Welcome !

Im Lisa Roy,  Pilates and Yoga teacher, business coach, and the founder of Lanarkshire Boss Mums Network.  I created this community because I believe mums in business deserve support that actually understands their lives. Not just the strategy, but the energy, the overwhelm, the mental load, and the relentless juggle of building something while raising a family.

​

My story isn't a straight line. Before entrepreneurship, I was a Senior Nurse Specialist  ambitious, qualified, on a fast track. By 30 I had a Master's degree, a senior post, and a lecturing role with PhD funding on the table. Then I got pregnant, and everything shifted. The life I'd built no longer fit, and I wasn't willing to miss out on motherhood to maintain it. So I made the bold choice to leave without a clear plan.

​

Then life threw another curveball. My partner had an accident, was made redundant, and couldn't work for nearly two years. I had to create income fast. That's when I learned something I now teach every day: you don't wait for the right moment. You create it.

​

In 2019 I qualified as a Pilates and Yoga teacher and built a successful wellness business in Strathaven. That journey taught me something that goes far beyond fitness  it taught me that how we feel in our bodies directly shapes how we show up in our businesses. When we're depleted, we shrink. When we feel grounded, clear, and strong, we grow. That mind-body connection is woven into everything I do as a coach.

​

In 2024, I spotted a gap that looked a lot like the one I'd lived through myself  mums in Lanarkshire with real ambition and no community that truly got it. So I launched Lanarkshire Boss Mums, which has grown into the go-to network for mums in business across the region.

​

My coaching blends hard-won business experience with the wellbeing tools I've spent years refining because I've never believed you can separate the two. I bring the credentials: a Master's degree, senior leadership experience, two businesses built from scratch, and a Business Management and Leadership degree I'm currently completing. But more than that, I bring the lived reality of doing all of this as a mum.

​

If you're ready to feel better, get clearer, and grow your business  on your own terms  you're in the right place.
