Heading back to Rome for our few final days. My connection to Italy and to my memories with Jamie run deep. We spent 7 years here making friends and creating a life. I already miss the light, the warmth, cappuccino at the bar in the morning, the flexibility of rules and the way Italians of all ages are out at midnight! Tengo sia Jamie che Italia nel mio cuore. Xx

Jamie and I gave both Coco and Silver Italian middle names. Coco we named after Siena! Jamie and I spent a quiet day in Siena meandering about the streets and had the most amazing panini which they made on the spot. Returning yesterday was emotional. We spent some moments together overlooking Piazza del Campo and lit a candle in Basilica of San Francesco. We miss you my love. Xx p.s Coco Siena Scott was very happy to be named after this beautiful citta!!

22 years ago in Rome. We spent 7 years living and studying in Italy. Just not long enough with this beautiful man. xx

Jamie,

6 months have passed since we said goodbye to you.
It feels like an eternity and it feels like yesterday.

‘My darling,
We slowed down, we allowed, we finally decided to trust and we let the wave hit us.
I don’t understand why we are still here standing and you are not.
I trust and we trust that it is somehow right for you.
Although we could never contemplate letting you go, we must give you to the ocean,
knowing it’s love for you must be as immense and endless as is ours for you.
May the universe hold you my love, as we always will.’ 01/01/24

And now the children and I are going forth on an adventure.
We’re off it Italy tomorrow!

You told us what we should do, my darling. You told us that you wanted us to recover and
to live our lives. You told us that love is all there is. You told us to keep our hearts open and that you wanted us to experience joy.

We’re taking you with us in our hearts.

Cogliamo l’attimo. Andiamo mio amore!!

xx

It is with broken hearts that we announce the passing of Jamie. 31/12/1970 - 01/01/2024

Jamie made it through his 53rd birthday and into the first light of 2024. He passed away peacefully at approximately 7.45am on New Year’s Day surrounded by his loving wife and closest family, enveloped by the love of friends and family from far and wide.

Jamie was and is a source of strength and inspiration to us all. Talented, kind, loyal and resilient. Since his cancer diagnosis 5 years ago, his calm determination to defy all the odds has been astounding. His love and appreciation for life despite mounting challenges has been the stuff of legend.

Lisa, Coco, Silver, as well as Jamie’s parents Bruce & Ingrid, brother Dougal and immediate family are deeply saddened yet so grateful for his wisdom and grace as he taught us all how to truly open our hearts.

We love you Jamie Scott. Always and Forever.

DM me ‘Creative’ to learn about my limited case study opportunity. 🔥

"My heart has been breaking this week. Standing beside my husband, my creative, talented, gentle husband, Jamie, as he receives more harsh news about his fight against cancer. It is all-encompassing, with no time or space left to think about dreams or aspirations, and only the fight to survive and be with those we love.

In moments like these, we're reminded of life's fragility, the urgency to embrace our passions, and the courage to leap into the unknown.

Take bold leaps, not just for yourself, but for all of those who love you. Embrace the courage to chase your dreams.

This is your time. This is your chance. Please seize it with both hands.

Just as we are striding forward with courage and utter determination, we ask that you do the same.

With love and unwavering support,

Lisa and Jamie xx

Your potential is yours to fulfill. Yes, of course, we have responsibilities to care for others in our lives but just as their happiness is their responsibility, so is yours for you. You can't keep someone else completely happy and be true to yourself simultaneously. Quite honestly, it’s completely exhausting too.

It's important to remember that when you're feeling fulfilled and purposeful, you become a happier and better person to be around. You will have more energy to give, and you'll inspire those around you.

If you have someone in your life who you feel is holding you back from your creative purpose, it might be time to take some distance. This journey is all about your mission, your calling, and your path.

➡️ If you find that you've been putting someone else's happiness before your own, I invite you to share it in the comments or pop it in a DM. 💙 Recognizing what or who might be holding you back is the first step to reclaiming your path. Let's acknowledge it together, so you can boldly move forward toward your creative future!

I get it, the doubts, the fears, the million reasons you've convinced yourself that taking that step is impossible. Truth is, the creative path isn't the easiest path, but if that call won't stop echoing, it's YOUR path. It's time to gather courage and embrace the challenge. I’m here to make your journey extraordinary!

➡️Exciting news – I've opened up a limited case study program at an unbelievable price, just for you. Let's ignite your journey! Drop me a DM with ‘Creative’ and I’ll fill you in. "

Confession time: my self-contented smile might be slightly annoying, but it's genuine. 🤣
I've learned that wholehearted living begins when you trust your creative calling and step onto your path. Sure, life throws its curveballs – obligations, jobs, distractions – but here's the thing: if something's not aligning with you, it's worth the effort to notice and start to make a change or two.
And yes I know it’s not going to all be smooth sailing on your creative path either because you will undoubtedly hit choppy waters …
However ➡️ when you're navigating toward what truly invigorates you, that journey is worth every ripple. 🌊

Let's be real, it's about making life richer, brighter, and bolder.
So let’s do it! 🤘 Hit that Follow button and let me support you on your creative journey. 🫶

Practicing your Future!
Let's ponder the person you're shaping with every practice. Are you honing being punctual? Nurturing an early riser? Keeping your word? Or channeling the creativity that is in you? The misconception that talented people are 'born with it' dissolves away when practice steps in and determination and commitment are present. Masterpieces aren't reserved for a select few—you too can walk that path.

