Meet Lisa Faulkner:
Elite Performance Coach
Meet Lisa Faulkner
Lisa Faulkner has over 17 years of college basketball coaching experience. For her this was a transformative journey that shaped her both personally and professionally. Many student-athletes experienced success both on the court and in the classroom under Coach Faulkner’s leadership.
Her coaching philosophy is rooted in the principles of positivity, accountability, and empowerment. She believes that every athlete has the potential to excel, and it is her job as a Coach to help them unlock that potential. She strives to provide a supportive environment where athletes feel safe to take risks, challenge themselves, and grow both on and off the court.
Over the past five years she has enjoyed integrating the work of Dr. Joe Dispenza and the Law of Attraction into her coaching and everyday life. She has extensively studied Dr. Dispenza’s teachings and have incorporated them into her coaching approach. The Law of Attraction states that we attract into our lives whatever we focus on, whether positive or negative. By focusing on the positive outcomes and believing that they can be achieved, we can create a more fulfilling and successful experience for ourselves and our athletes.
In addition to her coaching career, she also had the opportunity to work in personal finance. In this role, she provides guidance and advice to individuals on various aspects of financial management, including budgeting, investing, and debt management. While her background in finance is important, she mostly recognizes the power of the mind in shaping our financial reality. Through the study of Dr. Joe Dispenza’s work and Law of Attraction, she has learned how our thoughts and beliefs can have a significant impact on our financial outcomes and every aspect of our daily lives
Faulkner also has an extensive background on the court. She began her playing career at Oregon City High School under 2015 National Basketball Hall of Fame inductee Brad Smith where she guided the Pioneers to two state titles. She was then recruited to play at UC Irvine where she was an All-Big West honorable mention and set the school-record for assists in a season. After her sophomore season, Faulkner transferred to Vanguard to finish out her playing career. While with the Lions she was named the NAIA co-Player of the Year in 2005, a two-time All-American and helped Vanguard reach the Elite Eight in both seasons.
She graduated from Vanguard in 2005 with a 3.8 grade point average and a degree in Sociology. She went on to earn her Master’s degree in Professional Studies from the University of Denver.
