MEET THE FOUNDER
LISA BRUTON
PIONEER AND DIRECTOR OF ARISE SANCTUARY
I am a speaker, mother to two beautiful girls, wife to an incredible man, friend to many, and the founder and director of Arise Sanctuary —a ministry designed to create spaces for people to rest, recharge, and reconnect with God.
One of my greatest passions is crafting environments where people can pause and truly hear God’s voice. Whether I’m facilitating a luxury retreat, engaging in a one-on-one conversation, or speaking before a room full of people, I cherish every opportunity to help others experience His presence.
In 2016, I fulfilled a dream I’d nurtured for over eight years by launching boutique retreats for women—a space to step away from the noise, connect with God, and discern what He is saying in this season and the seasons to come. Since then, we’ve hosted over 40 retreats across Australia and internationally, witnessing transformational encounters as God meets each woman uniquely. We now focus on creating spaces through events, including mentoring, coaching, women's events, business events and our Open Mic events, to allow people to hear from God in this same way.
I have been privileged to speak at conferences, churches, and online events in Australia and overseas. My speaking engagements include large events for businesses and entrepreneurs— including collaborating with Ed Rush—to inspire leaders to hear God’s voice in their endeavors. I also host the podcast Brave with Lisa, share insights in my book Treasure, and offer a six-month coaching program designed to empower personal and spiritual growth.
Every speaking opportunity, coaching session, and day retreat is a chance to share what God has placed on my heart—to guide others into a deeper, more authentic connection with His voice and with the Father’s heart.
How can we serve you?
"Thank you for a truly life changing weekend. I am very, very grateful - so much more than I can ever say. Every detail was so full of love and so beautiful and I’ve NEVER felt so spoilt in my life. I am so awakened after the weekend and incredibly thankful that you have bought back parts of my hopes and heart back to life."
