About 4 years ago I walked out of a bad marriage, with almost nothing to my name, very little money, my children and a jar of peanut butter. With only a promise of a new job that was gonna pay me less, I cried, like you Lisa all the way on the flight to my new job. For a month and a half I only had energy to go to work, teach and come back to my small flat with only a bed and cry and pray and cry some more. I ate my peanut butter sandwiches and tea and cried. Until one day, I felt an sense of overwhelming peace engulf me. That day, I knew I was ready to go to court and finalise my divorce. Now I've leant that, when things go wrong, it's good to retreat. I take time out for myself and honour myself in ways that resonate with my soul. Last year after two surgeries on my leg and 8 months inflamation, swelling, drugs and injections, I booked myself on a flight to Thailand and stayed at a resort on the beach and embarked on a week of self Love, reflection, meditation, silence and prayer. When I came back, my leg had healed. I no longer need the drugs and no more swelling.
Your story inspires me, I am walking in similar shoes with a bad marriage and having to leave with no real plan of what next except peace from abuse and betrayal.
Thubelihle Msweli YANA MY BROTHER YOU ARE NOT ALONE. I am in Bali retreating my self and getting meditation done. Getting back up to conquer... I love this community because I thought I was alone. Love you soul brother

I left work early today broken and depressed. I felt like I was too close to my breaking point only to hear my phone make a noise notifying me that I had a message, the message was this video. My aha moment "Sometimes you unconsciously stay frozen." I seriously had to pause and evaluate how I was reacting to my current situation. It's then I realised I wasn't solving shit by freaking out instead I was making it worse. I'm going to sit down and prepare my battle plan for success because no one but me can do this for me. Thank you for sharing your story with us Lisa.
Enricka - you speak the truth!! What a POWERFUL awareness you have! It's like what we teach at our Motivating the Teen Spirit events for our youth. We tell them to press pause on the negative chatter and press PLAY on the POWERFUL self-talk! Often we think our head is the best problem solver when often that is where the problem began in the first place. How we choose to respond to a situation can make a big difference in the outcome of that particular situation. Oh...I LOVE that you get a notification on your phone when we release a new episode! Thank you for subscribing to my show!!! Wooop wooop!
Enricka Julien how are you today?
This episode brought me to tears. Lisa, you affirmed that I am not alone. Instead of feeling guilt and shame and being critical of myself, I'm going to sit at the foot of the mountain, catch my breath, strategize, stand and begin my journey to the top of the mountain. I appreciate you my sister in transformation! I'm forever grateful!
Perfectly said Sherri. I agree with you to see that we all have our struggles however we can take a pause. Which I just did recently and strategize to move forward and get to the top of that mountain. There are dips and I know I'm not perfect so when I do fall short, I have to learn from it so it doesn't happen in the future. Respond instead of react.
#BOL I was driving in my car listening to my daily resources when I heard my name with the most gentle spirit! "Hadassah" I have been walking with you as though I am physically there since my spiritual awakening a little over 6 months ago! I didn't just take action over my life but I done just what you encouraged me to do! I took radical action... I lived in my own lane all my life so I decided to create my own streets! Peace is understanding that I create my own reality! Freedom is a beautiful expression of grace and I can't help but to feel the tears roll down my face! From my heart to yours I thank you for being so transparent!!! Love teaches, molds, embraces & inspires.... I AM love! You have played a big part in helping me see my true essence! It's funny.... I was chasing love when the entire time it's been within!
SN: A few months ago I wrote on my dream wall that I wanted you to personally say my name attached to a message that I needed! I believed it in my heart and seen it clear as day! Now I can scratch that off the list until next time! Lmbo!
NEEDED THIS!
Always,
Love & Light
Hello Lisa
I am one of those people who listen to your podcast and never really listen. Until today, your story resonated wit me I am at work and I thought oh my God that's me. I fell and I thought I got up. These tears are evidence that I didn't. Thank you so much for sharing your story. And making it ok to sit for a moment. I am going to regroup and get back to living instead of existing. That's my BOL
I have been frozen for years! This is the first channel I am hitting the bell for. I need every episode.
LISA LISA LISA!!!!! My sister you went deep into my core with this one. I honestly feel like this message was made for me right now in this moment. I have been frozen for years and not just a couple years try like 14 years and never thought I would have the strength to de-thaw. I've had plenty of depressed days sitting by my mountain with no intention of movinv it because I was to afraid. Finally 2 weeks ago I decided enough is enough and I got up but when I got up Girl my butt was sore my legs ached, my shoulders were stiff from sitting and leaning up against that mountain. After wathcing this video I just realized that the reason the mountain never moved is because I gave it the power to stay never again will I give my power away to anyone or anything ever again!!! #BOL
💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃
Come with it Ashley!!! Yes! YES!!! So glad the message resonated with you my friend! I appreciate you!
