Meet Kane Sarhan | CoFounder & Chief Creative Officer of THE WELL

We had the good fortune of connecting with Kane Sarhan and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kane, what’s something about your industry that outsiders are probably unaware of?
One surprising fact is that Americans don’t realize how unwell they are living, and that is because our world is not built around making sure we are well and healthy. Most Americans are dehydrated and 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated, simply because they do not have access to the type of water they want. We are hoping to solve this problem with THE WELL Bay Harbor, creating a community that is all about wellness at your finger tips.

What should our readers know about your business?

Before starting The Well, I was the head of brand of 1 Hotels, which has branded residences. I learned how a home can be reflective of a lifestyle, so my expansion into residences was a natural one. It has allowed me to bring back some of my previous experience with 1 Hotels and reimagine living spaces again. There is nowhere else that we spend more time than at our homes.

I wanted to create something from start to finish that hadn’t been done before and have the ability to build a company the way I wanted to.

THE WELL is disrupting a health care industry that has been designed for sick care rather than health care. The wellness industry has never been bigger, but people have never been sicker, more stressed or less well. THE WELL is your one-stop-shop for wellness. We offer a range of health and wellness services, products, and experiences tailored to you. Integrating both modern medicine and ancient healing practices, our thoughtfully-designed spaces focus on whole-person health, addressing the physical, mental and spiritual aspects of well-being. Led by a team of world-class experts, we believe in preventative care that helps people feel good everyday.”

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Miami is home to some of my favorite places which is why I’m most excited to call Miami home— I myself am moving into THE WELL Bay Harbor Islands! I love to start my mornings off with a green juice then I am enjoying Haulover Beach with my dog. I love to go to Barry’s or Modo Yoga to start off the day. After my favorite workout, I can usually be found grabbing lunch at Mandolin.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
I have been very lucky to have the most fantastic mentors in my life. I am where I am today because of the people who invested in me and helped to grow as a young person. I would say the most impactful would be Nihal Mehta and Reshma Saujani. I worked for both of them early on in my career as their apprentice, and they truly changed my perspective on business and on who and what I could be. As well, my CoFounder, Sarrah Hallock told me, ‘Get the right people in the right seat on the bus’ and it is so true. The key to success is always to have the right team doing the right jobs. Finally, one of my early mentors was Barry Sternlicht of Starwood Capital Group, who has always been such a guiding light and someone I can go to whenever I need counsel.
