Steele Wellness and Life in El Monte, California is guided by me, Patricia Steele, a Mexican-born wellness coach who understands what it feels like when your body seems to fight against the food on your plate. Growing up between my family's traditional recipes and the Standard American Diet, I developed food allergies and, in 2008, received a Celiac diagnosis.
I carry a BS in Holistic Health & Wellness, a BS in Legal Studies, 13 years as a paralegal, and certifications as an ISSA Certified Personal Trainer, Spin Instructor, and Essential Oil Specialist. My lifelong use of herbs, Abuelita's remedies, and visits to the curandero now blends with modern training to support body, mind, and spirit in a grounded, culturally aware way.
Cultural roots, science-based training, and lived healing experiences shape every personalized wellness plan.
Celiac, food allergies, and years on the Standard American Diet inform my compassionate guidance.
Mexican heritage, curandero visits, and Abuelita's remedies guide how I understand the body's stories.
I handcraft tallow balms, herbal blends, and essential oil combinations for everyday self-care rituals.