So dive in and give life to your aspirations because it’s practice that shapes your potential. There's no shortcut, but the journey is so worth it and you’ll be beyond proud of the person you’ll become.
Comment 👍 If you’re ready to practice! Xx 🎭📚

Embrace the now!
How often do you find yourself waiting for the stars to align, for the perfect moment to arrive? Life doesn't unfold in that scripted way. The truth is, the perfect moment is the one you decide to seize. It's not about circumstances aligning magically; it's about having the courage to step forward and taking the initiative. Your time is now, and the power to make it count lies within you. Don't wait for tomorrow when today is already offering you the chance to begin. Let's do this my friends! Lisa xx.

It's understandable to feel afraid sometimes to share your true self and voice, but have you considered that maybe your voice is the voice that someone needs to hear today? Maybe your truth is what is needed to ignite courage in someone else.

I firmly believe that self-expression is not just a luxury; it is an essential part of personal growth and fulfillment. Embracing your creativity allows you to express essential parts of your true self, enriching your life and the lives of those around you.
In a world that may sometimes overlook the significance of your art, I encourage you to recognize its true power. Through your creative endeavors, you have the ability to inspire, connect, and leave a lasting impact on the world.

Here’s the Framework that I use in my online course and my 1:1 coaching with 4 key milestones incorporating psychology, specialised voice work and self development. My mission is to empower creatives to ignite their self-worth, find their voice and unleash their limitless, unique potential. DM me ‘creative’ for more info on how I can help you. Xx.

DM me ‘creative’ if you’d like to learn more about how I can help or just to say hi!! 😁

Let's talk about reclaiming your vibrant self and making the most out of today! We all know that life can sometimes leave us feeling a little less vibrant than we'd like to be. With so many responsibilities and the habit of putting others before ourselves, it's no wonder we don't always feel 'on fire.’
But fear not! I'm here on a mission to help you tap into your inner sparkle and make the most of every day.
In this blog post, I'll share some practical tips to help you shift the focus back onto yourself, reignite your groove, and embrace the amazing woman you are. It's time to rediscover your vibrant spirit.
So, let's dive in and get your groove on! https://voicefulness.co/7-ways-to-get-your-groove-back/

This is something I know to be true based on my own experience. I also know that genuine self-trust is not an easy thing to come by. Sometimes you might feel like it’s there and other times it is decidedly absent... but you come to a point in your life when you have to decide to nurture a deep trust in your own value and your unique voice.

When you do this, I assure you, many things will seem easier, opportunities will flow your way, challenges will be more manageable and you’ll discover more spontaneity and creativity in your approach to life.

Here are some tips to help:
1. Stop thinking that someone else knows better than you do, especially when it comes to your life.
2. Be honest with yourself about how you feel and what you want.
3. Ask yourself which of your talents, qualities or skills you could make a conscious effort to develop further.
4. Challenge yourself to try something new.
5. Tell yourself it’s OK to make mistakes. Even Einstein said 'Mistakes are, after all, the foundations of truth!'
Decide to believe in your truth eh? I believe in you, and your voice!

Not feeling grateful? Here’s some tips to help! https://voicefulness.co/is-it-ok-to-not-feel-grateful/ 🫶🏻
"As women in our 40’s and 50’s, we often feel like we have to constantly push ourselves to be on top of everything. It can feel like there’s a constant pressure to always be positive, organised and grateful for our lives. But it’s important to remember that it’s okay to not always feel happy and content with where we are in life. It’s okay to take time for ourselves and retreat into ourselves in order to grow into the next phase of our lives.

If you’re feeling like you’re going through the motions and not experiencing much joy or fulfilment, it’s important to take a step back and allow yourself the time and space to not feel ok. This means slowing down or stopping something that isn’t serving you …https://voicefulness.co/is-it-ok-to-not-feel-grateful/.

I love this quote. I think of it as something to aim for, to aspire to. Words have the power to build others up or pull them down, just as they have the same power over us in our own minds. It’s not easy to use the power of your word in the direction of love and truth and yet it’s good to try to remember that we always have a choice. It’s good to remember that this quote is something to strive towards! xx

Link in Bio! 💙 Do you feel exhausted from trying to keep up with everything in life? Perhaps you often compare yourself to others who seem to have it all together? You keep trying to get organised and on top of things yet you feel like you keep falling short?

Sometimes it seems like there must be some secret formula to living life successfully and that someone out there knows the best way to do it. It certainly seems like some people have it all figured out! From religious leaders to self-help gurus to our own opinionated friends, we look for guidance in those who seem to be smooth sailing. But the truth is, there is no right way to do life.

This is a conversation I’ve been having ...

Your voice has the power to uplift, inspire, and create positive change. Use it wisely and with intention to bring your dreams to life and help others achieve theirs too.

Link in Bio! “As a singer and vocal coach, I spent many years helping singers and actors find their vocal freedom. It felt like my mission and passion and I loved helping artists learn how to free their voices and develop clear and resonant sounds. But something was missing.
I realized that while someone could have a beautiful singing voice, they could still be lost and feel unable to find their true direction and purpose.

That’s when I knew I had to do more...

Finding your true voice isn’t just about singing, it’s about finding the courage to be your whole self.”

So many steps up setting up my new business but getting there! Each step is a learning curve. It’s a whole new way to teach. It’s taken me awhile, after our personal setback, to find the courage to share my voice again … but ready now and determined to help others do the same! 💙
