Meet Patricia, Your Wellness Guide

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.

Why My Approach Matters

Cultural roots, science-based training, and lived healing experiences shape every personalized wellness plan.

Lived Experience With Healing

Celiac, food allergies, and years on the Standard American Diet inform my compassionate guidance.

Cultural Roots Firmly Integrated

Mexican heritage, curandero visits, and Abuelita's remedies guide how I understand the body's stories.

Artisan Wellness Products Crafted

I handcraft tallow balms, herbal blends, and essential oil combinations for everyday self-care rituals.

Patricia's Journey And Philosophy

My story begins as a little girl who left Mexico and discovered that food in this country felt very different from my mother's and Abuelita's warm, handmade cooking. Years of the Standard American Diet and hidden food allergies led to stomach pain, a Celiac diagnosis - meaning I could no longer eat gluten - and a deep desire to understand how body, mind, spirit, and cultural roots are connected.

Guiding Your Wellness Path

My work began with my own struggles as a Mexican immigrant, and it continues as a promise to guide you with the same care I once needed. I listen closely, honor your culture and family recipes, and design practical, realistic steps for busy women balancing work and family, so you feel lighter, clearer, and more at home in your body, mind, and spirit.
