After nearly two months of some serious renovations, we are excited to unveil the new and improved Everstrong! As those of you who have been a part of the Everstrong community since our early days know, we created it with the intention of offering the BoominGroup community of entrepreneurs adventures in nature to open the mind, catalyzing personal expansion and valuable breakthroughs.
While we were actively growing Everstrong, one of our mentors and advisors introduced us to a publisher and businessman from Menlo Park, Sloane Citron, who had a similar vision called Boone’s Guide. While Everstrong was focused on serving entrepreneurs with adventures in nature, Boone’s Guide would be open to everyone. Since everyone is passionate about something, Sloane posed the question, why not provide people with a platform through which they can share their passion with others and get paid to do it? We acknowledged the synergy; we had the existing technology and know-how to build the platform, Sloane had access to an expanded network or crowd, the idea to make the adventures on-demand, and the ability to raise funds. So, we decided to join forces to create an Everstrong that was available to all people.
The website (and soon, a mobile app) is a platform that enables people to help people feel happier through experiences. From yoga at a magical, unknown spot, cultural cooking experiences, and photo explorations of unique landscapes and places, to surfing with the local gang, salsa dancing, and nature immersions, Everstrong
offers experiences that bring real happiness.
When more people do more of what makes them happy and when there are more opportunities for people to feel happier, the quality of our lives grows. We know that it’s experiences that bring people lasting happiness, not more possessions. And we understand that a happy experience stays with us for a lifetime. We’ve discovered that people feel a greater sense of “being alive” during experiences and in reflection of them.
Our members are always seeking something new, different and interesting to do, but perhaps have not yet summoned the courage or taken the time to do those things. Everstrong offers our members the opportunity to access new experiences in a convenient and easy way, with someone experienced in doing it and has found genuine happiness from doing so. The outcome is that they may meet someone new or learn something new, but the main motivation is to discover something that can also work for them.
Our Happy Agents are everyday people—engineers, lawyers, entrepreneurs, moms, artists and more—who have found Experiences that bring them genuine happiness. They are passionate about sharing that Experience through Everstrong because they get to do more of what makes them happy with the added benefit of meeting and helping people, all while generating income.
Everstrong exists to increase happiness. So together, we coined the phrase, “Share in the Happy.”
Sometimes, when we let go of attachments to how we think something “should” be, and allow collaborations and partnerships to emerge, it opens up the doors for something even greater than expected.
We invite you to join Everstrong.com!
I抦 impressed, I have to say. Really not often do I encounter a blog that抯 both educative and entertaining, and let me let you know, you’ve hit the nail on the head. Your concept is outstanding; the problem is one thing that not enough persons are talking intelligently about. I’m very completely happy that I stumbled throughout this in my search for something regarding this.
