It is one thing to hear of the power of belief, quite another to witness a person bare their soul, believe, and discover how miracles unfurl. Lisa Balthasar bravely shows us how true-believing becomes a spiritual journey of self-discovery, belonging, authenticity, and ultimately finding our soulmate. Lisa’s miraculous story takes us from grief and feeling alone in the world to healing and intimately becoming a part of someone. Believe! won’t ask or teach you to change how you are; it will show you how to live who you are and ultimately discover your soulmate. In short, Believe! empowers the reader through a sacred journey within, where genuine healing power and miracles are born
Believe! is a story described by New York industry professionals at The Next Bestseller as “Eat, Pray, Love goes to Burning Man,” with real-life miracles and profound serendipity woven throughout.
Her inspiring keynote message helped spark the passion of our participants to believe in accomplishing their dreams and life goals...
The high-energy presentation was well crafted, thought provoking and exceeded our expectations.

presenter—no matter the audience.

More about Lisa..
Lisa’s passion for writing began over a decade ago when she began writing after losing her high-school sweetheart, husband, and soul mate of 27 years to brain cancer. A survivor at heart, she processed her pain by putting pen to paper.
Lisa has inspired people from all over the world to "Believe!" in love and the power of positive affirmations while manifesting the life of their dreams. Her miraculous story has inspired students to tap into the power that lies within. The methodologies she teaches tie together with a lifetime of lived wisdom and what she has learned from working with people through individual coaching, group coaching, and multiple retreats. Her work teaches the proven power of positive affirmations and manifesting through the heart, the body’s greatest neurotransmitter.
Through her coaching, Lisa has helped people find love and deeper intimacy in their lives, and throughout her coaching it has become clear that so many of us feel like the human experience is wrought with hardship and loss. “There is so much in life we cannot control – but we CAN control the way we channel our suffering into our growth.” Lisa’s inspirational memoir, Believe! supports this idea through its powerful story.
Lisa has a second book conceived, based on the highly successful, life-changing Heart of Manifestation retreats, workshops, and inspirational teachings. Her inspirational story was developed into a 2021 TEDx talk. Lisa has been featured on various podcasts, YoniVerse Monologues and at conferences as an expert in love, intimacy, and manifesting life transformation.
