YouTube Tapping Video: “Staying on Your Side of the Street Emotionally”
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.
