Heart On My Sleeve

Liz Sweigart: the addiction of INSECURITY


Listen Later

Meet Liz, a Tax Partner at PWC in Texas who gets very real about her experiences with anxiety, clinical depression, medication and OCD. Liz was naturally good at everything she turned her hand to, including mastering the art of living an inauthentic life to please others. Her goal was to be seen and liked. And she was, but it was for the person she thought they wanted her to be, so she had to keep her “true” thoughts and compulsions hidden. She openly talks about her relationship with external validation and how it’s the strongest drug we can come across, as we permanently chase that high to feel loved more than anything else. True to form, Liz is now a leader in driving awareness of mental ill health, particularly in the corporate space.

Topics covered:

  • The danger of masking our insecurities with relentless positivity
  • Liz’s breakthrough moment of knowing how to combat her obsessive thoughts and impulsive behaviour
  • How external validation is limitless and has no rock bottom
  • This is the link to the “demon duck of doom” that Liz mentioned at the end - https://cutt.ly/vlF6tQC
