A note from Lisa :
Get a Life! came to manifestation as a result of an intent I put out sometime ago. In order to bring it to fruition I have been on a long journey to Get a Life! You see, in order to bring Get a Life! to life... I had to wake up! That’s right, wake up! Maybe you’ve done it yourself, you’re drifting along through life, day after day, and showing up to life just as you did yesterday. Then it happens.... sometimes it’s a gentle nudge, a fleeting thought... “There must be more to life than this” or “Is this it? Is this all there is?” or for others it hits like a sledgehammer or demolition ball... shaking you to your very core. For me it was I guess a few nudges to begin with, but I simply didn’t listen, I kept on doing what I did in the same way I’d always done, thinking that’s just what you do. But when the universe calls to your spirit and you don’t listen, then it calls again and if you still don’t listen; as was the case in my journey, then its shouts at the top of it’s voice for you to wake up, my shout came in the form of severe post natal depression after the birth of my beautiful daughter Sarah, over 28 years ago, followed by M.E. (myalgic encephalomyelitis) Crazy but true...... It took a debilitating illness to make me wake up to my spirit’s call! Many years down the line, I have been on a long and life transforming journey of which I’m truly grateful, I might add. My journey has taken me through the wonders of complementary therapy, letting go of my old corporate career, developing my spirituality, a divorce, ups and downs and rounds and rounds, until I was ready to Get a Life! and in turn help others. Today, I’m wide awake, in perfect health, blissfully happy with myself, my life, the love of my life my husband Jon, my wonderful daughter Sarah( who has taught me so much and continues to do so), my loving family (now much extended to include Jon’s lovely girls Olivia and Rachel) and my wonderful friends.....I have become a very different human being to the old Lisa. I have evolved. Before I was all about “doing” now I’m about “Being” The gift I was given, my wake-up call, allowed me to follow my true calling. In order that I can now live on purpose. I Got a Life! I hope that this page may bring you great pleasure and allow you to wake-up gently, bringing your true spirit to light. Namaste Lisa x

Tomorrow, something called the “Great Synchronisation” is happening (March 21 at 5pm GMT), and I can’t help but feel excited about it.
It’s not an official event, and it’s not scientific, just a beautiful, grassroots idea spreading across the world.
The concept is simple but powerful: people everywhere pause at the exact same time for a few minutes (around 5 minutes), wherever they are and just… stop. No rules, no structure, just a shared moment of stillness and focus on intentions like peace, love, unity and respect.
Imagine thousands...even millions...of people, strangers across the globe, all taking a breath together. That’s the hope: that in a simple pause, we can feel connected, grounded and reminded that we’re not alone in this world.
And the timing couldn’t be more poetic, following the equinox, a symbol of balance and new beginnings. Maybe it’s a reminder that we can create small moments of harmony together, even in the midst of chaos.
I’ll be joining in and I hope you’ll consider it too. Pause, breathe and let yourself feel the collective heartbeat of humanity.
Who knows? Maybe a few minutes of intention from all of us can ripple out in ways we can’t yet imagine.

Today it’s my turn…
The wonderful Museum of Me continues in Lincoln, and today my exhibition is open at The Lawn from 10am–5pm.
I’ll be there for the ribbon cutting ceremony at 4pm and staying until 5pm, so if you’re around please do pop in and say hello. I’d absolutely love to see some friendly faces.
Being part of this project has been incredibly special. Each exhibition celebrates a different woman from our city — their journeys, passions, heritage and the things that have shaped their lives. It’s such a thoughtful and creative way to celebrate the women of Lincoln.
If you can’t make it today, please do try and visit on the other days too. There are some amazing women being featured, Next week's exhibition will be at the Lincoln arts centre:
Thu 19th: Barbara Cecillia Soares — a social justice champion and proud dog mum, originally from Macau.
Fri 20th: Burcu Güney Yılmaz — PhD student, lecturer and professional musician from Turkey.
Sat 21st: Alex Foxley-Wood — communications manager, wildlife lover and environmental activist.
Sun 22nd: Demi Gilchrist — musical theatre student and former Deputy Spalding Flower Queen.
