Meet Lisa
SPECIAL was born to be a voice to embrace the uniqueness of each and every person. No judgement, no shame, just love, respect, empowerment and acceptance. Stop the stigma of going against the grain, embrace what makes you Special and be you...What makes you YOU!
Hi, I’m Lisa
A mental health advocate and blogger. Passionate about sharing thoughts and information on everything that makes our days better.
My name is Lisa, Founder and President of SPECIAL, LLC.
Knowing firsthand that talking about mental illness is frowned upon I want to stop the stigma. I am a voice for people who are different, whether it is through mental illness, sexual orientation/identity, or anything else that makes someone feel as if they cannot talk about who they are, or what they are experiencing. My passion for mental health, suicide prevention, and anti-bullying has been the catalyst behind Special. I have personally been to the depths of hell, but held on tight, for those who loved me, and begged God while sobbing uncontrollably for help. Through so much pain, tears, hard work and love, I am here. I want to make a difference. Suicide is not the answer. You are not alone.
” I always get to where I’m going by walking away from where I have been.”
