040 Building Your Confidence With Lisa Marie Pepe

Lisa Marie Pepe is a confidence coach and online visibility expert for heart centered entrepreneurs. She empowers her clients to rock solid confidence and help them build their online authority resulting in increased income.

Lisa’s journey into becoming an entrepreneur began in 2011 after a car accident. At the time she was a massage therapist and unfortunately was not able to return to the profession due to her injuries. Since she was not able to continue doing what she loved, she ended up taking several low end jobs to fill the void left by the therapy job she loved.

The turning point for her happened one day while working at a local gym when a woman looked at her and asked her a simple question “What are you doing?”. The woman asked the question 3 times before clarifying with “What are you doing with your life…not right now?” It was at that moment when Lisa began taking ownership of her life, as she knew she wasn’t serving the world in the best way she could.

Shortly thereafter she took a job working in a school district. In 2014, because of a shoulder surgery, she had to look towards generating an income online as she would not have been able to continue her duties in the district.

She started her entrepreneurial career as a wellness coach, but soon pivoted towards helping people with their confidence. As she grew her business, people began asking her how she was creating the exposure she was receiving online. Thusly, she added online visibility as part of her packaging to service her clients better.

When it comes to overcoming fears, Lisa shares several ways to overcome them:

Acknowledge what you are truly afraid of.
Make a list of your fears, but remember no fear is truly irrational.
Once you identify your fears, the healing process can begin

One of the ways that Lisa is currently growing her brand online is leveraging live streaming. It allows for the real time interaction that people crave when using online platforms.
