Explanation

Who

The inspiration for the topic was centered around the research and understanding of Generation Y, otherwise known as Millennials They’re considerably the last known generation to experience life before a dramatic social shift into the digital world. They set the tone for young adults in today’s version of society. Since the start of the digital era, as connected as people are through social media means, there is a disconnect between the community and the individual Since Millennials were the last to experience pre-digital life, they kept the sense of community intact within the workplace through collaboration work, believing in the importance of engagement. The recent COVID-19 pandemic derailed any sense of community and forced individuals into isolation, amplifying this disconnect and caused a decline in mental health for young adults. The need for social connection and mental health awareness is crucial It is essential to understand the individual’s role in society and to focus on the importance of combining education, wellness, and the essence of community back into today’s fast-paced digital world.

Holistic health focuses on all elements of the individual’s mind, body, and spirit and treats them to elevate the collective whole.

The creation of a co-working space will be a safe environment that allows young adults the chance to bring back the spirit of networking, collaboration, and learning The integration of wellness through the focus of holistic health will inspire confidence, motivation, change, and growth in the individual, thus amplifying positive energy and improvement in not only the co-working community itself but prepare them for any challenge the outside community may expose Incorporating these holistic values into the workspace and understanding the significance of each element will connect things back to the true essence of community and help with young adults’ desire to shape their futures
