Your Girl Has Been Keeping Something From You... 😂

Come, come sit with me. Pull up a chair and grab yourself a drink. Let's talk about houses. You know, when we think about building a house, we often think about the foundation, the walls, the roof, and all the little things that make it a home. But a house isn't just about the walls that surround us. It's about what happens inside those walls. It's about the stories we share, the laughter, the conversations, the memories we make, and the people who come through our doors. And over the past year, without even realizing it at first, I've been building a house of my own. I call it Love and Life with Lisa. I didn't start out with a blueprint. I didn't know how many rooms I would build or even what the finished house would look like. I just knew I wanted to create a place where people could come, pull up a chair, and feel comfortable enough to stay awhile. And little by little, I've been adding rooms. The first room I built was the Refle...

Sexy Is a Feeling, Not a Size

Come, come sit with me. Get comfortable with your drink. I’ve got my tea.

So… I was driving home today after getting my hair done, and I have to tell you — I was feeling good. Not just happy, but confident. Comfortable. A little sexy, if I’m being honest.

And I know what you’re thinking — okay Lisa, isn’t that a good thing? Yes. Yes, it is.

But here’s my truth.

I haven’t really liked myself lately.

Not in a dramatic way. Not in a way that anyone else would probably notice. Just quietly. Subtly. The kind of feeling that creeps in when life gets busy and you forget to check in with yourself.

And as I was driving, it hit me why.

I stopped doing the things that help me feel good.

For me, feeling good isn’t about how I look — it’s about how I connect with myself.

When I move my body — even if it’s just a 20-minute walk — something shifts. The tension releases. The worries quiet down. The stress doesn’t feel so loud.

I put my music on, and I just let it go.

Eating right helps me too. (Lord knows I’ve been snacking like nobody’s business lately.)

Not in a punishment way. Just in a taking-care-of-myself way.

This is what helps me connect back to me.

And I think at some point in our lives, we all feel this way — one time or another.

Because listen… I want to get back to sexy Lisa. And honey, let me tell you — that is a feeling, not a look.

You can be fluffy and feel sexy. You can be slim and feel sexy.

It lives in our minds, not our mirrors.

Let me tell you a story.

I was out shopping with a friend one day, buying underwear — bras and undies. I was reaching for my usual staples: white, black, beige.

She looked at me and said, “What are you doing?”

I said, “Buying my staples.”

She shook her head. “No, no, no. You need color.”

I laughed and said, “I don’t need color.”

She looked at me and said, “Lisa, when you wear color under your clothes, it can change your whole mood. And the best part? Only you know why you’re in that mood.”

I laughed… but I listened.

And mmm — girl, she was right.

What you wear under your clothes can change how you move through the world — not because anyone else sees it, but because you feel it.

So here’s what I’m saying — to you and to myself.

We all lose connection with ourselves. Life happens. Responsibilities pile up. We survive instead of feel.

But I’m getting that sexy back. 😏

Not by changing my body. Not by becoming someone new.

I’m getting back into alignment — with my body, my heart, and the woman I already am.

Just one step. One choice. One moment of coming back to myself.

So… who’s with me?

✨ Whisper: Sexy is a feeling. And tonight, I’m choosing to feel it.

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,...

🌹 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...