Ashley Shavon You go girl!!! I was frozen for 13 years this summer like Elsa from Frozen I broke that ice girl and Let it go!!! When I say when that ice thawed I found a broken, cold as ice, heart cold, emotionally , physically, and psychologically messed up!!!!! I had to drop the mic on this one!! Safe journeys my sister were in Excellent hands from this day forward!! Love and light💜
This is my very first comment on social media. This vulnerability from a very powerful sister really helps. I've been frozen for years and just now starting to thaw out. I have a hair service and product that would help so many balding women, but I've been completely numb getting it going. I don't even know why I'm frozen, but I'm so frozen that I don't even know what I want anymore because I can't feel anything. Thawing out is a good, gentle first step for me. Thank you for sharing your struggles and receiving your son's love.
Well hello and thank you for sharing your first comment with this tribe!! You'll find the Motivating the Masses tribe to be a loving and supportive group of individuals just like you who are on the quest to enrich their personal lives as well as their businesses. Stay connected with us my friend! Women need your services!! xoxo
I just love you Lisa Nichols! That smile of yours says it all, every word you say from start to finish inspires me you definitely stir my soul sister God bless you
You lift me up and everything you say is yes Yessssssss
I am 59 yrs young and love my life I have been through life's journey became stronger ,wiser and spiritually, love you keep doing what your doing as I'm BOL xx
'Don't let me drive and then try to dictate where I take you."'Mmm. Love it!
I want to start by saying that regardless at the fact that this video is from the beginning of 2017, it still strikes me as though you were sitting right here front of me, in my house, telling me your story like the friend I know you are to me (in the spirit lol). A big lesson I have learned is that I cannot save everybody, I have to start with me. I always wanted to be the big hero as I never had anyone to save me so I can relate. I always knew that the open door God set before me was only for me, but I thought I could save them. I thought by focusing on me, I was being selfish, a term my mother said about me a lot coming up which goes back to why I put others before me. I sought for other's approval so much that I lost who I was and for years, I was lost. I have been deeply studying self love for months now and I am thankful by the grace of Jesus Christ himself, that I am finding more and more pieces of me, Brianna Nicole Martin. I thought all these years that I knew me, I am 28 years old with a 29th birthday coming this November 22nd, and I never knew myself or even a glimpse until I started looking for myself. I spent years investing in others opinion to find value. Once I began this journey to the center of my core, I found that the me I thought was me, was a fraud. I value myself now more than I ever have before and it 's such a beautiful thing. Like the flower hat blooms. I thank God for the clues the future me leaves for me to follow, like bread crumbs, so that I have something to follow everyday to get closer to who I am suppose to be. Lisa, you are an important key to my personal journey of self-love, self-growth and self-development. I watch and listen to your videos like the morning sermons I play on you tube from Joel Osteen and T.D. Jakes. lol. You are my friend Lisa, you are like a mother figure in which I never really had...... tho you and I have never met, you have a huge impact on my life and I appreciate you for sharing your stories, your struggle. I respect that. I will continue my journey everyday as I have. Finding me is not a destination, I am learning that it is a continuous journey and I know that as long as I have Jesus leading the way, I'm definitely on the right path. I am coming into the real Brianna and for the first time ever in my life, I feel like a real person and I can finally say for myself, "Brianna I am proud of you". Thank you my friend.
Brianna Martin happy belated birthday, my son's birthday is the 21 of November. He's my motivation, to want to better myself to give him a better future
"Freezing" is the BEST way I have found to describe what has happened to me this year. I turned 30 in February, and the very next day I hit a harder and bigger wall than I ever have in my life (burned out with my work, my relationship, and feeling completely isolated). I have spent the last 10 months frozen. I have not been making any forward progress, and I have been miserable. But then, a couple weeks ago I found an interview with you, and I have been scouring the internet for your videos and I feel like I finally am seeing a path where I can take the first step out.
I have reacted to anything that anybody that mattered had said that I was, mostly negative. Now I am learning to love who I am for no reason other than knowing that I am okay and whole and complete just the way I am - I kept trying to be perfect for everyone else, now I am perfect for me. From this change in my perspective, I have attracted an amazing man into my life and whenever I cannot get up, he is always there encouraging me and telling me I am a good person and have a lot to offer. These comments are the ones I listen to. Not the negatives ones from others who don't love or care about me.
Lisa Nichols is simply oxygen! I have to admit it I cannot go a day without listening to her!
Yes girl! Standing on the story. You’ve literally changed my life. I have my dream job because of your book !
