"...To say that it was one of the best things I’ve done is an understatement! Lisa taught us about the five different forms of self-care and had us reflect on what parts we are good at and what parts we are bad at. By doing this, we had to really think about what was going on and how we can improve the areas we may be struggling with. Lisa even gave us specific actions we can take weekly to improve on each category, and I plan to take that with me throughout this month! If you are looking to learn more about how to improve yourself, this workshop is for you."

"...Our topic for the event was Work/Life/Balance. Lisa is a skilled presenter. She combines personal stories, evidence-based practices, and has a key understanding of reading an audience and encouraging participation. Her presentations include large group discussion, break out groups, and time for personal reflection. Each time I leave a conference or event where Lisa is a keynote, I feel balance, calmness, and a sense of renewal."

"From start to finish working with Lisa was a great experience. Lisa provided a phenomenal, hands-on presentation for the Lake Huron Michigan Health Information Management Association. She inspired our Health Information professionals with information on How Self Confidence and Wellbeing affects Yourself and Your Community. The tools she provided inspired us all. We have received positive feedback from our conference attendees regarding Lisa’s presentation. I highly recommend listening to Lisa speak when you get the chance. Her enthusiasm alone will brighten your day. "

"The self-love workshop led by Lisa was truly transformative for me in multiple ways. One of the things that impressed me the most was how she made a conscious effort to create a safe space for us to connect with ourselves and be present at the moment. What stood out to me the most was Lisa's ability to help me identify my personal needs as an individual to become the best version of myself. Her experience and expertise shone through as she provided practical advice and tools that I could apply in my daily life. I was pleasantly surprised by the unexpected insights I gained from her guidance!"

“Lisa presented a webinar to our The National Women in Roofing group. Working with Lisa was a breath of fresh air. She was prompt in responding and turning in necessary material for the webinar. While presenting Lisa was professional, energetic and provided pertinent learning for the group. Since the webinar, I have received rave reviews from the National Women in Roofing teams and cannot wait to work with Lisa again in the future!”
Erica FarverSenior Product Manager, Duro-Last Roofing, Inc
"What a refreshingly positive presentation our monthly women’s group had from Lisa. In a time of so much sadness and uncertainty in the world, Lisa helped our group set individual intentions of self-focus for our hour together. We left with tools to help us take as little as two minutes to reset, give ourselves positive affirmations, and remind ourselves in the future that we are enough."
