Starting Late, but Starting: My 65th Birthday Reflections”

In this heartfelt episode, Elysabeth reflects on turning 65 and realizing that life is far from winding down — it’s expanding.

She shares what it means to move into a bigger home in just ten days, reopen her art studio, begin teaching again, and keep writing and coaching from a place of joy, alignment, and purpose.

This episode is a love letter to anyone who’s ever felt like they started too late. Elysabeth reminds us that it’s not about when we begin — it’s about having the courage to start at all.

With honesty, humor, and gratitude, she talks about health, creativity, and looking forward instead of backward. Because starting late still means starting — and when you start, life opens up in unexpected, beautiful ways.

✨ “You are never too late for your own life. The moment you say yes to yourself, life begins again.”

 "Aligning Identity with Your True End Goals”

In this episode of The Fairy Elephant Effect, I explore how identity can quietly shape our goals — and how aligning who you are with what you truly want transforms everything.

We talk about the difference between means goals and end goals, why chasing the wrong ones leads to exhaustion, and how to return to right action service — that peaceful state where purpose and energy align.

If you’re ready to change your identity, live with more purpose and power, and activate your passion, join the Elevator Group — a weekly space where all boats rise on the tide.

Today, I want to share something really personal with you — my phobia of flying.
 For years, that fear held me back. It wasn’t just about the plane — it was about control, surrender, and trust. Every time I even thought about flying, my body would react before my mind had a chance to reason with it. 

But here’s the thing — I faced it.
 This past weekend, I got on a plane and flew to Christchurch for a retreat — four nights and five days that truly changed my life.

When I got there, I realized something: the fear wasn’t really about flying at all. It was about the emotions I hadn’t processed — the ones that wanted to keep me safe but were really keeping me small. Once I began to connect to those deeper emotions, something started to shift.

That’s the power of self-work — of turning inward, of giving yourself permission to feel and heal.
 We think fear protects us, but so often, it just hides the part of us that’s ready to be free.

So, if you’re sitting there listening, wondering if it’s time for your next step — it is.
 If you’re ready to change your life the way I did, come to my retreat in February next year. It’s designed for real transformation — where you’ll be supported, seen, and deeply reconnected to your purpose.

Or if you’d like something more personal, work with me one-to-one, where we can uncover what’s holding you back and start shifting those emotional stories at their roots.

And if you’d like to be part of an empowering, ongoing community — come join my Elevator Group, where all boats rise on the tide. It’s a weekly space of growth, purpose, and courage.

Because sometimes, the only way to move beyond fear… is to take the flight.

Until next time — remember:
 You matter. And may the story shift for you.

The small things are never small. ✨

The arguments, frustrations, and breakdowns don’t happen in one moment — they’re built in all the little choices that came before. The silent resentments. The words we speak behind someone’s back. The thoughts we rehearse again and again.

But here’s the beauty: it also works the other way.

The laughter of our grandchildren.

Catching up with our adult Children 

Having that coffee with a friend

The kindness of a partner.

The joy of learning something new.

These small moments fill our “love boxes” — the places inside us that hold memories we can draw on when life gets hard.

This week on The Fairy Elephant Effect, I’m talking about the tipping point of negativity versus the tipping point of love, and how the choices we make each day are shaping the story of our lives.

In this episode of The Fairy Elephant Effect, I share the first time I used EFT tapping during a panic attack—while sitting in the car with my kids. For the first time in years, I didn’t have to get out and walk around to calm myself. EFT gave me a tool to shift the fear in real time and drive home with peace of mind.

We explore what EFT really is, how it works with the amygdala and nervous system, and why it’s such a gentle yet powerful practice for releasing old trauma and looping thought patterns. I explain how tapping helps rewire the brain, calm the body, and create new emotional freedom.

If you’ve ever struggled with stress, fear, or overwhelm, this episode will show you how tapping can become your doorway out. I also share a special September offer—three 45-minute EFT sessions for $222 NZD—so you can try this transformational tool for yourself.

Boundaries are not walls. They are bridges back to your own self-connection.

In this episode of The Fairy Elephant Effect, we go deeper into the real meaning of boundaries and how to set them without guilt. You’ll hear why boundaries are not rejection, how they keep you on your side of the street emotionally, and why guilt is simply an old story we no longer need to live by.

We’ll explore the difference between walls and healthy boundaries, the cost of living without clear limits, and the surprising truth that boundaries actually make relationships stronger — not weaker.

You’ll also get practical reflections and simple boundary phrases you can start using right away. By the end, you’ll see that boundaries aren’t selfish. They’re acts of love — love for yourself and love for others.

Elysabeth Wolter explores how language can become a powerful portal to transformation. Building on last week’s shift from “I have to” into “I get to,” this episode dives deeper into how the words we choose shape our energy, intention, and reality.

Elysabeth shares practical tools including affirmations, visualization, EFT tapping, mindfulness, power statements, and morning pages — all designed to help anchor new language into daily life. She also offers a list of high-energy words such as worthy, prosperity, creativity, and grace that listeners can use in journaling and reflection.

