Lisa Nichols was only in her 20s and had already been fired from five different jobs. Then she unexpectedly fell pregnant. When she was eight months along, her son’s father was incarcerated. Lisa found herself in a downward spiral and she could barely afford diapers for her baby. She looked in the mirror and noticed the only asset that she owned was her voice.
It was while staring at the mirror that she imagined how she would motivate others into greatness and her path to being a motivational speaker began. These unfortunate experiences led Lisa to a path of self-awareness, which Business, Executive and Life Coach Mary Waceke Muia says, can only come from within for every individual.