Then from 25–30 March, the exhibition moves to Lincoln Cathedral Dean’s Garden for Believe in Change, celebrating even more inspiring women including Alice McMaster, Dorothy Moss, Jane Cowan, Sharon McMaster, Jo Blanchard and Rowena King.
Every day tells a different story, and every story adds something special to the rich tapestry of women who call Lincoln home.
If you’re able to visit — today or on any of the other days — please do. It really is a beautiful project.
And if you come along today… remember there will be tea and biscuits waiting too ☕🍪

The Museum Of Me
Is happening throughoutMarch in Lincoln celebrating womanhood, ive just received the images taken by photographer
Let's take some look at the lyrics to see what message they may hold :
"We're leaving together
But still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back
To earth, who can tell?
I guess there is no one to blame
We're leaving ground (leaving ground)
Will things ever be the same again?
… It's the final countdown
… The final countdown
… Oh-oh
We're heading for Venus and still we stand tall
'Cause maybe they've seen us and welcome us all, yeah
With so many light years to go and things to be found (to be found)
I'm sure that we'll all miss her so
… It's the final countdown
… The final countdown
… The final countdown (the final countdown)
(Oh) oh-oh-oh
… The final countdown, oh-oh
It's the final countdown
… The final countdown
… The final countdown (the final countdown)
… Oh
It's the final countdown!
We're leaving together
The final countdown
We'll all miss her so
It's the final countdown (the final countdown)
(Oh) it's the final countdown"
A feeling of leaving behind the world we once knew and stepping into a new world perhaps?
The "final countdown" refers to the last, critical moments of anticipation or preparation before a major, often momentous event.
According to lead singer Joey Tempest, the song was inspired by a mix of David Bowie's "Space Oddity" and a desire to create a "leaving Earth" soundtrack, representing a departure into the unknown, almost describing the final days before a significant, life-changing event.
The line " We're heading for Venus" jumps out to me.
A symbol of transformation and rebirth, Venus moves between appearing as the Morning Star and Evening Star, symbolising a cyclical journey of inner transformation, depth and emotional growth.
So some big themes this month it would seem.
Let's take a look at our cards:
First out, from the major arcana we have 20 Judgement.This is the call that cannot be unheard.Judgement is not about punishment here; it’s about recognition.
On a collective level, this card speaks of a mass awakening, realisation or reckoning
Information, truths, or consequences surfacing that can no longer be ignored.
A sense of “this chapter has run its course”
In the “leaving Earth” metaphor, Judgement is the moment when the launch sequence begins. It's time.
Old identities (national, economic, ideological, even planetary) can no longer hold.
This aligns strongly with the lyric:
“Will things ever be the same again?”
Judgement’s answer is always: No.... and that’s the point.
I feel our souls are being called to remember why we came here, why we incarnated here on earth at this precise moment, it feels like a remembering, of our soul's blueprint.
Next out is the Ace of Cups. The new frequency is emotional, not structural.
The Ace of Cups pours something entirely different into the world:
A new emotional baseline.A reset of what we value, feel and respond to. A re-opening of the heart after shock or revelation.
Collectively, this can show up as:
A wave of grief and compassion.
A longing for meaning, connection and soul-level belonging.
A softening after intensity, even if circumstances remain challenging.
Venus as Morning/Evening Star mirrors the Ace of Cups’ energy:
A rebirth of values.
Love and beauty re-emerging after descent.
Emotional truth becoming the guiding compass.
This is the “we’ll all miss her so” moment.
The grief of leaving something behind, even when we know we must.
I feel there will be overflowing emotions but also intuition becoming stronger.
Interestingly as I look at the card it reminds me of the fountains in Dubai outside the mall there, this feels significant.
The turquoise water links me to the higher heart/ thymus chakra and spiritual growth and change/ evolution.
Beneath the cup is a dark void with fish which make me think of koi.
Koi are famous for swimming upstream, against strong currents. Spiritually, this represents:
Endurance through emotional or spiritual challenges.
The ability to keep going even when the path is difficult.
Soul resilience, not brute force, but steady devotion.
Koi often signal that the hardest part has already been survived.
