Finding Lisa was a turning point in my life! I found her by chance on Instagram. She began asking questions like "Does this sound your life?" I felt like she was reading from a script about events in my life, toxic relationships I've been in, and emotions I've regularly felt. I began pouring over her IG and learning as much as I could.

I had been told by a therapist in the past that I was codependent, but I really didn't understand what that meant. I stopped seeing the therapist and began the most toxic relationship that I had ever been in that resulted in abuse and a broken engagement.

Fast forward a few years, and I had just been ghosted by another man that I had no business giving any of my time or energy. I was FED UP. I started to realize that I was the common denominator in all of these relationships. I learned from Lisa what narcissism is and everything started to make sense. I started to understand the energetics of the codependent and the narcissist and how my childhood programming affected by subconscious beliefs.

I participated in Lisa's 12-week Breakthrough Course, and I gained the clarity and wisdom to truly understand codependency. I got in touch with my inner child for the first time in my life and began the process of reparenting myself. I began to believe that I was enough, and that I didn't have to please others or deny my needs in order to be loved and accepted. I also started to change my expectations of others and realize that everyone is on their own journey.

After the course, I completely quit alcohol and marijuana. I no longer needed to run from or numb my anxiety and emotions. I realized that whatever I was running from would still be there after the high wore off. The only way to get through it was to allow it, feel it, and try to understand what it was there to show me or to teach me. I also started my own business, which is something that I don't think I would've ever attempted until I had the self-love to take a risk and know that I was worth all that I desired.

I feel like Lisa gave me the flashlight that illuminated my path. She put to words so many things that I had the experience of but no words for. She taught me exactly what was happening in my brain and how trauma and abandonment can shape beliefs and behavior. I am now the observer of my thoughts, and I'm building the healthy habits of mind and body that help me to live in peace and abundance. And I believe that it's possible.

Thank you, Lisa! I'm forever grateful for you and the work that you do in this world.
