ABOUT LISA PHILLIPS

From Survivor to Advocate, From Silence to Voice

Lisa Phillips is more than her story—she is the living proof that survival can be transformed into purpose. A former international model and commercial actress, Lisa’s life took a radical turn when she found herself entangled in the darkest chapters of abuse and exploitation. Where many would have remained silent, Lisa chose to speak. Where shame tried to hold her hostage, she chose to reclaim her power.

Today, she stands not only as a survivor but as a fierce advocate, award-nominated podcaster, and a voice for countless others still finding the courage to rise.

A Mission Born of Truth

Lisa founded her platform and podcast, From Now On, with one mission: To unite, heal, empower, and educate.

Her work is dedicated to breaking stigma, amplifying survivor voices, and creating spaces where healing can be both personal and collective. Through every episode, every interview, every conversation, Lisa makes one thing clear: silence is no longer an option.

every headline means another survivor might see themselves reflected and know they are not alone.

Lisa is not just a host—she is a speaker, advocate, and educator.

Lisa collaborates with organizations, appears on panels, and leads conversations that challenge societal systems, shift cultural narratives, and create tangible change.

Her voice has become a bridge: connecting survivors with one another, connecting communities with resources, and connecting the public with the realities too often left in the dark.
