LISA ANNESE

MS. NEW JERSEY 2025

Lisa Annese is a dedicated practitioner and teacher of Kundalini yoga and meditation, sound healer, motivational speaker, author, retreat leader, death doula, spiritual guide and owner of The Divine Sound, a spiritual healing center in Wyckoff, NJ. She is proud to be a voice of change to help others utilizing her spoken, written and singing voice to support her clients and beyond. 

 

As a divorced single mother and hearing loss advocate (supporting the needs of her son who has permanent hearing loss), she chose to walk the path of truth, trusting her own spirit with strength, grace, love and light as the answer to her darkness. A testament to the truth that challenges are your greatest blessings, Lisa became a true “guru” at heart in her ability to transform the dark into light in her own life for her and her two boys. This act of bravery, courage and ability to be vulnerable changed the narrative and future for her family.  

In her first book, I Am Light, 180 Days to Remember Who You Are, Lisa openly shares her path to finding her own light; she is currently living her second life as a "Rising Phoenix." Her vulnerability to share stories from her past is used as an opportunity to educate and help others to do the same for themselves.  

 

She understands that life is full of learning experiences for your soul and that the light in your life can only exist because of the darkness that you had to endure. The main takeaways from her teachings are: to express your own personal gratitude for all the blessings that come your way, remain present, live simply, go with the flow and truly embrace the gifts that are waiting for you.   

 

Prior to this, Lisa worked in public accounting as a CPA and human resources professional for approximately ten years at Ernst & Young, before she chose to stay home and raise her boys. 

 

Lisa is passionate about helping others, as a Pisces, she thrives near the water and loves the magic of Sedona.  However, her main focus is her young boys and she is grateful to be their mother to support their transition from boy to man. As a family, they are visiting every MLB baseball stadium and have seen 10 stadiums so far.    

 

As a resident of Franklin Lakes in Bergen County, Lisa is an active parishioner and mass lector at The Most Blessed Sacrament and is blessed to share her home with her boys, Anthony and Michael and their 2 toy poodles, Roco & Ruby.
