Women Share Their Fantastic Results

"Elizabeth and her work have entirely changed my perspective on life and most importantly changed how I treat myself. She has taught me how to give myself the kindness and compassion I need, and helped me discover what true self-care feels like. By breaking my cycles of self-sabotage and self-abuse, I am now able to receive healthy love and support in all areas of my life. I am in a wonderfully loving and joyful marriage, and by reminding myself to put her tools deeper into practice this year, my career is the stuff my dreams are made of. I am often wary of guru-mentality and people who sell a bunch of bs. What I love about Elizabeth's work is there's a tangible, practical value and she walks her talk. She has helped me learn how to ask for what I need and trust my own wisdom. I can think of nothing more empowering and valuable than that." S.B. Actor

1-1 Healing: "Everything seemed too tough to deal with and I couldn't move forward. My issues around romance and career were making me act unkind and I felt overwhelmed. In The Happy Woman Academy the instant yet strong bond between the women is really special. After my first workshop I had a big break-through regarding trust and it has allowed me to feel more complete and be more patient, open, and honest in my relationships. My sister recommended I work with Elizabeth and I feel so great in her presence that I’ve continued to work with her privately. I feel like a new woman. Elizabeth is awesome! A.M. CEO, FL 

Group Programs: "I used to be very private & closed about my feelings prior to The Happy Woman Academy. Afterwards I'm able to connect openly and honestly with friends and family. This took about 3-6 months of participating in a training program. I'm also able to identify issues with a broader perspective now and I communicate more effectively without getting triggered. I keep advancing in my career too! I think the programs are so effective because of Elizabeth's calm but direct step by step approach and a great group of supportive women. So my advice is JUST DO IT! Go to a workshop and engage in the programs. The Happy Woman Academy Rocks!" C.C. Writer, CA

Pain Relief: "After many years of back pain, I'm finding a lot of relief from our sessions. Now whenever I start to feel pain, I'll do a couple of the moves Elizabeth taught me, and I'll readjust. It is so nice to NOT feel pain 24/7.

My body loves Elizabeth!"

K.D. Musican, Ohio

"My neck and shoulders used to be stiff all of the time. I hurt for so many years that I just thought I was stuck in pain forever. Since working with Elizabeth, I feel good most of the time. That chronic tension is gone - it's like living in a different body! I'm so grateful to Elizabeth for never hurting me like others have. Her hands are magic!"

R.S. Educator, CA 


"Elizabeth is a wonderful healer and I have been amazed on how she puts her finger (literally) on the exact area of your body and the precise energy where you need healing. She truly has a gift.  

The first time I’ve experienced it was at a circle, shortly after I’ve met Elizabeth for the first time –a few years ago. I was a skeptic. I was raised a skeptic. Elizabeth came behind me, pointed to one specific area of my upper back and just said “guilt”… and years of traumatic guilt burst into tears. It was a relief just to name that pain!  

The last time I experienced it with Elizabeth was at my last workshop with her, just a few months ago. I was sharing with the group and planned to share about something completely different. She walked towards me, touched my throat, and I felt the weight. She named it, “trust”, and again, that made such a healing and shaking impact in my heart and body…  

I admire and trust Elizabeth’s vision, healing skills, and deep compassion. I am a skeptic, and only work with her. I’ve met life coaches and “healers” that made me feel worse and judged.  

She is a real blessing in my life." V.Z. Actor

More Rave Reviews:

"Before coming to The Happy Woman Academy, I was having a hard time navigating a troubled relationship, unsure about where to live, unhealthy, challenged by tough situations at work, and felt I was lacking. The support of the programs gave me the tools to respond to ups and downs in a way that solved those issues and allows me to live in a way that prevents many future issues! I’m now at a job I love, happily married, and we just bought a new house!" ~ L.L. - Los Angeles, CA  

"I was experiencing a lack in my career, romantic life, and finances. I did not believe I was worthy to have what I truly desired nor did I know how it would be possible. After working with Elizabeth, I felt less attached to my issues and within a couple of months I could separate my issues from my Being and approach it all with more joy and more smarts. Through trying times at work and with job changes, I learned how to remain feminine and loving. For me The Happy Woman Academy is a place to seek strength, wisdom, skills, and love. I feel so safe there that I can open to share whatever is on my mind and remain vulnerable. This openness allows me to learn from other women as well as offer my heart to them. It’s a very powerful space that I believe all women yearn for in their lives. Be ready for change and ready to learn!" C.S. Educator

