Register here: https://www.lizsvatek.com/empowherIf your life looks good on paper but feels MEH, this episode is for you.In this powerful episode, Liz breaks down the 5 subtle signs you’re living in a disempowered state.Empowerment is a state of being — and most women were never taught how to access it! We don't know how to show up for others and for US.Liz shares how disempowerment quietly creeps into the lives of women over 40 through over-giving, people-pleasing, constant busyness, emotional exhaustion, and waiting to feel “ready.” You’ll learn why this isn’t a personal failure, it’s a predictable outcome of decades spent prioritizing everyone else.Here's what you'll learn in this episode:• Why empowerment is a nervous system state, not a mindset• How being “nice” can actually drain your power• Why boredom, restlessness, and numbness are signals — not problems• The real reason you feel disconnected from what you want• Why clarity comes after commitment, not before• How midlife is not a crisis — but an initiation into your next eraThis episode is both a wake-up call and a relief. You’re not broken. You’re not behind. You’re not ungrateful.You’re ready.✨ Liz also invites you into EmpowHER, her free 3-day workshop designed to help women step out of autopilot and back into clarity, confidence, and grounded power.
