At just 10 years old, Lisa Yeakley learned what it felt like to believe she wasn’t enough.
A new school. A pair of blue cotton pants. A classroom full of whispers.
What seemed like a small moment became the beginning of years of perfectionism, self-doubt, body image struggles, and hiding parts of herself to feel safe.
In this powerful WHEN Stories talk, Lisa shares how childhood shame followed her into adulthood… impacting her confidence, motherhood, health, business, and identity. But she also shares how she began breaking generational cycles, redefining confidence, and learning that perfection is not the price of worthiness.
This story is for anyone who has ever:
• Struggled with feeling “not enough”
• Battled perfectionism or people pleasing
• Felt insecure about their appearance or weight
• Hidden parts of themselves to fit in
• Wanted to break unhealthy family patterns
• Tried to build real confidence and self-worth
Lisa’s story is a reminder that healing doesn’t happen through perfection… it happens through honesty, awareness, and courage.
