Become the Boss of Your Loss

You know that returning to work after a significant loss isn't just challenging - it can feel impossible. The exhaustion that hits before you even start your day. The mistakes that keep happening. The sick days that pile up. The overwhelming feeling that you're falling further behind.

You're not alone in this struggle.

Many professionals are trying to maintain their work performance while processing grief, and it's taking a toll on their careers, health, and wellbeing.

  • You wake up exhausted with no energy at the beginning of every day

  • You can't focus at work because grief keeps intruding on your thoughts

  • You're missing work and now have to double down to catch up

  • You find yourself triggered about your loss when you should be focusing on work

  • You don't have the time or energy to take care of yourself

  • You're afraid to ask for help at work

Here's What I Know For Sure

You don't need to wait until your grief is "over" to perform well at work.

Grief is not governed by a time clock, and work doesn't wait for us to recover. The good news? You can learn to work WHILE grieving, not just AFTER.

WORKSHOPS

Here’s What My Clients Are Saying

  • Brittany L.

    Lisa was very informative and helped me really understand by including real life situations into her lessons. Not only did she provide a way for me to see that my every day lifestyle just needed slight changes, she also had an amazing way to show me how my mental standpoint affected the outcome as well. Even after our weekly meetings, Lisa would check in every once in a while.

    Since following her suggestions, I feel more energized, and have better peace of mind. I’ve noticed feeling a little bit happier, especially after doing these activities. I feel like I am better ready for the day, or better ready to do a task. I have much more clarity, which is necessary to get my job done.

    Not only is she super informative, and very knowledgeable, but she is like a friend who truly cares about my success. Although she is incredibly professional, I did not feel like I was under a spotlight while in my sessions with her.

  • Beverly M.

    Lisa is a very caring person and she really listened to me.  She is filled with grace and patience.  I feel blessed that Lisa was very helpful for me to think about and learn a new way of living.   I often say Rome Was not built in a week.  This was a process for me.  She was so helpful to me in these twelve lessons, and I feel blessed to have had this time of learning with her.

  • Eugene G.

    Lisa helped me set realistic goals, measure the outcomes/progress, and use that information to continuously update/advance the plan.  Lisa is informative, and she is eager to share methods for me to improve myself. We made continuous progress, and she was always punctual and sensitive to my scheduling needs. I would I recommend her program and I feel that any person may benefit from the program for guidance in the right directions, physically and emotionally.