This is so breath taking, sit down on the side of your mountain 🏔️ but not too long. Oooh, when my friend in business betrayed me like this it took you 28 hours but it took me 4 months to recover and restrategize and go back at it again, yes it did broke my heart but I prayed God make me whole, help me to forgive her and he did! and he restored everything that I lost. 🙏
Lisa I absolutely love this! I was fired 3 years ago by someone I thought was a friend. I've since forgiven her for my own soul's wellbeing. since then I've developed depression and a major anxiety disorder that has just almost paralyzed me at times. I vowed to never have another marketing job in life. I got sick and tired of being sick and tired so I decided to not let my FEAR paralyze me anymore. I got another marketing job working with physicians to walk through it. I did this with your help. I was just beating my self up when this popped up. thank you for validating that it is OK to sit on the side of the mountain. you saved my life when I couldn't see anyway out of that dark place. Thank you!
Thank you Lisa! You touched my heart with your experience. I have been recovering from a past difficult relationship these last 9 months. I've learned so much about my own shortcomings and letting others be who they are. I'm learning what it means to find peace in my heart and mind by focusing on things that are really important instead of dwelling on the past hurt. Bit by bit my life is transforming more into the kind of life I desire to live. Thank you for your loving inspiration!
Lisa Nichols I have been following for years now. And your story have always help me to break through and break free. I absolutely LOVE. Thank you for being open and transparent. Thank you for tapping into your inner being and identifying the golden nuggets you share with us.
I want you to know that you are indeed a life changer. Generational break through are wrapped up into all of us. Hence, when you help us to break through, you are helping tje next, and the next to break through as well.
I am better able to serve myself because of the affirmation I have been using.
Today, my take away is, "Not to react to every situation and then play the blame game to say you made me do it".
I LOVE YOU LISA NICHOLS💛
Thank you so much for sharing your story! You confirmed that we are not alone, and I love the mountain analogy. Sitting down does not mean we need to stop....Strategize!!
yes!yes!! What an amazing testimony Lisa.I am a sleeping giant waking up to his greatness! Thank You,Lisa!
I can always come here to you when I need some inspiration! Thank you!
Lisa,
Thank you for being so vulnerable and honest with us.
We appreciate you. We love you.
Wow, just what I needed to be confirmed. When I first got this news I thought about my past and I could not think of anything that hurt me as much. I thought about the days of prostitution, homelessness, drug addiction and all the abuse... I overcame all that. But May 2018 all that I had already overcome did not compare to the news I received, for a moment I thought this would destroy me for sure I could not stop crying. 1 week and a few days later I was scheduled to speak at a conference called 'NO MORE TEARS". My response was to everyday meditate and medicate on Psalms 29:11. "God has given me strength and He blesses his people with peace. I am one of his people therefore I expected strength and peace and there it was. I still do have moments but I refuse to stop.Listening to you today was what I needed to hear...I was having a moment......Keep me in your prayers. By the way God spoke through me at the conference like as if nothing happened. If fact the news prepared me for the speaking engagement. Everything really does work together for my good, everything!!
Your vulnerability is one of your gifts Lisa. I cried as you cried in this video as you describe being violated in your trust of your business. The power of oneself to pause not stop to stragezie to keep going forward not tumble down your mountain. But to allow your personal blood tribe to embrace you as regroup to continue the fight for happiness and successful. Thank you for being a light this world ..this country needs of a positive force of energy and love and wisdom to battle the darkness and negatively that does exist. I thank you my sister as you came in my life when God knows I needed to rediscover myself again and peel my layer of potential.
I am from Suriname. A country in South America. This was just what I needed to hear. Everything was so blurry when I didn't even know if I still had a job or not. Didn't know where to start again. Trust, shame and betrayal looked like they were taking over. It was as if I had to see and hear this today. Thanks a million miss Lisa Nichols. Hope I get to meet you in person one day. Your videos do me so much good. Hope you be blessed more to keep inspiring and helping people get out of the dark places in their lives.😘😘😘
Lisa I'm sorry about your work situation, I'm sure it'll get better especially with an amazing mindset like yours :)
Whew boy! When its family that's the mountain.. feels more like a time capsule. You're just STUCK in life draining patterns of behavior. Good on you for breaking free!
My Beloved Sister Lisa, your words has me in tears, I have been sitting still and afraid to move because i have had one thing after another after another happened to me, my health, my finances, my relationships that most days i feel like i cant breathe. And all i keep telling myself that GREATER DAYS ARE AHEAD, but Lisa when i look up there is another mountain there i have to overcome, so thank you for sharing and always for being authentic. I appreciate you, your message and your story, you give me hope that a single mother from Atlanta can also live her dreams. I love you beloved and thank you, thank you, thank you for who you are!
