Podcasts about why liz

We can all draw strength and community from the stories of others. Today’s guest uses her talents in acting, producing, and writing to inform and educate people about perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. Her overriding messages are that everyone deserves help and support so they don’t feel like she did, isolated and alone. Elizabeth Masucci is an actress, producer, and writer based in NYC. She started in theater and then began working in TV and film. Liz has starred on several TV shows such as Elementary, Royal Pains, and Public Morals, which was produced by Ed Burns and Steven Spielberg. She now mostly produces her own projects with a company she started with a friend. They have a few TV shows in development, one of which is a dark comedy about women struggling with perinatal mood and anxiety disorders at a maternal mental health center. Since Liz struggled with PMADs while she was pregnant with her daughter, she uses this creative outlet to share her story and spread support and information to others. She is also the mom of a little boy who was born last December. Show Highlights: How Liz experienced depression and anxiety in her first pregnancy in 2018 Because she had no information and no support, she felt confused, and her emotional swings and rage spiraled out of control How she saw a reproductive psychiatrist who prescribed medications, when Liz really wanted to explore further the why and what of her experience How she discovered the Motherhood Center in NYC through Postpartum Support International and signed up for the day program, which turned out to be a lifesaver How the varied aspects of support in the group therapy program helped Liz feel more stable and supported, along with Prozac How Liz transitioned later into her postpartum with the same support from the center What it was like in the beginning when realized that “something wasn’t right;” she felt tired, unmotivated, and totally overwhelmed with the normal tasks in preparing for a baby How Liz felt about telling others about her struggles How Liz immediately felt much better after giving birth The hesitancy and questions around taking medications during pregnancy How Liz felt during her second pregnancy, when she continued on medication; it was during the pandemic, but she had an easy postpartum period with no dark places Why Liz wanted to share her experience as an outlet for her and a way to help others Liz’s projects: a TV show about PMADs and group therapy, and a film about postpartum psychosis Why there is such stigma and misunderstanding around PMADs and postpartum psychosis What Liz wants others to know: “When you’re pregnant and in the postpartum, your body is going through a lot. Things will come up, so don’t ignore them. Don’t feel shame, but find the resources available to help you.” Resources: Liz Musucci @lizmasucci on Instagram and Twitter  

On the show today is author, entrepreneur, activist, and all around powerhouse Liz Forkin Bohannon. A few years after founding her company, Sseko, an ethical fashion brand which creates education and employment opportunities for East African women, she recognized that Sseko could have an equal impact on women in the US by transitioning it from a wholesale structure to a network marketing, community-driven direct sales business.    She and Kristen cover that story along with so many other powerful realizations they’ve each had as they learned what it really means to ‘find your purpose.’    Separating your identity from your output in the world What happens when you release yourself from being ‘special’ and own being ‘average’ How being in purposeful alignment it unlocks a whole new world of creativity Why Liz is so passionate about cultivating community for her family and for women around the world The difference between saying “I found my purpose” and “I built my purpose” Why “CQ” is as important if not more important than “IQ” The story behind how Sseko morphed from a wholesale company to a direct sales/network marketing company How leaders who drop their “polished and perfect” armor have more impact on their following and employees   Join Kristen and Liz in this open and refreshing conversation about women, community, and social selling.    For show notes and more visit the episode webpage: https://www.kristenboss.com/Pluck-and-Purpose-with-Special-Guest-Liz-Bohannon-ep-44   You can listen to Liz's podcast, Plucking Up, by going here:  http://lizbohannon.co/plucking-up/ To learn more (and shop!) about Sseko Designs head over to their website: https://ssekodesigns.com/?u=ssekohq&r=C22904 And if you’re ready to learn the simple process of running your social selling business online, you have to check out my live coaching program!

