We’ve all had those moments when life pulls the rug from under us - a job loss, a relationship ending, bills piling up. It feels heavy, overwhelming, and impossible to see a way forward.

In this first coaching episode of the new season, Lisa shares how to stop negative bias taking over, and instead use tough times to build strength and clarity. Drawing on her own story, she’ll walk you through three practical steps you can start using today to feel lighter, more resilient, and back in control.

Short, real, and actionable-this is coaching without the fluff.

🌟 A message from Lisa:

I’ve faced many challenges in life, experiencing love and laughter, to heartache and perseverance. Each experience has shaped me, teaching resilience, growth and compassion for others.

Here’s a quick look at my journey:

- My parents divorced when I was 2.

- I won a drama school scholarship at 18, pursuing my dream of working in TV.

- I travelled solo through Southeast Asia and Australia, facing a near-death experience along the way!

- I adapted to life as a single parent after my beautiful daughter’s birth in 2006 and built a career in Commercial Real Estate.

- I reconnected with a childhood friend who had lost his first wife. In 2011 we married and became a blended family and I became a step parent to my 2 eldest children whom I love dearly.

- I helped expand my brother’s wedding business to Mallorca and began bodybuilding, competing in 2016 and 2017.

- I now work as a Director in the Flexible Office industry and am building my coaching practice and podcast.

- My next goal is to move to Spain and create a life by the sea!

💫 I’ve learned that life is full of opportunities if you just look up and reach for them.

Let me help you discover yours ❤️

Real Women’s Stories is back after the summer break with all-new episodes - and we’re starting with an unmissable conversation.

This week, Lisa speaks with business mentor and “expert’s expert” Helen Tudor, who went from £90,000 of personal debt to building a 6-figure business and making over £1 million in revenue in just one year.

Helen opens up about being bullied at school, battling mental health challenges, and the rock-bottom moment that forced her to change everything. She shares the exact steps she took to create a thriving business, how she dealt with the people who didn’t believe in her, and why being unapologetically yourself is the key to lasting success.

If you’ve ever felt stuck by debt, doubt, or fear of failure - Helen’s story will show you what’s possible when you decide to take control.

Why are we still so awkward about money?

In this episode of Real Women’s Stories, business and financial coach Ruth Gilbey sits down with Lisa to unpack why so many women feel shame, fear, or guilt around their finances - and what we can do to change that.

Ruth shares her deeply personal journey: from managing a thriving business in her 20s, to experiencing burnout and a breast cancer diagnosis that forced her to slow down and rethink everything, including her relationship with money.

Together, they discuss:

• Why women struggle to talk about money openly
• How childhood experiences shape our financial beliefs
• The surprising link between self-worth and spending
• Why every woman needs to check her pension contributions today
• How Ruth turned crisis into clarity - and started earning more by doing less

Whether you're drowning in spreadsheets, just starting your own business, or trying to teach your kids financial literacy, this episode is for you.

In this moving episode of Real Women’s Stories, Lisa Quait sits down with Max -once known as “Mad Max,” but in truth, a woman of profound strength and compassion. Max bravely shares how she went from a seemingly perfect life to the depths of a nervous breakdown, facing menopause, grief, ADHD, and the unravelling of her marriage during lockdown.

Together, Lisa and Max explore the realities of gaslighting, the hidden toll of keeping up appearances, and the healing power of self-trust and asking for help. Max’s story is a testament to rediscovery: how she found her voice, rebuilt her life as a coach, and learned to embrace every crease in her story.

If you’ve ever felt you were losing yourself - or watched someone you love fall apart - this episode will remind you that healing is possible, and that even in your darkest moments, there is always a golden lining.

What happens when the coach becomes the one who needs help?

In this deeply honest solo episode, Lisa Quait opens up about a recent burnout she didn’t see coming - until it floored her.

It started with a client’s overwhelm… and ended with her own crash. IBS flare-ups, emotional exhaustion, and missed family moments were just the surface.

Lisa shares the physical and emotional signs she ignored, how her coach (and her husband) helped her stop, and why listening to your triggers might just save you.

This is your permission to pause, reflect, and ask: What does overwhelm really feel like for me? Am I listening to what my body’s trying to say?