Thank you Lisa. I've been frozen for the last 20 years trying to find my true self/purpose for the last six years. You have lit a fire inside of me. I'm getting to a place where life is coming together and I am starting to figure it out. Thank you again Lisa. You are God sent.
Lisa.... I have been listening to you and reading your books for many years. I would often look for more from you on UA-cam and I feel like I had searched UA-cam for videos to no avail. Then, you created your own channel. THANK YOU! I have been listening and sharing your videos because many of them resonate with me. This one in particular resonated with me because I am going through an ugly part of my life, but through your story, I've found peace through a lot of ugliness I have experienced. This story has once again helped me in one of my darkest hours. Thank you for standing in your truth and being an inspiration to many. You've helped me to find my purpose and I am on my way to greatness. Thank you for every word you've written, spoke, and continue to share. I will keep listening, sharing, and writing notes!
Thank you. . . . Shutting down and withdrawing has been, and is the biggest hurdle I face. Thank you for letting me know I'm not the only one. I recognize that if I'd kept fighting some things may have turned out different. So now I have to just press play.
Ms. Lisa, this has really made me think about the many times I've compromised myself from being hurt, taking advantage of and mistreated. I had to own my own happiness, and realize that hurt people hurt others. I set boundaries from them and decided to rebuild my mountain. I got stuck for a minute, cried silently, and prayed. God restored my strength and I got ME back. It may take me sometime, but I am moving upwards and forward. I purposely fill my spirit with goodness, and the Word of God, and continue to revisit areas that I know I need to strengthen and meditate and envision where I want to be as a spiritually successful woman. Truly thank you for your courage.
As you have always said and keep on saying, Lisa. Our stories don't belong to us but to inspire others. I today as a 16 years old male have cried tears from this story, one that hit me hard, like you say it, BOL! It has been and will always be such a great lesson and I will never forget the feeling I got from this video especially from your story. That at each mountain there will be hard times and it depends on the way you choose to respond to it and consider the domino effect of your actions, and in those hardships I will decide to not only respond but to finish climbing those mountains even if it takes me couple or many times to pause and catch my breath. Thank you, Lisa! This IS my Tribe
BOL it's not that we get hurt or betrayed or hit by injustice. That we move through it and become stronger is our power! Love you and wishing blessings on you!
Lisa, thank you for your comment. I wanted to quit so many times. I just feel stuck.
Well, you got to the heart of me again Lisa :) Thank you for being vulnerable and undeniably strong at the same time. I sometimes find it hard to watch you because I am also a strong black woman and it's still new to see someone so unapologetically portray the beauty, strength and amazing qualities that I have in my own way. But that's only on the days that I try to be invisible with the misguided notion that I can protect myself from pain that way. You are a shining star Lisa, always reminding me of who I truly am: vulnerable and undeniably strong. Forgiveness is my friend and so are you. I love you too.
Lisa one of the reasons why I connect w/you is how down to earth you are. How you share your life experiences so it may benefit others. I am glad the Lord helped you through that tough time and you are back on your feet. Girl even though it cost you a mil, the Lord provided that mil so you may get past and through it. You are divinely blessed and yes I believe you are my sister even though we have not met physically, we met before we agreed to manifest our physical presence on this earth, in this moment in time. Yes we have met many times, we have spoken many times and we agreed you would take this path to enlighten and encourage me and others who may have forgotten who we are and how great we are. Love you so much my sister and hope to meet you in the flesh one day. In the meantime say Blessed Always.
Lisa Nichols you are such an inspiration! I see myself through your eyes. Just watching you and listening to your stories make me want to be a better person.
Your beauty surpasses everything that the dictionary defines. This is what beauty is having a pure soul.
Thank you! Thank you!
THANK YOU! This video was truly on time. As I sat in my own shut down moment, the notification for this video popped up. I almost didn't watch but "something " urged me to listen. It seems like every time I decide to take a step forward a distraction from who I was or life in general comes along. I totally talk myself out of pushing forward and begin to spiral down this hole. It never occurred to me that I am not alone. Listening to your story reminds me that stuff happens to everyone AND I get to choose how to respond. You also taught me that I can grieve the pain/shock of the distraction AND still choose to move forward. I am learning that it doesn't have to be "either or." It can be both AND that's ok. ;) Thanks a million, Lisa!
I am sitting down and getting ready to get up, thank you for the inspiration, even the inspirational responses, teaching me how to be in love with my self
I appreciate you!!!! xoxo
Love you Lisa ❤️ I’m proud of you and I thank you for this. I can relate. I’ve gotten good at sitting down and getting up. It’s a blessing to know that it’s a good thing to be able to do.
