“Holistic professionals need a place they can go to where they can connect with like-minded entrepreneurs – a community that shares the same values.”said chapter president & founder Vanessa Halloum. ”We want to bring the holistic community together so we can help holistic professionals grow their business while making an impact and helping people live healthier and happier lives.”

The new chamber already has a roster of 30-plus members so is growing quickly even before the grand opening celebration with featured speaker Susie Q from Natural Awakenings who will be sharing her inspirational story of awakening to her life’s purpose through joy, gratitude and the power of intention.

“There’s a huge movement happening of people searching for a more holistic approach to living and the holistic professionals that are at the forefront of this movement have not been given the proper attention and support that they deserve…until now,” added Halloum a holistic marketing coach. “That’s why I decided to launch the Fort Lauderdale Holistic Chamber of Commerce.”
