Nature of Wellness ™️ Podcast
Episode Twenty Six (SPECIAL EDITION)- Elevating Change at the WELCOA Summit
One of the biggest fears we face as a species is change. We have been socialized to believe that change is “bad,” or “scary,” or “hard.” While some changes are unpredictable and require more effort, change is the one true constant in our lives.
It is also important to remember that every good thing you've ever experienced, or accomplished in life was the result of change.
Change is a foundational part of our health and wellness journeys. Helping others make positive, lasting lifestyle changes lies at the very center of the wellness field.
What does it mean to “Elevate Change?”
Mark recently had the opportunity to gather with hundreds of wellness professionals to discuss this concept. He was lucky enough to be able to interview many of the speakers and change makers involved in the event. We are excited to share their wisdom with you.
Welcome to a bonus SPECIAL EDITION of The Nature of Wellness Podcast.
The Wellness Council of America (WELCOA) Summit was held in San Diego, at the end of September. Professionals from all corners of the wellness industry, from around the world were in attendance.
Mark provided a keynote session on “The Nature of Wellness” He was blown away by the response to the session, but also to our mission and this show.
On this compilation episode, Mark sat down with multiple speakers, entertainers, and change-makers who made the WELCOA Summit successful.
Join us as we speak with Human Resources Guru Julie Develin, Musicians Manas Itene and Mike Blankenship, Author and Summit MC Lucas Mack, Co-founders of Meet Your Magic Jana Wilder and Molly Strong, CEO and Speaker Andrew Sykes, Best-Selling Author and Speaker Dr. Daren Martin, and WELCOA CEO Ryan Picarella.
The depth and breadth of these powerful conversations were truly inspiring. They all represented ways to “Elevate Change,” which was the theme of the WELCOA Summit. We covered topics ranging from what it means to “be human,” managing traumatic situations, owning your “first and last name” identity, how music enhances spiritual wellbeing, discovering and embracing your personal magic, why a return to in-person gatherings (such as the summit) are desperately needed to combat loneliness and the future direction of health and wellness.
Mark often gets asked, “Who motivates the motivator?” After listening, you will truly understand the answer to that question, and why each of these amazing humans made the event so special.
