S1E16 - Finding Calm: Healing, Growth, and Becoming through the C.A.L.M. Method (with Lisa Lacy)

Tonight’s episode features a deeply meaningful conversation with my incredible coach and mentor, Lisa Lacy, the visionary behind the C.A.L.M. MethodConscious Awareness & Liberation Model. Lisa joined me live to explore the work we’ve been doing together in her 12-week program, which is already transforming how I show up for myself, my business, and this show. Lisa brings over 30 years of experience in healthcare education, trauma recovery, and emotional intelligence. Her lived experience navigating complex trauma, a rare blood disorder, and a mental health prognosis of "poor to none" has fueled her mission to guide others back to themselves through nervous system regulation, somatic healing, and deep self-awareness. In this episode, we dive into:

  • The foundations of the C.A.L.M. Method
  • What it means to heal from the inside out
  • My personal growth through intention setting, journaling, and cognitive reframing
  • How somatic practices and emotional intelligence are helping me evolve Blissful Connections

This is just part one of our journey — Lisa will return soon for a follow-up to go deeper into topics like holding space, trauma-informed boundaries, and the role of personality frameworks in healing.