Thank you. Yes Namaste Sister Love received & I love you too
Yes, yes and oh, yessss! this message completely blessed me. I needed this so much. thank you, Lisa!!!
#BOL !!!!!!!!!! “I staggered up”..... Lisa I felt this in my soul !!!!! Every single time by the grace of God I am so close to tears because I felt that very deeply !!!! Every time , I GOT UPPPPP!!!
Honey, I am your sister from 'down under' NZ.. I am wiping my tears while typing you. I love your power, your strength, cause I draawwww from it. Let me just thank you, and bless you today. I love you and your podcast. xx
Thank you for this Lisa! #BOL. Press pause, sit down at the side of the mountain and catch your breath. Time to choose response over reaction. Peace & Blessings!
Wow, I am almost in tears. Thank you for your courage to trust again. Because of your struggle it has and is still is helping so many. #bol I am going to embrace my pit stop but not lose sight of where I am going. Keep being the light you were made to be. Love you
BOL!! Sitting on the side of my mountain! Wow! Needed permission to do that after only being told to climb it!! Everyone needs a moment to regroup, rest, reflect and reactivate to finish the climb.
I Am Confident, I Am Powerful, I Am Enough ...thank you so much Lisa🙏💫💜
Wow! I needed to hear this, I had been hit so hard this last year I was wondering how do I get back up, I learned from listening that I don't have to jump up right away an operate the way people expect me to. I can take my time, strategize and come back with more power, peace and wisdom than before. Thank you so much!!!!!
Thank you for this! I'm sitting at work and the tears would not stop coming. I just realized that I've been sitting on the side of my mountain for many years.... wow. The opportunities, the assistance and the love that has past me by just became clear. I gave away my power and was mad at everyone for my circumstances. I shut down and stayed there but Lisa your story inspires me. I'm and going to be wobbly but I am getting up! After all these years of harboring bad feelings because of things my family did, I am going to get up and start moving again! Thank you!
Oh Lisa, It is so authentic to let your child have the great lesson of seeing you vulnerable and human. My parents did not let me see this until I was an adult. I had to discover who they were as an adult was somewhat different from the strength I saw as a child. I saw pain and indecision even missed a opportunity but it helped me accept a lot in myself and I stopped blaming myself and others for situations realizing it is all in my perception and action as to how the situation manifests. I am learning to balance pain with hope and plan redemption through giving myself a thousand 2nd chances. That is my BOL.
Lisa... you beautiful beautiful soul... 🙏🙏🙏 Thank you for making the side of the mountain I'm resting on, somehow feel ok and tolerable today. Your words were water for a thirsty soul, courage for a questioning spirit and fuel for an empty tank. You truly are doing what you've always been meant to do. You are living your epic adventure of a lifetime and in doing so, you brought back a spark. It was like a Lisa Nichols magic wand that made it ok to be not ok in this moment. Thank you for showing up in life and living your purpose. You made a difference in my dismantled life and reminded me that all things are temporary and meant for our greatest good. I needed this message today. I'm grateful for it and I'm grateful for you. Thank you thank you thank you. Yes, YES! 🦋🤗🦋 hugs and love yo you
Lisa,
I'm so inspired by your content and interviews. I've been frozen for 2 years and I've slowly been coming back into motion. Thank you for your words and intention. They have always lifted me up and out of an old perspective I kept on viewing life through.
You are so very appreciated and loved. :)
Lisa, B.O.L.!!!! I am moved and inspired by the strength of your spirit and the commitment to your dream.
My spirit is refreshed and Empowered! I am taking control of my life because
"I AM" the #ONLY ONE who can rescue Me. And when anything or anyone knocks me down. I will always get back up and keep on climbing.
Lisa, I sit here with tears rolling down my cheeks (AGAIN). Thank you for so honest & authentically sharing your pain with us. This made me realize just how far I've come in my journey. I am not the women I was 10 yrs ago (THANKFULLY) I am not the women I was 5yrs or 2 yrs or even 3 month's ago. For many many year's, for as long as I can remember I reacted rather than responded. All of my relationships fell apart due to my explosive reactions and inability to take ownership for them. Without realizing it, I was handing over my power left right & center, leaving me stuck in a repetitive vicious cycle. After I got clean & sober & gave my life to the Lord (3 yrs ago) I had the biggest realization I've ever had!!! I'd always thought the problem layed in everyone else BUT the ah'ha moment then was when I looked myself straight in the mirror & realized I WAS THE COMMON DENOMINATOR!!! I realized that thru my entire life up until that moment, I had never authentically took ownership of me, my reactions & just how they've affected other people. How my explosive anger made other people feel & how it left me feeling powerless! I live my life taking full responsibility for me, for everything that is encompassed in me. It is definitely a journey & I sometimes get off course BUT being 100% conscious about this has allowed me to find the nessecary avenues to release old pattern's & with A LOT of me work I'm finally on the right path. Today's A'HA moment made me realize that I have been frozen on my mountain... I've been wondering why everything seems to be taking so long. It's because, I've been frozen. So, today, this moment, I am getting back on the trail that leads up to my beautiful peak. I am ready for my blessed hike to the best version of me! Thank you Lisa, I appreciate more than words! xo
I have played this 5 times this morning already and shared it with 6 others. This story you shared is so relevant to my current situation. I have been riddled with anxiety and have been “frozen” in despair. You encourage me to take another breath and stand back up and move into response, not reaction. Thank you Lisa!
