It wasn't until a few
months later in June of 1993, that they really connected and shared a quiet
walk down the beach in Madison and realized how much they had in common!
Lots of brothers, loss of their fathers at young ages, their kids, values
and the love of the ocean just to name a few! Lisa and Sally's friendship
developed and the rest is, in fact, even a longer story! Shortly after this
famed stroll, Lisa discovered she was pregnant with her third child. In
January, 1994 Lisa and John were thrilled when they had a little girl to
join the family!
While raising her
young family, Lisa dabbled in assorted careers that would suit her family's
schedule. But she was constantly coming up with other more creative ways to
make a buck! Meanwhile, her friendship with Sally was blossoming and
together in the late 1990’s, they hatched the idea to share their daily
conversations with the world--on the radiowaves!
And now, they are
co-hosting their show, laughing, learning together and defining the world
for themselves and others. What fun! "Defining Women" debuted at WMRD in
Middletown and WLIS in Old Saybrook in August 2001. Sally and Lisa have been
having a ball ever since developing a program that features unscripted
conversations about everyday life! The program offers something much
different than most—it is civilized, fun, informative and flirty all at the
same time. Typically, the topics are easy for everyone to relate to…(yes--
that means men too!) Everything from important issues like domestic violence
to the sillier side—like kamikaze squirrels, sexy herbs and the newest men’s
grooming products are discussed…add updates on local events and people and
you’ve got "Defining Women with Lisa and Sally!"
Currently Lisa
complements her work on the radio with her own freelance marketing company,
eLLe Resources. She offers services in marketing, media,
business writing and personal and professional image management. Her most
recent project includes producing the “Unique Lives and Experiences” lecture
series at The Bushnell. She also is working on a long-term project at a
Public Relations agency where she coordinates media tours for consumer
products and book authors.
"I feel very lucky
to have been surrounded by amazing women throughout my life. Though I never
had the blessing of a sister, I have always had the friendship and support
of a great woman during every stage of my life.” she says. “Finding Sally
when I did was a real gift…She is the most grounded, instinctively wise
woman I know. She is so funny and has taught me so many things! Raising my
family with her around the corner was like winning the lottery!" And now,
Lisa is honored to be working with this remarkable woman and friend! They
are confident that the "Defining Women" have a bright future ahead. As
their friendship and their radio show evolves, they are certain of one
thing…they were meant to be on this journey together! Join the fun every
Monday LIVE at 12:30pm and again at 6:30 on WLIS 1420 AM and WMRD 1150AM!
...Now
meet Sally! |
