I was at rock bottom. I was broke, and I was broken… And I was tired of having potential. I wanted to have my ‘now.’
How do you survive when you’re living in one of the most poverty-stricken neighborhoods in South Central Los Angeles? This was once Lisa Nichols’ reality. She was searching for ways she could help herself and change her family’s circumstances.
Lisa was a single mother of a baby whose father was in prison. Her only support was social assistance and things were looking grim. But now she is a successful author and one of the most admired motivational speakers.
Today, Lisa speaks to thousands of people around the world, and she always asks: Are you willing to reinvent who you are? To let all the fear fall away and become who you were always meant to be?
The life story of Lisa is inspiring. She radically turned her life around when she was “broke and broken.”
