Our Bubble

Our Bubble

We truly believe in letting life unfold organically, we enjoy seeing the beautiful mess of how the chips fall into place and wholeheartedly believe that if you manifest, the universe gives you what you need—not necessarily what you ask for—but what you need to grow or get to where you need to be. That being said, we are human, and often feel overwhelmed trying to create and implement the vision we have for The Wellground. We are learning, though, that the best thing we can do, is to take a breath, step back, and really try to observe it all—this “pause” really is helping us in all areas of our life, and is enabling us to see what’s working, what’s not working and what needs to be done. This pause, is also teaching us, that when we jump into things impulsively and make quick decisions without listening to our instincts; we often make mistakes. And so, we have both, independently and together, been working on slowing it down, letting it happen and watching it unfold.

Since inception, The Wellground has been a word of mouth experience, one person comes tells a friend and so on. Our goal was to create a place for women to come and feel happy, relaxed, hang out, shop, have a kombucha (on us), join us for a workout, and really just feel good and welcome. We have gotten such amazing feedback from all of you, that you’re loving our vibe, and enjoying the experience so much so that you want to sit and stay awhile. Whether it be chatting with other customers, getting a facial, or taking a barre class. We dreamed of creating a space that we wanted to be at and absolutely love seeing how our vision has become a reality.

We (along with our husbands, Chris + J), joke around that we live in a “Bubble“ —not the kind of bubble where we don’t feel, but the kind where we don’t let the little things get to us. Although we are different in many ways, we share a critical commonality—we are eternal optimists, we don’t let things like daily parking tickets, people saying no to us, or (for better or for worse) basic rules, get us down. We are both pretty good at keeping our eyes on the horizon, pushing forward and not losing sight of what matters most to both of us.  We really have so much fun, we laugh A LOT—most often at ourselves, as we get on the subway in the wrong direction, can’t find our phones (usually when they’re in our hand), and race to catch the train as it’s about it to leave, because we HAD to get our favorite salad at The Little Beet. We talk about everything and nothing on a daily basis.  And, of course, we create, think, observe, watch, brainstorm, and most importantly, listen—to criticisms and complements—because at the end of the day, we both love the process, we love the learning and we love the ride. Perhaps that’s our bubble—what we mean is, we enjoy the journey so much, it’s become our bubble??? The truth is, we don’t know the answer, and that’s ok, because, we do know, that creating The Wellground continues to be one of the most amazing and fulfilling experiences for us, and we will work everyday to keep learning and making it better.

We are so incredibly grateful and thankful to all of you, for your support, excitement and love. There is so much more to come, and we believe that together we will create a new “retail experience” that encompasses and fulfills the whole person—from the inside out. Our goal continues to be, to create a place, that nourishes the soul, the spirit, the skin, the body and leaves you feeling (and looking) a bit more stylish than you came.

As we approach Thanksgiving, we reflect on all that we are thankful for this year.  We are so fortunate to have met the most amazing group of women. Meeting and knowing all of you, has been our greatest gift. Lanie and I have said before that we are by nature, seekers, and you ladies, inspire us to keep seeking and searching for the best in wellness, skincare, fitness and fashion. So today, we thank YOU, for this gift, to be able to share all that we love with all of you, has filled our souls and brought us fulfillment beyond our wildest dreams.
