The Story Behind CLOE

Wellness Management | Yoga Practitioner | Holistic Health Coach

Originally from Costa Rica, my curiosity about yoga, nutrition, and holistic well-being began in my early twenties. When I went plant-based in 2007, I knew why I wanted to change, but not how to nourish my body well. So I started studying, and that curiosity never stopped.

Living in New York and Berlin for seven years in each city exposed me to different cultures, perspectives, and ways of living, further shaping my approach to well-being. Today, I am based in Hong Kong, continuing to explore and learn.

The same curiosity that led me to nutrition deepened through movement, and later through hormones and supplementation. Every question led me further into understanding how the body works. Over the years, I became more knowledgeable about my own health and realized that wellness isn’t a single topic. It’s a whole world waiting to be discovered.

CLOE, Conscious Living On Earth, grew out of that journey. It’s where I share what I’ve studied and explored in real life, what has worked and what hasn’t, so you don’t have to start from zero as I did.

Working in hospitality, I designed holistic wellness programs, led multidisciplinary teams, and curated immersive experiences, from wellness festivals to creative program development.

Guided by continuous learning, I explore where ancient wisdom meets modern science. To me, well-being isn’t a destination. It’s an evolving journey of discovery, awareness, and growth.

A Journey Rooted in Compassion

My relationship with plant-based eating began in 2007, when I adopted a plant-based diet, and evolved into a fully vegan diet in 2017.

As I became more aware of animal agriculture and its impact on living beings, I began to see food choices through a broader ethical lens. Compassion for animals became an important part of how I approach nourishment and consumption.

I believe animals are here with us, not for us.

Beyond its ethical dimension, plant-based nutrition has become an important area of interest for me. I am particularly interested in the nutritional science behind plant foods, their role in supporting human health, and how dietary choices influence our overall well-being.

Yoga has been an essential part of my personal and professional journey. Through years of practice, formal training, and time spent in India, I’ve developed a deeper appreciation for its philosophy and traditions.

Beyond physical movement, yoga has taught me the value of discipline, patience, and presence—principles that continue to influence how I approach both life and my work.
