Meet Aranzasú
Pronounced [Ah-Rhan-Sa-Sue]
Aranzasú is the founder of Santa Monica Soul. She helps women heal their relationship with their mind and body through food, movement, and self-care rituals 💕 .
While caring for her diabetic grandmother, Aranzasú saw the first-hand crippling effects of diabetes which propelled her to deepen her whole wellness, nutrition and fitness trainings and inspired her to start Santa Monica Soul.
This experience inspired her life’s purpose, which is helping as many people as possible feel great in their mind, body, and spirit.
Aranzasú received full-scholarships with honors to attend both Harvard University and USC. After graduating, Aranzasú didn’t choose an ordinary path. Instead, she lived an Ashram to learn about meditation and a plant-based lifestyle. She embarked on a solo journey spanning over 10 countries which exposed her to a wide range of health modalities, conventional and unconventional teachers and world views from different cultures.
Aranzasú was the Managing Director of the Harvard Journal of Hispanic Policy, and worked at Wall Street (S&P-500), spearheaded the first Wellbeing Score Card at the City of Santa Monica, and worked at RAND Corp. Leading a holistic lifestyle, has allowed Aranzasú to thrive in high-level life and career challenges, as well as cope with normal stress and anxiety.
Aranzasú lives in between Santa Monica, CA and the mountains of Veracruz, Mexico.
