Meet Lisa.

About me.

I started my career in New York’s fashion industry out of college. Fun, Fun, Fun. It was exciting, glamorous, and hard, too. I was part of a supply chain production team at a top fashion label and after 10 years I took a sabbatical to raise my two daughters. I am returning to the workplace with a new purpose and commitment to helping others lead their best life.

How did I  get here? For years, close friends would tell me they loved our conversations. I was a good listener, I gave good advice, I helped them figure things out. After our chats, friends said they felt empowered, supported, and most importantly…heard. I decided to do something with that. I trained to be a life coach to help others set a new course for their lives. I am now a certified Life Coach and I love it. When I meet with clients, we have great conversations. We talk about their goals, develop a timeline and a plan to make the changes they want in their lives. As we go through the process together, we navigate the obstacles together that have hindered them in the past. 

I am currently pursuing a PhD degree in Happiness Studies, due to graduate May 2029.

(Both of my daughter have graduated, I am in denial so I am leaving this paragraph ❤️)When I am not working you can find me on the sidelines of the soccer field. Yes, I am a soccer mom! I don’t know if I am a fan of the game or just a fan of my two daughters who play. Either way the journey with them has been an amazing experience.

Why Ruby Slippers

The name of  my company comes from, you guessed it, “The Wizard of Oz”. I just love the quote from Glinda, the Good Witch: “You had the power all along my dear, you just needed to know it for yourself”. That is the core of my coaching philosophy-- all the answers are within you; you just don’t know you know them. That’s where I come in. In our sessions, you and I put in the work to unlock the doors you didn’t realize you’d closed. I give you resources and tools to reach the goals you have set and we meet to chart your progress. I feel great satisfaction that clients leave me feeling better about the choices they are making to live their best life.
