My Story:
 
My journey to Holistica Wellness began with a suitcase full of dreams and a thirst for adventure. Leaving Argentina after high school, I explored Europe and the US, each experience shaping my perspective on health and well-being.
A few years ago, I decided to leave my mom’s house and spread my wings. It started with a trip during my last year of high school, which gave me the confidence to pursue my dreams. I remember my mom saying, "Angie, if you want to go on this trip, work for it. I won’t do it for you." This invaluable lesson from my mom at 16 ignited my determination. I took on various jobs, from teaching English to selling handmade products at markets. After months of hard work, I finally went to Europe—a huge victory that I thoroughly enjoyed!
 
Health and wellness have always been part of me. I vividly recall eating a croissant after a night out and feeling terrible—my stomach swelled up dramatically. An unexpected diagnosis of celiac disease challenged my relationship with food. Instead of feeling defeated, I embraced holistic nutrition and discovered the joy of creating delicious, gluten-free meals – a skill that fuelled my active lifestyle. My passion for health led me to start "Cookies a bordo," selling gluten-free, lactose-free, and refined sugar-free cookie mixes.  No matter where I am, I keep baking and sharing my cookies.
 
While pursuing architecture, my passion for wellness took centre stage. A move to Italy for design studies sparked a yearning for a more dynamic path.
 
After Italy, I went to Aspen where I worked as a ski instructor and in hospitality. My commitment to a gluten-free, dairy-free, and refined sugar-free diet persisted, no matter where I was. Friends often asked how I managed to stay healthy while traveling so much. The truth is, wellness is deeply ingrained in me; it fuels everything I do.
 
Discovering a degree in holistic cooking was perfect for me—remote and aligned with my lifestyle. I started creating new recipes, making it easier to maintain a holistic diet. One of my favourite creations is collagen bars, which I made for their incredible benefits to my hair, nails, and skin. Friends loved them, and soon, I was juggling studies, work, and producing these bars and cookies.
 
Always up for a new adventure, London called, and I eagerly embraced this vibrant city.
 
Holistica Wellness reflects my own journey – a celebration of living authentically, embracing the "wellness devotee" and the "free spirit" within. There's no need for perfection, just the pursuit of a unique path to well-being.
We all have a story. At Holistica Wellness, we celebrate yours. Join me in exploring the multifaceted world of Holistica Wellness, where laughter, self-discovery, and delicious, healthy living go hand-in-hand.
