In this Episode: I'm thrilled to share that Lisa Genova, the New York Times Bestselling Author of Still Alice, is today’s guest. When I learned of Lisa’s work and life mission I knew I had to have her on the show. She epitomizes what is possible when you listen to your internal voice and have the courage to pursue what’s in your heart. Lisa will tell you that she is doing her “soul’s work” and living a life of purpose by bringing empathy and understanding to neurological disorders people don't like to think about. Her book “Still Alice” became a New York Times best-seller and was turned into a major motion picture. However, before finding her purpose, Lisa was on a very different path. A Harvard trained Ph.D. in neuroscience, Lisa found herself at a crossroads when her first marriage ended in divorce. It was in this moment of uncertainty that she found the courage to leave the familiar for a life as a writer. If you are a writer or want to be one, would like to find your purpose, and/or enjoy stories of how dreams become reality, then you will love today’s episode.
