It’s easy to lose one’s sense of self in the daily shuffle of life – whether falling out of touch with passions and hobbies, feeling trapped in a loveless relationship or experiencing a decline in self-esteem, it can happen to just about anyone. In author Lisa Marie Runfola’s memoir, “A Limitless Life in a Powerless World,” she offers her own insights into this phenomenon and provides readers with inspiration to help them shake off insecurities, toxicity and fear and live a life of authentic, resolute joy.
Through seamless transitions between storytelling and teaching, Runfola’s book takes readers on a journey from her charming childhood in Buffalo, N.Y., through her first marriage and divorce. It sweeps them up as she adventures abroad with her second husband, and it brings them back down to earth as she finds herself supporting her ex during his battle with cancer and, ultimately, grieving his death. Each evocative vignette Runfola shares transports the reader to a moment in her life and invites them to relate to it and learn from it as she has.
“While you read through the chapters of this memoir, you will see that I have had choices at every step in my life,” Runfola wrote in the prologue of her book. “It is what I did with these choices that molded me into the person I am today. Overall, I chose to live my life with purpose. I took the unknown path many times, backed up with my faith in God. It is my hope that parts of my story will resonate with you so you, too, can face your own powerlessness without letting it limit you.”
Ultimately, “A Limitless Life in a Powerless World” primes readers to be open to the gifts life bestows to them daily and accept these gifts with the deepest gratitude. Even in powerless positions, one’s limitless life is still waiting to be lived.
“I would like to thank Lisa Marie Runfola for sharing her journey with us. It was truly captivating and inspiring to read her heartfelt experiences that led her on her path to her limitless life.

Through her joyous moments to her tragic grief she will INSPIRE you to take a leap of faith and live life not just in the moment but with purpose.”
