Fearlessly Improvising and Redefining the Road to Happiness with Lilith Electra

Stories We Haven't Shared

In today’s episode, Lilith Electra (she/her) shares her experience as a trans, white person who navigated her gender transition while working in academia. Whether she’s discussing her transition or passion for improvisational comedy, Lilith lives by example when she says, “When we're about to be our greatest…our fear gets the loudest.” In this episode, Lilith tells the story of emerging from a difficult period in her life by boldly redefining herself in support of her well-being and fulfillment. Her choices led her to a highly-successful career in sales, where she authentically challenges and empowers others to embrace their uniqueness - and fearlessly pivot in support of their own happiness.
Lilith Electra is a sales rockstar in the Admissions Department of iPEC Coaching, a life coach helping people with work and gender transitions - and an improvisational performer.
