Lisa began her own weight loss journey in 2012 at 190lbs. She fell in love with fitness, nutrition and self-development, lost over 60lbs and gained a bottomless amount of confidence. It wasn't until she gained confidence in her physical health that she was able to gain confidence in her career. With her new found confidence she launched her first company, Professionally Fit, in July of 2015. At Professionally Fit, Lisa and her team helped clients bridge the gap between their health and their career by helping them to identify the areas of opportunity in their health and well-being which will translate to growth and productivity in their companies. After launching Professionally Fit Lisa quickly realized there was a segment of the population for whom health and wellness coaching was not accessible. She launched The Black Health Academy in October of 2017. The Black Health Academy pairs an E-learning platform with boots on the ground community initiatives and education experiences to ensure participants are empowered with the knowledge, skills and abilities to successfully state their case for fair and honest healthcare, chronic disease prevention and mental health. She is a speaker, coach, founder and community leader who epitomizes what it means to be Professionally Fit! www.lisaangelsmith.com
