ABOUT
ROMY
LAMARCHE

Romy LaMarche is a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion practitioner, Self-Care & Wellness advocate, and founder of Self-Care Hub USA LLC. Her work has influenced the community (her tribe) to see self-care as an essential practice to address the whole self. She started her journey of self-care soon after starting her work in
diversity, equity, and inclusion - or she likes to call it, antiracism work - for a large environmental non-profit in San Francisco. She has worked for the organization for the past ten years and has a unique perspective on the intersectionality of social justice, self-care & wellness, and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).
Self-Care Hub USA LLC was born out of the need for a welcoming and encompassing space to heal. It started when she first read Audre Lorde’s quote on self-care which says, “Caring for myself is not self-indulgence. It is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.” That quote resonated deeply with her and has both guided and amplified her journey. She believes that self-care and wellness are not only for the privileged few but rather, a right for all of us. Self-care is a self-initiated, deliberate action to sustain mental health, keep disease at bay, and to assist with managing your long-term illnesses.

THE WORK
Self-Care Hub USA LLC was created as a solution for self-care and wellness, it’s accountability self-care. She envisioned a place that welcomes all people dealing with chronic stress and its manifestations in our bodies from intergenerational trauma, especially for women who are disproportionately impacted. She intends to provide holistic options that would address that need. Through modalities, products, and services to home detoxing and more.
In her journey to collective liberation Romy, like many of us, was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of options. It was because of that struggle that she began cultivating knowledge of the self-care practices she needed. She created an online resource hub, a one-stop-shop for self-care products and services. Self-Care Hub is a place where you come to seek refuge from the daily grind. An online space where you are affirmed, valued, respected, and gain a sense of joy as if you were stepping into a welcoming virtual “home” and community. She believes that self-care is far from simply the maintenance of your physical needs, such as how much sleep you get, your nutritional intake, or how much water you consume daily. It even moves beyond
what we generally may think of for our mental and emotional needs. She believes that self-care is simply "You Doing You.” Doing what works best for your personal story, stressors, or trauma. Self-care is you taking your power back.
