Our Story
My journey through pain, doubt, and natural healing led me to create Hello Wellness — a brand built from love, intention, and care.
I didn’t start Hello Wellness because I wanted to be a business owner.
In fact, I resisted it — for years.
I pushed the idea aside, unsure if I was ready — or even if it was meant for me.
But the need to help, to heal, and to serve others kept pulling me back.
Eventually, I stopped resisting and stepped into what had been mine all along.
I started Hello Wellness because I was in pain — unseen, unheard, and searching for healing.
For years, I battled with endometriosis, silently enduring extreme pain that doctors dismissed.
I began to doubt myself. I started questioning my body, my symptoms, and my voice — because when no one takes you seriously, you start to shrink.

I had studied health through a conventional lens. I understood the clinical side of medicine.
I believed in it — until it no longer believed in me.
That’s when everything changed.
I stopped waiting for answers from the outside — and turned inward.
I began exploring natural medicine, herbs, acupuncture, and holistic healing.
Not just to treat symptoms — but to truly understand my body.
That journey didn’t just help me reclaim my health.
It helped me reclaim my power.

Around the same time, I struggled with dry, sensitive skin —
and couldn’t find clean, effective products that actually helped.
So I started making my own. First for myself, then for others.
But the moment that truly changed everything was watching my mother suffer.
She was battling severe osteoarthritis, and nothing was working.
I saw her in pain every day — aching, fatigued, and frustrated by how little relief she could find.
It was heartbreaking to feel so helpless, especially knowing how strong she’d always been.
I realized then that healing had to be reimagined — it had to be personal, gentle, and rooted in care.
So I created a pain relief oil just for her — infused with herbs, intention, and deep care.
That product changed her day-to-day life — and it reignited my purpose.
