Why Lisa Mustard chose to be in the helping profession

In my late twenties, I grappled with challenges in both my personal relationships and career. It was then that I heeded my mother's advice and sought therapy. In a surprisingly short period, I underwent a profound transformation. I gained invaluable insights into my behavioral patterns within relationships and began taking responsibility for my emotions, thoughts, and actions. Moreover, I came to understand that a fulfilling career doesn't necessarily entail a constant struggle against my weaknesses, but rather, it's about harnessing my strengths. This remarkable change fueled my desire to guide others toward discovering tranquility, joy, and contentment in their lives. By the age of 31, I had embarked on a journey to become a Marriage and Family Therapist.

Fast forward to my early forties, I found myself in what many label as a 'midlife crisis.' However, during this introspective phase, I harnessed the power of perspective. Instead of viewing it as a crisis, I wholeheartedly embraced it as a 'midlife reinvention.' From that pivotal moment onwards, I've been wholeheartedly dedicated to supporting women aged 35 and above as they navigate the myriad challenges that midlife can present, whether in relationships, health, careers, or parenting.

Lisa Mustard's approach

While I proudly hold a license as a Marriage and Family Therapist, I want to emphasize that our coaching sessions won't follow the traditional therapy route. Instead, my role as your life coach is to guide you on a transformative journey. Together, we'll unearth the bedrock of your core values, courageously confront any beliefs that may have been holding you back, and collaboratively craft a roadmap for your personal growth. My aim is to empower you to lead a life that's not just authentic but profoundly aligned with your true self.

What you can expect from sessions with Lisa Mustard

I approach our sessions with an open mind and a commitment to meeting you where you currently stand. I have no preconceived notions about 'who you should be' or 'how you ought to present yourself'. My primary role is to be an attentive listener, asking thought-provoking questions, and together, we'll construct a customized strategy to propel you toward your aspirations, no matter what they may entail.

In the intervals between our sessions, it's essential for you to translate our discussions into real-life action. Transformation is not solely about reflection; it demands proactive steps. Some strategies we develop together will profoundly reshape your journey, while others may resonate less. Your feedback will guide our sessions and your progress with every experience providing valuable lessons and contributing to your personal growth.

Lisa Mustard's experience working with the Jewish community

Throughout my career as a life coach and therapist, I've had the honor of connecting with the Jewish community, and it has been a deeply enriching experience. My passion has always been to provide guidance and support to individuals from diverse backgrounds. Given my profound interest in personal development, I genuinely appreciate and embrace the distinct aspirations, strengths, and challenges that members of the Jewish community bring to the forefront. I approach every coaching session with a completely open mind, devoid of any preconceived notions tied to religion or family customs. Instead, I hold a deep belief in the transformative power of religious beliefs in shaping our life journeys.

Within my coaching space, I have cultivated a nurturing and inclusive environment where clients can freely explore their goals, identity, and aspirations, all while considering their religious heritage. I have witnessed firsthand the profound influence of faith in guiding life choices and perspectives. This insight enables me to offer guidance that resonates deeply, recognizing and celebrating the significance of their religious identity.

Each individual I have the privilege of working with brings a unique story and vision. By attuning myself to the religious and cultural intricacies of their lives, I can align with their specific aspirations and challenges. Whether I'm assisting someone from the Jewish community or any other background, my core mission remains unwavering - to empower them with the utmost respect, understanding, and support, thus enabling them to navigate their life's journey with confidence and purpose.
