#163 - Expanding the Lens on Well-Being for New Opportunities

Retailers, brands, and services can support consumers around the world on their physical, mental, and social health journeys. Sally Lyons Wyatt, Circana’s global EVP and chief advisor, Consumer Goods & Foodservice Insights, shares well-being research highlights from industries as diverse as books, food, beauty, apparel, consumer tech, pet, toys, and more. Consumers’ pursuit of well-being is strong, and the opportunities to lean in and support them are many. You might just learn how to support your own well-being goals.  Highlights:  Not one of the three pillars of well-being — physical, mental, and social — exists in a silo. Brands, retailers, and services should consider opportunities outside their own lane to promote their offerings, including cross-merchandising opportunities with complementary products.  Well-being is a global concern. While regional differences exist, there are many universal views, including the benefits of physical fitness, food as medicine, mental health awareness, and the value of community engagement.
