I have no words of how much I'm grateful for this interview. My craving for love makes sense now and I'm gonna dig into the 12 steps programme to let myself and my ego go. Thank you Liz!
Thank you Liz for your generous, honesty, and helpful, personal experience. I am so grateful for you and for this conversation. It has opened my heart and brought peace to my mind. Many blessings to you all ❤
I’m in the same process- I’m 58 and have chosen to be in celibacy and no relationship for the last 3 years. My nervous system has been healing and my relationship with myself and ability to look at my patterns all so helpful. I’m motivated to explore the 12 steps of SLA. Thank you❤
This is so good! The thoughtfulness of her examining her trauma, our culture, and the reframe of the steps is so lucid. I want to send it to almost my friends who have identified as codependent. Yes, there is still a hesitancy in calling it sla. Her line about the seriousness of the disease and how people are dying everyday because of this was extremely powerful. May we all find support in seeing ourselves clearly and receiving guidance and support with a way out❤
I can’t even finish the damn book because it’s soooo moving and so awakening that I’m too busy studying this amazing and beautiful soul! I’m so moved by this so much more than anything I’ve ever read. Thank you and thank you again Elizabeth!!
I think you should publish the book, and use the profits to help Ukrainians. I would also use the book tour to highlight Ukranian voices and stories. It’s a huge problem in the US that so many Congressmen are refusing to aid Ukraine, I think a few hundred women being reminded to call their Congressmen would do a huge amount of good
Eat Pray Love moved me. And committed broke my heart. It killed the magic somehow. And strangely both books are honest. But the love ran out in Committed. And also the fact that she became woke, lesbian and broke that marriage which we all felt was a sign of universal magic, just felt like a let down. And no I am not judging....but it's like...u make someone believe in magic and then throw a bucket of cold water on their faces and say "Get up. Stop day dreaming".
Sweetie I think you took it too far in the other direction. Your ego has a role to play. You're allowed to want things AND have them for no reason other than that you want them. Denying that sounds a lot like codependency. And Byron Katie's nonsense that not having something means you don't need it? That's like the definition of a codependent rationalisation of one's own self-deprivation. It's a rationalisation to make the world make narrative sense so you feel okay. Like a little child would do. You can want something and deserve it and not get it because it be like that sometimes and you can cope with the pain of that without taking the blame back onto yourself or pretending you never needed it and therefore you don't have to want it. You want and need things. You're allowed.
Liz Gilbert is the best. A true gift to humanity. Thank you for the interview
Agreed! Thank you for your comment :)
She is!! A true gift to humanity..
i think everything about her expresses love.
Elizabeth Gilbert is transforming into a wise guru. She always had it, but now it's really shining out of her!❤❤❤
Liz is always so incredibly generous with her life.
Seriously! I was blown away :)

I need this . I’m 76 and didn’t get into SLAA till 76.
I'm so glad you found it! xo

Such a great interview. I love the flow of your questions and how relaxed yet deep the conversation went.
This was an amazing conversation, thank you so much!
Yay, I'm so happy you enjoyed it!
Amazing description of her journey and step 4. So deep, rich, profound and yet exquisitely uncomplicated.
Wow ❤🎉😊 What a deep and heart and mind moving interview. I am almost speechless. Thank you so much. ❤🎉😊
Thank you for this beautiful interview. I'm confused with the word "dishonesty" with regard to the fourth step.
Yesterday I was clever,so I wanted to change the world
Today I’am wise so I’am changing myself…Rumi
"Bless your heart" those are fightin' words. I got a strong reaction trigger from that😂
I appreciate your honesty, humility and wisdom. Thank you ❤
You guys missed the opportunity to connect The Artist’s Way to the 12 Step Program. That’s WHY TAW is a 12 week process!!! It’s based on the program.
Thank you so much and I hope you meet Oprah soon 😊🌼
That's the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me on here :)
Love the 12 steps. Friend of Lois w since 1991
She is a gifted woman.
‘Which one of them is going to choose you?’ All of them for me 🤣. But seriously, 12 step recovery works…
I think you should publish the book, and use the profits to help Ukrainians.

Great interview Arlina!
Thanks Chris!

Wow life changes ever moment.. magic moves around daily
I absolutely love Oprah! But she does not hold a candle to Liz!
Focus on the Karma; not the fruit. ❤
I'm so glad you commented this! I needed the reminder today :)
I really like this interview, but I had to shut it off because there is a commercial every few minutes!
Oh no! You can hear it ad free on Apple podcasts
Thank you for responding! I’ll check it out on there!
"Can we be attacked? It looks really nice." LOL
I mean...right?! lol

Now I know why the F word is used so often.
Why?
