Show Notes

Lisa Friedlander is that family member, friend, colleague, and mentor that we all want in our lives. She is strong, smart, and super driven, and that has been evident throughout her personal and professional life.


But, sharing all of these essential qualities with other people has come at a cost at times for Lisa because she has not always put herself first.


By listening to our show today about Lisa, you will learn about the following:


  • How her daughter was born at 1.5 pounds, the struggle for her family, and how she turned that crisis into an opportunity at Children’s Hospital in Washington, DC;


  • Why she decided to become an entrepreneur and start a company with her best friend (and the many lessons she learned from that adventure);


  • And hear what Lisa is up to at her exciting job at NEXT where she is able to be a friend, mentor, legal advisor, and ass-kicker to start-ups looking for sound leagal advice. 


Breakers band together and be prepared to make a friend as we listen to Lisa’s bruises and brilliance.
