Lisa da Rocha (COACH OF THE WEEK)
What I love the most about being a photographer is getting to ask people questions.
My photography sessions often feel like podcast interviews, because I get to dive deep into the magic of the person I’m shooting. Sometimes I think I unconsciously designed my HEARTshots process for this very reason: to deeply connect with some of the smartest and most driven people on the planet.
These are people who take big risks, often leaving a stable, well-paying job in order to follow their dreams.
People who decided to step out into a life that was new and undiscovered.
People who are driven to have a positive impact on the lives of others.
People who stop at nothing, until their life is totally aligned with their values and passions.
People—like Lisa Da Rocha.
I learned so much from Lisa in the time we spent together, and I am still inspired by the experience. And I am so grateful that I get to use my time on earth supporting wonderful leaders like her.
