About me
Lisa has lost too many loved ones and friends to cancer and preventable chronic diseases.
She has also witnessed miraculous recoveries with simple dietary and lifestyle change.
Lisa is passionate about inspiring, educating and empowering individuals and corporations to become the CEO of their lives and to create cultures of wellness.
Lisa is a Speaker, Writer, Coach Certified in Functional Medicine and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition, Retired RN, President of a Women Owned Small Business, Entrepreneur, and former Sales and Business Development Manager.
As Mother of 4 adult children and 2 grandchildren. Lisa understands the demands and challenges of supporting multiple roles and responsibilities.
Today, Lisa takes Carpe Diem, Seize the Day, literally by striving to live her best life. When she is not speaking, coaching or teaching yoga, you can find her with family and friends, on the tennis or pickleball court, or on her bicycle. She is passionate about public speaking and helping others live younger longer.
After helping her daughter through her cancer diagnosis, Lisa wrote Savvy Secrets, Eat, Think, and Thrive, Seven Steps to Optimal Health. This is a do it yourself guide full of simple solutions and savvy secrets. Lisa was able to put her high blood pressure and autoimmune disease into remission. She even healed her eyesight and was able to ditch her bifocals and release the excess weight she thought she would have for life.
If she can do this, so can you! Optimal Health is not complicated. You have more power than you’ve been led to believe.
What do you do and why do you do it?
I’ve lost too many friends and loved ones to cancer and chronic disease that is preventable. I want to change this trajectory for my children and grandchildren.
What changed for you after age 50?
My 28 year old daughter was diagnosed with the same cancer that took a 19 year old boyfriend and her grandmother and they wanted to use the same treatment that didn’t work 35 years earlier. I knew we had to do something differently.
What would you tell the 20 or 30-year-old YOU?
Carpe Diem. Seize the Day, you only have this day and this moment to live life to its fullest
What do you think you’ll tell yourself in retrospect at the end of your life?
What took you so long?
What impact do you think increased visibility can have on your business?
Make a bigger difference in the world.
Who or what inspires you and why?
All of my clients inspire me with their wisdom and courage.
Something else I’d like to share
I feel and look better today than I did twenty years ago and so can you. Age is just a number. I know people who are 30 years old and act like they are 70. I know 70 year olds who act like they are 30. Which do you want to be? Your choices today matter and will determine who you become.