Chemical Mary wants the world to have biological weapons, Liz wants Chemical Mary, The Freelancer wants to explode planes, and Cooper may have just exploded his life.  Support the Show! Be sure to #FillTheFedora on Patreon. Case Profile for Chemical Mary Liz’s plan is starting to come together. Or is it? This week we meet Chemical Mary, a woman that believes if the world has nukes that it should also have saran gas and a host of other nasty chemical weapons at its disposal. She is working on a weapon, HeePhoxy, that even the mere touch of it to human skin will shut down all organs of the victim, suffocating them from the inside out. Why Liz wants Chemical Mary? That’s a question for next week. This week is the how she gets Chemical Mary through the use of the Freelancer. Liz tasks Alban to corrupt a plane’s sensors so that it will crash into another plane. Chemical Mary is supposed to be on that plane but instead she abducts Mary at the airport before she makes it onto the plane and instead tips off red and the task force on how to prevent the crash from happening, giving the FBI the freelancer to put back behind bars. Aram and Cooper however have bigger problems with the flash drive and even though Aram figured out how to read what was on it, that act may have just sealed Cooper a fate of certain doom. Be sure to answer our profiling question of the week: Will Red kill Cooper? Visit our feedback page to leave a response or call +1 (304) 837-2278.

Episode 114 Today I am speaking to Liz Lee about plant medicine a journey of self-discovery. Liz Lee specializes in helping coaches, consultants, intuitives and healers make authentic connections with their potential clients online through WordPress web design, consulting, maintenance and hosting. Liz goes beyond all "the tech stuff" to work with her clients holistically, helping them break through blocks and limiting mindsets that would otherwise hold them back from serving in their highest capacity. In this episode, we dive deep into plant medicine and how it allowed Jill to connect with her consciousness on a whole new level. Highlights you won’t want to miss: Why Liz signed up for The Sacred Scotland tour with Ryan McKenna. Why Liz was in a process of soul retrieval as a result of her recent trip to Costa Rica (Episode 17). Why Liz was determined to reconnect with her partner after her trip to Costa Rica. The dangerous habit of shutting down desire when you think you can’t get what you want. The importance of understanding how desire fuels the universe. The power of recognizing that there is an energy flow that happens in sacred sites around the world. Why self-care is so much more than looking good in a bikini, it’s about taking care of your body so that your soul can live its best life. Why keeping a promise might not be the best thing to do if it makes you miserable. The shifting point that happened when Liz decided to surrender and had a conversation with her partner to acknowledge the end of the romantic connection. How Liz came out as bisexual. How Liz felt alive again by realizing that she could attract someone that was more sexually compatible with her. The decision Jill had to make about staying in a monogamous relationship or exploiting the whole thing about being bisexual. How Jill dealt with being anxious and how became open and free of guilt and shame. How to plant medicine helped Jill to connect with her consciousness in a way that allowed her to see parts of herself that she should have not have been able to see otherwise. How Jill came out to her parents and disclosed the uncoupling. How when you reach that point of surrender, you have zero resistance. Why even though your head seems like the safest place to be, it’s really anything but safe because your brain will kick in and create stories. Why you need to get into your heart because even though you may think it's not safe to be in your heart, it’s the safest, strongest place you can be. Your heart intelligence has information for you that you simply cannot access if you're just in your head.   Shareable Quotes: “With the help of plant medicine, I have connected with this consciousness that reflects back to me my own consciousness in a way that I would not otherwise be able to see those parts of myself.” - Liz Lee “When I'm in my heart space, the triggers are simply opportunities to do deep healing of past traumas.” - Liz Lee “When you take self-care to another dimension, you're taking better care of yourself, not to look hot in a bikini, it's so that your soul can explore so that your soul can live its best life.” - Emily Aarons “Everyone has everything that they need inside of them, we are all born innately whole and we forget. ” - Emily Aarons   Resources to Take You Deeper: Liz's Website Find Liz on Istagram Liz's Choices and Recommendations: Ayahuasca - Rama Organica (Retreat Venue), Ryan McKenna, Sarah Kennedy, Kristina Lee Jensen, Cacao, and Polyamory and Polyfidelity

