How I got here…

I am a five-time certified Coach with 20 years of general coaching and 10 years of Divorce Coaching experience.

I ran my own Yoga and coaching business for almost two decades, with a very broad client list - I’ve coached with Stanford University, taught rock stars to meditate, and led mothers from pregnancy to birth, to teaching that same kid yoga when they are old enough to walk.

My actual Divorce seemed relatively simple at the time because I just said yes to whatever my ex wanted. I just wanted it to be over. This made me vulnerable for the following decade of custody hearings and financial obliteration.

I became a mother at 30 and when my son was 2 I filed for divorce not knowing what was to come. I naively thought the divorce would be the end of it but no - over the next 10+ years, I was on high alert, just bracing for the next custody hearing.

I wish I'd had a divorce coach by my side that whole time; With what I know now, I could have massively reduced the impact emotionally, financially, psychologically, and logistically for all of us.

I didn’t know how to safeguard my future because I didn’t have anyone guiding me. I wanted out and I left with far less than I was owed financially and felt powerless to object to the child custody arrangements. The lawyers just helped with the paperwork and my lovely friends were there for me emotionally of course, but weren’t able to help with strategy. I needed someone like me, now, to give me the knowledge and support I needed!

I did however have over two decades of experience in Eastern energetic practices, somatic work, and coaching tools and I used them all to survive during those times.

I am perfectly placed to help you avoid the pitfalls of your process having spent years educating myself on how to avoid these messes.

You can be emotionally regulated enough to make solid decisions and maybe even avoid carrying the trauma around for a lifetime.

I live with my teenage son and sweet puppy in Boulder, Colorado, and see clients from all over the world.

I needed someone like me when I was going through this.

I can be that for you now.

"I've been through a lot of self-help programs, but this one takes the cake. Honestly, I just thought I needed some solid advice on getting through my divorce, which is why I turned to Lisa. I wanted strategy, and she gave me that, but I got so much more."

A personal note…

Many years ago I was in an abusive relationship that ticked all five of the official areas of abuse - physical, emotional, sexual, financial, and psychological. I was diagnosed with Battered Partner Syndrome and CPTSD.

I have walked the path you might be on and I know how much it takes to heal and rebuild your confidence, trust, and standards for yourself. It’s ongoing work.

After my divorce I found ways to start again as a single parent with a renewed purpose to give my child the chance to thrive and live with joy while modeling for him what self-love and self-care really look like.

I’m in a practice to see life through the lens of informed optimism - making a case for good. It’s not ignorant naivety or spiritual bypassing but a decision to see beauty, even when things really truly suck. It’s also a solid neuroscience thing - making those new neural pathways stick!

At the very least we can build resilience so when the next sucky thing happens we have the tenacity and perspective to know we will still laugh and experience happiness on the other side.

Here’s to finding ease and grace in the simplest of places,

  • “My ex was dragging me through court, I was drowning in legal fees and felt totally beaten down. Working with Lisa has saved me months of back and forth and tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees. I just wish I'd started coaching earlier".

    Emma - 38

  • "Having Lisa's support is like having a friend who is also an expert in the subject matter - the best of both worlds. She gave me expert advice on the paperwork and also showed me how to build my emotional strength. I'm now ready to embrace my next chapter".

    Samantha - 57

  • "Lisa guided me through the legal mess, while also being a pillar of emotional support. Now, I have a sense of purpose and clarity. Anyone facing the tumult of divorce would be fortunate to have Lisa by their side".

    Christina - 35

  • "My sessions with Lisa changed everything. With her strategic guidance, I avoided a lot of unnecessary legal fees, and we found a smoother, child-focused approach. Lisa's coaching prioritized our children’s well-being, something I will always be grateful for".

    Samantha - 42

  • "I really thought my life was over when my ex husband asked for a separation. Lisa took me through her program and now I have a new career, I'm financially empowered and I know what I'm looking for in my next relationship whenever that will be".

    Linda - 46

  • "I had been divorced for 3 years when I met Lisa and we worked through her program. I didn't see just how much my confidence, trust and judgement had been destroyed in my marriage. I was carrying so much anger and fear. Lisa helped me get free and move on with my life. I'm immensely grateful".
