Welcome to The Fast. In this first season of We Care Spa’s podcast and wellness series, we invite nine of our favorite thought-leaders and innovators to share their own joy of healthy living.
Hosted by Chairman of the Board at ISPA, Patrick Huey, conversations explore new beginnings, ancient fundamentals, the realities of starting a business, the power of forgiveness, microbiomes, why babies like to dance, and more. In every episode we see the moments of clarity when a person throws what no longer serves a purpose into the fire, and how that choice moves them forward.
With over 17 years of experience in the global luxury hospitality and wellness industries, Patrick Huey has built a dynamic career as an international leader within this elite field.
Patrick’s expertise and his love of conversation lend naturally to his position this season on The Fast. He says “What I was most excited to see was how such different guests all responded to these ‘ah-hah’ moments. I love to hear the energy in their voice when they come to their own understanding of what wellness means.”
David Rossi learned a definition of happiness growing up in the wealth and golden handcuffs of Silicon Valley. Was what he learned a definition that provided true stability, sustainability, and everlasting internal happiness? No.
David explored all realms of possibilities towards finding true everlasting happiness. His goal to apply these lessons to his life. As he engrossed himself in a multitude of self-help books, philosophers and spiritual teachers. He found wisdom, consciousness and answers.
It started with an ingredient label. Amra Hajdarevic was pregnant and expecting a daughter. Desperate to provide her newborn with the opportunity to live free of environmental toxins and the chemicals in everyday products, Amra began researching and studying everything she could.
Today, Amra’s toothpaste formula is just one of a dozen products in the Terra & Co. lineup, promising (and delivering) holistic oral care that combines Ayurvedic medicine with the highest dental standards.
When Jena Covello was diagnosed with endometriosis and adenomyosis at age 23, she set out on a path that would dramatically change the course of her life.

Agent Nateur is the product of Jena’s mission to understand the root of her health issues, find healing, and share her learnings with others.