Liz Higgins, LMFT is back! And this time we're talking about the common fears couples face during their engagement season. Why fears bubble up, how to face them, and why they're actually a good thing because they can help us grow. * In This Episode: Tackle your fear like Dory the fish: "Go Through It, Not Over It " (Finding Nemo) Doing the Work on your relationship helps couples build on their strengths. Just like someone sees a personal trainer or a business coach because they're trying to get to the next level; couples who lean in to these conversations while they're engaged see the rewards in married life. The most common fears couples have during this season. How they're perfectly normal and what they're trying to tell us. How our dating culture is changing within the millennial generation and how it's shaping our values. Why we should NEVER say "Happy Wife, Happy Life" -- and other outdated views. Why Liz says "we repeat what we don't repair." Instead of coming to marriage with a preconceived notion of what your roles will be, or default to the type of marriage your parents might have/have had, be intentional now about how you'll show up. About Liz Higgins, LMFT Liz Higgins is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Dallas, TX. She is the founder of Millennial Life Counseling, a practice focused on helping couples and individuals create epic marriages, relationships, and lives in the modern world. Liz’s relationship blogs have been featured on The Huffington Post, Today, The Gottman Institute Blog, Prepare-Enrich, and more. Liz has a publication in the AAMFT Magazine, and continues to write and speak on millennial trends related to couple dynamics. _____________________________________________ Follow Liz & Millennial Life Counseling @millenniallifecounseling milleniallifecounseling.com _____________________________________________ Follow Essential Wedding Podcast & Essential Planner Co. on Instagram: @essentialweddingpodcast  | @essentialplannerco * page 59 in Essential Wedding & Engagement Planner

A conversation with Liz Higgins, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and the Owner of Millennial Life Counseling. Whitney and Liz deep dive into all things premarital planning and discuss the types of conversations and decisions a couple can make in their engagement season so they're clear and very well prepared for married life. Some highlights of the conversation include: Why choosing the right partner is of course very important, but definitely isn't the only ingredient for a happy marriage. A joyful, fulfilling relationship requires more. In this episode, we discuss what 'more' looks like as daily practice. Despite what some of us previously assumed - myself included - it's not crucial that both people in the relationship complete the work on themselves (as individuals) prior to getting married. Often, it is getting married that inspires us to rise and become our best selves. So it's perfectly fine to 'do the work' after you get married. How you two can write your marriage mission statement and define your core values -- and why they're both super important. The difference between interdependent relationships (healthy) vs. codependent relationships (unhealthy). We discuss some of our favorite celebrity couples and dig into what they do to achieve true interdependent partnership. Why Liz doesn't feel that compromise really works for modern day couples. How you and your partner can have the right kinds of conversations so both of your needs are met and compromise isn't required. Going to premarital counseling doesn't mean there is something wrong with your relationship -- it actually means there is something very right.

We recently hosted a conversation between Claire Lee, Head of Early Stage at Silicon Valley Bank, Liz Curtis, CEO & Founder at Table + Teaspoon, and CJ Legare, Lean Startup Co. Chief of Staff, about the realities facing female entrepreneurs today. In Claire, Liz, and CJ’s conversation, they discuss: - Why Liz decided to start Table + Teaspoon, a “Rent the Runway, but for table settings.” - What Claire calls the “Single Digit Club” and what we can do to change it. - The importance that mentors have played in both Liz and Claire’s career. And much, much more… Liz Curtis didn’t always intend to be an entrepreneur, least of all in the world of entertaining. In fact, she was studying to become a lawyer when she started Table + Teaspoon — a blog that featured decorating ideas, entertaining tips and recipes. The blog was initially just a creative outlet for Liz as she pursued her career as a corporate litigator, but eventually, it became a much bigger idea that she launched into a business. In 2013, while she was still practicing law, Liz decided she wanted to build something “rather than tearing things apart,” the latter of which she felt she was doing as a lawyer. Liz pivoted on her career and started interviewing with startups to do something — anything — to hop aboard their rocket ship. But after verbally agreeing to join a startup about to launch their new app, she “realized that she’d rather build her own rocket ship.” So in 2013, she left law behind and started looking at what tech-enabled solutions were needed in the entertaining space, a huge market lacking any innovation and thus ripe for disruption. After getting her hands dirty and exploring a little bit of everything in the industry — catering, interior design, flowers, weddings — she landed on her current business model which she describes as “Rent the Runway, but for table settings.” The bootstrapped idea launched as a prototype in the Fall of 2016, went nationwide in 2017, and late last year she started raising her seed money, which, according to Liz, “is the hardest thing I’ve done in my life, including taking the California bar exam.” Email us: education@leanstartup.co Follow Lean Startup Co. @leanstartup https://leanstartup.co/education

