Author & Speaker
Alisa knows humor as one of the highest expressions of God, widely underestimated for its transformative power. Humor breaks social taboos and delivers Truth – because it disarms our defenses with laughter. At ourselves. At the insanity of a materialistic life. At the meaninglessness of arbitrary living. And the more outrageous it gets, the harder we laugh. And crazy nonsense is called into the light. And said out loud. And we are freed up just a little more. The expressions of Spirit take infinite form.
During her own healing journey, Alisa found writing to be an essential element of her process.Years later when she began to share what she had written with others, they found it to be powerful and healing, offering them hope, and they encouraged her to share her work in a larger way. Alisa carefully chose and compiled key pieces from her body of writing through the years into her first book A Breath of Fresh Air (with shrapnel).
Although Alisa enjoys writing for writing itself, she is most profound when she is sharing her work with audiences where her writing comes alive through the powerful experience of the spoken word format.
In addition to book performances, Alisa offers a variety of speaking topics and workshops, accessible to a wide variety of audiences, groups, and organizations. She can skillfully restructure and format topics to meet unique audience needs. And she welcomes the opportunity for extemporaneous speaking in a question and answer or panel format. Contact Alisa with inquiries about what is possible.
