#21 From Dysfunction to Discovery

Today, I interview Elaine Williams who said that growing up, she felt an emptiness-- that something was wrong with the world. She experienced childhood depression and anxiety, feeling as if no one was really listening to her. Later events led to her feeling like "the lightning rod of the family", having too much directed at her. She felt it was unsafe to speak the truth for fear that it would be used against her. Missing the mark was not an option and her self-image began to crumble. Elaine credits many angels, educators, and mentors along the way for her self-discovery and spiritual awakening. After letting go of resentments, she was able to heal and find her own boldness and identity. Now, it's impossible to miss the fun energy she brings into the room! Email Elaine at [email protected] for a free story handout! __________________ Find her here: [email protected] https://captivatethecrowd.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/captivatethecrowd https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfD1O0ylVZ-3aIG1w6-PoVw https://twitter.com/Elaine_Tweets ___________________I'm your podcast host, Dr. Doreen Downing, and I help people find their voice so they can overcome anxiety, be confident, and speak without fear. Get started now on your journey to your authentic voice by downloading my Free 7 Step Guide to Fearless Speaking: https://www.doreen7steps.com.    Support the showI’m Dr. Doreen Downing and I help people find their voice so they can speak without fear.
