Meet Life Coach Lisa Marie Matejka:

Name: Lisa Matejka, ND, MS

Pillar: The Mind, The Body, The Heart

Who is this coach for: Women in their 40s or 50s facing breast cancer who are ready to explore the deeper emotional, mental, and energetic roots of their condition and take an active role in their own healing journey.

How they can help: By guiding clients through a transformational process using tools such as subconscious mind work, guided visualizations, HeartMath, coherence training, Thought Field Therapy, and NeuroLinguistic Programming to activate their inner healing capacity and create shifts on multiple levels.

First of all, how are you and your family doing in these “crazy” times?

Isn’t it always crazy times in some way or another?

My partner and I do well by not getting trapped in the drama of the world, but by staying fully engaged in our own world.

For one, we will never know the full truth of what is happening out there.

Second, if there is nothing we can realistically do to change it, the best thing we can do for everyone involved is to be the best version of ourselves.

This offers people hope, inspiration, stability, happiness, and permission to shine their own light.

And thirdly, acceptance is key.

We are in a world that is not designed to be perfect, but to give us a classroom to learn and grow.

How did the coronavirus pandemic affect your clients? Did it affect you at all?

I was practicing naturopathic medicine and energy work during this time in Portland, OR.

It was a difficult place to be, as they wanted most places shut down.

This is when I started doing more telemedicine, which ended up being a blessing.

This is now my paradigm today, as I mostly conduct virtual visits.

The Origin:

Tell us about you, your career, how you started with your coaching career?

I will spare you the life story, but I have been a practicing naturopathic doctor for almost nine years.

I have been an energy worker for about eight years.

Coaching is my most recent addition, about two years officially.

I always knew that when it came to those with a cancer diagnosis, which is my specialty, there was commonly a root to cancer that stemmed from the mental, emotional, energetic, or even spiritual planes.

As an ND, we have tenets such as treat the root.

Well, the root of cancer is often repressed emotions, unprocessed trauma, lack of boundaries and self love, grief, and so much more.

I did not feel qualified to help my patients with this aspect fully, although I often brought it to their awareness, and the energy work helped.

However, it was only recently that I stepped more fully into my power and heeded the call to serve in this manner.

I created a thorough coaching program designed to help awaken one’s own innate healing powers, get the subconscious mind on board, tackle the true root, and many other powerful elements.

I feel this program was divinely inspired.

I led my first client through it free of charge, and she initially went downhill.

This young woman ended up in hospice, only to then find her true power and heal herself with the tools I handed down.

She made a miraculous recovery.

Now I knew this truly is what I am meant to be doing.

What was your biggest obstacle that you had to overcome in your life that made you who you are today?

Oh gosh, there were probably many medium sized ones rather than one big one.

I think one of the biggest obstacles I have overcome is taking on a calling such as this.

It could be considered super stressful, as people’s literal lives are placed into my hands.

I was the kind of person in high school with such great anxiety that I was known as the girl who did not talk.

I almost never spoke, and I never got up from my seat because I could not handle any attention being drawn to myself or any type of pressure.

I was known as a freak and a weirdo.

Now I create videos on social media, market myself, and, as I said, take on people’s lives in my hands.

It is quite a feat and a contrast.

What are the biggest lessons that you learned overcoming your greatest obstacle?

Anybody is capable of anything with the right thoughts and the right environment.

The only thing you really need is persistence.

You get persistence from a strong why.

One of my favorite lessons has always been to expect the unexpected. And never judge a book by its cover. (The classics)

The Coaching Style:

How do you innovate with coaching your clients?

If I understand this question correctly, I do have a structure, but everyone is unique, so we adapt and flow within that structure.

It is customized to what each individual needs, as no health plan should be one size fits all.

What’s unique about your coaching approach?

Everything.

Okay, lots of things.

The fact that I am coaching for the reason I am coaching, in the niche I am coaching.

The fact that a transformational life coaching program, not just a health coaching program, is a legitimate answer to cancer.

That is not to say they should not be doing other things.

I am all about medicine to treat the physical body, energy work to address the energy body, and life coaching to treat the mind.

This also addresses the energy body, which then ripples out into the physical body, as the body is a reflection of the mind.

My program is so unique that people are not really searching for it because they do not understand that it is something they need and something that can truly improve their condition.

What benefits do your clients get after working with you?

The ultimate goal is, of course, to awaken their inner healer so that they can heal themselves of cancer.

But I am not God, and it is not something I could ever promise.

This newfound power then ripples into other areas of their life, and it is so beautiful to behold.

People become themselves authentically and unapologetically.

Priorities shift.

Blocks are cleared.

Weights are shed.

They find purpose, passion, and a whole host of good things that a cancer journey can bring.

They basically become healthier physically, mentally, emotionally, energetically, and sometimes even spiritually.

It is the whole enchilada.

At the very least, people become more aware of themselves and their lives.

They heal family wounds and traumas.

They find peace before they go.

Do you use any specific tools to be efficient with your clients?

Yes, many.

I cannot name them all here.

I like to create interactive experiences.

I utilize brain exercises, HeartMath, coherence training, guided visualizations, journaling, writing, worksheets and homework, books, brainwave training, TFT (Thought Field Therapy), NLP (NeuroLinguistic Programming), other subconscious mind tools, affirmations, emotional discharge techniques, other science based techniques, processes, quizzes, and more.

The Impact:

If you had a super megaphone that, when you speak into, the whole world will hear your message, what would you say?

I would say that there is a cure for cancer, so look no further.

It is doing the inner work.

Do not expend energy fighting cancer.

Sit on the other side of the table from it and ask, “Why are you here?”

Ask, “What are you trying to show me?”

It is not the enemy.

It is a messenger.

A warning.

There is something you are holding onto that not only no longer serves you but is harming you.

What is the greatest lesson you have learned in your life?

That I have more power than I even understand.

I have the power to create.

I am not talking about procreation.

I am talking about the power to create my reality and even to create who I am.

Your final thoughts?

If you know anyone with cancer, understand that even if they say otherwise, there are very likely deeper levels of work to be done.

This is key.

I know I am considered a maverick and renegade right now, but this will become the norm in the future.

People need to look within and heal wounds they may or may not even be aware of.

Also add in naturopathic medicine, whether you are doing conventional treatment or not.

Add it in.

It can help make conventional treatment more effective.

It can also protect susceptible organs and tissues from damage and mitigate side effects, providing a higher quality of life.
