Launching this website is an exciting new beginning, and I’m grateful you’re here.

I created Empowered to Change for women in transition—whether you’re navigating a life change, career shift, retirement, leadership growth, or simply asking, “What’s next for me?”

You might be an executive used to leading others while quietly questioning your next step. You might be a stay-at-home mom who has poured into everyone else and is now ready to rediscover herself. You might be somewhere in between, knowing that what worked before no longer fits.

This space is for you.

In this weekly blog, I’ll share short, practical reflections on topics like:

• Resilience – getting back up when life doesn’t go as planned
• Confidence – rebuilding trust in yourself when doubt is loud
• Purpose – clarifying what truly matters in this season
• Leadership – showing up authentically at work and at home
• Transitions – giving yourself permission to change

My intention is to offer grounded support—tools, questions, and perspectives you can use in real life, in the middle of meetings, errands, and caregiving.

Coaching creates space for you to:

• Hear your own voice
• Name what you truly want
• See what’s getting in the way
• Take small, meaningful steps toward a more aligned life

If you see yourself in these words, I’d love to stay connected.

Curious about coaching? You can schedule a conversation with me here https://calendly.com/glisa-byrd/new-meeting or feel free to email me at lisa@lisabyrd.com. We will explore whether coaching is a good fit.

Thank you for being here at the beginning. I’m looking forward to walking alongside you, one week and one small step at a time.

My Story: From Brokenness to Breakthrough (and How It Can Be Yours Too)

Hey friends! I’m Lisa, and I’m thrilled you’re here. You know, life rarely hands us a perfect script. Mine certainly didn’t. Growing up, I experienced things that no child should – a home that should have been safe became a place of abuse. I carried that feeling of “not enough” for far too long. But here’s the thing: even in those dark times, a tiny voice inside whispered, “You’re meant for more”. 

That whisper fueled a journey – through the military, marriage, motherhood, and a relentless pursuit of success. I climbed the ladder, earned the degrees, became a healthcare executive. Yet, I still felt a void. Success and titles weren’t the answer. 

What was the answer? Purpose. Realizing that changed everything. It’s why I became a John Maxwell Certified Coach and created “Empowered to Change.” I’m here to tell you: your past doesn’t define you – your resilience does. If you’re ready to break free and discover your own breakthrough, you’re in the right place.
