The Lisa Show

What do philosophy, faith, and stand-up comedy have in common? More than you might think! Lisa sits down with comedian Pete Holmes for a conversation about God, truth, human nature, and why asking life’s biggest questions can be both meaningful and funny. They dive into philosophy, creativity, and what it means to say "yes, thank you" to everything life throws your way. Lisa and Pete share family memories, plenty of laughs, and even a few thoughts on hot drinks.

When your kids leave home, everyone talks about how proud you’ll be, but no one really prepares you for how much you might miss them. Lisa is officially an empty nester, and she’s finding this new phase of life much more emotional than she expected. Dr. Rachel Glick joins Lisa to talk about empty nest syndrome, what to expect when your kids become adults, how to navigate the grief and relief that can come with this transition, and how to build a new relationship with your adult children, your spouse, and yourself. Because an empty nest may feel like a loss, but it’s also proof that your kids have learned how to fly.

Why can it be so hard to accept a compliment? Dr. Marisa G. Franco, a psychologist, researcher, and author, joins Lisa to explore how our sense of self-worth shapes the way we experience friendship, love, kindness, and relationships. She'll explain where worth comes from and how to reclaim it when we don't feel good about ourselves.

What values do you want your kids to carry with them for the rest of their lives? Gary Dixon, president of the Foundation for a Better Life, joins Lisa to talk about the power of simple values like courage, kindness, gratitude, and compassion. They discuss the stories behind the Foundation’s famous “Pass It On” ads, how values shape our families and communities, and why Gary remains optimistic about the world around us.

Are your kids ready to leave home? And more importantly, are you ready to let them go? Lisa Heffernan of “Grown and Flown” talks with Lisa about preparing kids for adulthood—from knowing how to change an air filter to building the confidence and independence they need to figure things out on their own. They discuss the life skills that matter most, the importance of community, and why parenting doesn’t end when your kids move out—even when your role in their lives changes.
