A breathwork coach’s solution - There had to be a simpler way. Reflecting on my experience as a client in six-month-plus programs, I knew what people actually wanted: a simple list of tasks, the freedom to choose what works, and a place to connect with others for support—not just from the coach, but from people on a similar path. So I began building an app to support Ann and my other clients on their wellness journeys. Then I thought: why not share this with other coaches too? That's how Plaece was born. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69682d603a47d3195d751e3b/89c9a63e-4be8-40e7-9631-24efed90fe34/unsplash-image-c-lUYtNjqxw.jpg Blog - How can wellness and holistic coaches simplify client programs? A breathwork coach’s solution Our vision is to help reconnect people with their wellbeing by creating technology that enables coaches, practitioners, facilitators, and healers to make a greater impact. But the reality is that many small businesses don't survive their first few years. I imagine the number is even higher in the holistic and wellness field. Many of us begin this work through our own healing journeys and want to share what we've learned. But when we're busy finding clients, learning to market ourselves (I'm still getting used to social media), and handling daily business tasks, building a platform or app feels like something for the future–or financially unattainable (custom apps can start from $50k in Australia). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69682d603a47d3195d751e3b/808f0cad-37e1-4298-9837-fd7bd78a2920/22AFF091-D18E-4FD2-A58A-B07C3411EB59.jpeg Blog - How can wellness and holistic coaches simplify client programs? A breathwork coach’s solution - If I were still working as a breathwork coach, here's exactly how I'd use it: My main call to action—link in bio to turn social media followers into app users. Challenges and toolbox content that’s free to lower the barrier to experiencing my work. Daily, weekly, and monthly paid programs for clients. Evergreen courses and multi-week programs to test what resonates. And a community, because shared space was one of the most powerful healing elements of my own journey. While Plaece began with breathwork, it's designed for anyone running programs, challenges, building communities, or ongoing journeys in the holistic and wellness space. https://www.plaece.io/blog/why-we-built-plaece monthly 0.5 2026-05-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69682d603a47d3195d751e3b/7dc63530-e0f8-4f78-ab11-32cd4c7b9690/Ann+and+Paul+in+Koh+Samui+Hospital Blog -
