Leo Tonkin, wellness innovator and CEO of SALT Chamber, has introduced a new video podcast, "Distinctly Well," providing insightful dialogue to explore the meaning of being well. Tonkin dives into the intricacies of wellness, exploring topics such as leading well, aging well, spa-ing well and corporate, travel and real estate wellness. Each episode features insightful interviews with a diverse range of guests who possess knowledge and wisdom in all things well-being. Through these in-depth conversations, Tonkin aims to uncover the what, how, and why of living and being well in various facets of life.
Tonkin combines his background in leadership and strategy with more than a decade’s experience in the wellness industry to distinguish the transformative trends influencing healthy longevity. Leo shares insights from collaborations with leading experts as board chair of the Salt Therapy Association and chair of the Global Wellness Institute’s Respiratory Wellness Initiative. Distinctly Well explores and deepens our understanding of the latest trends and innovations that add years to life and life to years. His experience as a recent cancer survivor brings a unique perspective and deep passion to his latest endeavor.
Tonkin said, “Often when I hear or read something, I wonder ‘Is that really true?’ That desire to dig deeper and get to the bottom of something is how I got into salt therapy, also known as halotherapy, 12 years ago, and compelled me to launch the Distinctly Well Podcast. Throughout the years I have partnered and learned from so many other thought leaders in all areas of wellness, that I want others to be able to have a forum where they can get the distinctions about certain areas of wellness that make a difference in the quality and longevity of our lives. When we become more informed, we make better choices.”
The first episode of the podcast featured Michael Tompkins, managing director at Hutchinson Consulting. Tompkins said he enjoyed the discussion and recommends the podcast to spa and wellness professionals.
“It was great having a lively peer-to-peer conversation with Leo as his first guest on Distinctly Well,” said Michael Tompkins. “Leo is so passionate about innovation in wellness, and uncovering myths and misconceptions. Spa and wellness professionals can greatly benefit from listening to this podcast, as well as any individuals wanting insider information to age well.”
