When Motivaton and willpower fail... 

We explore  the intricate relationship between trauma, motivation, willpower, and our sense of worth and belonging.

Drawing from her personal journey and professional experience as a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and Trauma Survivor, Lisa discusses how our nervous system and unresolved wounds impact our behavior, motivation, and ability to achieve our goals.

She emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, connecting with our bodies, and redefining our perception of ourselves and others to heal from past traumas. Through a blend of personal anecdotes, psychological insights, and practical advice, Lisa encourages listeners to embrace their emotions and past experiences as a path to self-discovery and transformation, highlighting the pivotal role of nurturing a compassionate relationship with oneself and others for a fulfilling life.
