Lisa here—recording straight from Poland, where I’m surrounded by powerful women stepping into leadership and civic engagement. But this week’s episode isn’t just about what’s happening overseas—it’s about how all of us, wherever we are, can lead in business and life by showing up for something bigger than ourselves.

Civic engagement isn’t just town halls and voting booths. It’s mentoring, collaborating, building with intention. It’s using your platform, your presence, and your business to serve—not just sell.

In this episode, I’m breaking down what civic-driven leadership really looks like, how it builds trust and community, and why it’s the secret sauce for long-term impact. If you’re craving purpose over performance, impact over ego, and legacy over likes—this one’s for you.

While I’m recording this episode from Poland—teaching leadership and civic engagement to women across the region—I’m also reminded that my business still needs to run back home. The truth is, if all my income came from one client or offer, this trip wouldn’t have been possible.

In this solo episode, I’m walking you through five low-lift, practical ways to diversify your income using tools, content, and ideas you already have. No big team. No giant launch. Just smart, scrappy strategies that work—especially if you’re a solopreneur.

Whether you’ve got a digital product sitting in Google Drive, a client process you repeat weekly, or a pep talk you give on repeat, this episode will help you turn what’s already working into income that gives you breathing room and freedom.

In this episode of The Seed, I’m coming to you from Poland—yes, really! I’m five days into teaching women leadership and civic engagement abroad, and while it sounds like a dream (and it is), it’s also stretching me in all the best ways. From coordinating lacrosse schedules for my boys back home to navigating client work and receiving edits on my first-ever book, life feels like a whirlwind—and somehow exactly where I’m supposed to be.

I’m getting real about what this experience means, how I’m staying grounded in Dandelion-Inc while overseas, and why I’m done hustling for hustle’s sake. This is about alignment, impact, and showing up—even when the butterflies hit hard. If you’re in a season of starting, restarting, or standing at the edge of something new, this one’s for you.

We’ll talk leadership, business growth, and why sometimes you just have to begin—even if it’s messy.

Hey friends, it’s Lisa — and today we’re busting the myth that the only way to grow your business is by living on social media 24/7.

I’m walking you through other (actually effective) ways to grow your visibility and credibility — without being glued to your phone. From podcasting and email lists to collaborations and good old-fashioned follow-through, you’ll hear how I built trust, grew my business, and found my voice off social.

And if podcasting is something you’ve been curious about, I’ve created a self-paced digital course for beginners that walks you through everything from hitting record to publishing your first episode and beyond. When you sign up using the link in the show notes, you’ll get a free 90-minute 1:1 consult with me — a space for us to walk through your vision, strategy, and podcast plan together.

This week on The Seed, I’m joined (for the second time!) by Stacey Gordon — global leadership strategist, DEI expert, and the voice we all need to hear right now. We go beyond surface-level buzzwords and into the real conversations about workplace culture, unconscious bias, retention, and how leadership is showing up—or not—in today’s climate. Stacey doesn’t hold back, and neither do I. We’re talking about what’s really happening inside companies, the cowardly backlash against DEI, and how to lead with integrity even when it’s hard.

If you’re a business owner, HR leader, or just someone trying to make the workplace better for everyone, this episode is your wake-up call (and your action plan). Because “making work work” isn’t about checking boxes—it’s about showing up, listening, and leading differently.
