About

Lisa A. Romano Bestselling Author, Empowerment Coach, Speaker

Bestselling author, Lisa A. Romano is a codependent advocate who specializes in empowering those who have been emotionally wounded, and especially as children.  She believes that anyone can overcome any past trauma, if they are willing to give themselves permission to integrate the pain they perhaps have denied along their life path.  But she also believes that unless the being is willing to let go of the pain once it has been expressed, life will not improve as beautifully as it possibly could.  Her approach is one that embraces the wounds of the past, while at same time an eye is set upon a future point in time.  The goal is to help her readers and clients think above and beyond the trauma so to help teach them how to become masters of their own destinies, while at same time, coaching them to release their need to see themselves as victims.

"Staying 'attached' to our pasts provides us with sort of a shield.  If we never let go, at least we know what to expect.  Letting go of the past is a scary thing to do.  Fears of the unknown, although they are unrealistic in theory, are like the boogie men we believed were hiding under our beds when we were small children.  To the person experiencing the fear, the unknowns are as crippling as concrete fears.  Because I understand what needs to be done on an intellectual and emotional level in order to heal completely, I also understand that unless one is willing to accept that they willingly stay 'stuck' to the past as a means to control their current circumstances, and unless they are willing to humble themselves enough to let that need to control go--they will only continue to attract more dissatisfying situations into their life experience.  But--if they learn to have just a little bit of faith, and if I can get my clients and readers to have faith in what I have to offer--then lives can transform quickly."

Lisa's books are about healing on a heart, mind, and soul level.  Regardless of what your personal issues, pains, or woes are, Lisa's writing and lectures are full of warm wisdom.  Her personal approach is one woven with a huge, soft heart but with a dash of tough love.  She is the mother we all should have had, gentle, wise, encouraging, strong, confident, forgiving, understanding and most importantly--accepting.
