Divorce happens. People break up. But how you move through that process and the years following a divorce/break-up is your choice. Having kids is an adult thing and getting married is too. The worst thing about divorce is that one person makes a choice that effects everyone in the family and those other people have no choice but to deal with it. I am here to help you find a way to do divorce well and not make your kids pay the price for your sh*t. Let them be kids and show them an example of kindness and gratitude. That brings me to the subject of my new gratitude journals! I give you a journal prompt at the end of this episode and then a challenge to email me... hang out till the end because there is a surprise waiting for you!

Don't we all love being wrong? I know I do. So, what's in a good apology? How can we put our own ego aside, be humble, and say those two words -- I'm sorry.

Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself. The only person you hurt by holding on to past hurts is yourself. I watched my mother cling to those hurts and not forgive and the person she hurt the most was herself but it also effected her relationships. Her unwillingness to forgive turned into bitterness which was so sad to see, in the end. Bitterness turns into hate and the cycle just repeats. We must forgive in order to move on from the past and have a more fulfilling future with better relationships with those around us. Who have you not forgiven? Give yourself this gift and watch things change for you. 

I have been putting off cleaning something out... my inbox! The more I put it off, the less I want to look at it. It makes me think of the other clutter in our lives. Real clutter and figurative clutter alike. I hope this inspires you to take a look at what you can de-clutter in order to live your best life. Also, the first "real" Get Real with Lisa full episode drops in less than a week and I am so excited! Thanks for getting real with me!

We're almost there! The first FULL episode of Get Real with Lisa is coming up on June 1! This is another minisode and it's about the art of saying, "no". I wish I learned it earlier but it's never too late. And, by the way, you honor others by being authentic and real with them and saying no when you mean no. Sometimes saying yes just creates resentment and, let's be real, drama (that we kinda like) in our lives. Say yes when you REALLY mean YES! And learn how to say no when you really mean NO! 

What is holding you back from taking a step forward and doing that thing you dream of doing? You are capable and you can do it. You just need to open the door and step through. In this episode, I tell you about my navy blue painted floor, a conversation with a friend that encouraged me to do my dreams, and how we can all be brave and take a step forward into the life we want to live. Find this podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Play and find me on IG @getrealwithlisa Have a dreamy great day!

This is me... Lisa! This little trailer is just a tidbit about me, why I am doing this podcast, and what you can look forward to in future episodes. I even added a little music. How cool is that? Join me on this journey of learning about life, relationships, people and purpose. Let's get real together!
