Hi, I’m Lisa Elaine—a working mama of five incredible kids (almost all young adults now), living just outside of Washington, D.C.

 

I’m a woman who thrives simply by spending time outdoors in nature, chasing new adventures, or simply soaking up time with my kids, family, friends and furry babies. I get way too excited about DIY projects, easily lose hours in crafts and never miss a good sunrise or sunset. Watching a thunderstorm from the front porch? Yes, please! And don't get me started on crabs and watermelon-I'm obsessed. Seriously, it's a personality trait at this point. Laundry, on the other hand? Still working on that one and am hopeful one day my "fitted" sheets will be folded neatly in the hall closet vs. rolled into a giant ball. Until then... ;)

 

That same mix of chaos, joy, and imperfection is what inspired me to create Lialaine—a space for women navigating the real, raw, messy yet beautiful parts of life. What began in 2016 as a personal blog, Closing Deals in Red Heels (there’s a hilarious backstory for the name behind that one), grew into something much bigger; a place where like-minded women juggling all that we do, can feel seen, heard, supported, and empowered.

 

As I've walked through the highs and lows of not only my career, motherhood, health, wellness, and relationships, I realized something important: career success was only one piece of the puzzle. A well-lived life has so many layers. That’s when Lialaine evolved into a platform built on four core pillars:

    •    Motherhood

    •    Health & Wellness

    •    Career

    •    Loving Yourself & Building Healthy Relationships

​

What I Believe

 

You don’t need to be perfect to live abundantly. Set the goal. Do the work. Fail. Get Back Up. Adjust. Grow. Repeat. That’s how real change happens.

 

Everything here comes from my own real lived experience—the wins, the losses, and all the beautifully human moments in between. I don’t sugarcoat. There are no gimmicks. Just unfiltered honesty, practical tools, and wholehearted encouragement.

 

I’m audaciously authentic.

Compassionate to the core.

Relatable. Driven. Resourceful.

Far from Perfect and not afraid to share my wins as well as all my failures leading up to that. 

And above all, deeply committed to helping women thrive in every area of life—not just the polished parts.

 

What This Space Is (and Isn’t)

 

This is a judgment-free, hype-woman-filled community. No cliques. No mean-girl vibes. No pretending we have it all together.

 

Here, we do life with honesty, laughter, grace—and sometimes a happy cry when we finally figure something out. If you’ve found your way here, you’re already part of the Lialaine family.

 

So…welcome. Let’s grow, support and rise—together.

​

xoxo,