Injuries can leave employees sidelined and organizations flailing. As an employee recovers, is management demonstrating support and trust or neglect and suspicion? Liz Simpson shares the story of her laceration, the importance of communication and trustful gestures, and how NOT to deal with employees that are injured.    00:04 – Opening quote, Liz Simpson Liz Simpson You're at work more waking hours than you're at home. What are you going to do with the people that have been put there with you? What are you going to do with this? What are you going to make of it for people? Are you going to make people where they don't want to come in? I mean, I've had many days where I was, when I was, this kept going on, there were so many days and I was like, “Oh thank God, I cut my fingers! Now, I don't have to deal with them.”  And, that's crazy!   00:36 - Intro I think he's been sick. She just seems sad all the time. I think something happened at home. What should we do?   You want to help someone when they're going through a hard time. But it can be difficult to know what to do or what to say. Hi, I'm Liesel Mertes and this is the Handle with Care podcast, where we talk about empathy at work.   On each episode. I welcome a guest that has lived through a disruptive life event. We cover topics from death to divorce to that scary diagnosis and in each story, we give you actionable tips on what you can do to show empathy and give support as a manager a co-worker or a friend.   01:26- Injury in the workplace Liesel Mertes Today we are talking about workplace injuries and the way we treat our co-workers when they don't seem to be pulling their weight my first introduction to workplace injuries was in the pages of Upton Sinclair's classic book, The Jungle. Perhaps you had to read it as required reading in high school as well. The Jungle is set on the fetid floor of the meatpacking industries of Chicago just around the turn of the 20th century. Workers died in alarming numbers while working on the slaughterhouse floor and Jurgas, the Lithuanian protagonist, finds himself thrown out on the street without a job after an injury. And the book continues to devolve from there.   Now, American workplaces have definitely improved from the days of The Jungle where you were thrown out after being injured but there's still ways that companies mishandle their employees.   02:29-  Meet Liz Simpson Liesel Mertes Today we're talking with Liz Simpson about her injury in the workplace. Liz is a dentist here in Indianapolis.   We sat next to each other at a networking event about a month and a half ago and I was instantly drawn to her quick laugh if we were in high school. I wanted to share a locker with her or a lunch table. She's pretty quick with the story and there's something about her that puts you at ease. After graduating from college Liz worked as a bilingual aide in Indianapolis Public Schools and it was there that she decided to make a career shift   03:10- Why Liz became a dentist Liz Simpson A little kid came up to me, I'm pretty sure that's how a little kid came up to me and asked me like, "Who are you?" And they had these little silver teeth that I had never seen before. Yeah. And do you know, the more the school year went on and I would just see kids with these teeth. And finally one day I asked one of my co-workers like what's the deal with this. Yeah. She was like, "Sometimes their teeth get so rotten that they have to get these caps put on." And I found that the whole school year I would think about it a lot, and I had been premed and undergrad and wanted to be a doctor from the time I was three years old. So this wasn't completely out of the realm of what I thought I wanted to do.   And the final straw was that spring. So you know the school year starts in like August 20th. That would have been in 2003 and that spring. I think Miss America was on and I was watching and the next day I was at work and I was talking to my co-workers and we were talking about how they always have that platform and they're like I am a proud sponsor of whatever it is. And I told them, "Man, if I was on Miss America, my platform would be to go to, like, third world countries and like teach kids how to brush their teeth." And when I was driving home that day I was like if I want to teach people to take care of their teeth, maybe I want to be a dentist   04:37- A pivotal conversation Liesel Mertes But, at the time, Liz thought that dentistry looked easy and a little gross. However over the course of the year she kept returning to this desire to help kids take care of their teeth through being a dentist and an early conversation with her mom shaped just the sort of dentist she wanted to be.   04:59- A pivotal conversation continued Liz Simpson I took my mom out to lunch. I was like, "Well I think I want to be a dentist. I think when applied to dental school" and she said, famously, "Listen, people hate the dentist." And she went on this long tirade about how people don't like dentists about they don't like how the dentist makes you feel better if you are flossing enough. And she went on and on and on and then she stopped and went, "This is great!" And then she starts talking about how good it was and blah blah blah but that was my that was my introduction to telling somebody I want to be a dentist, is the first person I told, I got a negative answer right off the bat. And that was that lunch.   