In this conversation, Lisette and I travel through the many reinventions that shaped her life, from a spiritually attuned child who learned early to hide parts of herself, to a woman who rebuilt, rewrote and reclaimed her identity again and again.

Lisette Schuitemaker is the author of seven books, a pioneering impact investor, and a respected board director and chair. She has worked across communications, entrepreneurship and personal development, co hosted The Year of Being 70 and is now writing The Inner Life of Money.

Her honesty about depression, intuition and the power of choosing a different path offers a refreshingly human take on change.

From entrepreneurship to healing work to impact investing, Lisette's story shows that transformation is rarely tidy, but it can be deeply liberating, and sometimes it brings you back to the truest version of yourself.
