In the most approachable, playful, and practical ways imaginable, Lisa delivers on her promise to give you all the tools you need to step into a life of sustained joy and happiness. If you trust her, your life will be transformed, and how you see and interact with the world, yourself, and the people around you will be changed forever.”

Free Your Joy has a clear message; Joy is our natural state. This book is like a complete workshop that clearly explains how to remove all the clouds that stand between you and the sun of your natural state. However, it isn’t just philosophy, the book is filled from beginning to end with exercises because, as Lisa puts it, learning Joy is a path of doing. What stands out the most is the kindness on each page, as the author is so genuine and understanding as a guide. It would be impossible not to change your energy and get closer to who you truly are after reading this.
— Chris Niebauer, author of No Self No Problem: How Neurobiology Is Catching Up to Buddhism
" . . . I never thought I would connect the dots like Lisa’s words have guided me to do. I never thought I would ever read about one’s vibration described in such a loving and integrative manner. But I’m now ready for joy to come alive for me in a new way. If you have picked this book up, then I imagine you are ready for that too."
— S.C. Lourie, The Power of Mess