In mythology, a koi that successfully swims upstream and leaps the Dragon Gate transforms into a dragon.
Spiritually this suggests:
Initiation after long effort.
Souls graduating to a higher state of awareness.
Transformation earned through experience, not shortcuts.
This fits strongly with themes of Judgement and rebirth, a passage has been completed.
I'm also shown a white lotus flower again this symbolism is important.
The white lotus grows in muddy, dark water, yet emerges pristine and luminous.
The white lotus is strongly linked to:
The higher heart (thymus) chakra.
Christ / Buddha consciousness (compassion, mercy, grace).
Love that transcends attachment
This mirrors my intuitive sense that this isn’t about personal love, but universal love made embodied.
When the white lotus appears it often signals:
The end of a long karmic loop.
The closing of a soul chapter.
Readiness to carry wisdom forward rather than repeat lessons.
It is a symbol of spiritual maturity.
The interesting thing about the lotus is that it grows out of the darkness into the light.... with disclosure we are witnessing in the world and current news, this seems very pertinent.... it seems we cannot bypass the darkness, we must grow and evolve through it.
Our final card this month is 7 The Chariot. Love Takes the Reins
And then… we move.
The Chariot doesn’t hesitate.
Momentum is engaged.
What draws my eye immediately is the crab on his chest, unmistakably Cancerian energy. The guardian of the inner world. The protector of emotional truth. The one who leads from the heart.
I’m strongly linked here to the King of Cups archetype, emotional mastery, compassion, quiet strength. This raises the question:
Will a leader with this sun sign step forward?
Or perhaps a leader embodying these qualities?
Not dominance.
Not force.
But emotional intelligence as power.
Above it all, at the tip of his wand, a star glows...divine guidance, cosmic alignment, destiny steering the path.
This is not chaotic movement.
This is directed.
Opposites are held, not eliminated.
Love becomes the fuel.
Purpose becomes the compass.
The phrase echoes through this card like a whisper on the wind:
“On the wings of love.”
We are not being dragged into the future.
We are choosing it.

Tomorrow we witness Saturn conjunct Neptune at 0° Aries and I want you to understand just how rare this is.
Saturn and Neptune meet roughly every 36–37 years. Their last conjunction was in 1989 in Capricorn and look at what unfolded then. The structures of power (Capricorn) dissolved. The Berlin Wall fell. Political systems reconfigured. Governments shifted. Reality itself seemed to reorganise.
That was Saturn (structure) meeting Neptune (dissolution) in the sign of institutions.
But this time?
They meet at 0° Aries.
The Aries Point.
The first degree of the entire zodiac.
The cosmic ignition spark.
Now here is the part that makes this moment extraordinary:
A Saturn–Neptune conjunction at 0° Aries is so rare that the last time something comparable occurred was thousands of years ago, astrologers track it back to around 4360 BCE. That’s over six thousand years ago. We are talking deep civilisational reset cycles.
This is not just another transit.
This is archetypal renewal.
Saturn is bones, karma, responsibility, the scaffolding of reality.
Neptune is spirit, dream, illusion, mysticism, the dissolver of falsehood.
When they meet, illusions collapse, but so do outdated structures. And at 0° Aries, what is reborn is identity itself.
Individually and collectively.
This is spirit demanding embodiment.
This is dream asking for discipline.
This is faith requiring form.
And Aries does not whisper.
Aries initiates.
Tarot Spread for the Saturn–Neptune Conjunction at 0° Aries
This is a threshold spread.
A rite-of-passage layout. Work with it slowly.
Light a candle. Breathe. This is not surface work.
1 — The Seed of the New Era
What is being initiated in my life now?
This is your personal ignition point.
2 — Saturn: The Structure
Where must I mature, commit, take responsibility?
What requires real scaffolding?
No bypassing here.
3 — Neptune: The Vision
What dream is asking to be made real?
Where has illusion been hiding?
Discernment is key.
4 — The Collective Field
How is this conjunction showing up in the world around me?
What am I sensing shifting in leadership, systems, belief structures?
Remember 1989. Structures fell. Ideals reshaped governments.
What is dissolving now?
