The Liz Nicklas Show

What would Liz do if she were starting her coaching business from scratch today? Does she practice what she teaches at home? And what does she really think about the way most people approach mindset work?

You asked. Liz answers.

In this first Ask Liz Anything episode, Liz tackles five listener-submitted questions covering everything from persistent thought loops and building a coaching business to the origins of her signature teaching tools and what life is really like inside her own family.

Some answers are practical. Others are surprisingly personal. All of them offer a glimpse into how Liz thinks, works, and lives.

Have a question of your own? Liz is listening, and yours could be answered in an upcoming episode.

Email your question to [email protected]. No question is too big or too small and nothing is off limits.

Some experiences change us forever. A devastating loss, a betrayal, a painful chapter of life. Years later, the experience may be behind us, but its influence can still be felt in ways we don't always recognize.

What if there is something important we've overlooked about how our past shapes what's possible for our future?

In this episode, Liz challenges some widely accepted ideas about grief and healing and introduces a distinction that could change how you think about your own experiences.

Next week, she'll take this conversation deeper with five practical steps and specific questions to help you examine the beliefs your past may have left behind.

Make sure you're subscribed to The Liz Nicklas Show so you don't miss the upcoming episode, where Liz will walk through five steps and specific questions for examining the beliefs we carry from our past.

Who am I to…?

It’s a question that can sound almost reasonable when it shows up in your head. Maybe even humble.

What if this seemingly innocent question has been quietly making decisions for you? What if it has influenced what you say out loud, what you go after, what you allow yourself to want, and how much of yourself you’re willing to let other people see?

In this episode, Liz explains what’s really hiding underneath “Who am I to…?” and asks a much more important question: What is believing it costing you?

You’ve read the books. Listened to the podcasts. Done the programs. You understand your patterns and can probably explain exactly why you do what you do.

So what if your mindset isn’t actually the problem?

In this episode, Liz reveals the invisible variable that may be determining far more of your results than you realize, and why mindset itself was never meant to be the destination. If you’ve done the personal development work and know you’re ready to go deeper, listen to this one.

The Mindset Masterclass starts October 1. Yikes, that's tomorrow! Don't wait to get in the room!

Different people. Different relationships. Somehow, the same problems keep showing up.

What if the most important relationship to examine isn't the one you keep having trouble with?

In this episode, Liz explores the connection between your relationships with others and your relationship with yourself. She also shares a deeply personal situation she's navigating right now, including a decision she knows may hurt someone she cares about.

What she's learned about guilt, disappointment, and having her own back might change the way you approach your next difficult conversation or decision.

Ready to stop abandoning yourself and start changing the patterns that keep showing up in your life? Join Liz inside the Mindset Masterclass, starting October 1. Don't wait to get in the room!

Liz starts with a question: Do you believe in magic?

Inside every Mindset Masterclass, Liz teaches a 14-week curriculum designed to change the way people think, make decisions, work with beliefs and emotions, and understand themselves. Yet after hundreds of graduates, she has noticed that some of the most powerful transformations happen in moments she could never put on the syllabus.

She cannot plan them, predict them, force them, or recreate them the same way twice. Yet they happen every single time.

In this episode, Liz takes you inside MMC to explore what happens when learning becomes something much bigger, and why understanding more may not be the thing that ultimately changes you.

What if the thoughts shaping your decisions, emotions, and possibilities aren't facts at all, but stories your brain has learned to repeat?

In this special replay of The Shift, Liz explains how the brain uses the past to predict the future, why old patterns can feel so true, and how outcome-based thinking can interrupt that process. She shares her 7-step process for directing your thinking, the difference between low-quality and architectural questions, and how this work can create greater choice, possibility, and uncommon confidence.

The Mindset Masterclass begins October 1. Join by September 12 and receive a private 30-minute 1:1 coaching session with Liz, a session she does not offer for sale outside of her private coaching and mastermind work.

In this episode, Liz explores the relationship between energy, decisions, and results, including why two people can take the exact same action and create something entirely different. You’ll learn what to look for underneath your choices, why changing your behavior may not change the pattern driving it, and how to make difficult decisions with greater agency, clarity, and power.

Get in the room. The Mindset Masterclass is not where you come to learn more. It is where you come to change. Through coaching, immersion, practice, and reflection, you learn to see what is actually driving your thoughts, decisions, reactions, relationships, and results while they are happening. If you are ready to stop collecting information and start becoming someone who operates differently, join the next Mindset Masterclass. https://liznicklas.com/mmc

You have done the work. You are self-aware. You recognize your patterns and know what you should do differently. Then pressure hits, someone rejects you, a relationship gets shaky, or something unexpected happens, and suddenly the overthinking, self-doubt, people pleasing, or imposter syndrome comes roaring back.

Why does everything you know seem to disappear exactly when you need it most?

In this episode, Liz explains what is actually happening beneath those automatic reactions, why knowing better is not enough to change them, and what has to shift for change to become your new default.

If you recognize yourself in this episode, join Liz live for The Shift on September 9 at 4 p.m. ET. This free 90-minute Zoom event goes deeper into why your brain keeps returning to patterns you thought you had already changed and what it actually takes to create a different default. Liz offers this teaching only a few times each year. Come ready to learn, bring your questions, and discover what becomes possible when knowing better finally becomes changing.

What if the purpose of personal development isn't becoming better?

In this episode, Liz shares the most unexpected question she has ever been asked and the answer that completely reframes how she thinks about coaching, growth, and human potential. If you've spent years trying to improve yourself but still feel like something is missing, this conversation offers a very different perspective. It may change the way you think about confidence, success, and the person you were always capable of becoming.

If this conversation sparked something in you, don't stop here. Join The Shift on September 9 at 4 pm ET, a free, live 90-minute Zoom event offered only a few times each year. This is where Liz teaches the foundational ideas behind her work and shows you why lasting change isn't created by more information. It's created by learning to think differently.