This episode also examines the emotional meaning of words, showing how the same word can carry very different energy depending on personal perspective. Using Should vs Could as a powerful example, Elysabeth demonstrates how small changes in language can shift us from pressure to possibility, from obligation to choice.

Tune in and discover how to rewrite your inner dialogue with intention — because the words you speak create the life you live.

Episode Summary:

In this week’s powerful episode of The Fairy Elephant Effect, Elysabeth dives into a topic that’s often misunderstood — the label of empath. While many people wear the word as a badge of honor, she gently challenges listeners to consider whether what they’re calling empathy might actually be emotional hypervigilance, people pleasing, or codependency in disguise.

Drawing from personal experience and her work with clients, Elysabeth explores how growing up in emotionally unpredictable environments can train us to tune in to others' needs at the expense of our own. What we think is empathy may actually be a learned survival response — one that disconnects us from our own body and boundaries.

The key takeaway? True empathy is not about absorbing others’ emotions. That’s entanglement. Real compassion — which includes the desire to help — comes from being anchored in your own energy. You can’t help anyone if you’re emotionally hijacked.

Elysabeth offers a new way forward: learning to stay on your own side of the street emotionally, building internal awareness, and reclaiming your energy from external drama.

She guides listeners through a powerful self-connection practice and reminds us that “You do not have to set yourself on fire to keep others warm.” This is a must-listen for anyone who identifies as sensitive, overwhelmed, or constantly drained by others’ emotions.

In this heart-led episode, Elysabeth Wolter shares why she believes teaching love languages to children—and activating them in ourselves—can transform classrooms, emotional literacy, and personal connection. She explores the five love languages not as labels, but as tools for safety, emotional regulation, and deeper self-awareness.

Elysabeth explains how understanding and using these languages helps children become more anchored, less reactive, and more empathetic. She also reflects on how teachers can first activate their own love language to model emotional fluency, helping to reduce classroom stress and nurture safer learning environments.

This episode includes a special invitation to primary school teachers in the Manawatu region for a hands-on, heart-led workshop on August 8,  in Palmerston North where Elysabeth will teach both love languages and the basics of EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) to create calm and connection in the classroom. email: Welcome@lizzziesinsightscoaching.com

In this episode of The Fairy Elephant Effect, Elysabeth explores the ripple effect of our habitual thoughts and how they shape our emotional lives, relationships, and future. She unpacks why we’re often programmed to focus on what’s wrong, how that becomes our default thinking, and what happens when we start choosing different thoughts on purpose.

Let me offer you some replacement thoughts. Try these:

• Things have a habit of working out for me.
• It just got easier today.
• Everything I do is flowing in the right way.
• I am allowed to feel good about my life.

What if you picked just one of those and repeated it? Let it sink into your body. Let it guide your next decision. Because those old thoughts you’ve had—those negative, critical ones—you’ve likely said them a million times. No wonder they feel familiar. But they’re not necessarily true.

There will be resistance. The new thought won’t feel comfortable at first. Your old programming—the negative beliefs—will push back. That’s okay. In fact, that’s a good sign. It means you’re disrupting the story. It means you’re waking up.

Elysabeth shares powerful reframes, personal reflections, and inspiring truths to help you shift the direction of your emotional current. She also revisits her conversation with Candice Dorsey, who spoke about how negativity shaped her identity—and how she began to break free.

This episode is an invitation to pause, disrupt the old story, and begin a new ripple with just one thought. Because it all starts and ends with you.

We’ve been taught that procrastination is a flaw — something to fix or feel ashamed of. But what if it’s not a problem at all? What if it’s a signal?

Finding Joy Beyond Trauma – A Reading from The Fairy Elephant Effect

This week on The Fairy Elephant Effect podcast, I’m doing something a little different — I’m reading directly from my book, The Fairy Elephant Effect.

It became my anchor during a time when everything else felt like it was falling apart.

The Power of Stillness, Self-Knowledge, and Stars with Damian McKinnon

In this deeply moving episode, Elysabeth Wolter is joined by astrology teacher and guide Damien McKinnon, whose story of transformation from childhood trauma to cosmic insight invites us to reflect on our own defining moments. Damien shares how a powerful, inner voice in the darkness at age seven changed everything, becoming a pivotal "fairy elephant effect" moment that set him on a path of self-awareness and healing.

He speaks candidly about carrying decades of mistrust due to early experiences of abandonment and exclusion—until a reconnection with his past peers revealed the truth: the story he’d been telling himself all these years wasn't the full picture. That realization brought stillness and peace he hadn’t known he was missing.

Together, Elysabeth and Damien explore how astrology can serve as both a map and mirror, guiding us through our evolving selves and providing insight through every stage of life. Whether you're drawn by curiosity or seeking clarity, Damien reminds us that it's never too late to know ourselves—and heal the stories we’ve outgrown.

Two Minds, One Body: Becoming the Hero in Your Health Story

In this episode of The Fairy Elephant Effect, I dive deeper into the heart-led path we started last time and introduce a powerful truth — we have two minds: one in the head, and one in the body. And when we ignore the second, we lose access to a deep well of wisdom and healing.

