Hey Friends, Hope you’re having a fantastic day. It’s Wellness Wednesday around these part, and If you follow me on Instagram, you’ve heard mention an exciting wellness event coming up this fall. [And if you aren’t following me on IG, what are you doing? It’s where the party’s at. ๐] Anyway, W.E.L.L. Summit 2018 NYC is almost here, and I’m more than a little excited, so I figured it’s about time to get YOU excited too. Have you heard of this event?
Want to join me? See below for an opportunity to WIN a Ticket.ย Winner will receive a general admission ticket valued at $449, as well as a W.E.L.L. Summit “Your Vibe Attracts Your Tribe” t-shirt (seen below). GIVEAWAY CLOSED
*As a W.E.L.L. Summit Insider my ticket to the event is gifted, but it’s position Iย applied for, so you know your girl is only sharing because of my 100% support for this event. Let me give you the details. ๐๐ฝ
What is the W.E.L.L. Summit?
W.E.L.L. Stands for Wellness. Empowerment. Learning. Luxury.
Aka, everything I wished I’d trademarked before Gianne, the founder, did. I’m not even kidding. Back when I was rebranding, I remember thinking, “I really wish W.E.L.L. Summit didn’t exist so that I could create it.” I’m mean, that’s a sure sign of genius. ๐คฉ ย But alas, my friends, I was “a day late, and a dollar short.” But then I thought that if I couldn’t be the genius behind it, you better bet your ass I’m going to support the genius behind it. So there I was, looking up everything I could find on the event and the founder and ya’ll…. ya’ll. Gianne is aย boss!
First Gianne founded Organic Bath Co, she saw a need, and she filled it. This started with her creation of beautiful, clean, non-toxic body care to address her own skin woes and it became so much more. She set out to learn all she could about clean ingredients and their impact on the body as well as the environment, and in doing so, she began educating her community. This connection is what led to the creation of the Wellness Destination now known as the W.E.L.L Summit. Oh… and she’s a woman of color out here making waves and influencing change. I mean, I’m here forย all of that!
So whatย exactly is W.E.L.L. summit? It’s a weekend-long event designed to explore and immerse yourself in all aspects of wellness (360ยบ of wellness; genius, right?). This event brings industry experts from every corner of wellness: clean eating, movement, green beauty, and spiritual wellbeing, etc. This is theย destination for those seeking self-improvement and who wish to live WELL. I mean Hello! As soon as I found out about it, I was ALL in; which is precisely why I applied to become an ambassador.
I’ve read recaps of W.E.L.L. Summits past (this is only the 3rd year), and I am so excited to have my creative cup filled, my spiritual cup nurtured, and my inspirational cup ignited.
Who Attends W.E.L.L Summit?
You!
No, but seriously. This event is about empowering you to live your healthiest and most fulfilling life, both personally and professionally. It’s about a 360ยฐ approach to wellness; looking at wellness from a holistic standpoint. You can’t stop at nutrition and fitness, because then only one house will be in order. We all need to look at our relationships, mental health, and our environment (how it exists and how we exist within it) to truly be Well. I’m all about this idea of Wellness… we are so much more than our outsides.
So, if you’re a wellness entrepreneur or professional, come. And if you’re a wellness blogger, come. But probably most importantly, if you’re just a regular schmegular wellness enthusiast who wants to learn and grow within a community of like-minded individuals, please please please come. Join me; I can’t wait to meet you.
