Our Story
Our Founder, Maria Lopez, grew up with a severe penicillin allergy and as a young girl trying to fit in, she found herself wearing a penicillin allergy medical ID bracelet that made her stand out. She felt different in a bad way, hating having to explain her bracelet to others, and stopped wearing the one thing that held the information that could potentially save her life. As an adult, Maria understands the need to be mindful of health and wellness in a preventative way, without sacrificing style. This is how Well Aware was born.
Maria’s goal is to empower others to feel confidently secure, so they know their health will be safely communicated in any situation, without any stigma attached. Not only are we working towards empowering women to feel confidently healthy in style, but we do so with the support of others also facing adversity. This mission to create a global community that supports each other in living their best lives led to our collaboration with Healing Waters International. With each purchase, Well Aware donates a portion of proceeds to
We’ve created an intersection where fashion meets wellness and can’t wait to see how you customize your #intentionallystylish wellness bracelet!
