Lisa VanderBoom
Shakespeare once
said some are born to greatness and others have greatness
thrust upon them. When greatness
came
knocking for Lisa VanderBoom, she tried
to hide. She got married, had a child and moved into the suburban
life. She did the practical things, earned an MBA and got a job in
corporate
America. Lisa basically locked the
door and pulled down the shades.
Destiny, however, is hard to avoid.
It all started in
1987 when Lisa, just 21 years old, went to a psychic in
her hometown of Milwaukee,
Wisconsin. This was not one of those entertaining but useless visits to
the local psychic. This was
something entirely different. The psychic downloaded, in detail, the
events of Lisa’s future: relationships, events,
past lives she would discover,
things she would do and the revelation of her mission in life; to use
this whole experience to write a book to share with others that there is
more to our reality than what we know through only our five senses.
“It was so detailed,” Lisa said, “I
couldn’t believe it. While part of me couldn’t accept it at the time,
another part of me resonated so deeply with it. But I would not be able
to hold that grander version of myself for many years and many lessons
later.”
Ten years
after the psychic reading, it
all started to come true. Lisa met the people predicted to her, she
found information on past lives and karmic relationships, and events
unfolded just as foretold. So many details coming true outside her
control led her to accept the reality that her life was indeed an
example for others to learn about the depth of love and the
expansiveness of life. And, of course, in the end, was the book.
In 2003, Lisa
published Awakenings: A
Story of Love for a New
Consciousness in which she
detailed the remarkable experiences that that lead her
to realize that we are living in a subset of a higher reality.
“I wrote the book to
encourage others to ask the questions ‘Why am I
here?’ and “What should I do
with my life?’” VanderBoom says. “I am
particularly interested in
helping people take a glimpse into the grandness of who they really are,
to help them take
ownership of their own greatness and
manifest the lives for which they were destined. We are at a time of a
great shift in human consciousness, and as we each become more aware of
who we really are, we will become more aware of what to do with our
lives. This will lead us to living more fulfilled and having deeper
experiences of love.”
Today, Lisa is on
staff at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (www.noetic.org), which serves
on the forefront of a global shift in consciousness by bridging the
worlds of science and spirit. She is also the co-founder of LightStream
Productions (www.LightStreamers.Com), an organization that
promotes world transformation
through individual spiritual growth.
Since Awakenings
first appeared, Lisa has spoken to audiences throughout the United
States. And now that she is no longer running
from her destiny, Lisa has found
herself at peace and fulfilled with the evolution of her life’s path and
mission. She makes her home in scenic northern California where she
lives with her daughter and
tries to put her experiences in
perspective.
“I’m not a spiritual
teacher or a guru, I am just an example for what is true for all of us,”
Lisa says. “Don’t follow me, learn from me. When we can find each
other in our deepest places of knowing, when we can interact beyond fear
to the level of the soul, we can then take this human experience and
make it something truly divine.”