5 — The Aries Point: Identity Rebirth
Who am I becoming?
What old version of me can no longer survive in this new cycle?
This is the shedding card.
6 — The Shadow
Where am I confused, avoiding, spiritualising something that needs action, or controlling something that needs surrender?
Saturn without Neptune becomes rigid.
Neptune without Saturn becomes delusion.
Balance them.
7 — Embodied Action
What must I do to anchor this new era in my life?
Aries demands movement.
Even one decisive step changes timelines.
The Energy We’re Stepping Into
The last time Saturn and Neptune met (1989), global systems shifted.
This time they meet at the birth point of the zodiac.
You may feel:
• A dissolving of old ambitions
• A questioning of authority, including your own
• Spiritual clarity cutting through fantasy
• A call to build something that truly matters
• A fierce urge to begin again
This is not dreamy escapism.
This is disciplined mysticism.
Saturn says: “Make it real.”
Neptune says: “Make it meaningful.”
Aries says: “Start.”
And because this cycle lasts 36–37 years, what you choose to initiate now will echo.
We are not just living through history.
We are midwifing it.
Sit with your cards.
Listen carefully.
A new identity is forming, personally and collectively.
And if you can feel the weight of that?
Good.
That’s Saturn.
If you can feel the vision rising anyway?
Good.
That’s Neptune.
Now breathe fire into it.
That’s Aries.

Shrove Tuesday.
The day we flip pancakes… but rarely flip our consciousness.
Traditionally, Shrove Tuesday (from the word shrive; to confess and be absolved) was the final day before Lent began on Ash Wednesday. It was a clearing day. A purging day. A “let me empty myself before I enter a sacred fast” day.
And the pancakes?
Not random. Not indulgent for indulgence sake.
They were made to use up rich foods; eggs (life force), milk (nurture), flour (the harvest), sugar (sweetness), all the things traditionally given up for the 40 days leading to Easter.
So beneath the lemon and sugar is a ritual.
A circle of batter poured into a pan; the sun.
Golden. Whole. Returning light.
A reminder that fasting is not punishment.
It is refinement.
Spiritually, Shrove Tuesday is about:
• Confession (where am I out of alignment?)
• Release (what am I carrying that is heavy?)
• Intention (what am I consciously choosing to cleanse?)
It is the threshold between indulgence and discipline. Between winter and spring. Between ego and essence.
There is also a collective sense of preparation building. We are on the cusp of seasonal shift. The light is increasing. The body knows it. The psyche knows it. Something is ending. Something is quietly gathering strength.
Pancakes, in their simple circular form, remind us of cycles.
What have you been over-consuming?
Emotionally. Spiritually. Digitally.
What would it feel like to consciously fast from that?
Not from a place of restriction.
But from sovereignty.
Shrove Tuesday is not about guilt.
It is about recalibration.
Flip the pancake.
Flip the narrative.
Flip the habit.
And enter the next season lighter.

🔥🐎 The Threshold: The Year of the Fire Horse 🐎🔥
Tomorrow, 17th February 2026, we cross into the Year of the Fire Horse, a cycle that returns only once every 60 years and carries a long, charged memory.
Fire Horse years have never been quiet in human history.
Going back as far as records allow, these years are consistently linked with rupture, rebellion, accelerated change and radical independence.
They tend to coincide with moments when systems strain, truths surface and people refuse to live inside systems and structures that no longer fit.
Historically, Fire Horse years have marked:
* Uprisings and revolutions
* Radical social reform
* Technological leaps
* Cultural shockwaves
* A collective rejection of imposed authority
In 1966, the last Fire Horse year, the world witnessed global civil unrest, youth rebellion, cultural revolution and the breaking apart of long-held social norms.
In 1906, another Fire Horse year, massive earthquakes reshaped cities, empires shifted, and modernity accelerated.
Further back: 1846, 1786, 1726 we again see patterns of political instability, ideological revolt, migration and the collapse of outdated power structures.
The Fire Horse archetype does not destroy for chaos’ sake.
It burns what has outlived its truth.
And now… here we are again.
Astrologically, tomorrow is no coincidence.
