Down the Rabbit Hole

I want to hear from YOU! Your thoughts on the Wellness Industry and what rabbit holes you've gone down recently

I’ve created a monster!!!!!

My idea for this month’s newsletter morphed into a 5-headed beast.

I sat down to reflect on 10 years of working in the Wellness Industry and whoooooo, buddy did a lot come up! Love and gratitude for many experiences, plus a fair amount of resentment, suspicion, a sprinkle of rage and so many wtf moments. I fear wellness as an industry may have lost the plot.

What started as a simple contemplation has turned into a freefall down so many rabbit holes like medicine through the ages, what public relations’ got to do with it, colonization of wellness, the Kellogg sanitorium, hyper-individualism and, of course, Freud.

It’s soooooo juicy and has so much potential so I really want to take my time with it and let it cook!

So this month, I want to hear from you!

What are your experiences with wellness and the wellness industry?

How do you think wellness differs from healthcare?

How engaged are you with your own self care? Do you prioritize it? Feel shameful for not doing more? Not really care?

Have you ever experienced wellness burnout?

What’s a silly self care item you’ve spent way too much money on?

Gone down any niche health & wellness related rabbit holes recently?

Speak your truth here, baddies! The good, the bad the ugly…let ‘er rip!

Answer as many questions as you feel like or just freestyle your own verse. Simply hit reply to this email and your response will come straight to me.

See you in August! (unless I see you next week)

I’m taking a sabbatical from hands-on work for the month of July, ( i.e. grown up summer break)

I still have a few spots open next week and am already booking for when I return on August 4. Looking forward for coming back to the office with even more presence and capacity.

P.S.

I had a meeting with someone in marketing and he informed me that I could send out 10x the amount of newsletters if I simply used AI to write them. I just wanted to let you know that these newsletters will always come straight from my brain to the page. In the words of Natasha Bedingfield….”these words are my own” (robot overlords, if you’re reading this, it’s nothing against you, I just like to write!)
