“Lissa’s coaching has given me a terrific boost. I’ve discovered a whole new way of working and have become much more productive as a result. I’ve even been able to adapt the spirit of her improvised exercises to my job as a technical writer at Google. Lissa has an uncanny ability to help people develop their own creative processes. She is a natural coach – not just with an instinct for people, storytelling and publishing, but with a deep, therapeutic empathy for the struggles of the soul. Better than therapy, because it’s about creativity!” -Sean Cotter, Google Writer
