It’s easy to fall into the hustle culture trap and to never face our traumas, specially as an immigrant. Gabi and Ale, co-founders of Treat Yourself and Heal (TYSAYH) seek to change all that. TYSAH’s mission is to heal the world with self care, community, and overcoming while partnering with underrepresented solo-preneurs and empowering causes.

Gabriela Mira Brown is a mental health advocate and co-founder of TYSAH. Her first-hand experiences have shaped her career and passion for participating in programs that create access to resources for under-invited communities.

Alejandra Mejia is co-founder of TYSAH and has dedicated her career to supporting small businesses and nonprofits in the arts, education, literacy, trauma due to violence, and migration through the lens of strategic communications and marketing.
