FROM BURNOUT TO BREAKTHROUGH
WELLNESS FIVE
Helping People and Teams
Build Habits That Actually Last
Lisa Burbage is a nationally recognized wellness coach, keynote speaker, and workplace strategist helping people—and the organizations they power—build healthier habits that last.
As the founder of Wellness Five, Lisa brings a science-backed, heart-forward approach to sustainable well-being. Her signature programs have empowered hundreds of individuals and teams across the country to make meaningful changes across five core wellness pillars: sleep, nutrition, movement, stress management, and connection.
Lisa’s work is deeply personal. After overcoming both food addiction and breast cancer, she made it her mission to help others reclaim their health and their time—without relying on rigid diets, quick fixes, or unsustainable willpower. For over a decade, she’s helped high-achievers and health skeptics alike experience what it feels like to finally feel good again.
Lisa is a master trainer for the CDC’s National Diabetes Prevention Program (NDPP), a National Board-Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC), and a proud partner to organizations ready to make wellness more than just a buzzword. Her programs have impacted Fortune 500 companies, healthcare systems, HR teams, and Medicare wellness initiatives—delivering measurable outcomes in weight loss, energy, mood, team connection, and reduced risk of chronic disease.
Alongside a trusted team of board-certified coaches, Lisa ensures every client gets the support, accountability, and personalization they need to succeed. Together, they bring depth, diversity, and consistency to every engagement—whether working with individuals, departments, or company-wide initiatives.
When she’s not coaching or teaching, Lisa can be found cooking with her husband, walking the Charleston coastline, or swapping green smoothie recipes with her growing crew of health converts.
I used to think I was “doing wellness right.”
I exercised. I worked hard.
I checked all the boxes.
But deep down, I didn’t feel well.
My relationship with food was chaotic, my energy was unpredictable, and stress had me running on fumes. When I was diagnosed with breast cancer, everything stopped. And in that silence, I realized I wasn’t living the life I wanted—physically, emotionally, or mentally.
That wake-up call sent me on a mission—not just to heal, but to understand what true well-being looked like. I returned to school, became a certified coach, and immersed myself in the science of behavior change.
I discovered that health isn’t a destination—it’s a set of small, daily choices that accumulate over time. And it’s easier when we’re not doing it alone.
That’s why I built Wellness Five—and why I’m proud to work alongside a dedicated team of coaches who share my commitment to making health simple, sustainable, and human.
Together, we’ve helped thousands of people rewrite their wellness story—and we’d be honored to be part of yours.
While Lisa’s story sparked the creation of Wellness Five, she’s far from a one-woman show.
Today, Wellness Five includes a dedicated team of certified coaches—each handpicked for their expertise, empathy, and passion for helping others thrive.
Whether you’re working with Lisa directly or one of her trusted team members, you’ll receive the same level of care, evidence-based guidance, and accountability that sets Wellness Five apart.
