I just got done taking Lisa’s 12 week Breakthrough Coaching Program back in April. Before this I worked privately 1:1 with one of her moderators. I had been in therapy a year before all of this and found that the private sessions I had for about six months with her moderator were more helpful than an entire year of therapy. This is why I chose to do the Breakthrough Coaching Program. I enjoyed the program but especially the meditations. Doing them religiously in the AM and PM. I was calmer at work (ICU nurse here), I was calmer setting boundaries, it was easier for me to cry and understand my feelings. The journaling prompts helped me a ton. I can say that I have never experienced sexual abuse in my life (though there was many other forms of abuse throughout my life) and the private Facebook group had people who had experienced things that I felt would need a special trauma counselor but Lisa and the moderators did explain that to people ahead of time and throughout the program as well. I never saw Lisa flaunt her wealth and the few times she did mention her house, family, or husband it just made me feel proud of her and also excited to continue to create a beautiful life for myself. It’s pure motivation but if someone already has jealous tendencies due to lack in their life, I can see how that would upset them. As far as advertising goes, I can say that I never once felt her push or pressure anyone into her Master Class. In fact I saw her write to someone that they were not ready for the Master class and should take more time for healing and NOT to purchase it. I have felt pressure from other “gurus” in the past and I am very picky with how I spend my money. I can tell you first hand that this entire experience was worth it for me. I see that it may not be for everyone. There are many people throughout many walks of life who might need a more one to one approach or more involved counseling. I felt Lisa and the moderators did a good job recommending using the program in combination with other modalities many times. Side note: I also used to be a person who wanted a quick fix or didn’t understand how hard the work would be to really turn your life around. I feel that this program is not for those type of people. There is going to be hard work, there is going to be processing trauma (that’s going to happen no matter what licenses therapist you see), it isn’t going to be easy or fun all the time. If you are someone who is needy for attention ( I can admit that I was and still am at times) then you might not like the private Facebook group and feel you are “competing for love”. The moderators always commented on every post even when Lisa couldn’t as did the community. I felt heard, seen, and held, and the times I felt needy I knew I had to practice self love so I did. Lisa mentioned a couple people who did the entire program without the Facebook page entirely and got so much out of it. I mean seriously you make the program work for you! If you are looking for someone licensed then find them. Not all licensed individuals are created equal and I can say that I have gotten a ton of wisdom and help from licensed and unlicensed personnel throughout life, sometimes the more experience you have the better. But if someone being licensed is important to you then you should seek that and that’s OK. I felt good about using this program. I am happy I have it for a minimum of three years and going to restart again soon. I’m currently pregnant and grateful that I took it before I give birth to my daughter, I can see all the ways I am able to do better for my children. I would recommend this course for anyone looking to heal trauma but as with anything do your research and realize that you may need more help than just one person or one modality and that’s OK!
