Wellness Needs a Reality Check.

From “MedBeds” to “DNA activations” and “raw water,” the wellness world is facing a credibility crisis.

Misinformation dressed up as mindfulness is spreading faster than ever — and it’s not just weird, it’s dangerous. When wellness detaches from science, people get hurt, and trust in real wellness erodes.

At WISe Wellness Guild, we’re calling it what it is — fake wellness.
And we’re doubling down on what works: evidence, community, and accessibility.

Every week, we track what’s rising across fitness, food, leadership, health, and innovation — and this week, wellness showed its full range: from boardrooms building clinics to trainers rethinking their purpose to regulators stepping in on celebrity wellness fads.

Stevi Gable Carr, Founder of WISe Wellness Guild, breaks down why this legislative failure reveals deeper systemic gaps—and what forward-thinking companies, wellness brands, and employers can do to lead the charge.