Liesel Mertes You just said I shall not be.    Liz Simpson I think I think my mom thinks I'm kidding. And I think patients think I'm kidding but I've told many many patients that when they're scared and I'm like listen this my own mother this is what she said to me when I told her that's what I wanna do. And I was like, I don't I don't take this lightly that people don't like it. So you know I think it I don't know what I would have been like if that hadn't been what somebody first said to me, you know, the person who I came from   06:11- The injury Liesel Mertes And it worked, she became that dentist. She loved her work and her patients loved her. And then this last December, her injury occurred.   Liz Simpson I was washing dishes and I think I was sort of looking up at the TV and I picked up a glass and they didn't really look at it and I stuck my sponge in swoop swoop. And then my fingers felt like it was on fire and I took it out and I had sliced into my left index finger and I'm left handed. And I sort of rinsed it off to see like how deep down in there. It was just like him or was it it felt like it was burning like I had never felt anything burning like that before.   And I don't even think I looked at the glass that I might have looked and there was this huge gash in it that I just didn't see. And my a couple of my friends at the time lived in my apartment and so I called my friend and I was like I cut my finger like something's going on.   And she came over with a little bottle of Neosporin and I was like I don't think I'm going to help this.   07:20- The hospital visit Liesel Mertes Yes, this was a job that was much bigger than Neosporin and a Band-Aid. Liz rushed to the hospital where they took an x ray and had to give her numbing medicine. A lot of numbing medicine.   Liz Simpson He was there, they took an x ray to make sure there was no glass and it got me numb. It took more anesthetic to get me now which I look back at now and I'm like That was sort of indicative that there was a problem and they put some stitches in it. And you know when, when you're a dentist or anything where you work with your hands you it occurs to you if something happens with my hands I won't be able to work and I don't really know that many dentists where something has happened where they haven't been able to work.   And so even you know sitting there in the E.R., before they discharged me and I was texting my mom and she told me to tell the doctors, like, make sure you tell him you're a dentist when he does those stitches and I'm like, OK thank you. And you know, they put the stitches in and I'm looking at it sort of like this is gonna be really uncomfortable. Not really thinking of any more implications than Oh man I'm going to take off a couple days.   08:33- It still hurts Liesel Mertes So she did take a couple of days and tried to go back the following week but there was a lingering numbness and this made it really difficult as she tried to handle her instruments.   Liz Simpson You know we hold our instruments and I'm left handed. It's like everything's resting on this thing that I can't feel it's in someone its mouth. Yeah. And so I ended up being off of work.   08:58- The first day back Liesel Mertes Can I ask you a little bit about that day so you go back? And, you think, "I'm here, I'm ready. But, you're in the workplace and suddenly you're realizing, oh my gosh this is more than I bargained for   Liz Simpson And that's why I was crying.   Liesel Mertes Right. So you started crying.   Liz Simpson Oh I was sobbing.   Liesel Mertes Tell me more about how that played itself out. Did you go? Was it in between patients? Did you cry after? Was there anyone there for you?   Liz Simpson So, at the time, we had dental students from the dental school that rotated through our clinic. So fortunately I was able to have one of them see the patient that we were working on when I realized how bad it was. And so I went out and told my manager who happened to be there that day. And I was just like this numb it hurts.   I was like I can't even because of where the Band-Aid was and I still had the stitches and at that point I couldn't even really get my gloves on correctly. And it's like OK well do I wear a bigger glove. Well then I can't hold things because the gloves. And it was just it was a big ordeal.   10:01- Feeling overwhelmed at the office Liz Simpson And I do tend to blow things out of proportion. So it's like I'm never going to work again. This is it for me. And you know I'm sure there's many people that in the same situation would be like, What if this is like this forever? Right?   