This is a helpful episode, because bad people are always out there. We just grow in being able to spot them.
Am staggering up right now from a family betrayal. Your reminder to respond rather than react helped immensely. Love your deep wisdom Lisa!
PS. I shut down for years, frozen w/fear so I am divinely blessed for you to be lead to talk about this and share your experience so I/we know that we should keep going no matter how dark it may seem. Thanks again Lisa. My heart is filled w/much love for you.
"The mountain top is still there, and it still BELONGS to ME!" WOW! thank you Lisa, that spoke to ME!
this video touched me I'm in serious break down with my mom and I'm hurting we have a volatile relationship and i do more reacting than responding and after every argument i end up feeling horrible and ashamed that I would ever raise my voice or speak foul to my mother the person i love so much and wants approval from i realize that i do react more than respond in several situations l'm on the journey of changing this before i pass these habits along to my beautiful twin daughters i don't want them to ever feel how I've felt my whole life I'm working on becoming a better me to be better for them i am so happy i have found you i purchased your book and look forward to reading and starting my self healing
Lisa! This one made me cry. I have been frozen for over 2 years and on top of it, I had several betrayals in that time. Your words came at the exact moment I had decided to make the change to move forward and not live in the past. I decided to take back my power - what a powerful moment - YES! YES!
Lisa, my sister . You make me cry for what happen with you and how your son took care of you. I am not alone and I have encouraged for the situation I am in now! God bless you!
You spoke right into my heart today... I had a business that I worked so hard for, it took years to build. After some people began telling untruths and stayed on it until my company closed. I was devastated, it devastated my health, finances, family... It has taken 9 months but in the past three weeks I have started to stand back up. Thank you for being real.. an inspiring women.
LISA!!!!! Yes.....this is confirmation that I CAN NOT give my power away!!!!
Its not about how you fall but about how you get up!!! YES YES!
Healing takes time. What a simple sentence to describe hours and sometimes years of heartache, and longing to be whole. But it's worth it. I'm still working on moving the needlepoint a little every day but the important thing is it's moving. I'm moving forward and moving onto a greater version of myself.
Wooow this was definitely a wake up call for me. I am in tears. You are so beautiful Lisa.Thank you for touching so many lives with your love and encouragement. 😘
Wow! This episode blew the roof off!! Wow! Froze, reacted, paused,etccc...Whew! Self Love is saving lives especially mine!!! Lisa, as you shared, I began tearing at the joy (it so resonated) of how you got back up in your experience and thank you for steppibg on my toes.....Wow!
You made me cry, Lisa. Let out these tears that I ve been sucking in since I started climbing this mountain. Getting close to the mountain top is where I face the most difficult challenges....I will sit , I'll catch my breath and I'll get back up.
Lisa you've been my mentor and you don't even know it. I'll get a chance to tell you face to face. I bless God for your life Lisa. I had frozen at a certain point in time, when I got hit by anxiety attacks. they were so overwhelming that I almost gave up on my dream, I thought it was the end of me and slowing I began to fall into depression...I was actually giving up on myself. After watching your videos, I got out of bed for the first times in weeks, with fear in my belly and I decided to make one needle point move at a time. Panic attacks had dominated me long enough! I held fear in one hand and passion in the other and I leaped! I had to face my fears, and I was affraid of the fears I had inside of me, but I was not going to let them destroy my life, so I faced them boldly. Today I m a changed person, I no longer give in to fear, in fact when I am affraid to do something, especially one which can catapult me to where I want to go, I do it affraid, I do it anyway, and fear dissipates.
The obscurity of the night is always more intense before dawn so I know like I know like I know, that I will get there.
Got back up this morning from feeling betrayed. Stayed 3 days in bed, but ready to recapture my dreams. Set up healthy boundaries speaking my loving thoughts out loud. Your message is right on time for me today. #BOL Claim the day to claim me! Love you Lisa !
