Welcome back to break*through!

break*through is THE IDEALISTS. newest venture where we matchmake visionary women with world-class Executive Coaches.


Today, you get a peek into this process by listening in on Alisa’s session.

In 2015, in the middle of living her best life, 45-year-old, New York-based branding executive and former Armani & Calvin Klein model, Alisa woke up in the hospital after having shattered her face and jaw during an epileptic seizure in the grocery store on the upper west side of Manhattan. Unable to speak, fired from her job, and now permanently disfigured, Alisa found herself trapped in a narrative loop of grief and anxiety she could have never anticipated—one that’s still deeply impacting how she comports herself in interviews and meetings.

Alisa is working with a career coach who helps professional women navigate and remove barriers in their careers so that they can show up as themselves and move forward and upward.


This week, we dive deep into the issue of the “stuck” narrative—something we all grapple with at some point or another in our lives, but for our guest today and her coach—the traumatic narrative has been on repeat for so long—she’s called on the much-needed services of an Executive Coach to help her finally disrupt and transform it.

This break*through session is sponsored by Ideas Collide.
