I'm Dr. Lisa Petty
For nearly two decades, I built a successful career as a nutrition coach and educator, helping women optimize their health. I was good at what I did. But something kept pulling at me—a deeper question about why so many capable, accomplished women struggled to prioritize their own wellbeing.
That question led me to pursue a PhD in Applied Health Sciences, where my research uncovered a uncomfortable truth: social conditioning systematically trains women to override their own wisdom, disconnect from their bodies, and define success through external validation rather than internal alignment.
And then… the day after earning my doctorate, I was laid off from my six-figure position.
That devastating moment became my greatest gift. Stripped of the identity I’d built, the salary that validated my worth, and the career path I thought defined success, I had no choice but to confront the wounds I’d been teaching around but hadn’t fully healed myself—the patterns of proving, performing, and pushing that had driven my own life.
From Crisis to Clarity
In that raw, uncertain space, I discovered Q’ero Incan shamanic practice. I didn’t approach it as an add-on or a hobby—I studied deeply, learning to work with energy, rituals, and the spiritual dimensions of healing that Western frameworks often ignore.
This fusion of academic rigour and ancient wisdom revealed something powerful: lasting transformation requires that we address both the social programming that shapes us AND the energetic imprints that keep us trapped in survival patterns.
Over the past several years, I’ve developed The Wisdom Protocol™—a comprehensive approach that combines my doctoral research on women’s wellbeing with practical energy work and shamanic tools to create deep, permanent shifts in how women relate to themselves, their purpose, and their power.
What I Do (and Why It Works)
I help women activate their Wisdom Code™—the inner knowing they’ve been trained to override—so they can reconnect to their soul’s purpose and build a life or business that reflects the truth of who they’ve become.
The Wisdom Protocol™ addresses transformation at three essential levels:
Mental/Psychological: Using insights from my PhD research, we identify and dismantle the social conditioning that keeps you small, burned out, or chasing someone else’s definition of success.
Energetic/Spiritual: Through shamanic practice and energy work, we clear the patterns running beneath your conscious awareness—the wounds, stories, and survival strategies that no longer serve who you’re becoming.
Strategic/Practical: We translate your inner shifts into external reality through aligned action, so transformation doesn’t stay theoretical—it becomes lived experience.
This isn’t coaching. It’s sacred recalibration. It’s healing as strategy. It’s the return to you.
What I Believe
- You don’t need to do more. You need to come home to yourself.
- Your energy is your strategy. Your presence is your power.
- Success built from survival will always feel hollow.
- The version of you that got you here isn’t the one who can take you where you’re going.
- Transformation happens when we stop managing symptoms and start healing at the source.
A Little More Personal
I’m a grandmother, a ritual-maker, a wild-hearted truth-teller. My role as a grandmother anchors everything I teach—because I’m not just doing this work for you, I’m doing it for those who come after us.
I care about legacy—not the loud, flashy kind, but the kind that heals the timeline. The kind where a woman’s return to herself creates ripples that touch her children, her community, and generations yet to come.
This work is sacred. And it’s strategic. Because a woman aligned with her inner wisdom becomes unstoppable in the most grounded, graceful way.