Emotional Intelligence! Thank you for the reminder Lisa. Much love.
I was blessed by this testimony Queen. You speak with sincerity. It's so tough handle being burned in general, let alone by someone you trusted. Praying for your continued healing in this situation. ✌🏾& ❤️
Dear Lisa your stories speaks to the soul, even the way you narrate the story its so enriching . You are just a reservoir of knowledge and wisdom. I might not have any particular instance in my life to relate to that but am just confident my life is on course and I learn so much from your inspirational messages so I don't get to make the mistakes and life is on a smooth ride all way. Thank you so much for being you so that I could be me. In the nearest future I intend to enroll in your academy when am viable as am saving for that seriously. There's no stopping................... I am happening
My #BOL! If I get tired while climbing the mountain it's okay to sit down. But GET UP! Because the mountain is still there! The TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN IS MINE! I so needed this today...Thank you Thank you for sharing yourself like you do! I didn't want to get up today. I got a reminder on my phone to listen to your video.... Sometimes we can be so deep in our own funk that we need to hear others positive thoughts because we can't see past our stuff...Thank you again!!!
LISA, you are a true inspiration indeed. So many rich light bulb moments... Through my life I often find myself sensoring what I say to spare the feelings of others. When they don't do the same for me...I realized it was ok when you basically said. (Respond don't Re-act. When you Re-act you gave your Power Away.
Be Responsible for what You Say, You Think and You Do)...I no longer feel stepped on or rolled over for choosing to respond and not re-act ... I feel Powerful..
Definitely Ms. Lisa. I used to react with anger all the time. I came to the realization years ago that I couldn't keep reacting to anything the ways I did. This was definitely a reminder for me as to how much I've grown and where I don't want to go back too.
Thank you for sharing your journey. I had a knock down moment some years ago. I stayed down for months, but I got up stronger, with a new outlook on life. I have a closer relationship with God and now I am sharing my experience with others to encourage them. God bless sister, love you too!
I loved the comment on reaction vs. response...and the difference...
Grand rising Lisa. The God in me also sees the God in you💞. I would just like to say I do not listen to a multitued of motivational speakers as It is my soul that gravitates to the particular speaker and I would like to say my soul has severely gravitated to you, and now when I wake up I start my day with your uplifting spirit to carry your words through my day. Lisa thank you so much for being you. Peace, love and progress.💞💞💞
Just like my momma and I, your babies know when momma is hurting! Lovely story, lovely message!
I only had one word in my mind during this whole video..."wow". Thanks for being vulnerable with us Lisa. It also allows us to be vulnerable, rest and get back up again. Much love from Sydney, Australia.
Thank you for this message and all of your messages. My baby sis put me on to you recently and now I listen almost everyday. I don't know how I'm going to get to where I wanna be in life from where I am, but messages like this helps increase my faith. Again thank you❤
Lisa you have touched me so much this morning ...i'm sitting here in tears listening to you tell my story to me. I have heard of you Lisa over the years but today i Found you! Thank you Lisa you speak to me you speak to my truth & saying it out loud is whats makes me own it. It's 11/08/17 4:43 am & Finally told myself the truth I am depressed and i need to get up today & MOVE!!!
I have been frozen in time because of loss and am trying to "renew" my life. Somewhere I missed my footing in climbing my mountain. Slowly trying to regain strength with recovery appearing to be so far away, I've got my second wind because of this video. When we lose and/or have been betrayed, it's like a sucker punch. Being in many a fights, I don't ask why. I get up and strategize on ways of preventing this from happening again or if the situation causes me to have to fight my way out, I do that. This has been a "you can do it" moment for me. Thank you Lisa.
Thank you Lisa. Through this video, i learned four things: Live above the noise. God bless you
WE ALL FALL DOWN... what matters is how WE GET BACK UP!!! Take that time out, make adjustments and move forward!!! My biggest lesson in LIFE!
Lisa, I loved today's story. Thank you for all your inspiration. I've been an admirer for a long time and have shared you with friends as the difference you make.
My favorite about today is the fact that you were willing to be so vulnerable with us with something so recent. Many people think once you reach your level of success, especially financial, then life is all roses. It's hard to imagine someone having REAL problems that affect us so magnificently.
I'm glad it's in your past now and, while I'm sorry it was so painful, I'm glad that lesson is behind you and won't have to be learned again.