The Fire Horse year begins under a New Moon , solar eclipse in Aquarius the sign of awakening, rebellion, truth and future vision. Aquarius doesn’t tweak the old system; it outgrows it.
Behind this moment, the deeper skies are shifting:
Pluto in Aquarius continues the long dismantling of false authority, inherited power and performative identity.
Saturn in Aries opens a karmic chapter around courage, leadership and self-responsibility. No more waiting. No more outsourcing your authority.
Neptune in Aries dissolves old identities and asks us to act from soul, not conditioning.
Uranus keeps pulling the rug from under what was never stable to begin with.
This does not feel like a “new year” in the conventional sense.
It feels like a historical echo.
A remembering.
A moment where the body knows change is already underway, even if the mind can’t yet articulate it.
So I’m curious…
How are you feeling on this threshold?
Restless? Activated? Done with pretending?
Ready to move, or resisting the call?
Standing in the not-knowing, sensing something is about to break open?
Fire Horse years don’t ask for perfection.
They ask for truth, courage and movement.
Listen to where the fire is stirring; in your body, your choices, your willingness to stop negotiating with what you already know.
I’d love to hear your experience!

A little permission slip for the polymaths, pattern-seers and “I’ve-never-fit-in-one-box” people (yes, I mean me too):
For years I thought my wide-ranging mind was something to manage.
Too many interests. Too many lenses. Too much “Lisa’s hippy sh*t” sitting alongside leadership theory, psychology, holistic therapy, astrology, numerology, tarot, Chinese Astrology, ritual, strategy… honestly ...pick a lane 🙄
Turns out… I was in my lane.It just happens to be a multi-lane system.
My astrology has always told this story.
An Aquarius Sun wired for systems, patterns and future thinking.
A Libra Moon that instinctively holds multiple perspectives and looks for meaning, balance and humanity.
Leo rising, which means all of that knowledge is meant to be embodied, lived and shared, not hidden in notebooks.
The numbers back it up too:
A Life Path 1 — here to initiate rather than replicate.
A 21/3 signature that needs expression, synthesis and storytelling to stay alive.
These aren’t specialist numbers, they’re sense-maker numbers.
Chinese Astrology adds another important layer:
Born in the year of the Goat, sensitive, ethical, creative and values-led.
The Goat doesn’t force change.It notices what’s out of alignment and reshapes it gently, intelligently, with care.
And tarot has always been the soul language underneath it all.
My core card is The Sun: illumination, clarity, helping others see themselves more clearly.
My personality card is the Wheel of Fortune: cycles, timing, pattern recognition, knowing when change is ready.
And my soul card is the Magician: the synthesiser, the translator, the one who brings ideas down to earth so they can actually be lived.
Put together, that’s not chaos.That’s design.
Holistic therapy taught me early on that none of this lives in the head alone.People don’t change through insight.They change when understanding lands in the body, the breath, the nervous system, the lived experience.
So no....I’m not collecting modalities.
I’m reading patterns.
Polymaths aren’t unfocused.We’re built to ask: “How does all of this belong together?”
In older cultures, this wasn’t called “having too many interests”.
It was called being a priestess, a healer, an adviser, a keeper of wisdom.
Someone who could read the cycles, feel the room, work with body and psyche, helping others cross thresholds.
And right now; with old systems wobbling and meaning being renegotiated, this kind of synthesis isn’t indulgent.
It’s leadership.
So if your mind ranges wide…
If you’ve never been able to settle into just one identity…
If you’ve spent years trying to tidy yourself up so you make more sense…
Maybe you’re not scattered.
Maybe you’re assembled differently.
Built to bring light, read the wheel and work a little magic along the way.
And very much right on time.

Blimey .....Five Planets in Aquarius !!
I'm not saying this lightly, but the cosmos is giving us a serious tap on the shoulder right now.
With Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Pluto all in Aquarius, history isn’t just nudging... it’s giving us a right old shove.Especially for me personally, with an Aquarius Sun.
This energy is all about stepping into your truth, your voice and your sovereignty. Not in a loud, “look at me” sort of way, more like a quiet power that shifts everything around you.
- Mercury and Venus are helping ideas and values find their people.
