Wellness Guide Jobs

What is Sage + Sound?

We are on a mission to create a simplified path for everyone to explore wellness in a way that meets their unique physical, mental, and spiritual needs. Opening in Fall 2022 on the Upper East Side of New York City, Sage + Sound is a wellness destination that offers a variety of curated programming, products and self-care services aimed to elevate one’s well-being by enabling individuals to explore and simplify their own self-care routine while engaging with others who have the same goal.

Why work at Sage + Sound?

We come to work every day because we enjoy working with each other, and we exemplify our core values in everything we do. These are our guiding principles that inform both why we work and how we work as a team. We believe:

• In assuming positive intent of others.
• That each of us is inherently whole and capable of greatness.
• That every individual’s contribution is equally important.
• In a culture of kindness and respect.
• That wellness comes first for our team, our partners, and our customers.
• That authenticity should be celebrated.
