Are you ready to live limitless?
What I know for sure is that
so much more is possible
than most of us think!
Hi, I'm Lisa
I’m a transformational coach, a traveler, an art medicine woman and an African safari retreat leader.
Through the years I’ve become an expert at reinventing myself.
I’ve lived in five foreign countries (Hungary, Slovakia, Canada, Korea and the United Arab Emirates).
I speak four languages. (Well, five, if you count Texan… ;)
I’ve successfully navigated numerous career metamorphoses. I’ve been:
a writer and manager at the US Agency for International Development in the embassy in Slovakia
the Home & Garden and special sections editor for a newspaper in South Texas
the co-author of more than 50 Lonely Planet travel guidebooks
an artist and creativity coach…
and now an African safari retreat leader, among other things….
In some ways, the journey to transformational coach held the most challenges.
Seven years ago I had just walked the final 100km of the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage route in Spain and had begun coach training with the Martha Beck institute.
Driving up Rte 1 on the California coast, I was heading to a MB coaching meet-and greet. To my right the sun was sinking over the sparkling water. To my left the golden rays highlighted wildflowers clinging to the cliffside. That’s when I got the call.
My very-healthy-seeming, 70-year-old mother had died suddenly of a heart attack.
I came unmoored. Nothing seemed to make sense.
After making my way home, I found myself shopping with my sister and teenage nieces for a something to wear to Mom’s funeral. I wasn’t really paying attention. I kept running my hand along the soft knit dress fabrics without really seeing.
Then on the display table in the center of the store, an inspirational hand towel caught my eye.
In big, calligraphied letters it read:
“Wild & Free”
And in that moment I knew…
….that’s what Mom was now - FREE.
It became clear:
if Mom could be free in an instant, so could I —
and she would want me to be.
*****
Mom was such an amazing woman: fun, feisty, creative, a natural leader… AND she also suffered with a good deal of anxiety.
If I was being honest with myself, despite all my big life changes, there were still ways I was holding myself back. A part of me was trying to keep me safe by playing small, by not putting myself out there fully.
I decided then I was done with that.
Over next few years I went within. I doubled down on the coach training and practice. I studied transformational tools, read spiritual texts.
As part of my healing journey, I learned to paint.
I connected with the wonder and magic of NATURE on several trips to Africa.
And I lived and grew through more personal challenges and family losses.
What I learned, what I now share with others,
is how to live a BIG, BOLD, BEAUTIFUL life.
Because when we LIVE LOVED, trusting in something higher and loving all our parts, we are LIMITLESS.
How big are you willing to let your life be?!
“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom”
I dream of a world where no one has to wait til they die to be free.
Where every person feels connected and loved enough to be the fullest and truest expression of themselves.
That’s why I help soul-centered humans take big, bold steps towards their dreams, even if they don’t know what those dreams are - yet!
Aren’t you tired of waiting?!
When we do this work, we are not only freeing ourselves, we are raising the vibration of the planet and helping free others.
Can you imagine if everyone stopped limiting themselves and started living fulfilled and flourishing lives RIGHT NOW.
I want that for the world. I want it for you, I want it for me, for my nieces…
I want it for my mom.
Are you ready to claim the BIG, BOLD, BEAUTIFUL life the Universe intends for you?!?
