Lisa Brouwer presents
Daring Leadership, Courageous Living
Lisa Brouwer spent 20 years in a corporate, commission-based sales and leadership position where she was highly successful. But on the inside, Lisa wrestled with feeling enough despite her achievements, carried the weight of being a guilty mom and shared heremotional leftovers with the people who deserved her best. During an ugly-cry breakdown on her way to work one morning, Lisa had an epiphany ... her stark, overworked, overwhelmed reality did not match the vision she had for her life. It took Lisa five long years to leave her job and step into something that aligned with the bigger, bolder plan for her life. And it was through courageously doing deep inner work that she discovered she was worth being brave with her life.
