Do you find yourself waiting for an apology, a compliment, or even a sign that your healing is being witnessed?
In this raw and tender episode, we explore the often invisible — yet incredibly powerful — force of validation and how it can quietly keep us stuck in pain.

From the early childhood roots of needing to be seen and soothed, to the ego’s endless loop of craving approval (especially after heartbreak), Elisabeth opens the door to a deeper conversation around truth, worthiness, and radical self-honesty.

If you’ve ever felt unseen, dismissed, or like your pain didn’t “count” unless someone else acknowledged it, this episode is for you.

You’ll learn:

• Why we crave external validation (and how it’s not your fault)

• How the ego uses validation to protect us — but also sabotage us

• The subtle ways validation-seeking keeps us stuck in our healing journey

• What it means to self-validate and reclaim your inner authority

• Practices to start validating yourself every single day

In this rather different episode, I get real about a sensitive but important topic: the tendency for women to generalize and hate men after divorce — and why that mindset, while understandable, doesn’t actually serve your healing, or theirs.

I talk about:

• Why anger and grief after betrayal are valid — but hate is not the path to freedom

• How generalizing “all men” keeps us stuck in pain, bitterness, and disconnection

• What it’s costing you emotionally, spiritually, and energetically to carry hate

• A deeper look into the masculine wound and why many men are emotionally unavailable (without excusing the harm they cause)

• How you can heal with integrity, reclaim your power, and move forward without carrying hate in your heart

You’ll leave this episode feeling seen, softened, and empowered to choose healing that truly sets you free.

Today we’re diving into a topic that feels so close to the heart - how to manifest love and happiness in your life after divorce. I've talked about this before but we're doing it again a little differently.

I know you want to attract love and happiness in your life, but this is not about attracting someone else. Let's start by attracting YOU! Become the source of the love and joy you crave and watch everything else fall into place. If you’re ready to feel good again—to feel whole, vibrant, and deeply fulfilled—this episode is for you.

Some of the highlights:

• Why self-love is the root of all manifestation.

• Daily self-love rituals like mirror work, affirmations, loving-kindness meditation.

• And make sure to check out the brand new Rising Sisterhood App which includes meditations specifically created for self-love and healing.

We are also rewriting the story of love

• Releasing the belief that love is limited or only comes from a partner.
• Manifesting from a place of wholeness vs. lack.

And.. calling in a new and higher vibration

• With practices that raise your frequency

• Having healthy boundaries and sacred standards

Below are some ways you can start doing this deep work whether it is coaching with me one on one, journaling in The Joy Journal, booking a retreat and definitely downloading the new app.

Today’s episode is all about turning one of life’s hardest experiences into one of your greatest sources of strength. I know it might not feel that way right now, but your pain holds incredible power. In this episode, I’ll show you how to shift from feeling broken to feeling brave, and how to use everything you’ve been through to rise even stronger.

Some of what I cover:

• Viewing pain as a portal to the future and to allowing in wisdom and light instead of a door slamming shut.
• I talk about the valuable lessons divorce teaches us like;
  • not negotiating with our self-worth,
  • having strong and healthy boundaries with everyone in our lives and,
  • taking steps to build resilience and strength within.

I want you to know you don’t have to figure it out alone. The NEW Rising Sisterhood App offers tools, meditations, and a community to support your growth every step of the way. And for deeper healing, my coaching programs and retreats are designed to help you rise from the ashes into your most empowered self. I would be honoured to walk this journey with you.

The conversation around physical intimacy in a marriage is generally one that is kept private. And then when the separation happens a whole new layer of shame, embarrassment and secrecy is added. I want to open that door a bit and shed some light on how closely connected physical intimacy is to emotional intimacy and how that affects a potential reconciliation and how the two connect with each other post separation.

This is my first time broaching this topic and I took it on the fly, so please bear with me. I know there is so much more to discuss here - and I will. This is one I would love to bring some experts in for or potentially have guests share their experiences.

Thank you for listening as always. It matters.

We need to overcome the conditioning of prioritizing everyone else's needs over our own. This does not make you a better person. It's time for women to learn that taking care of you is a priority and necessary for everyone.

Doing that during a hostile legal battle with your soon to be ex is absolutely a challenge, but again, necessary.

Talking about that today and wanting you to hear how worthy you are of love, kindness and a happy future.

I would love to help you with this so make sure to check out the various ways we can work together below.

Today we honor the sacred essence of womanhood, not just as a role we play in society, but as the force of creation, transformation, and resilience. International Women’s Day is not just about celebrating the achievements of women—it’s about reclaiming our voice, our power, and our place in the world.

We will talk about sovereignty and what that is:

• Emotional Freedom – not allowing others to dictate your worth or your healing.
• Spiritual Liberation – trusting yourself and your inner wisdom above external validation.
• Sacred Boundaries – saying yes to what serves you and no to what diminishes you.
• Radical Self-Acceptance – releasing shame, guilt, and conditioning that tells you who you "should" be.
