Hi there!
Iām Lisa.
I’m a mom, entrepreneur and coach.
I help midlife entrepreneurs create clarity
where there was confusion, skyrocket their
confidence, bring balance into their lives
and build thriving businesses.
So why did I become a coach?
A little backstory:
It’s inevitable during a women's midlife years that she'll experience certain transitions spread out over time.
Mine occurred in the form of one long back to back wave. While I was raising my pre-teen daughter, I started a new business and began the process of a divorce. Shortly thereafter my mother was diagnosed with dementia. When all of the stress caught up with me, I developed high blood pressure and experienced two painful diverticulitis attacks. Now, while all that madness was going on, I was in menopause. When my menopause moments came to an end, the front of my hair fell out and I was diagnosed with frontal fibrosing alopecia. Which is why I’m always wearing a headband, scarf or wig (unless I shave my head again then you’ll see me bald). There were more transitional moments, but I’m saving those for the book I’m writing.
I tell you these things not as a sob story, but to share the beginning of my meditation and coaching journey.
Stress and overwhelm stopped me in my tracks. Meditation and working with a personal development coach allowed me to regroup, refocus and rediscover what was truly important to me. It can be difficult to maneuver through your midlife years. You're trying to take care of everything and everyone and you can easily lose yourself and your spark along the way. I know.
I’ve been there. But I learned you don’t have to stay there. That is why I became a coach.
To help other midlife women rise up and live their best heart-centered lives.
My coaching process involves a clarity check-in, mindset skill development, meditation, and self-care commitment. These tools provide a foundation for creating a balanced life and successfully building and growing a thriving business.
