    Why Capable Leaders Still Feel Like Frauds (And What To Do About It)

    Send a text You're capable. You've proven it. So why do you snap at your team before a big meeting, freeze on a decision you could make in your sleep, or procrastinate on the one thing that would actually move the needle? This episode breaks down what's actually happening — and it's not imposter syndrome. It's not a confidence problem either. It's your threat system running a program it learned in childhood, one that quietly equates your performance with your worth, your safety, your belonging. Liz walks through how that program gets wired in, why willpower and positive thinking can't override it once your amygdala is activated, and the three-step protocol to actually fix it at the root: separating your identity from your outcomes, retraining your nervous system through graduated exposure, and for Christians, grounding your worth in the theological realities of justification and adoption — so you stop performing for approval and start operating from rest. This is the work that changes how you show up when it matters most.

    The Pattern You Can't See Is Sabotaging You

    Send a text Are you aware that not understanding your patterns could be sabotaging your success? How can knowing your blindspots provide the leverage you need for career growth? Could understanding these aspects be the key to achieving high performance in your professional journey? Liz, an executive performance coach, explains that high performers often sabotage their growth due to pattherns they can't see. They build careers on blind spots that surface under pressure, not when things are stable, and that leaders frequently misdiagnose external symptoms instead of the underlying “pattern architecture.” He defines patterns as a trigger–interpretation–emotional/thought activation–behavior strategy loop, using revenue dips as an example where threat perception activates the amygdala, reduces prefrontal functioning, and drives overcontrol or panic. He distinguishes self-awareness from metacognition, contrasts behavior modification with identity repair (schema-level reconstruction), and connects biblical concepts (guarding the heart, renewing the mind, taking thoughts captive) to cognitive restructuring. The episode offers a diagnostic exercise to identify emotional spikes, interpretive meaning, coping strategies, and threatened needs, plus regulation tools like paced breathing and precise emotion labeling, while emphasizing that regulation creates access but identity repair creates lasting change. 00:00 Blind Spots Under Pressure 01:53 Pattern Loop Explained 02:52 Revenue Dip Example 04:05 Brain Under Threat 06:58 Fast Change Coaching 08:01 Metacognition and Meaning 10:02 Identity Repair vs Habits 12:54 Schemas and Core Beliefs 16:29 Why High Performers Struggle 18:57 Diagnostic Exercise Steps 21:10 Regulation Tools Window 24:08 Biblical and Clinical Renewal 29:27 Scaling Needs Stable Identity 31:19 Work With Me Closing Support the show Please leave me a review on Apple Podcast! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-liz-show/id1629109236 ***LET'S CONNECT:*** Sign up for Jesus Minute - https://elizabethlouis.com/email-sign-up/ Website: ElizabethLouis.com Facebook:facebook.com/iamlizlouis Tik Tok - tiktok.com/@iamlizlouis Instagram: ...

    Why Intimacy Fades Without Differentiation in Christian Marriage

    Send a text Most Christian marriages fail not from lack of love—but from lack of this. It's not communication. It's not date nights. It's not even prayer together. It's differentiation—and Jesus modeled it perfectly. In this episode, I'm exposing the hidden pattern destroying intimacy, passion, and honesty in Christian marriages. You'll learn why "becoming one flesh" doesn't mean losing yourself, how emotional fusion creates dead bedrooms and resentment, and what the Bible actually teaches about mature love. If you walk on eggshells, carry your spouse's emotions, or feel like roommates—this changes everything.

    17 Thinking Traps That Prove Jesus Is Your Tool, Not Your Savior

    Send a text In this episode, I walk through 17 thinking traps (cognitive distortions) Christians commonly fall into without realizing it — and explain how these patterns reveal what we are functionally trusting to save us. Using Hebrews 4:12 as the framework, this teaching applies Scripture surgically, separating soul from spirit to expose where Jesus has become the means to a savior rather than the Savior Himself. I explain: The difference between faith-building seasons and stripping seasonsWhy many believers love Jesus but still operate from misplaced trustHow trials reveal what we’re actually leaning onWhy thinking traps are not just psychological patterns, but spiritual indicatorsHow cognitive distortions show up specifically in Christian language and behaviorThe connection between anxiety, overthinking, and functional saviors like control, certainty, healing, or outcomesEach of the 17 thinking traps is defined, then applied to real Christian thought patterns — toward God, toward self, and toward others — to help identify where trust has subtly shifted away from Christ. This episode is not about condemnation or questioning salvation.  It’s about awareness, discipleship, and returning Jesus to the center of trust.

    Why Even Jesus Doesn't Stop the Ache (And What That Means for Your Faith)

    Send a text Why does nothing feel like enough? You did everything right. You chose well. You married a good man or woman. You built community. You sought God. You healed. You showed up. And yet… something still aches. Not because you're ungrateful. Not because you chose wrong. Not because your faith is weak. But because you were made for something this world can't give you. In this episode, I'm talking about the disillusionment no one prepares you for—the moment you realize that even Jesus doesn't make the longing stop the way you thought He would. Not because He's insufficient, but because you were made for unmediated communion with God, and right now, you're experiencing Him through mediation. This isn't cynicism. It's clarity. And if you've ever felt like something's missing even when everything looks right… this is for you. What we cover: Why knowing God makes the ache worse, not betterWhy we were made for unmediated communion with God (and what that means)The theology and psychology behind "eternity in the heart"The biblical truth about longing in Romans 8 and EcclesiastesHow to discern between healthy longing and relational dysfunctionWhat God actually gives (it's not what you think)What peace really looks like when the ache doesn't go awayThis episode is for you if: You feel guilty for not being "satisfied in Christ"You love your husband but still feel lonelyYou're questioning if something's wrong with youYou've been told "Jesus is enough" but it doesn't feel trueYou're not broken. You're human.

    Differentiation in Marriage: Why Love Without Self-Abandonment Is Biblical

    Send a text Most relationship breakdowns don’t happen because of conflict — they happen because one person collapses, overfunctions, or silences themselves to keep the relationship comfortable. That is a failure of differentiation. In this episode, we explore what differentiation actually is, why it is essential for healthy marriage and relationships, and how Scripture consistently addresses the dangers of self-abandonment, emotional imbalance, and false peace. You’ll learn: What differentiation means (biblically and psychologically)How emotional invalidation reveals poor differentiationWhy unrepaired conflict quietly erodes intimacyThe role of shame, pride, and avoidance in relational breakdownWhat Scripture says about responsibility, burden-bearing, and mutual submissionWhy differentiation creates holy tension — and why that tension is necessary for growthThis episode is not about blame, dominance, or emotional withdrawal. It’s about learning how to love without disappearing. If you’ve ever felt like honesty costs you connection, this conversation is for you. I didn't realize this didn't get released on the right date due to a tech issue.  Support the show Please leave me a review on Apple Podcast! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-liz-show/id1629109236 ***LET'S CONNECT:*** Sign up for Jesus Minute - https://elizabethlouis.com/email-sign-up/ Website: ElizabethLouis.com Facebook:facebook.com/iamlizlouis Tik Tok - tiktok.com/@iamlizlouis Instagram: ...
