Ep. 54 with Alisa Rabin Bell | Founder of Lionheart Ventures

What happens when life forces you to completely reinvent yourself—not just once, but multiple times? Alisa Rabin Bell journey illuminates the powerful transformations that occur when we embrace life's unexpected turns rather than resist them.

From the moment her daughter was born in 2004, Alisa knew her priorities had fundamentally shifted. The corporate career she'd built no longer aligned with her deepest values, leading to her first entrepreneurial experiment with Mary Kay while staying home with her child. What followed was a winding path through nonprofit leadership, technology sales, and significant health challenges—each transition revealing new strengths and possibilities.

The most compelling aspect of Alisa' story may be how she navigated a major career pivot at age 45, transitioning from nonprofit fundraising to technology sales. "I wanted to show my daughter that you can redefine yourself at any age," she explains. This courage to reinvent herself repeatedly demonstrates the agility and resilience we rarely celebrate in our professional narratives. When health challenges later forced another pivot, she didn't simply survive—she used this difficult period to reconnect with her purpose and values.

Today, as founder of Lionheart Ventures, Alisa helps faith-based businesses create meaningful social impact programs that align with their core values. Her work reflects her unique spiritual journey as a Jewish woman who embraced Christianity, allowing her to bridge different traditions and perspectives. Meanwhile, her women's networking group, Moxie Mixer, addresses a practical need she identified in her community—further evidence of her entrepreneurial mindset.

Whether you're contemplating a career change, navigating health challenges, or considering entrepreneurship in midlife, Alisa's journey offers valuable wisdom. Her practical advice—"Don't give up your day job first, build clientele on evenings and weekends, but definitely leap because it's worth it"—speaks to both the challenges and rewards of charting your own path.
