Welcome! I’m Lisa Bennett, an author, speaker, and award-winning journalist whose work explores leading with courage in an uncertain world.

Whether you’re a leader, a changemaker, an educator, or anyone else who wants to feel better equipped to rise to the challenges of these extraordinary times, I write (and develop programs) with you in mind.

I’ve studied how ordinary people do extraordinary things for decades — ever since, as a young reporter, I witnessed a woman protect her home from a wildfire armed with only a kitchen broom and garden hose.

I’ve met and interviewed hundreds of people from all over America and beyond who have taught me so much I have found helpful — ever more so the more uncertain our world has become. I aim to provide the most helpful insights and inspiration here and would love to hear from you.

Please visit my website to learn more. And drop me a line anytime. I’d love to hear from you. Finally, if you like what you see, I’d be grateful if you would recommend it to others.

Warmly,
Lisa Bennett