- Mars is giving courage to break free from the boxes we’ve been stuck in.
- Pluto… well, Pluto is rewriting the rules.
As a Leo Rising, I usually show up with a
" here I am" sparkly, shiny presence lol ;) ..... Now it feels more like presence + gravity + clarity. People won't need me to perform, they'll simply feel my energy.... oooer missus!
Hopefully they'll see the work I’ve been doing in silence for decades.
There’s a beautiful release in this too. Saturn and Neptune in Pisces are closing chapters of old patterns of carrying what’s not mine to carry.
This is what living as your truest self feels like.
If you’re feeling it too, that restless energy, that something is shifting inside.... Welcome to the shift!
We’re in the middle of a threshold. Step into it. Speak. Create. Lead. Shine… quietly, powerfully and unapologetically.
Are you feeling this cosmic push?

Neptune in Aries: When History Rewrites Itself
(and why this cycle matters more than most)
Neptune moves slowly. Very slowly.
It takes around 165 years to complete one journey around the zodiac, meaning when Neptune changes signs, it marks epochal shifts, not trends.
When Neptune enters Aries, history doesn’t whisper....it ignites.
Aries is identity, initiation, courage, war, independence, selfhood.
Neptune dissolves illusions, myths, gods, beliefs and collective dreams.
Together, they don’t create comfort.
They create awakening through action.
Let’s go back. Way back.
Neptune in Aries Through History
(as far back as we can reliably trace)
1366–1380
The Peasants’ Revolt (England, 1381)
The divine right of kings began to fracture. Ordinary people rose up against feudal systems, taxation, and spiritual control.
Identity shifted from “subject” to “individual”
Authority was questioned publicly
Spiritual obedience began to crack
This was the beginning of the end for medieval unquestioned hierarchy.
1532–1546
The Protestant Reformation intensifies
Martin Luther’s ideas didn’t just challenge the Church, they redefined spiritual authority.
Individuals claimed direct access to God
Spiritual intermediaries were rejected
Religion became personal, not imposed
Neptune in Aries doesn’t ask what do you believe?
It asks who are you without the old gods?
1697–1712
Age of Enlightenment sparks & early revolutions
Rise of rationalism
Science begins replacing myth
Monarchies start losing moral authority
This was the awakening of the sovereign mind; the idea that identity, reason and truth live inside the individual.
1861–1875 (the most cited cycle)
This one is unmistakable.
American Civil War; identity, freedom, abolition
Unification of Italy & Germany
End of serfdom in Russia
Rise of spiritualism & occult movements
Women’s rights movements accelerate
Industrial revolution reshapes human purpose
Old myths collapsed.
New identities were forged, often through fire.
This wasn’t gentle evolution.
It was necessary rupture.
The Pattern Is Clear
Every time Neptune enters Aries:
Old belief systems lose credibility
People fight for identity and autonomy
Spirituality becomes personal, embodied, lived
Passive faith collapses
Action replaces waiting
This is not about blind rebellion.
It’s about truth demanding expression.
January 26th Onwards: Neptune Enters Aries Again
(2026–2039)
This is not “everything changes overnight”.
This is the beginning of a 13-year initiation.
What’s dissolving:
Victim consciousness
Spiritual bypassing
Waiting for permission
Leaders without integrity
Beliefs that require your silence
What’s emerging:
Embodied spirituality
Courageous truth-telling
Identity rooted in lived experience
Action aligned with soul, not fear
Leaders who walk their values
Neptune in Aries says:
Stop dreaming about who you could be.
Become them.
This Is the End of Passive Awakening
No more:
“One day…”
“When I’m ready…”
“When things settle…”
This cycle doesn’t reward spectators.
It initiates warriors of consciousness; not violent, but courageous, self-led and awake.
If you’ve felt:
A pressure to begin again
A restlessness that won’t settle
A refusal to play small
A calling to embody your truth
You’re not late.
You’re right on time.
Final Truth...
Neptune in Aries doesn’t save us.
It hands us the match
and asks:
What are you willing to burn, so you can finally live?
This is the long game.
And it’s sacred.

