What Lisa Has to Say About Leadership and Life Coaching
Leadership is truly a skill that one can hone and one that develops over time and with good, solid practice. Over the years Lisa has taught thousands of people during workshops, presentations and individual coaching. Her message is always one of empowerment, understanding (and overcoming) fears, embracing one’s vulnerability and harnessing these insights for good.
For most people developing a leadership style takes time and comes through experience, self-reflection and always with a clear understanding of one’s goals. Lisa works closely with clients as they develop their leadership skills. Clients emerge from coaching sessions with a strong sense of their leadership plan and what areas are opportunities for growth. In addition to these focused coaching experiences, Lisa offers larger group workshops designed to help teams or groups of people to develop their leadership skills.
One thrilling realization Lisa’s clients often have is that personal development is dynamic and with focus, practice, and empathetic guidance one can truly grow as a leader and as a person. Lisa takes great pleasure in guiding clients to these epiphanies and delights in seeing her clients find success in ways they originally did not think possible.

Here's what I hear from women, "No, he wasn't very nice to me, but I'm okay. I'm tough." "So no one listens to me at my house? I can handle it. It's no big deal." "There's no doubt he has dragged the divorce out and has been bullying me, but it's not that bad. I mean...
Selfless or Selfish: Are these our only two choices?
Here's what my clients tell me, "I need to be completely selfless, that's just who I am. Otherwise I'm being selfish and I'm not happy that way." They tell me this as if women have only two choices in life, to give up everything for others or to only care about...
