or all these.
Speaker:you know, goddess stuff.
Speaker:But you know, in the during the day I was like focus, focus, focus on my topic.
Speaker:Anyway, that that's what took me to where I am where there was like this bifocal thing where I had woo over here just for fun and French studies over here, very serious.
Speaker:And then I gave up the very serious and I'm now one hundred percent woo.
Speaker:So
Speaker:Love it.
Speaker:Well, and before we run out of time, I definitely want to um give people a chance to connect with you because I think there's so many parallels to your journey.
Speaker:Uh, one that I can particularly relate to is that turning point where it's like you're you're on a path, but there's for me it was it it felt like that was a training ground for
Speaker:something else.
Speaker:I always had this overwhelming feeling like this is not what I meant to do.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:Working in a as an engineering assistant in a semiconductor factory, which is wearing a space suit every day.
Speaker:I'm like, no.
Speaker:And then um I it just felt like there's something else.
Speaker:And then there was something else.
Speaker:And next thing you know, I'm speaking on stages and doing groups and all that kind of stuff.
Speaker:So and I think a lot of our our audience and and the people that you work with, they they reach a point where they might feel like there's something else for them.
Speaker:Or something greater, or maybe I'm not making the big impact that I want to make.
Speaker:And so I'm influencing 20 people, but I'd like it to be two million.
Speaker:what is and and you working with you as the truth teller, okay?
Speaker:Cause and I'm not gonna try to explain the process, because look, that's the thing about processes like this, it's very individual and it's very right.
Speaker:And so, but what I'd like to touch on is the after.
Speaker:So
Speaker:You know, they might feel like this and they work with you.
Speaker:And what's what's the result?
Speaker:Like what what what new experience or new feeling can they have about the work that they do and maybe even results as well?
Speaker:Um, as a result of the work that you will do with them.
Speaker:Well, first comes surprise.
Speaker:Like, oh, I had no idea it could be that easy.
Speaker:And I'm like, Yeah.
Speaker:Easy's great.
Speaker:Easy is great.
Speaker:There's so much clarity available.
Speaker:There's so much ease available.
Speaker:Also, um
Speaker:The oftentimes, like early on, I really wanted people to have like the jaw-dropping revelation.
Speaker:But what I realized that was even more powerful was confirmation.
Speaker:That people who have hunches, and you know, I work mostly with people who are intuitive to some degree, right?
Speaker:Otherwise they won't find me.
Speaker:And they're intuitive to some degree, but they have held back on their dreams because it's like, uh.
Speaker:I I don't wanna risk everything on the opportunity of getting a beautiful new life.
Speaker:But uh, you know, when when they get confirmation that they were right on the money with their dreams, then it's beautiful.
Speaker:They're so happy and they you know most of my new leads come from word of mouth and uh and podcasts like this, but
Speaker:Yeah, word of mouth, because people are like, my gosh, you have to know Elizabeth.
Speaker:She and then it's different for everyone else, but like she helped me really connect with my child.
Speaker:She helped me say the right thing to my spouse or my boss.
Speaker:She helped me understand that I had been focusing so much on this side of my business, but really it was over here that the real juice and magic were.
Speaker:Or she helped me really uncover all these gifts that I'd been
Speaker:hiding from myself because I was afraid of my own power.
Speaker:And that's that's that's the really it's so it's so rewarding.
Speaker:So rewarding to do my work.
Speaker:Thank you so much, Chuck.
Speaker:heard all of the the above there in the work that we do from people.
Speaker:So um now I know have the go-to person to refer people to when when when we come across that, I can relate to so much of it because I mean, you just said being afraid of your own
Speaker:power.
Speaker:That's one that was true for me.
Speaker:and and from time to time still is.
Speaker:And so it just all depends on how how far we're pushing ourselves.
Speaker:And that's a thing about us as as a uh
Speaker:As a community of big impact experts, we are usually people who are pushing ourselves to be better at helping others.
Speaker:And that's what I really that's why I really love working with with people like you and the people that we serve and um and all of the things that we can do.
Speaker:And my message is: you know, you might be just one collaboration away from a breakthrough.
Speaker:You know, if you're not making the impact that you're making, you might just need to.
Speaker:talk to somebody or work with somebody to have that breakthrough.
Speaker:And I think, Elizabeth, that you're one of those people that they could connect with.
Speaker:And I want to give people a an opportunity to connect with you.
Speaker:So uh and and whatever we drop right now, I'll make sure the links are right beneath the video.
Speaker:So what's the next step in learning from you, connecting with you, uh, and and the next step on this journey, I guess.
Speaker:Well, the link will take you to um what I call my legendary radiance meditation.
Speaker:And I used to be a part of a a a Kriya meditation school.
Speaker:I adjusted one of their meditations, added crystals to it, and it really helps anytime you need some kind of energetic glow-up before you're say on a podcast or on a sales
Speaker:conversation or walking into a networking meeting or
Speaker:Going on a date or showing up for yourself, um, you can't you can do this glow-up.
Speaker:I the the video itself is uh longish because I'm explaining all of it, but the whole thing can be done in about 10 seconds.
Speaker:So and uh it's also the ideal intro material to the legendary self, which is what I've been doing for more and more people.
Speaker:And
Speaker:The legendary self is a life changer.
Speaker:It helps people jump timelines.
Speaker:Like you can save 20 years of your life by hopping into your legendary um identity.
Speaker:And uh it's it's wonderful.
Speaker:I I am there supporting people, but um, you know, Chuck, if you were to do your uh legendary self activation with me.
Speaker:I'm I'm just holding the space and prompting you with questions.
Speaker:It's all coming from you.
Speaker:And we're recording it so you can hear it again.
Speaker:I also have all these crystals that pick you, and I download your legendary self um codes into this crystal and I mail it wherever you are in the world.
Speaker:I'll mail it to you.
Speaker:Wow, that sounds amazing.
Speaker:Well, Elizabeth, thank you.
Speaker:This is that sounds good.
Speaker:And that sounds like a really cool uh next step.
Speaker:Yeah, connect with Elizabeth.
Speaker:The links are beneath this video.
Speaker:and and and connect with her.
Speaker:And if you feel like you're ready, you know, to connect with your uh legendary self, then um you know who to talk to.
Speaker:And I'm so glad that I've been able to share you with my audience and
Speaker:and if they didn't know uh of you before, I hope that they do now.
Speaker:And I hope that they take the next step in connecting with you and and and and you help them on their journey to connect with whether it's whatever is next or whatever whatever
Speaker:it is, right?
Speaker:And there's so many things you can help them with.
Speaker:so thank you.
Speaker:Uh and I want to ask you before we sign off, if you have any
Speaker:Final words of wisdom or advice or a favorite quote or anything that would you know, that you wanna leave our audience with here today.
Speaker:Oh my goodness.
Speaker:you know
Speaker:What's true is that
Speaker:So much of what we are, what's reflected back to us by the world is illusion.
Speaker:And so if you can find the way through the funhouse mirror map that we're all walking along, um path, uh, and see a true reflection of yourself, everyone is unstoppable if they
Speaker:can connect.
Speaker:to that truth about themselves.
Speaker:And it doesn't have to be through me.
Speaker:It can be through whatever, whatever resonates for you, but I hope everyone finds that, especially if you're looking to make a big impact in the world.
Speaker:Because that's how to do it.
Speaker:Amazing.
Speaker:Beautiful words to end this episode by Elizabeth.
Speaker:Thank you.
Speaker:I and I love that.
Speaker:Everyone is unstoppable.
Speaker:Everyone is unstoppable.
Speaker:And and you know, to our audience, thank you for being here.
Speaker:And if you're still listening to my voice, that means this episode resonated with you.
Speaker:And uh I sincerely uh not only hope that you make the big impact that you want, I can't wait to see it.
Speaker:The world is in a place where we need your gifts, we need the contribution that you bring to making that big positive impact in the lives of others, your community, possibly even
Speaker:the world, size and scope, whatever it is that you want to do, but contribute in the way that you can.
Speaker:And I'll leave you with this: that there's no problem too big to be overcome.
Speaker:You might be one collaboration away from a big breakthrough.
Speaker:And perhaps Elizabeth is that person to collaborate with.
Speaker:And I've made it easy to connect with her.
Speaker:with all of the links right beneath this video.
Speaker:And uh you I wanna remind you that your journey is worth it and and you are the one to be doing what it is that you're doing.
Speaker:Uh the only way to fail is to quit.
Speaker:So keep moving forward and we will see you on the next one.
Speaker:Thank you.
Speaker:Okay.
Speaker:Um
