When work or business starts to feel misaligned, our instinct is often to move - but what if the answer isn’t escape, it’s alignment?

Episode Summary:
Have you ever found yourself in a role or situation that looks fine on the surface but doesn’t quite feel right underneath?

In this reflective solo episode, Lisa shares a story from her coaching practice that opens up a deeper conversation about values - what they really mean, how they shape our choices, and why living in alignment with them changes everything.

It’s a gentle yet powerful reminder that when we make decisions purely to get away from discomfort, we often recreate the same patterns in new places.

But when we pause to understand what truly matters to us - and take responsibility for honouring those values in our daily lives - that’s when things begin to shift in a lasting way.

In this episode, Lisa explores:

• The difference between moving away from something and moving towards what genuinely fits.

• Why understanding and living your values changes how you show up in work and life.

• Dr. John F. DeMartini’s perspective on how our values often grow from what we once lacked - and how recognising that can be deeply healing.

• Simple reflection questions to help you reconnect with what really matters and make choices that feel like home.

This episode is perfect for anyone standing at a crossroads, feeling restless, stuck, or ready for a change but unsure what that next step should truly be.

If you’ve ever felt like you might be “jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire,” this episode will help you pause, breathe, and find clarity before you leap.
