Deeply entrenched in the demands of SW London motherhood and work – Lise felt overweight and undervalued until she decided to no longer let it stop her.  She took up triathlons, adventures and even welcomed a family of refugees into her home. She has since bought a refuge house for women and children and is a passionate advocate for women embracing their wealth. She bares her soul and her body on Instagram and asks: “why let shame stop you?”  In this conversation we explore her recognition that her extra weight was a natural adaptive response and protective layer to a car accident when she was young. The pressure to lose it before she was ready was what embedded a lifetime of shame which she is now releasing through her Instagram activities.  Bio:Lise Thorne is a passionate advocate for body acceptance and self-love. After a car crash at seven led to weight gain and self-doubt, she struggled with body image through her teens and on. Now, she inspires other women to free themselves from limiting beliefs through projects like photographing women’s nude bodies annually to celebrate growth and change. Lise also founded The Welcome Home Project, providing housing for homeless refugee mothers and her latest project is launching The Money Conversation to empower women in investing and financial independence. A firm believer in movement for mental and physical well-being, Lise is on a mission to help women follow their dreams and become unstoppable rockstars. Links: https://www.instagram.com/walking_this_way/https://www.instagram.com/welcome_home_london/https://www.instagram.com/the.moneyconversation/www.dynamicfutures.co.ukPlease like and subscribe.
