Lisa’s story is one of the most relatable we’ve had on the show. She was a stay-at-home mom for 18 years. No Wall Street background. No big pile of capital. No “perfect” timing. Just a mindset shift, a willingness to ask, and the courage to figure it out in real time. What started with one uncomfortable offer on a house she didn’t want to list turned into a full-blown investing business built entirely on private money — without using her own cash or credit. We talk about imposter syndrome, asking for money without feeling like you’re begging, why good deals always find funding, and how introverts can still win big in networking rooms. Lisa opens up about writing her first book, stepping into leadership with Deal Maker, and why she’ll never retire — because she genuinely loves the game. If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t have the money,” or “I’m not that person,” this episode will challenge that narrative.
