Hi, I’m Marissa, and I’m so excited to welcome you to the very first episode of my YouTube podcast, Wellness from Scratch!
In this heartfelt and honest introduction, I’ll be sharing my personal journey toward better wellbeing—where I started, where I am now, and why I’m inviting you to come along for the ride. From growing up near Detroit and not knowing what self-care or mental health even meant, to moving halfway across the world and discovering the importance of boundaries, balance, and joy, this journey has been life-changing—and it’s far from over.
This podcast is about transformation in real time. You’ll see me learn, grow, and stumble as I figure out what it truly means to live a healthier, more fulfilled life. If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start, you’re in the right place. Together, we’ll explore practical ways to improve our mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing—one small step at a time.
I’ll also be sharing why I’m starting this channel, what you can expect in future episodes, and how we can build a community of support and inspiration along the way.
