Emerging Wellness Coach Gains Professional Mentorship and Industry Connections Through Healthspan Collective

HealthSpan events have been like nothing else I've ever experienced. Just the caliber of people in the room, the overall energy of everybody in the room, just intelligent and, I mean, genuine, humble, but obviously successful people. And I just really felt like even though I'm just emerging as a coach and an online business owner, I felt like it was just a perfect environment for me to grow personally and professionally. It was just exciting and innovative, and there was just always somebody interesting to talk to. The speakers are so willing to answer your questions, and they're just so passionate. I would say the passion, you know, that I witnessed from everybody was something that really stood out to me. Hi, I'm Jenna Shapiro. I'm a caregiver, and I'm also an emerging wellness coach and a multidisciplinary artist at heart. My husband and I were invited to the Stronger in Twenty Twenty Six event at OsteoStrong Mar Vista. It was our first event. He's actually the tech manager, web designer for HealthSpan, and so that was an amazing opportunity to meet Elias and Tina and just to experience what HealthSpan is all about. I mean, the speakers, the topics of conversation, it just really, like, fed my curiosity and as an emerging wellness coach was just eating it all up. The products, the services, the opportunities to connect and have conversation with other people in the wellness and longevity industry and just-- it was really amazing. So HealthSpan to me is the time that we get to experience truly living well relative to the number of years that we are alive for. It's about being able to live in a way where we feel optimal. We have optimal functioning of our mind, our body, and independence as well. I would say the kind of connections I was seeking was mentorship, really, just to have the ability to be in an association of leaders and pioneers in the wellness and longevity industries, and especially lifestyle medicine. That is the field that really lights me up. And so just to have opportunities for collaboration or just to be in the presence of people who are really killing it, you know, in these industries and to be able to learn from them and so that I can become a leader in this space eventually and just a better coach, more knowledgeable person overall. [chuckles] I highly recommend joining the HealthSpan Collective because no matter where you're at in your journey, whether you're just emerging into these spaces as a new business owner or just a new professional in general, or you are already successful in your field, there's a place for you. It's really just the perfect community no matter what. I just... I couldn't have imagined being in rooms like this even, you know, two years ago. I mean, I was just kind of in the beginning stages of my journey becoming a wellness coach and a certified personal trainer and to be around so many knowledgeable people. There's so many opportunities to network professionally, but just like I said earlier, just to grow personally and to cultivate your confidence
