“Success got to my head, and it almost became my identity. It consumed me. I focused on the wrong things, and I thought, ‘If this is all there is, there’s something missing. I should be feeling joyous and happy with my achievements, and that’s not the case.’ I was struggling with putting the puzzle pieces together. Working with Lisa was so instrumental in helping me slow down in the process and start to extrapolate all these different elements to figure out what I really wanted moving forward in my life and my career. We really broke things down, and she knew I wanted more out of life.

“You think you can do this alone — ‘this is my problem so I have to fix it.’ But you don’t know where to start, because it’s a big, scary question. There’s no shame in doing this and getting the resources you need.”

“What you said stuck with me. I went all in for the hell yes and got it! Was between the two coworkers each offering me a job and I countered both with a different job and then got one! I’m all accepted and starting to transition to my new role. And it’s even a bit more money which was a nice thing I wasn’t looking for. I did turn down a third because there was travel (the product manager job) and while the job would have been nice the travel kept it from being a hell yes. The job I ended up getting is a new layer we are creating (per industry best practices) that’s between development and product. So I might actually get the best of both worlds!! Amazing. I enjoyed our sessions and wouldn’t be here without them.”

"Lisa is an incredibly warm and caring person who I felt like I could trust right away. I was able to be very vulnerable (something I don’t love to do) on numerous occasions...I left each conversation feeling like I was moving in the right direction and armed with homework to keep deep diving on me and what I want. I’m not sure where I’d be if I didn’t have your support along the way."

“Lisa has done an amazing job bringing my A+ game out from me, and I feel my big successes so far have gone further because of her guidance. 2 months to two job offers at great companies is a solid success.”

“Lisa was amazing! …It was helpful working with her because she helped me think about structuring how to talk to people about what I’m looking for and moving forward. There were moments when I would avoid an issue in my search and she would call me out and ask what I thought I was protecting by avoiding it.

I would have never thought before our coaching sessions that radical authenticity could take me this far! My presumption had always been to mold myself to what I thought people were looking for, and now that I’ve gone through it being authentic and honest, it’s nothing short of liberating.”

“Working with Lisa was one of the best career investments I have ever made. Prior to our work together, I felt as though I was being pulled in a million directions without a clue of the direction I actually wanted to forge for myself. Lisa helped me clarify the things I was looking for in work and life, identify my “north stars” and values that truly mattered to me, and prepare to launch into a new, amazing career in a field I am truly excited about! Throughout the process, Lisa’s relentless optimism and encouragement helped me lean into my strengths rather than focus on weaknesses. In addition, Lisa’s guidance helped me overcome my fears, stay accountable to my personal and professional growth, and ultimately find a career that aligns my passions, strengths, lifestyle, and goals. I would 100% recommend working with Lisa!”

“From working with Lisa, I was blessed to:

• Find a culture that fostered what I wanted – a ‘freedom to fail’ attitude, innovation, and revolutionary – at an exciting start-up.
• Receive a 45% raise from the salary I made at my old company.
• Find myself on the most optimal team size for me – 2-3 people.
• Find myself at a company supporting completely flexible work schedules.
• Find myself at a company with domestic and international travel opportunities.

Personally speaking, I am much more engaged and thorough with the work I am doing. As Lisa said, a happier you is a more productive you. I can’t thank Lisa enough for learning to understand who I am, and helping me map what my ideal legacy would look like.” 

“As an artist and entrepreneur, I juggle multiple projects and business lines every day. It’s easy to get lost in the hustle and jump from project to project (or fire to fire) with nothing left but a sense of overwhelm. Lisa helped me sort through all my activities and strategically focus my time and energy on those that mattered most to not only my financial bottom line but also my passion bottom line. She broke everything down into small, doable steps until we found a plan that worked. If you’re feeling stuck or need help getting yourself from point A to point B, I highly recommend working with her. And don’t wait – do it now! Your future self will thank you.”

“When I approached Lisa about doing coaching, I was feeling torn between multiple interests. I am a professional photographer and felt I had little control over my day-to-day schedule or the work I was doing.

One major benefit I’ve already experienced is working smarter. That means I try to spend less time on any given activity, but achieve the same amount or more productivity. I am able to do this because I now realize it leads to having more free time to use towards my passion projects. It’s helpful to have a clear vision that I can share with anyone who does not know my work and wants to know what I do. It’s also led to saying no to things I’m not truly excited to attend because I realize it will give me more time for the things I love.

I’ve reaped great rewards from working with Lisa. She has a great gift of teasing out struggle, motive, and anything that may be holding someone back. I’d recommend anyone who is having a little trouble organizing thoughts and goals on their own to bounce them off of Lisa. She is understanding, caring, and really values the success of her clients!” 

“It amazes me how Lisa is able to combine big thinking creativity with practical problem solving to help people navigate complex career questions and crossroads. It’s easy to find one or the other but rare to find a coach like Lisa that integrates both the meaningful and the practical, seamlessly. She’s super sharp and will challenge you to bring forth your full potential while being genuinely warm and supportive as you take each step forward – no matter how big or how small.” – Adrian Klaphaak, Founder of A Path That Fits, Inc.

“I tell people all the time that Lisa Lewis is one of my favorite people on the planet. Her warm, caring demeanor makes you immediately feel at ease and supported. But there’s more to her than just that. She will tell you where you’re f-ing up — and instead of feeling bad, you’ll like her even more. She will call you out when you’re avoiding your dreams, she will even hold them in front of you and help you find the courage and confidence to pursue them. She does this with such ease and professionalism that you don’t even realize what’s happening. It’s truly something amazing to watch! It was an honor to work with her at Happen To Your Career, and anyone who chooses to work with her should realize they’re getting one of the best career coaches in the world!” – Scott Barlow, Founder of Happen to Your Career

“Lisa’s radiant enthusiasm shines through every interaction, and she genuinely wants all of her clients to shine as brightly as possible in the world. She is a generous listener with a knack for quickly getting to the root of things, all while helping making tremendous progress on the practical, tactical strategy side of planning next steps too. Lisa is thoughtful, kind, whip-smart, intuitive, and insightful—the perfect ingredients for a powerful coach! I can’t recommend working with her highly enough if you’re lucky enough to have the chance.”