"I came to the HWA over a year ago because I knew I needed help with my career. I was afraid of asking for help because I didn’t want to be seen as annoying, demanding, or selfish. When I met with Elizabeth, I could sense a woman tapped into rivers that ran deep with understanding, maybe even deeper than I was familiar within myself. I had been coming from the stance that I must DO everything and MAKE things happen in my life, then one night, I let go for a moment and came to the realization that some situations I just can't do anything about it no matter how hard I want to. That was painfully humbling and intensely freeing. Even if you’re not at a crisis point, get in here. I had my first real life crisis after a year of being in HWA programs and I found myself equipped to handle it because I had practiced in milder climate." A.H. CFO

I joined The Happy Woman Academy last year because I felt an overall yearning for a community of like-minded people. Back then, thinking about my finances really stressed me out, but within a month I no longer felt overwhelmed or stressed about money! Elizabeth is a truly gifted healer and in her strength, wisdom, compassion, and integrity, she helps you feel empowered. ~ R.M. - Los Angeles, CA  

I joined a Happy Woman Academy Program a few months ago and I instantly started to feel more self-esteem and less willing to tolerate abuse from my partner. My chest even felt more lifted after the first circle! In the past two months my financial state has improved dramatically and my relationship with my daughter has also improved. Thank you for creating The Happy Woman Academy! ~ C.H. - Los Angeles, CA

After attending a workshop I felt less attached to my issues and I could separate my issues from my Being and approach it all with more joy and more smarts. The Happy Woman Academy has changed my life and I am so grateful for Elizabeth and the work she is doing. Now I am proud to be a woman - wise, sexy, and strong! ~ C.S. - Santa Monica, CA  

  Within a month of my first workshop I noticed I have a more positive and serene attitude. Sharing with others with total openness and trust is so important, and you can really feel the support and energy of the other women in the circle. I needed the support, love, and great energy of this community. GO! You'll meet wonderful people and will feel the positive energy of the circle if you're willing to share, help, and get help. Elizabeth is a great healer and a very positive person. I'm so happy I found you! Thank you! ~ V.Z - Hollywood, CA  

 Before working with Elizabeth I was shielding my heart, blocking the sensations so I wouldn't get hurt. After the workshop I started to see changes as I was able to allow the emotions out of me and share them with my partner, finally experiencing the warmth I had been missing. I think the healing was so effective because Elizabeth creates a safe space to open up and be vulnerable in a circle of non-judgmental and supportive women. Go! Now! Worst case you will meet some lovely women. Best case you will leave changed and strengthened. ~ T.W. - Los Angeles, CA  

  Before my first Happy Woman Academy workshop, I felt like I was on an endless treadmill with the same problems. My love life, home, career, emotions, and money issues were all impacting my life in a major way and no matter which way I turned, there they were. I figured out that I couldn’t do this alone anymore. I started seeing positive results after 1 workshop! Instead of staying stuck, I got unstuck. In less than I year I’ve opened myself to new positive possibilities and gained a soul freedom and strength that I never knew was in me. ~ S.T. - Venice, CA  

  Before joining The Happy Woman Academy program I was struggling to allow closeness in my life and it was putting a strain on my relationships. Within a few days after the first workshop I saw closeness show up in my friendships in a way I had not expected, they were so super supportive and I was able to let myself lean on them in my time of need. Since then I have been getting stronger and becoming more clear on what I want and I feel more open to Being in my life. ~ M.D. - Bev Hills, CA  

  I’ve been working with Elizabeth since before The Happy Woman Academy began. Unsatisfying dating partners and chronic pain were the two main issues in my life. My change tends to be slow and organic, yet I started seeing results in just a few days. Elizabeth is great at keeping things "clean", so women get to experience communication that is consistently and genuinely supportive. The other women in the circle are wise and can see things about yourself that you can't. Come to a workshop, that is the fastest, easiest way to find out if it is right for you. ~ E.L. - Los Angeles, CA  

  Before coming to my first HWA workshop I was struggling with my partner, career, and emotions and I felt a lot of stress, anger, frustration, and depression. I signed up with the HWA program less than a year ago and immediately noticed changes. Like I feel more relaxed and I now know how to deal with stress and can respond calmly to triggers that used to upset me. Recently, I was able to make an important decision based on what I felt was best for me, instead of putting someone else’s desires before my own wellbeing. My advice to you wonderful women out there who may be interested is: WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? Get your beautiful self into the The Happy Woman Academy and watch your life transform. I am so grateful to have this healing program & 1-1 healings in my life and want to thank Elizabeth for her commitment to helping women in need. I love you E!!! ~ M.K. - West Hollywood, CA
