Celebrating Laughter

Come, come sit with me. Grab your drink and pull up a chair. Laughter. What comes to mind when you think of it? For me, when I think of laughter, I think of release. I think of lightness. I think of the way it softens whatever is happening in the moment… and how everyone just seems a little happier. There’s something beautiful about the sound of it. It’s honest. It’s unfiltered. It’s human. Laughter makes people more open. More approachable. More real. It invites connection without trying too hard. You don’t need a reason to laugh. Sometimes the smallest things spark it — an inside joke, a memory, a teasing comment, a look across the table. And when it comes? It feels like permission. Permission to relax. Permission to enjoy. Permission to just be. And if we’re talking about laughter, then of course I have to give you a memory that makes me laugh every sin...

I Told You to Start… So I Did Too

Come, come sit with me… grab a drink.

Well my fair people, I have a story to tell you about a turtle.

You know a turtle is slow moving. It doesn’t rush. It peeks its head out when it feels safe. It carries its shell and moves at its own pace.

But here’s the thing about a turtle…

It still gets to its destination.

In the right time.

For a while, I’ve been that turtle.

The blog was me sticking my head out.
Testing the air.
Finding my voice.

But stepping fully out of the shell?

That took a little more courage.

Back on November 12, I wrote a blog telling you to start whatever was on your heart.

And I can’t very well tell you to step out of your comfort zone…

While I do nothing.

Sooo…

The podcast was started.

And let me tell you —

It is WAY, WAY out of my comfort zone.

But damn…

It was fun.

I’ve quietly recorded four episodes.

Four.

No big announcement.
No fireworks.
Just me, a mic, and courage.

The turtle is moving.

Yecks and all.

But she’s not going back in.

Come listen.

And hit follow — so you don’t miss what’s next.

There will be more… I just have to find my groove.

🌹 Why Whispers with Lisa Exists

 We all have a book that we hide. The one we slip into our bag but never read in public. The one we devour late at night under the covers, praying no one asks what kept us up until 2 a.m. The one we love, but never admit out loud because someone might judge us. For some, it’s a steamy romance. For others, it’s a fantasy with a wild love triangle. For a few, it’s a sweet, cozy story that seems “too light” for serious readers. Whatever it is, it whispers to us. And whispers are powerful. Whispers Aren’t Shame — They’re Passion We’ve been taught to feel embarrassed by the books that bring us the most joy. To call them guilty pleasures — as if pleasure needs an apology. But here’s the truth: 📖 Whispers are not shame. 📖 Whispers are intimacy. 📖 Whispers are freedom — the kind that lets us escape, dream, and feel alive. A Safe Place for Hidden Loves That’s why I created Whispers with Lisa . This is not just a blog. It’s a soft corner of the internet where you don’t h...

Obsession or Love? Why We Can’t Resist Morally Grey Heroes

Image
Some heroes fade the moment you close the book. And then there are the others — the ones who move in, kick off their boots, and live rent free in your head for months (or years). Those are the heroes I can’t forget. The ones who made me laugh, made me swoon, and sometimes made me yell at the page. They’re not the shiny new names topping TikTok right now. They’re older, obsession-worthy legends — men whose loyalty makes them unforgettable. This is my list of 8 heroes who prove that obsession and loyalty often go hand-in-hand … and why they’ll never leave my heart. 💕 1. Hawke Snow — Kiss of Snow (Nalini Singh) Alpha wolf, stubborn as they come, and fiercely protective. Hawke fights love every step of the way — but when he finally gives in, it’s all-consuming obsession disguised as loyalty. 2. Kaleb Krychek — Heart of Obsidian (Nalini Singh) Dark, dangerous, and unstoppable. Kaleb is feared by everyone — except the one woman he loves with a devotion that could sh...

Rich in Love: The Heroes Who Held Me Together

Come, come sit with me… I have a story to tell you about my heroes. Not the kind you find in books or movies — mine are real. Mine have been with me since the beginning. Yes, they’re my brothers. But to me? They’re the boys . All my friends know about the boys. And I bet you’re wondering why they’re my heroes. Well… they’ve loved me, protected me, and guided me when I needed it (yes, I rebelled at the guiding — what little sister wouldn’t?) . My parents always told us that family is everything , that people will come and go in your life, but family will remain. And for us? That has always been true. The boys are like night and day — one quiet, one bold; one steady, one wild. But when we’re all together, we fit . There’s a rhythm to us, a dance we’ve been doing since childhood. And don’t even get me started on the banter — that’s a sport in our family. Teasing, laughing, pushing buttons, and loving each other through every moment. We fight, sure. We annoy each other,...
