About me
I´m Lisa Lestander, a musician, mentor, guide and co-traveller on the path of discovering a new way of being human - one that aligns ever more deeply with what existence is asking of us. I am the founder of the World Mother Initiative, and I guide others while exploring for myself, how we can support a collective shift into a new and truer reality. My passion is to hold space for my clients as they crystallize the deepest soul longings they hold for their individual lives, supporting them in aligning with those longings as a way to awaken the world soul.
I also know the challenges of this path through my own experience. I continuously meet the parts in me that resist change, that want to stay hidden, and that shy away from fully owning my role in how the world unfolds. Yet I’ve discovered that meeting the unworkability within myself and the world - and holding the great paradox of it all - creates pathways for newness and transformation.
The dreams, longings, and desires that truly come from our soul are inherently aligned with the world soul and the highest good of all. Living in coherency with our dreams is thus an act of sacred service. Ultimately, this work is an offering to the highest potential for life on Earth, and I am deeply devoted to it.
“When we surrender to our highest service to life, life is automatically in service to us, creating the most sacred of collaborations.”
- Lisa Lestander
My Story
I grew up in the north of Sweden and experienced a peaceful, joyful and simple childhood. My greatest loves were horses, cats and music. There was a natural trust in life and that existence at its core is good and wants the very best for us. Despite this, I had a sense that something about the world and my relationship to it was out of alignment and not what it could be, or wanted to be. From time to time, I would spontaneously flip into another perception of the world: one where all fear was gone from my system, and all there was was an underlying vibration of love at the core of all that exists.
As I grew older, these memories stayed with me, but the way the world was showing up did not match them. I’d go through periods of intense grief, loneliness, and confusion, as I knew what was possible but it wasn’t yet the reality for myself or the world. A deeper part of me always knew that something else wanted to emerge - something truer, more real, and lasting.
Life still found its way. I followed what drew me - animal communication, yoga, Reiki healing and sacred singing. I completed a bachelor’s degree in traditional Swedish folk singing at the Royal Academy of Music in Stockholm and found myself being able to make a living as a singer. The underlying quest that moved me was to experience and know the true nature of existence. I studied Tibetan Buddhism and meditation, started teaching yoga and eventually came across the lineage of the avatars Mother of Pondicherry and Sri Aurobindo through the spiritual teacher Sat Shree. The encounter with this lineage was like coming home. It brought the experience of my body connecting to its true purpose: to be a conduit and an exploration ground for the heightened evolutionary forces of these times, forces that are bringing forth a new way of being human. It gave me knowledge about these times of intense change, our role and responsibility, and how to bridge the worlds.
With time I started creating spaces for the next expression of this lineage to come through the people joining. Through that process, the presence, power, love and evolutionary current I call the Mother made itself more and more known. I noticed that it would touch the people it encountered and deepen their alignment with the new potentials for life. I am deeply devoted to this presence and am being called to create this space in service to its manifestation. To guide us into the next expression for life on Earth - one where we are deeply connected to the interconnectedness of all that exists, yet experiencing the exquisiteness of our individuality in new ways. I do this out of love for humanity, out of love for this world and my lifelong longing for something truer.
My intention and deepest heart's wish is to guide souls into the experience of their true nature and the alignment of all aspects of their lives with the highest possibility, in harmony with the whole.
What enlivens me the most is to explore the true potential of being a human being at this time on planet Earth - together with others - and to collaborate in giving ourselves over to the currents of evolution.
