Meet Lisa
My name is Lisa… and I’m a Business Development Consultant + Wellness Intelligence Therapist
Having developed basic teaching and communication skills as a waterski instructor for kids for seven summers and having honed my design and marketing skills working for two years launching a new paint line for a major retailer, I realized that I needed to work on my own, and was determined to make a difference. There was a real niche for supporting and starting small businesses in 1994 … it was something new. There was also a need (as there is now) for businesses who operated morally and ethically, with a higher purpose.
Borden Communications + Design Inc. was born in November of 1994 in the corner of my one bedroom apartment, when I was 22 years old. No money, no partner, no business plan – just a goal … to over deliver on every promise while maintaining a passion for the work at hand. I opened our virtual community centre, The Wellness Intelligence Collective, in 2021 in order to create a virtual property where I could connect like-minded entrepreneurs and individuals with each other, and share favourite things, practices, and people.
I have been creating the conditions for positive change and healthy outcomes for conscious people and brands for over 25 years, and every day I strive to surpass my initial goals … dedication and business ethics are, of course, still the cornerstone of my business. Borden Communications remains a small business, allowing me and our mighty little team to actively collaborate on all programs and projects. Together, we efficiently deliver solutions that work and support humans world-wide to find success, evolve, and feel good.
Personally, I am known as a instigator with a big heart. I am known to be able to affect change, I am known for my integrity and authenticity, but mostly I am known to be relentless in the pursuit of results. I am recognized for my consistency, as a leader in ideas, and I’m proud of my long list of special projects.
I am married to my summer camp sweetheart and I am a mother to three incredible children. These four people are my everyday inspiration to continually seek out more innovative, more creative and simply better ways at doing the same thing. I am a self-declared Unconventional Idealist, Empathic Economist, seven-time published author, learner/unlearner, Reiki Master, chocoholic, lifeaholic, and hopeaholic.

Meet Megan
My name is Megan… and I’m the Director of Execution + Evolution
I’ve been a proud member of the Borden Team since 2011. How fitting is it, based on what we do around here, that I initially connected with @LisaBorden on Twitter? I was attracted to her conscious tweets and good energy, and immediately sent Lisa an email to ask her if she was growing her team, and as you might imagine, she was at that time. More proof that social media works to bring the right people together to do good things.
Every day since (almost), has been an incredible learning experience, full of brainstorming, creating, trying new things, meeting inspiring people, and discovering new ways to make our clients lives and businesses more efficient, effective, and profitable. I’m grateful to be so deeply involved in all of our meaningful work.
Although I now work virtually, I feel connected to Lisa, our work, our clients, and our community in The Wellness Intelligence Collective and in real life 24/7. Being a member of the Borden Team isn’t a job, it’s a lifestyle.

Meet Rob
My name is Rob… and I’m the Director of Papers + Property
I’m in charge of all the “important” jobs like bookkeeping, accounting, government filing, systems and technology, lighting, and my personal favourite, proof reading. My biggest claim to fame around here is that I was the first Good Human interview in The Wellness Intelligence Collective. I got this coveted job, in addition to my career, by being Lisa’s partner in life.
