After The Shadows

 

Embracing the light

Finding Peace in the Pieces.. and Light in the Wreckage

If you’ve held yourself together while everything was falling apart…if you’ve walked through days no one saw, carried burdens no one noticed, and survived storms that changed you forever— this is the book for you. This isn’t a book of quick fixes or hollow, toxic positivity. It’s a soft place to land. A companion for those tender moments when the world grows quiet and the weight of it all feels like too much.

In After the Shadows, Lisa strips away the layers of performance, perfection, and pain to reveal something raw and real: The truth of who you are beneath what the world told you to be. Through unfiltered poetry, soul-deep reflections, mantras, and moments of both collapse and becoming, she offers gentle company for the journey—whether you’re just beginning, deep in the work, or catching your breath after surviving what almost broke you.

This is for the ones who’ve carried too much for too long. For the ones still learning how to rest, how to say no, and how to exist without apology. It’s for anyone ready to stop performing, to trust their own fire, and to walk themselves back home.

You are not the darkness they left you in. You are the spark that held on and the fire that rises from the ash.

About the Author

Lisa was born in Australia and is a single mother of two teenage children. She enlisted in the Australian Defence force at eighteen years old. Lisa served as a medic during her time in the ADF and it was this basic understanding of the medical field that inspired her to research psychology and sociology. She used this research to grasp an understanding on the darkness that had been cast her way. Lisa worked through her darkest times with great resilience and wanted to share her experiences with people that are on similar paths.

Lisa believes that it is a great privilege to walk beside others in their darkest moments, and she would love nothing more than to be the light for others when they need guidance the most. She understands how it feels to walk alone in the darkest hour, and she hopes to help those that are in need.

It has been her dream to write a book that may become a bible to those that have been abused and learning to navigate the world after abuse. Lisa has lived through much abuse, and wishes to help others through their hardships, with her lived experience.

Just Balancing: Life on a Tightrope

Writing this book has been enlightening.

It has shown me my meaning through loss and trauma to raising babies, to mental abuse, to feel so loved by those around me and my husband and families support and ‘chillions’ of love.

I am forever grateful and blessed.

Self medicating mental health is the illness that you cannot see all our souls have meaning to feel productive to feel safe and needed.
