✨ I Think I Need a Minute

Come, come sit with me, grab yourself a drink and pull up a chair... Okay, real talk here... I am so out of sync right now, it isn't even funny. 😂 Y'all, my year has been moving soooo fast, putting one leg out to slow it down has NOT been working. 😂 Let me start with work. I enjoy my job, but let me tell you, it has gotten even more interesting when you throw in travel... The stories I have about the airport... making sure you have everything you need to travel with, going through security, then you get the rental car and you just never know what you are going to get. 😂 And I haven't even started doing my job yet. Okay, you got your first week of travel done and you're on your way back home... HOME. Mmmm... but when you get there, you want to meet up with friends and family because you've been gone. You need to do laundry, and then you need to get ready for your week... This. THIS has been me for the last five months. So I am sitting here today telling...

The Season I’m In

Come, come sit with me. Grab your drink and pull up a chair.

Seasons.

That word can mean so many things.

The changing of the weather — and please, GOD, let the season of heat start soon because we are tired of the cold. (Yes, I said it.)

But seasons can also mean the one you’re living in right now.

The emotional season.
The growth season.
The stretching season.
The rebuilding season.

I know you’re probably thinking, “What is this girl talking about?”

I’m talking about the season I’m in.

It’s the season of freeing.

The season of freeing for me is doing things I would have never imagined myself doing in a million years.

Creating.

Me.

Creating things.

I’ve always been a numbers girl.

Spreadsheets.
Budgets.
Tracking.
Analytics.

I love my numbers.
They make sense.
They behave.
They add up.

I never saw myself as creative.

That wasn’t the box I put myself in.

But here I am.

Writing.
Designing.
Recording.
Building something out of words and color and thought.

And let me be clear.

At first?

It was scary.

Uncomfortable.

Unfamiliar.

There were moments I wanted to retreat back to what felt safe.

But growth rarely feels comfortable.

In order to grow, sometimes we have to sit in the stretch.
In the uncertainty.
In the “who am I becoming?” space.

My season of freeing is interesting in the way that I’ve discovered another side of myself — a side I now embrace.

Who knew that being open could unlock this?

This kind of expansion.
This kind of courage.
This kind of creativity.

So let me ask you something.

What season are you in right now?

Are you embracing it…
or fighting it?

Because the season you’re resisting might be the one that’s trying to set you free.

✨ Whisper: The season that feels unfamiliar may be the one that frees you.

    Change can feel overwhelming, but it’s also where growth lives. One step at a time is still progress—just keep going.

🌹 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,...
