1. Breaking Free from People-Pleasing & Redesigning Her Schedule (04:15)
Lisa shares how she realized that her jam-packed, client-first schedule was draining her energy and stifling her creativity.
“We don’t realize how much freedom we truly have.”
✅ When decisions are based on obligation, you lose power. Designing your day around your energy is the first act of reclaiming yourself.
2. Dismantling Old Beliefs Through Polarity and Somatic Work (07:48)
Lisa fought through perfectionism and learned that she could hold two truths at once. Through deep polarity work and somatic release, she reprogrammed patterns rooted in childhood.
“I thought it had to be one way. I didn’t know I could choose again.”
✅ When stuck patterns feel logical, they often aren’t. Physical release opens the door to emotional transformation faster than overthinking ever could.
3. Experimenting With Fun, Art & Solo Travel to Reignite Joy (20:32)
Lisa shares how solo travel, watercolor painting, and even doodling helped her reconnect with joy and creativity outside of productivity.
“My soul was screaming for me to do art… not scroll my phone.”
✅ Creativity is not a luxury—it’s a lifeline. Playful experimentation leads to identity expansion and unexpected breakthroughs.
