What happens when you see your kids as a mirror to yourself.

In episode 99 Lisa goes deeper down the rabbit hole of the stories that have shaped your identity and how you can use your children to identify your own blindspots. Parents often get caught in the trap of being focused on shaping their children without realizing that they are here to also shape you. Not by simply shaping you into what it means to be a parent but also by giving you the opportunity to look more deeply at the stories and beliefs you hold that are also playing out in your children.
Todays episode is meant to support you asking better questions of yourself so you can continue to know yourself better and free yourself from the identities that have been holding you back from living your most extraordinary life.

How well do you think you know yourself?

In episode 98 Lisa shares her journey of releasing old judgements and how she measured herself against others to create an unrealistic idea of who she thought she should be. We all tell ourselves stories about who we think we are, what we believe we should be able to do, and to make it worse when we believe these stories we block ourselves from knowing and understand the truth of our brilliance.
Listen to the episode and then begin to gather your own data to determine how you can honor your strengths and your weakness and how to see the value in both. Nothing defines you but when you know yourself better and stop making the data mean anything you'll be able to harness your true power and potential.

Are you worth it?

In episode 97 Lisa jumps into the conversation about women and money. Have you considered what it looks like when you want to invest in yourself? Maybe it's a new outfit or maybe it's a larger investment like 1:1 coaching or joining a program such as Jim Fortins Transformational Coaching Program. Do you ask permission from your partner have to try to convince them? Or do you have an empowered conversation and advocate for yourself? Do you feel empowered about your relationship with your partner and money or do you feel like everything you want is outside of your control?
Lisa has gone from nearly 6 figures in debt (and running the cycle of debt on and off over 20 years) to running a successful coaching practice that continues to grow and generate multiple 6 figures because of her commitment to transforming her relationship with money.

In episode 95 Lisa welcomes her guest Joan Marie from www.joanmarieart.com to share her journey of letting go so she could live her purpose. Joan is the creator of an amazing piece of artwork gifted to Lisa by Jill Stevens back in April of 2020 which helped transform how she saw herself. In this conversation, Joan shares why you can't think your way to results and how pictures are the language of the subconscious mind. Joan also talks about how she went from working hard for her gift to owning her ability to create from her intuition and how important it was for her to relax and let go in order to create the extraordinary artwork she is known for today.