This episode sets the stage for my upcoming 4-part workshop series, Be the Hero in Your Health Story, starting May 1st. I’ll walk you through the concept of emotional narratives and how they influence — and even sustain — your health outcomes. With a body you feel safe in, and with the right tools and support, you can write a new story. One rooted in body sense, body comfort, and body love.

✨ Upcoming: Special guest Damian McKinnon joins me next week to talk astrology, tarot, and how it all ties into my book The Fairy Elephant Effect. You won’t want to miss it!

In this powerful episode, Elysabeth explores the frustrating and familiar experience of falling back into old patterns — even after doing mindset work, healing practices, or gaining insight. She challenges the idea that these setbacks are failures, instead framing them as responses from the emotional body, not the logical mind.

We all have two minds:

• The Logical Mind wants progress, makes plans, sets intentions, and often “knows better.”
• The Emotional Mind stores experiences, associations, and emotional imprints that shaped our survival patterns.

These old emotional stories — formed when we were young — can quietly lead our behaviors, even if we think we’ve “outgrown” them. They whisper things like:

• “Stay invisible.”
• “Don’t trust too easily.”
• “Be perfect or you’ll get hurt.”

Elysabeth explains that this isn’t resistance — it’s recognition from your nervous system. It’s your body remembering what happened last time you spoke up, stood out, or relaxed.

The episode invites us to stop blaming ourselves and instead understand that true healing comes from:

• Emotional awareness
• Creating safety within
• Body-based integration, not just mindset shifts

This is the heart of The Fairy Elephant Effect — returning to your truth by honouring the emotional story, not bypassing it.

💭 Reflection Questions from the Episode:

1. What emotional story is still leading, even though you logically know better?
   (Think about an area where you keep repeating a pattern despite knowing it’s not serving you.)
2. Where are you responding from protection, not presence?
   (Are you shrinking, people-pleasing, over-performing, or staying small to feel safe?)
3. What role have you been unconsciously playing… and who are you beneath it?
   (Notice if you've identified with roles like “the fixer,” “the strong one,” “the invisible one,” etc.)

Key Reminder from Elysabeth:

“You don’t need to fix yourself — you need to return to your truth.”

Elysabeth shares her insights as a Clarity and Growth Coach, weaving together personal reflections, science-backed perspectives, and practical tools to help you reconnect with your inner compass.

You’ll hear about:

• The science of how emotions influence our physical and mental wellbeing
• How the sway technique can help you tune into your body’s wisdom
• A heartfelt testimonial from client Melissa Shipp
• The power of addressing emotional clutter to enhance focus, confidence, and clarity
• Why heart coherence matters — with references to the work of Dr. Joe Dispenza and Joe Vitale
• A gentle reminder that healing and transformation start by reconnecting to the emotional self

In this episode of The Fairy Elephant Effect, we explore the deeper meaning of living a heart-led life — not as a rejection of logic, but as a return to inner harmony. I share what this way of living means to me personally, how it reconnects us with our body’s wisdom and emotional truth, and why it matters now more than ever. We also touch on the fascinating science behind heart intelligence — from the heart’s neural network to the power of heart coherence — and how tuning into this inner guidance system can transform the way we live, love, work, and make decisions.

The Fairy Elephant Effect 

In this episode, host Elysabeth Wolter, EFT Tapping Specialist, Happy Habits Activator, and YOUR Coach, explores the difference between inspired action and random action.

She explains why not all movement is beneficial and how true momentum comes from aligned action—actions that feel certain, natural, and intuitive. She introduces The Sway, a powerful technique for tapping into the body’s subconscious wisdom, allowing you to make aligned decisions with clarity and confidence.

 Key Takeaways:

✅ Inspired action feels right—it’s not forced or uncertain.

✅ Taking random action just to feel busy does not create progress.

✅ The Sway Technique helps connect with your subconscious truth and build trust in your inner voice.

✅ When action is aligned, it comes with a sense of certainty and clarity.

Welcome to The Fairy Elephant Effect Podcast! I’m Elysabeth Wolter, your host, EFT Tapping Specialist, Happy Habits Activator, and YOUR Coach. In the spirit of growth and flexibility, I am here to help you break free from negative patterns, build momentum, and create lasting change.

Podcast Summary – The Fairy Elephant Effect (Episode 12: Flow & Momentum)

In this episode, we dive into the power of flow and momentum—how they work together and why both are essential for progress.

I share personal insights on waking up without a sense of flow, how meditation helped shift my energy, and the importance of tracking daily actions to create evidence of momentum.

We explore the balance between flow (openness and flexibility) and wind (momentum and inspired action). Without wind, flow becomes stagnation. Plus, I discuss how resisting change can manifest in physical and emotional ways, with a real-life example of what happens when we ignore momentum.

Key Takeaways:

✅ Flow is about openness, but wind (momentum) is what moves us forward.

✅ Inspired action is essential—waiting to "see what happens" isn’t true flow.

✅ Ignoring movement can lead to setbacks, both mentally and physically.

✅ Life’s "no’s" are redirections to something better.

 In this episode, Elysabeth Wolter explores the heavy burden of self-imposed expectations and how they create relentless internal noise that keeps us from finding peace.
