What Brett asks:
- [04:15] What was your childhood like?
- [09:43] What’s it like growing up when you feel like an outsider?
- [19:13] So what happened as you started feeling smarter than everyone else? And how did you find your way back?
- [35:34] What is your unique ability?
- [45:35] Talk about what you’re doing with the Columbus Woodland Manor Mansion.
Lessons for intentional living:
- “I think, sometimes, God puts those folks in your life… put that negativity in your life, because at least for me, that’s the seed that helped me to be my best me.” When Lisa’s parents told her that artists don’t make a living and urged her not to be a designer, she used that as fuel to lean into the discomfort and take a risk. We all have these moments where someone close to us attempts to squash our dreams, often unwittingly and with good intentions, but you have the power to convert that negativity into something that serves you.
