ABOUT SAWC STRUCTURE & GOALS

San Antonio Wellness Collective is a Social Enterprise and a registered business of Bexar County, San Antonio, Texas. We are building a Wellness Business Ecosystem in San Antonio, Texas. This Ecosystem encompasses multiple pieces that come together to make a strong network of professionals, events, resources, and programs. We help Wellness Entrepreneurs, Wellness Business Owners, Social club leaders, Wellness initiatives and projects, Wellness-based non-profits, and farms all connect for this primary purpose: To showcase how Wellness IS Social Impact.

We amplify, highlight, connect, and facilitate collaborations that emphasize how WELLNESS elevates communities and allows for economic growth. Through healthy programs, storefronts, farms, cafes, clinics, shared-spaces for gathering and development, creative spaces, mental health and wellness centers, and so much more.

WELLNESS IS BROAD

In order to make an impact in our city, we have to acknowledge that WELLNESS is BROAD. Wellness is more than finding organic, healthy food options or going to a gym.

Wellness spans across: Physical health, Mental health, Emotional health, Trauma healing, Pregnancy and Birth services, Women's and Men's reproductive/hormonal health support, Death services, Medical and Dental practices, Body movement (such as Dance, Fitness, Running clubs, Yoga, Pilates, etc.), Body-Mind Connection, Rehabilitation, Physical therapy, Behavioral health services, Art therapy (and other Creative therapies including Animal-assisted therapy and nature therapy), Nutrition and diet, Healthy food and beverage, Vitamins and Supplements, Spiritual healing, Energy healing, Lifestyle and Support groups, Parenting resources and spaces, Gathering Centers and Cafes, Wellness themed programs and initiatives from the City, and more.

By collecting all of the Wellness professionals, Companies, Spaces, Events, Resources, and initiatives we can find, we can build a mega-directory of Wellness that connects people to the resources they need.

WE WANT TO DO IT BETTER THAN SOCIAL MEDIA AND AI DO FOR PEOPLE IN SAN ANTONIO

Although businesses grately rely on social media and AI tools to grow their business now a days, it largely keeps them from making real connections that can boost their business. Most business owners are tied to their location or are overwhelmed navigating how to plug into local events. They sign up for vendor events with no idea of the outcome. They have to prioritize which Chamber or local networking group to join, use their time to network sparingly, and then manage social media on their own. Not every business owner has the budget, means, or ability to hire a marketing professional either, so they truly rely on using what little time they have to network or get a table at a local market. It is a very slow-growing process, that can be daunting and even drown a business.

What we are doing is spending the time going "door to door" to learn about each Wellness business in San Antonio that is open to talking with us about their journey. We hear about their stories, their needs, and what they wish they had in order to grow. We then strategically connect them to other SAWC members and create events, plus resources, that can bring members together strategically. We want to match-make, lead members to better opportunities, and make sure when they are marketing their business, it is more intentional. We also want to create SAWC initiatives that bring AWARENESS to their business in a deeper way than some AI flyer or business card could. SAWC is here to tell the stories, the passion, and the WHY that our business owners have. We focus on in-person meetups, Wellness Wednesday gatherings, and fun wellness events curated to bring everyone closer. For both the love of wellness and the strategy of business growth through collaboration.

We hope that SAWC can help Wellness Entrepreneurs grow, Wellness Businesses gain more support, and events become more streamlined. Wellness is broad and events should showcase that to the Community. We also know that WELLNESS is SOCIAL IMPACT. By sharing the impact each professional and company are making, we create a healthier and more connected San Antonio.
