Experiences,
Not Things.
Be Well Passport is a wellness discovery platform built around one idea: the best things in life aren't bought — they're experienced. We make it easier for people to find, try, and return to wellness experiences that change them from the inside out.
Wellness is meant to be experienced.
There are extraordinary wellness experiences happening in cities across the country — studios, practitioners, outdoor trails, recovery spaces, community classes — that most people never find. Not because they aren't looking, but because nobody made it easy to explore.
The Passport gives people a reason to walk through a door they might never have opened on their own.
Be Well Passport isn't a coupon book or a directory. It's a discovery platform built around real-world experiences — and the belief that meaningful wellness doesn't have to mean buying more things. It means doing more, feeling more, connecting more.
Born in Asheville.
Asheville isn't just where we started — it's why Be Well Passport exists. The city has built something rare: a wellness culture that feels alive, independent, and deeply human.

When you explore through the Passport, you're not just discovering an activity. You're walking into a practitioner's studio. Meeting someone who built their business here. Experiencing something created by and for this community.
What wellness looks like
when you actually do it.
Not a screen. Not a subscription box. An experience that leaves you feeling something.

belief.
Built by someone who believes wellness should be experienced.
Travis Richardson has spent years working inside Asheville's wellness community — not from the outside looking in, but building relationships with practitioners, attending events, connecting people, and watching an extraordinary community take shape.
The idea for Be Well Passport came from a simple observation: Asheville already had world-class wellness experiences. But most people — residents and visitors alike — had no easy way to discover them, and no real reason to try something unfamiliar. The Passport is designed to change that.
Be Well Passport is the product of those years of relationship-building, community work, and a genuine belief that wellness experiences have the power to change people. Not just their bodies. All of them.

experiences,
not things.
A massage you had never tried. A cold plunge you thought you'd never do. A breathwork session that shifted your perspective. A trail that reminded you to slow down. A conversation with someone you would never otherwise have met.
The Passport isn't about collecting stamps. It's about collecting the experiences that make you feel more alive — and building a record of the places, people, and practices that contributed to your wellbeing.
Every stamp supports something real.
When you explore through the Passport, you're not just checking off an activity. You're walking through the door of a locally owned studio. Meeting a practitioner who built their career in this community. Putting money and attention back into a small business that makes Asheville's wellness culture what it is.
- Independent wellness businesses that depend on community support to thrive
- Local practitioners who chose Asheville because of its wellness culture
- A community built on real relationships, not algorithms
- The kind of place that stays special because people choose to invest in it
Asheville
is just the
first stop.
We're building city by city — methodically, not in a hurry. Each new city brings the same care and community infrastructure that made Asheville possible.
Exploring for 2027 and beyond. Plans and timing may change.
One Passport.
A growing world
of wellness.
Someday, Be Well Passport should travel with you — letting you discover wellness experiences wherever life takes you. Not just in your home city. Wherever you are curious enough to explore.
Imagine asking: “What can I experience here that might make me feel better, learn something, or discover something new?” — and having a trusted answer waiting.
