I tried what most women try — elimination diets, fitness programs, supplements, and the occasional weekend retreat. Some of it helped. None of it lasted because none of it was designed for me specifically.
When I began studying Ayurveda, I understood why. My body wasn’t broken — it was just being managed with tools built for someone else. Once I started working with my constitution instead of against it, everything changed. Energy I hadn’t felt in years. Digestion that finally made sense. A sense of ease in my own body that I’d honestly forgotten was possible.

Fundamentals Of Ayurvedic Medicine - 2 Year Counselor

Lisa received her certification as an Ayurveda Health Counselor through Joyful Belly College of Ayurveda. Joyful Belly is licensed by the state of North Carolina to teach Ayurveda, reflecting a formal educational standard not common among many Ayurvedic training programs in the United States. 

The long way to the obvious answer.

“I don’t teach Ayurveda as a philosophy. I teach it as a practice" — one that I live every single day.”

That transformation is what I now bring to every client. Not a system I studied in a book, but a way of living I’ve tested, refined, and rebuilt my own health around.

The training behind the practice.

I hold formal credentials as an Ayurvedic Health Counselor and Yoga Teacher, with years of continued study in seasonal living, digestive health, and the intersection of Ayurveda and modern longevity science.

What I believe about health.

I believe your body is not your enemy. It’s your most intelligent collaborator — and it’s been communicating with you your entire life. Most of us were never taught to listen.
I believe sustainable health isn’t built through restriction and willpower. It’s built through understanding of your constitution, your season of life, and the rhythms that govern all living things.
And I believe that the women who thrive most are the ones who stop outsourcing their health to generic programs and start working with a practitioner who sees them fully.
That is what I show up to do every single day.

If this resonates, I’d love to connect.

I work with a small number of women each year in a deeply personal partnership. If you’re ready to find out whether we’d be a good fit, the first step is a conversation.
