Lisa K. Rayner Featured on Business RadioX

Author Lisa K. Rayner recently sat down with Business RadioX during the Shelf Life of a Trophy Wife book launch event at the Johnson Lowe Gallery in Buckhead.

In a heartfelt and unfiltered conversation, Lisa shared the inspiration behind her deeply personal memoir—a bold, raw account of survival, identity, and reclaiming power after enduring years of abuse in silence.

While the title might suggest a playful tale, Lisa revealed the emotional weight behind her story, exploring taboo topics like gender roles, trauma, and resilience as a Southern Baptist woman. With candor and strength, she spoke about the decade-long journey of writing the book, the healing and heartache that came with reliving painful memories, and her hope that her story empowers other women to come forward and say, “me too.”
