Better Decisions Make Your Business More Resilient

I help visionary leaders (and their teams) create more resilient businesses by homing in on One Move That Matters™ for your organization.

Focusing on the three forces that shape every human system, we identify the decisions you've been circling and make them so that they stick.

Resilience is about more than risk

In business, the term "resilience" has people looking at what happens AFTER a crisis. 

How do you bounce back? How do you thrive on the other side?

Me? I'd rather be a little more proactive and look at what's going on before the crisis hits.

That's where I do my best work: the decision layer of organizational resilience.

Together, we can create a path forward that helps you build a more resilient business without compromising your integrity or safety. I help you pressure-test your decisions before pressure tests your business.

I've been on the payroll (with signed NDA's) for some pretty famous best-selling authors, music superstars, performing artists, and big idea entrepreneurs that want their message to reach more Raving Fans in ways that work for how they are wired to work.

That last part's important. Because if success means trying to be someone you're not, then why bother?

Strategy and capacity. You need both in order to find the success you're craving. If you've got a great strategy, but no capacity to implement it, you'll feel resentful and maybe burn it all down before you break through. If you've got capacity, but your strategy sucks, you'll just keep spinning on the hamster wheel of hustle: busy, but not really going anywhere.

And when you're neurodivergent, multiply marginalized, or dealing with other capacity constraints, it sometimes doesn't feel safe to step into your spotlight (and maybe it's really NOT safe!). So, it's even MORE important to have a roadmap that can get you where you want to be in ways that work for your unique situation.

Lots o' Love From Around The Interwebs

I was about to just give up . . .

“Lisa can help you find the right fit for you, in terms of moving forward in your business. When I started working with her, I was about to just give up and move to Southeast Asia, and I thought that this whole business thing was just bullshit, and I just needed to stop. “She was able to help me get my priorities in line and start being a CEO and not just a worker. In the course of the time that we’ve worked together, I have more than doubled my business. I made more in February than I did in all of the previous year. And she has given me so much motivation and support, and I always feel like my work with her helps me be so much more effective, and better at being the leader, the coach, and the therapist that I want to be.“

'I couldn’t have done it without you' feels like an understatement.

Thank you for the help during the insanity of the launch of my podcast. If it wasn’t for you, I know my launch wouldn’t have been successful. Thanks to your support, the show not only stayed in New & Noteworthy for all 3 categories PLUS all of iTunes, it then spent another 8 weeks in “What’s Hot”. The promotions helped me gain social followers, grew my email subscribers, and helped me enjoy the launch process more. To say 'I couldn’t have done it without you' feels like an understatement.

More money than ever... and a life built around what's important to me

One of Lisa’s superpowers (among many) is seeing greatness in people, even when they can’t see it in themselves. Her X-Ray vision and expert guidance has helped me own the truth of who I am and what I’m able to accomplish. Since we started working together, I’ve made more money than I ever have in business for myself. And I’m living a life built around what’s most important to me. That’s the good stuff right there. Lisa, you rock. Thanks for everything. You’ve shown this weirdo it’s ok to be weird and still make a profit.

You can trust Lisa

Here’s what I want to say about Lisa: She’s awesome. She has a tremendous heart and sense of caring, that comes out in wanting to roll up her sleeves and get things done. She also has a sophisticated, fun, open-hearted sense of marketing, with a lot of experience behind her. She gets the vision. She gets strategy. She gets the caring and love in taking care of the itty-bitty details…you can trust her…to care for your heart and your business.

Instant understanding of what I needed

Lisa's strength lies in spontaneously and accurately seeing a project (whether hers or someone else's) from a bigger picture view and then focusing like a laser beam on exactly what and how to improve or advance that project. The first time I spoke with Lisa regarding a project I was working on, I was struck by her instant understanding of what I needed and her intuitive sense of which direction I should move in. She is a master interviewer and can spontaneously personalize another's message, using her own experiences to make whatever someone else is sharing instantly more relatable to her audience. In short, Lisa is a brainstorming genius and brings a sharp, creative and spontaneous element to whomever she's coaching. I highly recommend you work with Lisa if you've hit a wall and need to move your ideas forward in new and creative ways.

"Lisa is one of those people you just love from the first minute you talk to her. She reaches to your level, where ever that may be, and she knows just the right questions to ask to help you become THE BEST at whatever it is YOU want to achieve. She challenges you without being extreme or unrealistic; but, most of all, she knows your strengths and your potential and she genuinely knows how to bring that out in you — it’s actually pretty amazing how she does that! “I’ve coached one-on-one with Lisa, as well as having hired her to do some training for my team and I can tell you that we all give her glowing reviews! It’s so nice to work with someone who has been where you are and has proven themselves!”
