In this deeply personal episode, Lisa takes you behind the scenes of her second Camino walk—and the powerful reminder that true transformation starts with one simple, uncomfortable truth: No one is coming to save you. You have to choose yourself.

Lisa shares how the contrast between last year’s torrential, miserable walk and this year’s lighter, more connected experience reflects the deeper work she’s done to heal, let go, and lead herself.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or trapped in your own patterns, this episode will remind you: Change is possible—but only when you decide to choose it.

 

What You’ll Hear In This Episode:

  • How last year’s dark, rainy Camino mirrored Lisa’s internal struggles—and why this year felt completely different
  • The uncomfortable (but freeing) truth about choosing change for yourself
  • Why healing and letting go isn’t a one-time event—it’s a layered process that requires courage and patience
  • How your external world often reflects your internal state—and how to shift both
  • The role of rest, nervous system regulation, and community in sustainable growth
  • How to measure your progress without falling into perfectionism or self-judgment
  • Lisa’s invitation to the women who know they’re ready for more

You’re not stuck. You’re not broken. But you do have a choice. The question is: Are you ready to make it?

 

Ready to Choose Yourself? Lisa’s exclusive Tulum Retreat + 12-Month Private Coaching Experience is for the driven, high-achieving woman who’s quietly wondering: “When is it my turn?”

 This isn’t another retreat—it’s a full year of support, nervous system work, and deep, identity-level coaching, culminating in a transformational week in Tulum.

 There are only a few spots left for the woman who knows she’s ready to stop outsourcing her fulfillment and start leading herself differently.
