Lisa Gylsen
Lisa Gylsen left the corporate world of IT and began her own business in the natural health and nutrition industry. She has studied widely in the fields of communication, self improvement and personal development. Her skill set ranges from project management to marketing and especially team building and leadership training. She now focuses on Customised Holistic Health Coaching where she incorporates nature-based practices into her program.

Lisa later participated in the Rediscovery International Youth Traineeship Programme with fellow Director Marina Robb in 2003 and Wilderness Training with the Rediscovery Foundation in Canada. She assisted with the Rediscovery pilot programme and in 2004 became Director of CLR.
