Have you ever felt like a new job, a new relationship, or a fresh start in a different city would finally make everything better? In this episode of The Mindset Fix, I share the personal reflection that hit me after reading a simple poem that, on the surface, is about a town—but to me, it meant so much more. We’ll unpack why changing your environment doesn’t always change your life, and I’ll walk you through three mindset shifts that can help you stop running and start growing—right where you are. Plus, I’ll share two short fictional stories that bring this lesson to life in a powerful and relatable way. If you’ve been waiting for something outside of you to change, this episode is the wake-up call you didn’t know you needed.

In this raw and deeply personal episode of The Mindset Fix, I’m sharing the truth I used to hide: I was a chronic people pleaser. I lived my life to make others comfortable—even if it meant losing myself in the process. I said yes when I meant no. I smiled when I wanted to cry. I chased approval instead of chasing joy.

I’ll talk about: How people-pleasing became my survival strategy The price I paid for pretending to be someone I wasn’t How to start choosing yourself, one honest decision at a time Why self-respect always begins with your “no” How to stop living for approval and start living in truth This episode is a love letter to the part of you that’s ready to stop hiding. To the you that’s ready to take off the mask and finally be free. Let this be your moment to come home to yourself. LIZ'S FICTION BOOKS: ⁠My thriller books⁠ ⁠Books in other genres
