Hi, this is Hannah calling from the Hudson Valley of New York.
I'm a 35-year-old psychotherapist, so I think of wellness a lot.
I also think wellness is so much more than just going to a yoga class and drinking electrolytes.
I think it's a lot deeper.
It's spiritual.
And it's something that we all need to be thinking about on the regular.
I've seen that word attached to absolutely everything.
My working definition is wellness is a luxury good.
And it's the packaging of our health and our beauty into a consumable product.
Oh, you mean pooping?
And that's where it gets into, why do people want it?
Because it's a luxury product.
Why do people want a Prada handbag?
And I think wellness is kind of following that trajectory.
Because we have a really messed up healthcare system in this country, but healthcare to the very wealthy is excellent, probably the best it's ever been anywhere in the world.
Again, wellness is a luxury.
Steward executives had slowly taken money out of the system and that patient care had suffered.
We found 15 patients died and thousands more were put at risk.
Right now, it's really being marketed to everyone.
It's kind of like the sort of Devil Wears Prada blue sweater, right?
