I Speak.

By engaging the audience with humor and improv, I share stories of hope and encouragement to help increase energy within people. Using activities, we focus on topics including communication, reducing the need from drama, mental health/brain health and finding ways to improve our service to others.

I Inspire.

Using reframing techniques, I help people live bigger. We minimize limiting beliefs and focus on creating moments of success. People walk away with plans to live 1% better everyday in order to SHINE.

“I had the opportunity to attend one of Lisa's many keynotes that she has delivered. Within seconds I was hooked. Lisa's ability to make people laugh and learn a valuable message at the same time, is a great gift. This approach keeps the audience engaged, excited and wanting more. I was able to take away concepts that I've incorporated into my own work, as a facilitator, with great success.”

From making hay
to “doing it afraid”.

The family farm

“Growing up on a family farm, I knew the importance of hard work.”

“always make hay when the sun shines”

“I found out early this was not my passion. I hated it. So it became my goal to find something that I loved. Something that would be fun, and climate controlled if possible.”

A teacher saw it first

“Patty Huber, my 6th-grade teacher started signing me up for speech contests and I quickly found myself in the world of communication.”

“doing it afraid”
“speak with passion”

Radio, then the people business

“In high school, my first job was in radio and I was on the air sharing fun clips of things that were going on in the world.”

“I wanted to make people laugh and tune in and always wonder what I was going to say next.”

“Waitressing, Sales, Customer Service at Walt Disney World, all gave me patience and the ability to ask questions.”

The line I keep coming back to

“I want work to be FUN. I want people to go home at the end of the day feeling like they have achieved something. We all have a need for achievement and affiliation. Why not work with happy people who have a need for accomplishment.”
