There’s a moment every visionary woman remembers.
It’s not always loud. It doesn’t come with confetti.
But it etches itself into your memory. The moment you realize:
“They don’t see me. And they’re not going to.”
Lisa Bragg, author of Bragging Rights, knows that moment intimately.
She was working in traditional media—doing everything right.
Crushing stories, spotting trends, elevating voices. Until one day, she saw the future—clear as day.
It came in the form of a teenager on YouTube.
Justin Bieber. Before the fame. Before the record deal. Before anyone knew who he was.
Lisa? She saw it. She knew.
And when she pitched his story to her newsroom—corporate, crusty, clinging to old rules—they shut her down. Made her feel small. Silly. “YouTube? That’s not real media.”
So she left.
Let that sink in.
She left a career, a title, a track record—because they didn’t see what she saw.
That’s not just a story.
That’s a Luxe Leap.
This Is for the Women Who’ve Outgrown the Rooms They Were Told to Be Grateful For
If you’ve ever sat in a boardroom or a Zoom room and thought, “I’ve outgrown this,” you’re not alone.
Lisa’s story is your story. It’s my story. It’s the story of every woman consultant who’s ever been underestimated in a space she helped build.
And let’s be honest: we stay too long sometimes.
Because we’re loyal.
Because we were raised to be grateful.
Because we’re hoping someone will eventually recognize our magic.
But sometimes the most strategic move isn’t waiting.
It’s walking away from outdated rooms and building the next one—with your name on the door.
Seeing the Future Isn’t the Hard Part—Trusting Yourself Is
What I love about Lisa’s Luxe Leap is that it wasn’t about ego.
It was about alignment. She saw where the world was going. She didn’t need a map. She was the map.
But let’s be real—leaping into the unknown? It’s scary.
Especially when you’ve been taught to prove, to please, to be polite.
Lisa didn’t just pivot to video. She pivoted to ownership.
Ownership of her gifts.
Ownership of her worth.
Ownership of her voice.
And now she teaches leaders how to do the same—not just on screen, but in how they show up everywhere.
You’re Not Just Building a Brand—You’re Building a Movement
Lisa’s story isn’t just about media. It’s about mindset.
She could’ve kept working behind the scenes forever. Helping others shine. Making magic for everyone else.
Sound familiar?
As women consultants, we are the behind-the-scenes geniuses. The brand whisperers. The strategic powerhouses. The go-to experts.
But brilliance without visibility? That’s not leadership. That’s burnout.
Your brand—your extraordinary brand—is the vehicle that:
- Shatters the glass ceilings you were told to tiptoe under
- Transforms “potential” into profit and power
- Puts your name in the rooms you used to only whisper about
This isn’t just business.
This is about uncommon wealth—the kind that includes freedom, influence, and legacy.
Lisa didn’t wait to be invited. She built her own stage.
So, let me ask you: Are you still waiting? Or are you ready to leap?
