Hello, friends, and welcome back to Season 2 of the podcast!
I am thrilled to be sitting down with De Lisa Patterson, brand mixologist and all around creative. One, because she's freakin' hilarious. And two, because she is a wealth of knowledge and inspiration.
De Lisa's journey starts with a tale of loss — of a job, a relationship, and her self-confidence all at the same time. She shares how those losses took their toll, and also how they shaped her journey. De Lisa offers practical tips for staying in the room and sitting with the discomfort, as well as mindset shifts that were profound for her own transformation.
We also touch on the importance of patience, mindfulness, and gratitude. Three things that have played a major role in my own life and journey.
I'd love to hear from you!
