Today With Elizabeth Earnshaw: Today on The Inner Edit I am joined by Elizabeth Earnshaw, LMFT, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and trusted relationship teacher. She is also a business owner, an author, a podcast segment host, and a content creator…you might know her as @lizlistens. Liz is one of the original Instagram therapists, but as the platform and algorithms have changed, so has her mindset about how she uses the space. Listen now to hear how Liz remains true to herself, trustworthy to her clients, and ethical in her career as a therapist while sharing her message online. Pick It Apart [2:33] Elizabeth shares why she decided to start her Instagram page and its aim of introducing therapy to people who might not realize what it is or how it can help. [8:05] Elizabeth and Christie discuss how Instagram has changed, along with how (and why) Elizabeth continues to use the platform in ways that align with her values. [18:24] Christie has an AHA moment, realizing that Instagram began to lose its appeal for her when it became something she “should” do. [25:45] Christie asks Elizabeth her thoughts on the pressure put on creators with large platforms to take a stance on every issue in the world. [32:55] Elizabeth explains how taking public stances as a therapist can limit what her clients feel comfortable sharing. [40:51] Elizabeth speaks about taking care of herself and her nervous system responses to negative comments on social media by setting boundaries. [41:33] Christie asks Tomi about how she responds to current events with her audience. Christie Rocha's and Elizabeth Earnshaw's Ah-Ha Moments “For years, I have always enjoyed [Instagram]. I've always liked it. And I think when it shifted to a ‘you should do this’ is when it starts feeling like ‘ugh’.” – Christie Rocha “Once it became the obligation to say things a specific way…that obligation took the joy away…I'm only going to [post] now when I feel like it's something I really want to say or I feel confident about it, and it's aligned with what feels good. And I'm really trying not to look at metrics.” – Elizabeth Earnshaw   “[As a therapist], any [public] stance that you take can be read by your client…and that can limit the way they talk to you.” – Elizabeth Earnshaw   “It's much more powerful to talk about what you believe instead of what you don't believe.” – Elizabeth Earnshaw More About Elizabeth Earnshaw Elizabeth Earnshaw is a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, Certified Gottman Therapist, Clinical Fellow of the AAMFT, and the author of I Want This To Work: An Inclusive Guide to Navigating the Most Difficult Relationship Issues We Face in The Modern Age".

210: Chelsea Connors: Transforming Creative Ruts: The Breathwork Strategy for Digital Creators

Today With Chelsea Connors: Today on The Inner Edit I have on high-performance coach, former psychotherapist, and certified breathwork facilitator, Chelsea Connors. Breathwork is a growing outlet for self-care and I don’t know about you, but I’m not too familiar with it. Chelsea shares what breathwork is, practicing it tangibly, and its benefits. If you have ever been in a content block, you’ll appreciate this mindful technique to dig you out. Pick It Apart [2:35] Chelsea enjoys the creative process of social platforms, and she explains why. [8:20] Chelsea talks about the support system that helps her when she’s feeling a lull in her work.

[35:08] Chelsea defines a certified breathwork instructor. [36:45] The science behind how breathwork changes your brain waves. [43:53] How you can use breathwork for digital creation. Christie Rocha's and Chelsea Connors's Ah-Ha Moments “What I do for work is an extension of who I am, so the fact that I get to share that freely on social media feels like a creative expression rather than an obligation.” - Chelsea Connors. “When you are experiencing a creative block, don’t force it. Step away for a second. Do a task that gets you out of your head, so you can focus on the big picture.” - Chelsea Connors. “Breathwork is a way to intentionally create an intense experience in the mind that creates new neural pathways through the intensity of your breath.” - Chelsea Connors.
