Plentiful Launches as Coaching Marketplace
A new platform allows people to discover and book virtual and in-person experiences
Global wellness marketplace Plentiful has officially launched, where individuals can discover professional coaches specializing in life, career, nutrition, fitness, relationships, and parenting.
The launch of the Plentiful comes at a time when people begin mulling New Year’s Resolutions and as the health and wellness coaching market is expected to reach $3.83 billion.
“After I experienced a series of curveballs, I attended a retreat that transformed my perspective,” Plentiful founder Heinz Waelchli said. “I realized I had been chasing the wrong things and overlooking what was most important to me. I wanted to help others access the same type of transformation I had, which inspired me to build Plentiful.”
Plentiful offers users a range of virtual and in-person experiences to explore, including one-on-one coaching, personalized workshops, e-books, and retreats.
In the nutrition category, individuals can find experiences such as a three-month mind and body reset program for personalized health coaching, symptom analysis and custom meal plans or a virtual warm winter drink-making workshop. In fitness, experiences include ‘movement as medicine’ classes, a mind-body spiritual fitness workout and more.
The platform also provides wellness and expert practitioners the opportunity to create profiles on Plentiful, enhancing their visibility and helping them attract new clients. Plentiful handles appointments, notifies practitioners of bookings, and initiates payments through Stripe.
“We believe that everyone deserves to live their fullest life,” Waelchli continued. “You don’t need to be a CEO or professional athlete to access a world-class coach. Everyone feels stuck sometimes, and we’ve built an incredible community of practitioners to help people overcome that and unlock the best version of themselves.”
