We were lucky to catch up with Lisa Murrell-Franks recently and have shared our conversation below.
Lisa, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today Can you share a customer success story with us?
I see so many people on a weekly basis who come to me with a variety of health challenges. I use the “Whole Person” approach versus focusing only on symptoms. A few months ago, a client reached out and wanted to come in for a wellness consultation as she was not feeling well and hadn’t felt well in a while. We started talking, she shared with me the challenges she was facing and the list was very long. As I was an assessing her, I asked about any past or recent traumas. Well, Oh boy, the flood gates were unleashed. I ran a few assessments and discovered that there were some imbalances for sure, but most of them stemmed from current and past traumas. We addressed the emotional piece first, then recommendations were made to support pH, lifestyle changes with diet and nutrition, managing stress, and making sure she was getting proper rest. Two to three weeks later, she stopped by and informed that she has not felt that well in years! She had tried conventional medicine, but the holistic piece was missing and that’s just what she needed. She remains a client today and we are still on this wellness journey! Remember, wellness is never an overnight process. It takes a while to bring the body back into balance after not taking care of it for a while.

Lisa, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
I am Lisa Murrell-Franks, founder and CEO of Total Man Wellness and a Certified Holistic Health Practitioner, Board Certified Doctor of Holistic Health and a Licensed Massage and Bodywork Therapist. I completed my training in Natural Medicine through Trinity School of Natural Health and my massage program at Coastal Community College in Jacksonville, NC. I have extensive knowledge in the field of Natural Health and have experienced the benefits of Natural Medicine in my own health.
I am passionate about helping people heal and restore their health. I understand that until the whole person (mind, body, and spirit) achieves balance, the body will not experience optimal health. I help transform my patients’ health by first determining the root cause of their health conditions and then develop a successful protocol to correct the problems. I listen extensively to my patients in order to put the “missing pieces” together – thus getting to the foundation of the problem.
MY STORY
I have experienced the benefits of Natural Medicine in my own health. Several years ago, my health was spiraling out of control. Daily, I suffered from severe fatigue and low energy, sleep issues, gastrointestinal issues, and hormone imbalances. The fatigue was so bad, I could hardly take care of my young son at the time.
After visiting a variety of doctors with no relief, I knew I needed to do something different. I enrolled in Trinity School of Natural Health and my journey has not been the same. I learned that diet and nutrition play a huge role in health and wellness. Addressing past and current traumas as well as managing stress is critical in maintaining wellness. Through a lot of prayer, eating whole foods, drinking pure water, and making some lifestyle modifications including incorporating herbs and natural supplements, my health started improving.
I am truly on this journey to help educate and show others there is a better way!
What’s worked well for you in terms of a source for new clients?
Word of mouth has been the best source of new clients for me. When you help others, they will tell others! I can say 80% percent of my clients are from word of mouth referrals!

Any stories or insights that might help us understand how you’ve built such a strong reputation?
Being able share videos, help tips, words of encouragement via social media (especially Facebook) has helped with building reputation within my market. In all honesty, achieving results with clients have built my reputation as well!
