Lisa DeLong RN is an international speaker, author, bereavement facilitator, ballroom dancer and mom! She inspires healthcare professionals and lay people with a powerful reconnect to the heart message using writing prompts, Salsa dancing, and humor. Audiences are transformed as they recognize the value of their life experience and remember who they truly are.
Her first-born son, Justin, died at the age of fifteen in 2000 after a ten-year remission from leukemia. Shockingly, six years later, her youngest son, Jacob, was diagnosed with the same kind of non-familial leukemia. He has completed treatments and is now a healthy teen!
Her memoir, BLOOD Brothers, is touching the hearts of readers all over the world and is now required reading for nursing students. Lisa blogs about her perspectives on dance, spirituality, living with fear, and returning to joy. She lives in Southern California with her husband of 35 years. Her surviving son and two adult daughters live creative lives in Oregon. Her family remains close and surprisingly sane.
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
Prior to joining Studer Group Speaker Bureau, Lisa was committed to assisting grieving families in the Los Angeles area, including leading grief groups, grief camps and attending the National Alliance for Grieving Children conference. She hosted Death Café Santa Clarita, an international movement toward normalizing conversations around death, and gave a TEDx talk titled, "Changing the Face of Death" at College of the Canyons TEDx in 2014. Lisa was the Family Outreach Coordinator for a local nonprofit supporting families who have a child with cancer. She volunteered at the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, American Cancer Society, Amgen Tour de California and a host of fundraising events. Her speaking career began when her memoir, BLOOD Brothers, became a popular resource among nurses, hospice agencies and cancer awareness groups.ver menos
