In this intimate live conversation, The Sitdown UK goes beyond the bars and the headlines to uncover the woman behind the legacy, Lisa Maffia as a mother, a daughter, a businesswoman, and a cultural force still evolving.
We’ll explore her journey through music, but also dig into what came after , the challenges of being a woman in a male-dominated industry, the pivot into entrepreneurship, the power of self-reinvention, and what legacy truly means when the lights fade. Join us at The Sitdown Experience.
