In a world where women’s voices are often overshadowed or diminished, Lisa Callahan stands out as a force of empowerment and inspiration. With over 20 years of experience as a transformational coach, public speaker, and co-host of the acclaimed podcast “The Things We Know,” Callahan is dedicated to helping women embrace their potential and live fulfilling lives.

As she celebrates two decades of transformative work, Callahan is also gearing up for her upcoming retreat, “Best Chapter Yet: Plot Twist Getaway,” scheduled for March 28-30, 2025, in Chandler, AZ.

Callahan’s journey began in Ohio, where she was always the person friends and family turned to for advice. After earning a BA in Communications from Miami University, she ventured into various roles in customer service, ultimately finding her calling in coaching.

“Helping people believe in themselves is my superpower,” she says. 

This belief became the cornerstone of her career when she founded Transformation for Real, LLC.

Relocating to Los Angeles in 2017, Callahan continued to evolve, earning her Master Transformational Coaching Certification from The Health Coach Institute. Her transition marked the beginning of a profound mission: to empower women to prioritize themselves, pursue their dreams, and recognize their inherent strength. 

Through her signature Transformation for Real system, Callahan guides dynamic, high-achieving women from chaos to clarity, assisting them in achieving goals ranging from weight loss to entrepreneurship.

Callahan’s commitment to women’s empowerment is reflected in her podcast, “The Things We Know,” co-hosted with Kari Morin. This show, which ranks in the top 10% of all podcasts, explores the complexities of womanhood, aging, and personal growth with humor and camaraderie. 

Callahan and Morin engage audiences with lively discussions on topics that resonate with women in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond. Popular episodes such as “The Best Is Not Behind You,” “Truths We Wish We Knew When We Were Younger,” and “Parenting: It’s Not for Wimps” highlight the duo’s mission to normalize and amplify women’s experiences.

LA Weekly recently praised Callahan and Morin, stating, “Kari Morin and Lisa Callahan are two exceptional entrepreneurs, podcasters, and business life coaches who are making an impact in their industry and whose message is resonating with women of all ages.” 

Through their podcast, they share invaluable insights from their own journeys, encouraging women to prioritize themselves and celebrate their accomplishments.

Callahan’s impact extends beyond her podcast and coaching sessions. As a passionate advocate for women’s rights, she believes that women should lead in every sphere of life. “When women know what they want and actively pursue it, everyone benefits—their families and their communities,” she explains. 

This conviction drives her work and inspires countless women to step into leadership roles.

Client testimonials underscore Callahan’s effectiveness as a coach. 

Genevieve, a long-term client, shares, “After working with her for more than a year, I am more centered and focused about every aspect of my life.” 

Such feedback reinforces Callahan’s belief that empowering women creates a ripple effect that positively impacts society.

Callahan’s upcoming retreat, “Best Chapter Yet: Plot Twist Getaway,” will be set in the serene surroundings of Chandler, AZ. The retreat will offer women a chance to step back from their daily chaos and reflect on their journeys. Participants will engage in transformative workshops designed to help them identify their goals and set actionable plans to achieve them.

She says, “I firmly believe we are at a turning point in history with the potential election of the first woman President of the United States,” Callahan asserts. “Women understand they can change the world, and it starts with their own lives.”

For Callahan, empowering women is not just a career; it’s a calling. She envisions a future where women’s voices are at the forefront of decision-making in all aspects of society. 

“When a woman heals herself, she heals the world,” she emphasizes. This philosophy encapsulates her dedication to creating a better future for women and, consequently, for everyone.

As Callahan reflects on her journey over the past 20 years, she remains committed to her mission of helping women thrive. 

“Join me in my mission to empower women and transform lives,” she invites.
