I'm Speaking...with Elizabeth West Elizabeth West

Hi lovely! Thanks for listening! “What Others Think Of Me Is None Of My Business” — quote by Robert Kiyosaki. When I first heard this quote, I immediately fell in love with it. :) And everyone who I’ve mentioned it to also falls in love with it and starts to use it when they’re ‘in their head’. It’s interesting because none of us will really know what others truly think of us by ‘imagining’ what we think they ‘may’ think of us. But yet we always assume the worst (most times) on what others may think of us don’t we? I hope this quote helps you as much as it has helped me. Whenever I’m ‘in my head’ I think about this quote and it immediately helps to get me out of my head. ;) We’re our worst critics and we’ll always care what others think of us (or what we think they think of us) until we pass I’m sure but whenever you’re/we’re going down that ‘negative rabbit hole’ I suggest remembering this quote. :) I talk more about this on my newsletters or my ‘love letters’ (as I like to call them). ;) Wanna get my newsletters? Here’s the link to join the list! —> www.westelizabeth.com/newsletter. I hope you enjoy this episode and that it helps you in some way. Sincerely, Elizabeth

Hello lovely! Thanks for listening! Are you an ‘over achiever’? Do you reward yourself or give yourself a pat on the back for what you’ve accomplished? The most of us don’t. And if you’re a woman and/or a neurodivergent and have ADHD we’re always ‘on to the next’ aren’t we? I am rewarding myself right now but it’s not easy. For the most of my life I didn’t reward myself ever or even know where to start. (And it’s different for everyone.) Hint. It’s usually what fills our cups and is hand and hand with self-care. ;) I’m learning to reward myself more and give myself a pat on the back for what I *have accomplished instead of thinking “what’s next?”. ;) We’re all works in progress y’all and I’m sure I’ll/we’ll always have to remind myself/ourselves of this until I/we pass. But at least we can start small and start today. :) I hope this episode helps you in reminding yourself to also reward yourself for what you’ve accomplished and to relish more in giving yourself a pat on the back as well. :) I talk more about this on my newsletters or my ‘love letters’ (as I like to call them). ;) Wanna get my newsletters?

Hello lovely! Thanks for listening! This episode is short and sweet and is something that I needed to hear myself right now. :) From time to time I get impatient with not being my own boss already, being self-employed and being a Content Creator and Podcaster full-time. I have to remind myself that my day job is an Angel investor for my side hustle. It’s allowing me to not only have a roof over my head and food to eat but to also pay for things like a website and podcast tools and software for example. I hope this helps you if you’re also getting impatient with not being where you want to be already. ;-) I hope you enjoy this episode and that it has helped you in any way. Sincerely, Elizabeth

Hello lovely! Thanks for listening! In this episode I speak about how “it’s okay to change your mind”. I heard Oprah say this on her television show back in the day and I remember everyone in the audience gasping as was I. Even at my young age back then I didn’t know that I could change my mind! Crazy, right? Well we can. :) Recently I felt lost because I thought ‘this is it’ I can “kick-back” now when my instincts were like “oh no…you can’t stay here long, this is not the place for you”. After being shell shocked, confused and then a little depressed… I slept on it and I realized that “it is okay for me to change my mind.”. (You may hear some sounds in the background as I’m outside.) I’m focusing on the ‘done, not perfect’ approach. ;) I hope you enjoy this episode and that it helps you to realize the same…that “it’s okay to change your/our minds”. ;) Sincerely, Elizabeth

Hi lovely! Thanks for listening! In this episode I talk a lot about the ups and downs that I’ve been having recently and how sometimes I can be quick to think about ‘what I don’t have’ and ‘what I can’t do’ vs ‘what I do have’ and ‘what I can do’. I was starting to go down a ‘negative rabbit hole’ when I realized all that I have which is a lot! 1. My health 2. A Roof over my head 3. Food to eat 4. A computer 5. A cell phone. Boy did my mood change from going down a ‘negative rabbit hole’ to gratitude! I hope this episode helps you if you’re going through a ‘downward spiral’ of thoughts and/or that you catch yourself about to go through a ‘downward spiral’ of thoughts because we all have something or someone to be grateful for at all times don’t we? ;-) Sincerely, Elizabeth

Heyo! Thanks for listening! In this episode I speak about how if you’re an Empath and/or an HSP (highly sensitive person) that our nervous systems are more ‘sensitive’ and we get more ‘shocks’ to our nervous systems when we’re going through major life changes like (moving, getting a new job, getting married and/or having a baby). And with this said we get drained more and due to this we need to recharge even more and take even more self-care. The irony is that we (Empaths and HSP’s) usually tend to put ourselves last vs first during these major life changes. I just did this with a major life change recently. :-/ I also I speak about how ‘time pressures’ will drain us and how giving ourselves ‘wiggle room’ and more grace will help our nervous systems and us to take self-care and to recharge. I hope you enjoy this episode! Sincerely, Elizabeth