And it's very hard to calm down and say OK this was six days ago.   Liesel Mertes It's this cascade of emotion because you don't know. You've never, you've never lacerated your finger. You don't know   Liz Simpson Right. And even if it had been my right hand you know the glove part would have been frustrating but just knowing like and even you know I like to paint I have other things I like to do and it's like everything I like to do. I need this to be working I need this to be 100 percent. So it was sort of this moment of what is my life gonna be like now. And so that was that was scary   10:55- Judgment of co-workers Liesel Mertes So, Liz is feeling all of these emotions at work wondering about implications for the rest of her life. And this is where I'd like to take a brief divergence from the flow of Liz's story. We'll get back to the tale of her recovery I promise. Because if you've been in an office setting before you know how these things go when a co-worker is out there the logistics of having to pick up their workload. But there's also the office talk the wondering, does this person really need to be off of work? Is it really as bad as they're saying it is? Now, maybe you've never had those kind of thoughts, but Liz certainly had.   Liz Simpson I think a lot of times because I've been in positions at a job where somebody has something happen and you're like they're exaggerating and I'm sure I had a job a while ago where somebody and I mean I hate to say supposedly because I had something happen but slipped and fell on some ice and then was off for a really long time with back pain and I remember we all were sort of like yeah right whatever. And so then and you know I feel like I'm a Christian so I feel like God the Universe whoever you believe in puts you in these situations and for me I think it's really helped me be a lot more empathetic because I remember so many days thinking back to that co-worker and thinking, Man I feel so bad and I never I think, I probably reached out at some point but, do you know, for a very long time it was, yeah right. And now I was like, yeah, I'm in this position and   Liesel Mertes You're worried, perhaps in that moment, based on your own experience, how are other people perceiving me? Which is its own thing to carry.   Liz Simpson And its not like I had a big cast on I had some stitches and a Band-Aid and all you can do is tell people like this is how it feels   13:03- Still out of work Liesel Mertes And how it feels is not good. Liz tries to go back in January. It's still a no go:  really painful. And at this point she's coordinating with doctors and specialists and physical therapists doing exercises to try to stimulate these nerves and injuries working to show the feeling of vibrating instruments and build up a tolerance. She wants to get back to work.   13:32- Back and forth with HR Liz Simpson Because they had had to cancel patients a lot because they'd be like OK I think I can work next week and leave them off then I'd be like What's the doctor. They wrote me out. So it was this thing where I was like I guess I could never I could never give an amount of time how long I would be off work which listen that's not fun for me. I don't like having to call my doctor every few days and I like having to drive out to get a doctor's note.   I don't like my body not being right like this is not some fun, Oh, hahaha like I'm still off work. I don't know. And I like my job. You know I like doing good work. I've had...and this isn't to brag, I've had so many patients that are like, "You're the best dentist I've ever had." Or I give them a shot and they're like, "I didn't feel that at all." This is what I wanted for myself. That's what my mom wanted for me and to be in this place, and listen I've been working, I've been working seven years total. I've been six years here do you know, I'm a young dentist, you know. This isn't the end of my career. It's not like, you know, let's just pack it up. This is the beginning. And to have this thing where it's like what is this going to be like, this is really, really hard.   14:50- Poor response from the boss Liz SImpson I can remember when it was but at one point I e-mailed I think my manager and my boss and I had been texting emailing all along the way like I've got another doctor's letter. And so, there was a point when I think they said, make sure you let so-and-so and H.R. know. And so I would email her and tell my manager well then my manager sort of stopped responding. So then it ended up just being me communicating with H.R. lady and at one point she said make sure you let my boss know.   And so I emailed him something, and, and this made me so mad because keep in mind this was now maybe February and the email was something like, "Oh thanks for letting me know. I was a physical therapist before I was a dentist. And so if you have any questions let me know I could be of some help" and bubble bubble blah and I almost lost my mind because it was like first of all I've been seeing my doctor a hand surgeon an occupational therapist who focuses on hand issues I've already been seeing her we've been doing things through my hand please like don't give me a break like and if you really felt concerned three months ago why didn't you say anything.   