Meet the Founder: Yesenia Garcia, Feelz
Feelz Cofounder Yesenia Garcia blends her heritage, passion for natural remedies, and entrepreneurial drive to redefine wellness through innovative plant-based gummies
Yesenia Garcia, cofounder of the holistic wellness startup Feelz, is a lifelong believer in the benefits of plant-based medicine for holistic health. “Growing up, I was surrounded by cosimientos—traditional home remedies my mother would prepare for every ailment,” she recalls.
Her knowledge and passion for natural treatments brought her to the medical cannabis space while her entrepreneurial spirit taught her to thrive in professional situations where she could build businesses from the ground up. After a while, she was ready to bring a wellness product of her own to market. “It was a now-or-never type of feeling,” she says of the decision.
Feelz offers a selection of gummies designed to boost moods, improve sleep, or enhance mental clarity. The gummies are made from natural ingredients like kanna, functional mushrooms, botanicals, and fruits.
