eY is a place for conversations focused on personal growth and our collective wellbeing
personal and global needs of empowerment
We’re building a prosocial experience where you invite others to help you accomplish what’s meaningful in life, together with friends. From running a marathon to being a better parent, eY enables you to reimagine your potential, whatever that may look like. One wrap at a time. Invite friends. Have conversations. Grow together.
By focusing on the individual and mobilizing the people in their lives, together with business and healthcare models, such as social prescribing and community referral, we can restructure preventative approaches to care. This will translate into better overall health and have meaningful impacts within societies around the world.
We cannot simply treat "symptoms". To enable empowerment, we must think in a more holistic perspective.
You're here
Even though it starts with you, we all need support. The framework of a “wrap” will give you the support you need while on your way to becoming a runner, a better parent, or a loved CEO.
So are your friends
Without friends and relationships life doesn’t make much sense. Start building your team of support with them.
What completes you
Driving forces of change could come with a coach but it can sometimes be as simple as a pair of new running shoes.

Problem or opportunity
If one cause is to blame, it's "bad habits"
Noncommunicable diseases now make up 7 of the world’s top 10 causes of death, according to WHO’s 2019 Global Health Estimates. This is an increase from 4 of the 10 leading causes in 2000.
The WHO further highlights the need for an intensified global focus on preventing and treating NCDs, many of which are related to poor quality eating patterns and physical inactivity. These include cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, high blood pressure, cancer and diabetes.
Harvard Health states that, “These preventable conditions not only compromise quality of life, they add to rising health care costs—75% of our health care dollars (USA) are devoted to treat these diseases.”
Simply put, our lifestyle is killing us. All too often the focus of these rising chronic conditions is centred around the rising costs of treating these diseases rather than the potential economic and societal benefits of preventing them.
