Describe happy whole women.
Happy Whole Human wellness is a state of balanced health that we all can aspire to regardless of where we start.
So what does that look like for women?
Happy Whole Human women enjoy a life balance by making time to eat well, live actively, manage stress and feelings effectively, and take good care of the important people in their lives.
Holistic wellness can be achieved by reclaiming our lives with intention, changing our thinking, and learning to manage our anxiety—allowing our desire for happiness, health, and fulfillment to motivate us more than fear.
Happy Whole Human women don’t have to be perfect or win any contests. Instead, they are compassionate and aware enough to create and sustain rewarding, results-oriented relationships where they don’t lose themselves or try to control other people.
“At the institute, we have created ICF-accredited e-courses that train coaches to use our Happy Whole Human assessment and paradigm-shifting program to evoke awareness, earn trust, and empower clients to be their most authentic self and achieve their goals,” says Dr. Lisa. The online training program focuses first and foremost on community: giving coaches valuable opportunities to practice their skills in a safe environment as they grow physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially. The institute’s instructors act as consistent, ethical, transparent, and reliable guides and incorporate hands-on learning, projects, and individual work, with the goal of maximizing learning and engagement.
How can we create leaders?
There are all kinds of leaders, but I believe the world needs servant leaders who focus on what works and are willing to bring in the best people to work together with to achieve positive results for all stakeholders.
The best leaders have a strong sense of what they and the organization are ultimately about and a sense of purpose. They empower people to think for themselves, make mistakes, learn, change, and grow. Great leaders give their team members enough structure and support to succeed.
The health of an organization is very related to the health of the leaders…it starts at the top. To reach future mandates, it is important to create a culture where people can feel psychologically safe enough to innovate, communicate, and collaborate.
Phenomenal leaders work towards win/win/win solutions for all stakeholders.
We have to be agile to innovate, survive and thrive. To be agile, we have to be paying attention to what is going on within and around you. We cannot be too attached to the way things should be. we have to be willing to accept whatever is happening and be able to incorporate creativity into goal setting so that we can adapt to changing circumstances.
Sharing, collaborative relationships characterized by mutuality (care for others and oneself) not only benefit the involved individuals, but make our organizations and initiatives both more stable and nimble. In our rapidly changing world, cultivating our capacity for compassionate, stable, innovative, and intentional approaches is key to staying healthy, productive, and fulfilled.
What was your inspiration for founding Happy Whole Human Institute?
I am dedicated to lifelong continuous improvement as a Happy Whole Human. I suffered complex PTSD growing up in a family in which mental illness wreaked havoc and have devoted my life to reconnecting to my inherent wholeness and happiness so that I can thrive and empower others to do the same. Creating a validated holistic wellness program that will help others Happy Whole Humanize their lives and relationships much more quickly and easily than I did is a way that I transmute all the pain I went through into something profoundly positive for me and the world.
How has your coaching philosophy evolved over the years? What is its current core operation?
Over the 18 years I have been coaching, my philosophy has evolved to bring data and humanity together to foster individual and organizational health in meaningful, measurable, and lasting ways. At this point, my coaching incorporates both conventional and data-driven approaches (in the form of a validated assessment and corresponding program), and holistic, creative, and somatic approaches (via modalities such as reframing mindsets, energy work, and alchemical hypnosis to unleash the innate capacity of individuals to harness the power of their own creativity and wisdom in the process of self-actualization). I now work primarily as an executive leadership coach and teach and train coaches at the Happy Whole Human Holistic Wellness Institute, one of only a handful of schools internationally to be Level 1, 2, and 3 accredited by the International Coaching Federation.
How does Happy Whole Human Institute support leaders with their personal and professional goals?
We help executive teams at companies like Whole Foods Market, Aetna CVS Health, and Texas Monthly create a more vibrant and productive workforce with a validated next-generation health risk assessment and corresponding holistic wellness coaching, empowering leaders to improve their personal well-being, professional performance, and relationship dynamics. Our aggregate reporting, management consulting, and team offerings allow leaders of companies of all sizes to measure, monitor, and improve employee wellness. We provide an agile mechanism to identify strengths and hidden risk factors and develop validated initiatives and interventions to reduce health costs, turnover, and conflict.
As a woman in leadership, what advice other women leaders?
My advice to women leaders is:
Grow yourself as you grow the business. You can take care of yourself and give more to your organization.
Stay lean and agile. We have to adapt to thrive.
Be tough…think for yourself and stand firm in what you believe.
Find a balance of advocating for yourself and empowering others.
Stay attuned to all stakeholders (including nature) and work towards win/win/win results and solutions.
Is success a matter of staying focused? What other elements play a vital role in helping leaders achieve success?
It is true that focus is vital to success, and perhaps the only thing we can control. What we focus on grows, so focusing on personal fulfillment and organizational health and showing up to the challenges of the moment with presence, curiosity, and confidence is certainly key to long-term success.Engagement with stakeholders, a learning mindset, and setting others up for success are also very important. A leader has to both inspire by example, and empower their team members.