That was the I was the only time I heard from him when I texted my manager and my boss December 4th or 5th or whatever day was say, "Hey I'm headed to the E.R." when I text them when I got out and was like, "Hey I'm gonna be off tomorrow you know with my because I have to keep my bandage dry for 24 hours" and I think when he wrote back that day like thanks for letting us know. I didn't hear from him again until February. In that email, and this is a person who's a fellow dentist, this person is my colleague, even if we never work again we're colleagues we have the same degree...and the very idea that you couldn't ever reach out on your own, not responding to something that I've sent to explain, like, I'm still off with another doctor's letter...not that, but just as a fellow human being as my colleague to say, "Hope you're getting better...never."    It was something where...and I do need to add in that the company that I worked for they were sort of relocating where I was working and so they had given me my notice that I was going to be done with them from the day that they told me I was given six more months there. So, then it was very awkward to have like this last six months and then be off and part of it. But I don't know it was just it was always the shock..   18:02- They don’t care Liz Simpson And then there's part of you that's sort of like, they don't care that I'm really scared. They don't care that I'm scared. They don't care that this, and I mean it wasn't, thank God, I've since gone back to work. This could have been career ending and they don't care.   Liesel Mertes This is a theme that list comes back to you a few times in the interview. This lack of empathy and engagement:  what would it cost her employer to have reached out? Why would you not extend yourself to someone who's in such obvious pain? Liz offered some of her thoughts on the matter.   18:46- How to show empathy Liz Simpson Be the bigger person. Just put that out in the atmosphere that you are concerned about this person and let the chips fall where they may. Do you know, if they're lying, something will happen and they may not even realize whatever, whatever happens, happens something will happen that they are paid back. But you will be rewarded too. Like what loss would it have been for my boss to be like,  "Hey,  man," like, months ago, not in response to an email that I've sent on your own, to just say, "Hey, hope you're getting better." What would that have cost him? You know?   Liesel Mertes What I hear in what you're saying...even you said a few minutes ago:  "I've never been a manager. I've never run a practice", but you do bring to it, right, you've been a human being for a couple of decades right? And even even on the playground you know, when you're young like my kids, they realize what it means when somebody's skins their knee to come over and say, "Are you okay? Can I get the teacher? And when there are all these levels of bureaucracy or process our own hang ups that we get we get distanced from that very human impulse to say, so somebody's skinned their knees or lacerated their finger. You should, you should pause, you should intersect.   20:19- The impact of empathy Liz Simpson And you know, I think it's really hard. In the couple of years that I worked this particular job, one of my co-workers was going through a divorce and you know we're not supposed to be our phones at work. And if she listens to this she knows I love her. She would be on the phone all the time, all the time, and there would be many days when I would sit there, but be just listening to her, waiting for her to get off the phone to set up so that we can get started on something.   And sometimes I would sit there and think, "What is this going to hurt next week, In the next, I mean maybe our schedule get behind. We'll fix it. But what is this going to hurt if for this season I've got to let her do this? What is it going to hurt?   21:26- You can’t turn off your emotions Liz SImpson We have this idea that you should be able to go to work and turn that off. And I think it's very American that it's like you're going to go to work and you're going to shut that off and you're going to take care listen produced for the night you're going to be produced for the next eight hours. And then when you hit the door you can then turn those emotions back on. And that is not real life for many people. There are people that can do that. Good for them. I'm not one of them and there's people who they get to work when they can getting engrossed and everything in they are OK. But at some point we have to say there are people who are going to be at work and may need to step up and cry about something or are going to have to be on the phone dealing with stuff the work will get done. And I think if you've taken the care to choose good people you won't have people that will take advantage of that.   