The Heart Behind the Expo:
How this came to life — and why it matters
Lorin Starr and Bruce Starr have both participated in a wide range of expos over the years. Through their combined experience, they developed a vision for what this kind of event could offer a community like ours. They believe the time is right for a large-scale health and wellness expo in North Palm Beach County.
Step into a day that brings together passionate practitioners, wellness vendors, and curious attendees for a shared experience of learning, inspiration and growth. Whether you are here to discover new tools, connect with others, explore healing practices, or simply take time for yourself, this event offers space to engage, reflect, and be part of something impactful.
Lorin has worked dozens of health expos as a practitioner. Bruce hosted the first major expo in Broward County at the Fort Lauderdale Convention Center in 1994. They've seen the impact these gatherings can have — not just on businesses, but on people’s lives.
They know people are seeking something real — not just products or programs, but spaces that feel safe, uplifting, and alive with possibility. That’s what they’ve set out to create.
There are always new ideas, technologies, and approaches to wellness emerging — alongside tried-and-true methods that might be new to you. They envisioned a space where people could spend the day learning, exploring, connecting in ways that support our wellbeing — and walking away feeling reconnected.
A place for:
People just beginning to explore holistic health
People looking for their next breakthrough
People who want to make new friends
People drawn to the mysteries of the universe and science
People who believe growth can be joyful and playful

Bringing It Home
North Palm Beach County has a strong and growing wellness presence — full of local businesses, practitioners, and people doing meaningful work. But many haven’t had the chance to really discover all that’s happening right here in their own backyard.
North Palm Beach County has a strong and growing wellness presence — full of local businesses, practitioners, and people doing meaningful work. But many haven’t had the chance to really discover all that’s happening right here in their own backyard.
We created this event to shine a light on what’s already here — and to welcome a few national treasures into the mix. It’s the kind of day that might just introduce you to something (or someone) you didn’t know you were looking for — and leave you feeling more connected to your community than when you arrived.
