    _19A3725-Edit


    Hi again. I’m Lisa, a good old fashioned life coach. I’ve been life coaching men and women since the mid 90’s and before that, I was a psychotherapist. Being old fashioned simply means that when I started coaching, there may have been a handful of coaches in the entire world. In my town, I met two.

    Being a good old fashioned life coach meant that when I started, there just weren’t any niches. With a handful of coaches, we simply did “life coaching.” That was unique and innovative enough.

    DO YOU WANT TO GROW?

    As a pioneer, I have had the opportunity to help all kinds of people. I have helped women in high executive positions, business owners, people in the health care industry, leaders in IT and Aerospace, full-time moms, yoga teachers, artists, performers, holistic practitioners: all things bright and beautiful. Each and every person had a story. And each and every person wanted to write a new one, a better one, one that would feel right and good and true to who they really were.

    Many were feeling lost in some way and they were unsure of their next steps. Most of all, they were trying to figure it all out themselves. Can you relate?

    I sure can. In my youth, I was an ambitious, successful musician working in Toronto, New York City, and Los Angeles. It was “great” right? Uh…Not really. Deep down, I was miserable. I had lost my love for my career. I wasn’t really sure who I was any more. I had lost myself chasing a dream that didn’t fit anymore. I felt empty inside.

    From the outside looking in, my life seemed pretty great. I wrote songs, sang background on people’s albums (Art Garfunkel, Bette Midler), and played in lots of clubs and concerts.  Just me and my guitar. But secretly I knew something wasn’t quite right. I was not living my best life. Something was missing. And you know what that was? It was ME. 

     

    I WAS MISSING! 

     

    One night in NYC, I had a moment of clarity where I really heard my inner voice speak to me. I was alone, meditating, trying to find some answers when just like that, I made a decision. I was going to quit music, go back to my hometown, get a job, go to the dentist (it had been too long) and enrol in University. I heard that inner voice loud and clear. It was confirming something I knew deep inside but couldn’t admit to; music wasn’t right for me anymore. And so, I went home and did what my inner voice told me to do. 

    BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!

    Of course, I didn’t find myself right away. It took some time, some self-reflection and more listening to my inner voice. In university, I studied Film Studies and Literature until my third year when I found Religious Studies and Psychology. Or maybe they found me!

    Those courses were a turning point. They brought together my life long passion for personal growth and spirituality. I ended up majoring in both. I loved it so much I went to Graduate School for a Master’s degree in Counselling Psychology. I wrote my final thesis on Spiritual Surrender. I was definitely finding myself. And although I worked for many years as a psychotherapist, I knew I wasn’t home quite yet.

    ENTER LIFE COACHING

    One day, as by magic, a counselling client handed me a magazine and said, “Did you know. This is what you do?” The magazine was The East West Journal (now The Yoga Journal) with a cover story about Life Coach Cheryl Richardson. This was 1996. I had never heard of Life Coaching. But when I read those words on that cover, well, talk about a light bulb moment… I knew I had found myself. I had found my people. I knew instantly what my next steps were going to be. 

     

    I BECAME A LIFE COACH!

    WHICH BRINGS ME TO YOU

     

       Are you:

    Living out of the longing of your soul?  

    Wanting to start a business or wellness practice? 

    Feeling stuck and struggling to take action on your goals and dreams?

    Lacking confidence and clarity about what’s next?

    Trying to break from the 9-5?

    Looking for work that fulfills you?

    Afraid you aren’t good enough or capable of getting your coaching, healing or creative business going? 

     

      Do you want to: 

    Feel confident and clear about what’s next?

    Develop enough self-discipline and commitment to achieve your goals and dreams?

    Let go of the limiting beliefs that tell you you aren’t good enough or you’re an imposter?

    Create a roadmap to your success?

    Master your mindset so you can stay motivated and moving forward toward your dream?

     

    MOST IMPORTANTLY

     

    Are you ready to: 

    Change!!!!

    Write a new story?

