-- Miami-based developer Diana Ulis, CEO and Founder of Admire Capital, sat down with Amber Berger on The Well Drop Podcast for a wide-ranging conversation about what it truly means to build a home that supports the way people actually live. The episode goes live June 15 and is already generating buzz in both wellness and luxury real estate circles.
Recorded at the Fort Lauderdale Beach sales gallery of The Ritz-Carlton Residences, the conversation centered on the project's signature "Invisible Wellness" philosophy, the idea that the most powerful wellness features in a home are the ones residents never consciously notice. From air and water quality to biophilic design, acoustics, and lighting, Diana Ulis walked listeners through how Admire Capital has approached building not just a luxury condominium, but a restorative environment from the ground up.
Diana and Amber covered the broader wellness real estate market, which the Global Wellness Institute now values at $876 billion and projects to more than double to $1.8 trillion by 2030. Diana Ulis spoke about why she saw this shift coming well before the data caught up, emphasizing why boutique-scale development, like the 83-residence dual-tower project on Fort Lauderdale's Intracoastal waterway, is uniquely positioned to deliver on the promise that larger developments simply can't.
Much of the conversation touched on the personal. Diana explored how her perspective as a mother shaped her lens as a developer and how she began asking herself whether the homes she was building were truly nourishing, not just beautiful. She discussed the importance of engaging a wellness consultant early in the design process and how that collaboration pushed the team to think well beyond the spa, evaluating how every material, system, and spatial decision could quietly support residents' health and nervous systems around the clock.
The episode also explored who is actually buying at The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Fort Lauderdale Beach: entrepreneurs, executives, relocators, and second-home buyers who are placing lifestyle quality and environmental integrity at the top of their list. Diana spoke candidly about the modern luxury buyer, and particularly about women in demanding life phases who are increasingly seeking homes that work for them, not just ones that impress from the outside.
"There was really no one better to have this conversation with than Amber," Diana said. "She is the wellness consultant who worked alongside our team to build this vision, and she coined the phrase 'Invisible Wellness' that has become the foundation of everything we've created at The Ritz-Carlton Residences. She understands this project from the inside out.”
Diana explained that these aren't just principles she applies to development; this is how she endeavors to live in her own life.
“Invisible Wellness shapes the choices I make in my own home, for my own family,” said Diana. “Sitting down with Amber felt like a genuine conversation between two people who share the same belief: that the most powerful thing a home can do is support your life so quietly, you never have to think about it."
Diana Ulis also reflected on how meaningful it was to connect with an audience that is already living these values. "The listeners of this show understand intuitively what we're building toward. Wellness isn't a feature you bolt on. It's a foundation. Sitting down with Amber gave me the chance to articulate that in a way I hope resonates with anyone who has ever walked into a space and just felt the difference."
For Diana Ulis, Admire Capital, and the team behind The Ritz-Carlton Residences Fort Lauderdale Beach, the episode marks another moment in an ongoing effort to elevate the conversation around what luxury residential development can, and should, deliver.
The Well Drop Podcast episode featuring Diana Ulis dropped on June 15 and is available on all major podcast platforms.
