Rachel Branson

Rachel Branson is the Founder of Haywood Media and Editor-in-Chief of Wellbeing Magazine and Roam, with more than twenty years’ experience exploring health, wellbeing and the changing global wellness landscape.

Her work takes her around the world in search of places that are redefining what it means to travel well, from pioneering wellness hotels and restorative retreats to destination spas, thermal bathing cultures and longevity-focused escapes. Each year, she spends several months travelling, reviewing and experiencing destinations first-hand, with a particular interest in traditional healing, preventative health, nature-based wellbeing and emerging wellness innovation.

Through Roam, Rachel explores the powerful relationship between place and wellbeing: how our surroundings influence the way we feel, why certain destinations help us reconnect and restore, and how hotels, retreats and regions are creating more meaningful ways to travel.