    Finally do what you were meant to do in this world?

    I CAN HELP

    Since 1990, I have helped women succeed. I understand the personal growth needed to fulfill a big goal or dream.

    Imagine having someone who is there to:

    1. Help you find clarity.
    2. Give you tools and strategies to get unstuck.
    3. Help you overcome the Mindset blocks that keep you from feeling confident and achieving your goals.
    4. Hold a vision of you in your full expression of success so you can see it too even when it’s hard, and encourage you to keep going. 
    5. Help you, challenge you, support you and celebrate you to achieve your highest vision for yourself and your work.

    This is what coaching with me can do for you.

    So happy I made the decision to focus on my personal development all those years ago. My work with Lisa has helped me to grow and step into my power. Specifically, to come back to myself. I loved life coaching so much that I am now a Spiritual Coach myself. Lisa just knows what to ask. Her wisdom and intuitive ability to understand me at a deep level made me feel truly seen and heard. Working with Lisa was life-changing.

    My Journey with Lisa began in 2010. I was going through a major transition and challenge in my Life, and so I decided to invest in myself. I hired Lisa. I had read her book, Becoming a Mother on Fire. It completely resonated with me. Lisa helped me understand my true worth and connect to my inner wisdom.  My perception and mindset started to change and more and more, I loved who I was -  far from perfect but imperfectly perfect in all my flaws. I valued our time together so much that 10 years later, I'm still working with Lisa on this journey I call my Life's work.  So Much gratitude.

    Lisa’s women’s coaching group completely changed my life.  When I joined her group, I was stuck in a lifeless marriage and a stressful job. Through her spiritual guidance, her kind and direct questions and bringing useful coaching tools and intuition to our coaching group, I found the purpose and the bravery to make decisions towards a happier and more fulfilled life.  Lisa is truly a blessing to the world - her gift of faith, of self observation and of trusting her own power shines a light for all of us.  I have no hesitation in recommending Lisa to help anyone who wishes to transform their life for the better.

    ✨ When you can’t control life, life can feel o ✨ When you can’t control life, life can feel overwhelming. 

Dealing with overwhelm isn't simply about changing your life, it’s really all about letting go of trying to control your life. 

If you sit back and reflect quietly, you will realize that it is impossible to control life. 

The universe is expanding, evolving and doing its thing without any input from you. 

When we fight against these forces by demanding certain outcomes, or time lines or any “how it’s supposed to be” demands, we will be struggling with the energies that create worlds. Really? Are we trying to be Super Heroes? It’s a no win situation. 

Plus, our struggles create even more stress. Stress shuts down your thinking brain. And you are left feeling continuously overwhelmed and unable to figure out how to get out of this mess. It’s a vicious cycle. 
 
Bottom line, we try to control things to feel safe. And so, how can you work on feeling safe without trying to control everything? Is it building more faith? Is it learning to let go of small things and watching the outcomes. Is it all out surrender? 

Personally, I’m in the surrender camp!

What about you?

    ✨ Is this you? You have a very intense full ti ✨ Is this you? 

You have a very intense full time job and you’re working to get your new business off the ground?

All you are feeling is overwhelmed and discouraged because you cannot make the business happen as fast as you would like?

Almost all the new life coaches, yoga teachers and healers that I work with come up against feelings of overwhelm more than once in their quest to grow their business. And it’s hard, particularly because their new business is a real passion project. 

And to be frank, I’ve been there too. Plenty of times. Especially when I spend all my time listening, studying, and watching all the experts telling me what I “must” do to be successful. I must have a choir of voices in my head all “yelling” at me. 

And then, of course, I shut down. Who wouldn’t? It’s a normal response to overwhelm. 

So, how to move beyond that state? 

As odd as it sounds, overwhelm is less about everything that is going on in your life and more about trying to control everything that is going on in your life. 

When you can’t control life, life can feel overwhelming. 

And so, it isn’t simply about changing your life, it’s really all about letting go of trying to control it.