Polymath (noun): A person whose knowledge and expertise span a wide range of subjects, particularly in the arts and sciences, with an ability to synthesise and integrate ideas across disciplines.
Polymathic brain: A cognitive style that thinks in patterns, symbols, and connections rather than linear silos.
I’ve been reading about polymaths recently and it started to dawn on me with a deep, undeniable knowing.... this is me!
A polymath isn’t someone who dabbles. And a polymathic brain doesn’t collect interests.
It integrates them.
It sees patterns where others see fragments.
It understands leadership through astrology, psychology through myth, trauma through symbolism, healing through movement and wisdom through story.
For 26 years I’ve worked as a therapist. Alongside that, I’ve been a leadership expert, an author, a tarot lover, an amatuer astrologer, a student of numerology and a devotee of symbolism and archetype.
I write. I teach. I guide. I dance; belly dance and sword dance... embodying story, power, precision and devotion.
For a long time, this didn’t feel like a title.
It felt like a contradiction.
“Too much.”
“Hard to explain.”
“Pick one lane.”
But here’s what finally dropped into place for me:
A polymathic brain is not scattered.
It is multi-dimensional.
It's wired to cross-pollinate disciplines, to translate wisdom between worlds, to hold science and mysticism in the same hand without apology. It learns laterally, intuitively, symbolically.... often faster than linear systems can keep up with.
Polymaths are the bridge-walkers.
The ones who can sit in a boardroom and read the unspoken dynamics, then go home and pull tarot to articulate what leadership language cannot yet name.
The ones who feel truth in the body before it ever becomes theory.
The ones who know that healing, power, creativity and meaning are not separate conversations.
And sword dance?
That makes perfect sense to a polymath brain.
The balance of danger and devotion.
The precision.
The embodied sovereignty.
The myth made real.
A polymath doesn’t dilute their power by doing many things.
They amplify it by letting all of who they are speak.
So yes.... a penny dropped.
Not because I’ve suddenly become something new,
but because I finally have language for what I have always been.
And perhaps you do too.
If you’ve ever felt “too much,” too layered, too curious, too symbolic, too intuitive and too quick minded....this might not be a flaw.

A note from Lisa :
Get a Life! came to manifestation as a result of an intent I put out sometime ago. In order to bring it to fruition I have been on a long journey to Get a Life! Myself. You see, in order to bring Get a Life! to life... I had to wake up! That’s right, wake up! Maybe you’ve done it yourself, you’re drifting along through life, day after day, and showing up to life just as you did yesterday. Then it happens.... sometimes it’s a gentle nudge, a fleeting thought... “There must be more to life than this” or “Is this it? Is this all there is?” or for others it hits like a sledgehammer or demolition ball... shaking you to your very core.
For me it was I guess a few nudges to begin with, but I simply didn’t listen, I kept on doing what I did in the same way I’d always done, thinking that’s just what you do. But when the universe calls to your spirit and you don’t listen, then it calls again and if you still don’t listen; as was the case in my journey, then its shouts at the top of it’s voice for you to wake up, my shout came in the form of severe post natal depression after the birth of my beautiful daughter Sarah, over 20 years ago, followed by M.E. (myalgic encephalomyelitis) Crazy but true...... It took a debilitating illness to make me wake up to my spirit’s call!
Many years down the line, I have been on a long and life transforming journey of which I’m truly grateful, I might add. My journey has taken me through the wonders of complementary therapy, letting go of my old corporate career, developing my spirituality, a divorce, ups and downs and rounds and rounds, until I was ready to Get a Life! and in turn help others.
Today, I’m wide awake, in perfect health, blissfully happy with myself, my life, the love of my life Jon, my wonderful daughter Sarah ( who has taught me so much and continues to do so), my loving family (now much extended to include Jon’s lovely girls Olivia and Rachel) and my wonderful friends.....I have become a very different human being to the old Lisa. I have evolved. Before I was all about “doing” now I’m about “Being” The gift I was given, my wake-up call, allowed me to follow my true calling. In order that I can now live on purpose. I Got a Life!
I hope that this page may bring you great pleasure and allow you to wake-up gently, bringing your true spirit to light.
Namaste Lisa x
