Meet the Founder,
Lisa Pender

Hello! My name is Lisa, and I am the founder of Digitally Well Inc.

I am an extremely passionate digital wellness educator, trainer, and speaker. There is nothing I enjoy more than meeting new teams, learning about their workplace “painpoints”, and then addressing their digital wellbeing challenges with tangible, evidence-based solutions.

For the past 15 years, I have been a college educator, teaching courses in sociology, office administration, health, and business. I am presently at Mohawk College in the Department of Liberal Studies, and happy to have launched the first-ever “Digital Wellness” Ontario college credit course in Fall 2023.

I achieved my Digital Wellness Educator certificate from the Digital Wellness Institute (’20) and I am also a graduate of the Mindfulness in Modern Society program at McMaster University (’22). I hold a Master of Arts degree from the University of Waterloo and an hons. B.A. from McMaster University (go Marauders!).

Reach out if you’re looking to:

  • Incorporate digital wellness into your existing wellness programs, but are not sure how
  • – Integrate digital wellness into a series or event
  • – Develop a tailored digital wellness strategy for your team or organization
  • – Address specific challenges related to digital overload or burnout
  • – Collaborate on a digital wellness initiative, either in education or industry

Our Approach

Our approach is holistic, evidence-based, and rooted in a deep understanding of how technology impacts our well-being. Through our training, participants gain practical skills and insights to manage digital overwhelm, set healthy boundaries, and use technology mindfully. We believe in empowering employees with the tools they need to thrive, not just survive, in their digital workspaces.

Why We Do It

We are driven by the belief that a healthier relationship with technology leads to happier, more productive employees and a more positive workplace culture. Studies reveal that digital distractions, tech-related stressors, and the pressure to be ‘always-on’ contribute to burnout and disengagement. By addressing these challenges, we aim to create work environments where individuals feel supported, balanced, and capable of achieving their best work.

Our Commitment

At Digitally Well Inc., we are committed to making workplaces better. Our training sessions are designed to foster a sense of accomplishment and well-being at the end of each day. We offer ongoing support through optional Post-Training Reflective Sessions, ensuring that behaviour change is sustained and meaningful.

Our vision is to see workplaces where technology enhances rather than hinders, where employees feel empowered rather than overwhelmed, and where well-being and productivity go hand-in-hand.
