Follow My Journey
Taking you back to where it all started!
EARLY YEARS
Lisa Roper’s story begins in the quiet beauty of northern Alberta, where gravel roads, open fields, and endless skies shaped her earliest memories. Growing up on a rural farm taught her to appreciate simple moments.
For Lisa, the outdoors was never an escape; it was home, grounding her with a sense of wonder that would follow her throughout her life.
MAKING MEMORIES
Lisa’s connection to nature deepened through the time she spent with her dad, her first mentor and constant companion in the wilderness. He placed her first fishing rod in her hands and encouraged her to listen – really listen – to the world around her.
Early mornings on mist-covered lakes became moments of quiet teaching, where patience, respect, and reflection mattered more than the catch.
These shared memories are the heart of Lisa’s journey, shaping not only her skills but her outlook on life and the outdoors.
``The wild wasn't just a playground. It was where I felt alive, curious, and free`` - Lisa Roper
EXPANDING HORIZONS
From Alberta’s lakes to the remote northern landscapes of the Yukon and beyond, every adventure added to her understanding of the outdoors – she developed a deep appreciation for conservation, stewardship, and sustainable practices.
Time in the wilderness taught her that nature gives generously, but it also relies on our care and respect in return.
Her personal philosophy is simple: when we respect the land and water, they continue to sustain us – and future generations.
Her commitment to conservation is woven into everything she does, becoming a core part of her story and her purpose.
TODAY
Today, Lisa is devoted to helping others discover what the outdoors has given her — confidence, healing, and resilience. Through her storytelling, hands-on education, and warm, approachable nature, she creates opportunities for families, women, youth, and new anglers to experience the outdoors at their own pace.
She teaches not just how to fish or explore, but how to be present, patient, and open to the lessons nature quietly offers. For Lisa, sharing the journey is a way of honouring her roots – and passing on the gifts that shaped her life to future generations.