Liesel Mertes And what it can do on the other side, also, you mentioned this friend going through a divorce, is that you're still good friends. When you extend care to someone at their moment of need...you know, how much different how would the story have felt different for you if you had been so supported along the way felt reached out to you felt cared for? There still might have been perhaps a work transition but you would be telling a different story.   22:57- A story of showing care Liz Simpson I wouldn't be here. And even you know I look at my co-worker that was divorced and just how I tried to support her in my own way. You know, not as her boss because that's not how it's set up when you work for a system. But I remember, I had a family friend who's a doctor and one time I was visiting her at work and one of her assistants made her coffee for her. And I was like my assistants have never made coffee for me.   And it was so funny because one day I had gone to like see a patient or something. I came back in my office and my coffee was sitting there and my assistant she had made it for me and I just remember thinking like, "oh, my god, I've reached that point" you know? And I think she knows I cared about her. So it wasn't this servant thing or as I call me Dr. Simpson's coffee or she's going to get mad at me. It was this thing where it was like she cares about me I care about her. Let me go ahead and just make this coffee really quick. And I just thought it was such a sweet sign that she saw that I cared about her and so she was willing to do that.   24:11- How does the story end? Liesel Mertes How does the story end? Well, Liz continues to improve and has returned to work, although not with this employer. After feeling mishandled and overlooked in her work, Liz decided to cut ties early with her workplace. Moving on to another dental practice and reflecting on her experience, Liz offers these closing thoughts.   24:35- Liz’s reflections Liz Simpson You're at work more waking hours than you're at home. What are you going to do with the people that have been put there with you? What are you going to do with this? What are you going to make of it for people? Are you going to make people where they don't want to come in an hour? I mean I've had many days where I was when I, as this kept going on, there were so many days and I was like, "Oh thank god I cut my finger! No I don't have to deal with them!" That's crazy! It's like, is this what you want for your the people you've hired? Or do you want people who feel like this coworker was a godsend. You know, this person was there for me when I needed them.   25:23- Action #1, communication matters Liesel Mertes Here's some closing action points after our conversation. Number one:  communication matters. As a manager or a co-worker or friend, your silence can speak volumes. Reach out with a call, a text, an email.   25:44- Action #2, be aware and sensitive to emotions Liesel Mertes Two:  be sensitive to the emotions that an injured person might be feeling. Liz felt scared, worried about when and if she would ever recover. In showing that you're aware of their feelings, try offering a simple observation: "This seems really hard. I imagine that it might be scary or overwhelming or sad..." When you say something like that, it gives the person a chance to respond or not to respond and shows that you are considering their feelings in the midst of an injury.   26:24- Action #3, reflect on your assumptions about workplace injury Liesel Mertes Three:  just a closing question. What assumptions do you make about people that are off work for injury? Do you believe them? Or, are you suddenly judging them? Wondering if they're making it up? Liz spoke about how hurtful these assumptions can be. Are you making them?   26:49- Outro Thanks for listening to the Handle with Care podcast.

On today’s show, I’m joined by Liz Tennyson, who runs a Facebook ads business and is helping female entrepreneurs who are building businesses that support their families. In this episode, we talk about how Liz got started in the online space as a health coach, and how she became an expert in building sales funnels, as well as coaching others on their mindset.

“This notion of balance is this unrealistic thing we’re all striving toward. If you allow yourself to know that and believe that, it takes some of the pressure off.” —Liz Plosser When you picture an editor in chief of a major women’s magazine, your mind probably goes right to Miranda Priestly of The Devil Wears Prada fame. Now picture the opposite — someone brilliant, kind, caring, and passionate in the most upbeat, positive way — and you have Women’s Health editor in chief Liz Plosser. Liz was named EIC of Women’s Health at the beginning of 2018, and her rise to the role wasn’t fueled by fate. Liz, who grew up in Kansas City, MO, worked her marathoning booty off to get to where she is today. After starting out as an investment banking analyst, Liz followed her dreams (literally) and moved into publishing. She started out at Self, and rose through the ranks at Time Out Chicago, Cosmopolitan, Well+Good, Canyon Ranch, SoulCycle, and more. On this episode, Liz discusses the challenges and perks of her job, talks about being a busy mom of three, and shares why she’s proud to be a “nice girl.” Enjoy, and wish Liz luck before she lines up at the start of the Popular Brooklyn Half next weekend!
