Lisa Kohn is the author of To The Moon and Back which is a term often associated with love. But for Lisa, it had a much deeper meaning. Lisa grew up in the East Village of New York City in the 1970s and in the Unification Church (the Moonies).
Lisa was raised in two conflicting bipolar worlds. Her mother's world was the fanatical, puritanical cult of the Moonies. Her father's world was based on sex and drugs in the East Village of New York City.
In her interview, she shares how she escaped the lifestyle that almost destroyed her. She was anorexic, addicted to cocaine and engaged to an alcoholic. Today she has a successful leadership consulting and coaching practice and blessed with a happy marriage of over twenty years and two amazing children.
Listen as she shares her amazing transformation, what she learned, and how she offers hope to anyone struggling with self-destruction and esteem issues.
Most of us know someone who has been swept into a world of addiction or poor choices which can be destructive. You don't want to miss hearing Lisa's story of how she escaped what she calls "brain pickling" instead of brainwashing:
