Welcome to Your Holistic Networking & Business Support Group
We are wellness practitioners and vendors in the Kansas City area, passionate about whole-person health.
While growing our individual businesses is important, we also have a heart for making a difference in people’s lives.
We believe all wellness practitioners and vendors – including you – have an important role to play in the well-being of our community. That’s why we come together to learn how each of our different services can better help people discover the best version of themselves.
We use the framework called the Quadrants of Well-Being to keep the wellness language easy and consistent for our community.
Our group is diverse – made up of medical doctors, chiropractors, bodyworkers, acupuncturists, aromatherapists, personal chefs, counselors, physical therapists and trainers, yoga teachers, infrared sauna owners, local cafe owners, professional organizers, Feng Shui practitioners, business coaches, and many other different business support services including copywriting, image branding, website support, social media strategists, and brand messaging.
While we all come from many different walks of life and years served in our industries, we help people see that all it takes to get moving in the right direction is taking the next step in front of them.
Membership Benefits
Convenience is a deal-breaker for many people, which is why we established several small groups of wellness practitioners and vendors across the Kansas City area.
Additionally, we have a virtual meeting option every month to make it even easier to attend a meeting – and connect to members and guests throughout the whole area in one convenient place!
- Cass County – Second Friday (8:00am-9:00am)
- Leawood – Third Wednesdays (8:00am – 9:00am)
- Lee’s Summit – Fourth Wednesdays (9:00am – 10:00am)
- North KC – Fourth Tuesdays (6:00pm – 7:00pm)
- Shawnee – Second Wednesdays (8:00am – 9:15am)
- South OP – Second Thursdays (12:00pm – 1:00pm)
- Virtual Group – First Tuesdays (12:00pm – 1:00pm CDT)
We understand feeling supported is a human need, especially as business owners. It’s one of the many reasons this group was founded. Our members have more than a vision – they know this is their life purpose, to better our community and the way we take care of ourselves and each other.
Monthly meetings are focused on building relationships and in addition to speaking about who we are and what we do, include sharing how we’re handling today’s challenges, giving business tips, and many other memorable moments that ultimately build lifetime relationships with each other. These relationships are what not only build your trusted referral network, but also build your spirit, mind, and body so you can continue giving to your business with a full cup.
Connect
Making a connection with others is a foundational need for success. Beyond networking, we believe you need authentic relationships in your life. It starts by showing up at meetings.
Annual members enjoy unlimited monthly meetings at onsite locations plus the virtual monthly citywide:

Support
A support system is about more than just sharing the hard stuff. In fact, what we love most about it is celebrating each other’s successes. We are made to lift each other up, not just cheering you on from the sidelines, but also walking the path together.
Engage in conversations at members, in the 1:1s, or on the Wellness Consortium Facebook page; share business offers for other members, find accountability partners, share resources, write each other reviews, and show up at each other’s events.
Our wellness practitioners and vendors rave this is one of the best communities they have ever belonged. Why? Each small group across the Kansas City area makes it a place that feels “soul to soul” rather than “role to role”. Wellness practitioners and vendors feel that sense of community during their gatherings, and it fuels each of them to continue growing personally and professionally.

Authentically acknowledge and celebrate members in-person and on social media.
