Welcome to The Main Character Effect!

Ever been told you’re too much?

Too intense. Too emotional. Too obsessed with movies no one else understands?

Same!

I’m Lisa Hatzenbeller – lifelong movie lover and creator of The Main Character Effect, a space where movies, memory, and meaning collide.

This isn’t just about movies. It’s about identity, self-worth, and finally stepping into the role you were always meant to play.

Your Story. Your Stage.

You weren’t too much.
You just weren’t the main character — yet.