Happy 4th. Hopefully see you on the 11th. I'm in Chicago. Xoxo
Oh My GOD! LISA!!! #BOL I hadn't realized that the "Proverbial" Cat has had my tongue for years, by not Speaking my truth and by not using my voice to SPEAK over my life, my destiny, my future into existence. I can't freeze, I must push past the fear of success AND the fear of failure (WOW...what an oxymoron!) by using my voice to SPEAK MY TRUTH! #IAMOR I Love You, Lisa! Thank you for how you show up in the world! You have changed my life forever! #YouRock ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
With tears rolling down my face, Lisa. Sister friend, gurrrl, thank you for sharing. Contribute to inspire the tribe. The best lesson I learned from listening to this episode is, I need to sit down on the side of the mountain.
Thank you for sharing your story!! We are more powerful than we think. Just because we sit down and think or sit down beside the mountain, does not mean we are giving up. I love the mountain analogy!
I have been working on myself this lockdown as I haven’t been able to work for anyone else and it’s really given me time to sit down and evaluate what principles I stand by and where I want to go and what I want to do with my life. As I wasn’t working and I’ve been used to working from when I left school I felt worthless in someways. Then through working on myself and making a clearer vision for myself I was able to come out of feeling bad for myself and my situation abs making the best of what I had which lead me to prepare for unexpected moments that changed my perception and helped me reach goals. That wouldn’t have been possible if I was the same person as before so now I trust my journey more and have more faith in myself and the universe to pull through for me. Thank you Lisa
I am standing still in finally removing the bandages & healing the wounds from childhood trauma... standing still in it to grown out of it instead of ignoring it. Thank you Lisa
I'm just recovering from my moment where my whole world has been crashing down...I loved hearing that it is ok to stop and ponder on it . but now I'm going to stand back up and live my life fuller and more stronger than ever before...packages wrapped in sandpaper ..I'm learning they are the best
I'm sitting down now from shame and feeling ridiculed by my own actions and decisions in life. Realising the pain I've caused people that truly genuinely loved me. This waking up is really hard on me but I somehow get some strength to be able to taking deep breath and apologize to who have been reacting to. Some I just didn't react to when I should of. It's overwhelming and sometimes want to give up. I can't have to keep on pushing.
Thank you for this message. It's a great feeling to know that we are not alone.
I am so glad I found you. This is the second video I have listened too. Each one is right on! My take away today is my reaction to certain instances in my life. I have frozen, gotten up, kept on pushing only to be challenged again. But this time I teeter-tottered! Did not fall, the challenge took my breathe away, but the message was crystal clear: although I consider myself to have pretty good life coping skills they will always be tested. I have to work on not reacting, but pausing. This will take some getting use to, but this 2nd part of my journey I am holding on too, taking a very deep breathe and moving forward inwardly and outwardly. Thank you Lisa!!!
Thank you Lisa, I am for the first time saying that I was knocked down, devastated and even paralyzed by a silent business partner stealing my business from me. it has taken me over 2012 till today, to realize it. I forgave them, relocated by GOD for ministry, had several personal/educational successes, my marriage became better but professionally I have been stagnant and didn't understand why. After shedding many tears I now know that I have to trust again and move forward in my professional life. May GOD bless you abundantly for your labor of love. I am going to push reset and forgive myself while getting back up. Shantell
#BOL My God My God!!! You spoke to my soul with the "Stop reacting and start responding" piece... I have been working on this for the past few months as my husband and I are rebuilding our marriage by laying a strong foundation. Due to past situations, I have triggers. When a trigger arises, I immediately react negatively, I shutdown/freeze and shatter the foundation. In those moments I feel a though I have EVERY right to react given his actions or inactions... But you just chin-checked me so hard and set me straight Ms. Lisa! I thank you for allowing God to use you as His vessel to speak the hard truths to His children!!! Thank you for your transparency!!!
Hi Lisa. Fantastic message. Thank you for serving us (your tribe) with such a wonderful wake up call. I am currently sitting down from stillness and needed something like this to get back up. I'm so glad I watched this. Gives me hope and confidence and mental strength to rise again!
Oh Lisa what a miracle of Life you are. I've been avoiding watching and listening to you for quite awhile and this morning of the 13th of June 2017 I got the courage to watch this segment because I needed to hear what you had to say.
I'm at a cross roads now after feeling put down, lonely and wondering why and how I made this happen. Your encouragement to "not freeze, not react..." is Brilliant. My style of behaving is to run and hide and blame. I'm so Grateful this morning to have listened to you and I am going to "Pause and not Freeze or React..." and get up and tackle what I need to do to get up again. Your son and my son must be Kindred Spirits because I'm Blessed to have a son that's always there for me too.
Peace and Harmony.

This is an Episode that I watched time and time again to get more strength. The first time I watched it I was at work and I cried my eyes out and then put my shades on lol. The mother's love in me evoke at your love for your son every time I listen to you talking about him. I paused after raising my daughter and now I am recharging..
One of those videos you can watch over and over again.
