Joy Lies on the Other Side of Fear

Faith to Conquer Fear

Join Christy Demetrakis and her special guest Lisa Condie for "Joy Lies on the Other Side of Fear" Tuesday, January 5th at 6:30 pm EST. About Lisa Condie: Lisa Condie is a featured contributor to both the Huffington Post and TUT.com. In 2014, she was named one of Huffington Post's '50 Over 50', and featured on the Today Show. Lisa went to Italy on vacation in 2012. On her last day there, she made the decision of a lifetime to move to Florence! She wrote about her adventures of life in Italy and, as her readership grew, women started writing to her. They were asking Lisa to show them around Tuscany. Interested in her story, they also wanted to discover their own inner strength and courage. To answer that request, Lisa co-founded A Better Way to Italy, and recently founded, Find Yourself in Tuscany. Lisa Condie is a native of Salt Lake City, Utah, now living in Florence, Italy. While raising two children, she enjoyed a career in the fitness industry that spanned thirty-two years. She was an instructor, personal trainer, presenter, and owned two fitness related companies. In August of 2012, she sold her home and most of what was in it, left her business, retired her aerobic shoes, said goodbye to friends and family, to head for Tuscany. Being a resident of Italy has allowed Lisa to cultivate relationships with the very people that FYI Tuscany will depend on. By knowing them, the culture and the city intimately, attendees will have an experience beyond that of a regular tourist. She has hand-picked the tours, hotel rooms and restaurants. But, most of all, she wants to share her passion and skills with other women. While every chapter in our life comes with challenges and curve balls, every woman can find a way to be joyful. Lisa is a seeker of joy and a believer in serendipity.
