Today we’d like to introduce you to Bruce Platt.
Hi Bruce, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I came to energy healing in an unconventional way. I didn’t grow up planning to become a healer, and I didn’t seek out a spiritual career. This path found me.
About two years ago, I was at a turning point in my life. Everything I had built for decades—career, identity, stability—fell apart. I had spent over 25 years in the furniture and design industry and had experienced success, financial comfort, and a fast-paced lifestyle. On the surface, it looked like I had everything figured out. Internally, I was struggling.
When everything collapsed, I was forced into stillness for the first time in my life. There were no distractions left. No titles, no safety nets, no familiar structures. That breakdown became the doorway to something I never expected: a spiritual awakening.
In that vulnerable space, I began asking deeper questions—about purpose, meaning, and who I truly was beneath all the roles I had played. I started seeking guidance, not from external success metrics, but from within. Slowly, I became aware that I could feel energy in my hands and sense what people were carrying emotionally, mentally, and physically. What began as curiosity became undeniable. People would leave sessions feeling lighter, calmer, and more aligned.
I didn’t “decide” to become a healer. I listened to what was unfolding.
Over time, I realized that every hardship I had experienced was shaping me for this work. Losing what I once thought defined me allowed me to meet myself for the first time as I truly am. It taught me humility, compassion, and deep empathy for others who are suffering quietly.
Today, I work as an energy healer and co-founder of Platform Wellness in Miami Beach, where we create a safe, grounded space for people to explore holistic healing—energy work, meditation, sound healing, and other integrative practices. My intention is simple: to help people feel less alone in their struggles and to remind them that healing is possible.
I don’t see healing as replacing traditional medicine, but as working alongside it. We are multidimensional beings—mind, body, and spirit—and true healing happens when we honor all three.
If there’s one message I hope readers take away, it’s this: You don’t have to have it all figured out. You don’t have to be “spiritual” or perfect. You just have to be willing to listen to yourself and ask for support. Sometimes the most painful chapters of our lives are actually invitations into our truest purpose.
I wouldn’t trade this path for anything. Helping others reconnect to themselves and find peace, clarity, and hope is the greatest wealth I’ve ever known.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Resilience was the only way.! The obstacles were many. The will to keep moving forward and trust that the universe would reward that!
We’ve been impressed with Platform Wellness , but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Platform Wellness is a holistic wellness center in Miami Beach that I co-founded with my partner, interior designer and holistic visionary Sogol Afsharjavan. We created Platform Wellness as a sanctuary for people seeking deeper healing, balance, and reconnection—mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
We specialize in energy healing, Reiki, sound healing, guided meditation, mindfulness experiences, and curated wellness events. Our approach is intuitive, heart-centered, and integrative, supporting clients through life transitions, stress, emotional healing, and personal awakening.
What sets Platform Wellness apart is the authenticity behind the work. Our practices are rooted in lived experience, personal transformation, and a genuine calling to serve. We focus on meeting each person where they are, offering individualized care rather than one-size-fits-all solutions.
I’m most proud of the safe, grounded community we’ve built—one where people feel seen, supported, and empowered to explore their own healing journey in a way that feels accessible and real.
Let’s talk about our city – what do you love? What do you not love?
The city feels raw, abundant, and alive, with a rich international energy. It still feels like one of the best-kept secrets, and I love watching Miami evolve into a true hub for health, wellness, and conscious living.
What I like least is that as certain movements gain popularity, they can sometimes lose their authenticity. When trends overshadow integrity, the deeper purpose can get diluted. I’m always drawn to spaces and people who lead with substance, intention, and genuine heart.
