Starfish Hypnosis
Starfish Hypnosis is a podcast hosted by Liz McKean; hypnotist, coach, yoga teacher, recovery & mental health advocate, and lover of metaphors.
The name of the show is inspired by "The Starfish Story," and the belief that every precious star in the sea and sky deserves peace within (you are one of those precious stars). You can expect to hear stories and reflections about the power of your subconscious mind to feel better, alongside frequent reminders that you are not doing it wrong (any of it). Your joy, your work, your healing, and your desire for something more matters.
This is an invitation to make your world- the inner and the outer- a place you like to be.
Starfish Hypnosis
Doing our best when things are SO FRIGGIN HARD

Today I come to you as my messy, sick, overwhelmed, very human, and ever-hopeful real-life self!
And oh hey- I have a new Instagram page! It is barely birthed but I hope you follow along. Just look for the handle @starfishhypnosis (or click the link). I plan to share more in depth hypnosis & how-to-feel-better content in this new space, and I can't wait to connect with you there.
(I'll still post on @starfishyoga with more general life things and, well, mostly my dog.)
Back to the pod! In this episode, we explore:
- Doing your best is enough!
- Why focusing on what’s right in front of us can be grounding when the world feels heavy (and heavy it is)
- The difference between ignoring hard things vs. tending to yourself inside them
- How joy and struggle can exist at the same time, and must.
Things I hope you remember:
- You don’t have to be “fine” and if the best you can do is work on feeling better in this moment, that's perfect
- Feeling overwhelmed is a valid response to living in this world
- Nothing’s forever. Even this.
- We can do hard things, we can feel joy- and we must.
