Veronice and Diego Cafe

Meet Veronica Menin and Diego Tosoni, two of five partners from the newly opened Love Life Wellness Center in the hip and funky Wynwood district.  Love Life is a socially conscious “all-in-one” wellness center where you can get your yoga on, get a massage, experience reiki, enjoy a plant-based meal and even bring your dog in for a class of Doga. (Yoga for Dogs!)

We first introduced you to Veronica in Episode 3 where she spoke about her former company, Peace A’ Cake and how she broke into the vegan bakery business.  After making the decision to step away from Peace A’ Cake, she contemplated moving, getting far away and clearing her mind.  But before she could hop on a plane, an opportunity presented itself to her that she couldn’t ignore.  Spurred by her yoga teacher, Megan Elizabeth to create a juice bar/yoga studio, Love Life Wellness Center was born thanks to the collective minds of Megan, Nick, Veronica, Joe, and Diego – Love Life’s backbone and guiding forces.

Diego first met Veronica earlier in his life but as fate would have it, their paths crossed again years later and now Diego is an integral piece of the Love Life equation.  As we affectionately refer to him,  he is the “Diego Of All Trades” because he contributes in so many different facets to Love Life’s look – from the mural on the front of the building to the tables and artwork that you see inside.  His creative eye and artistic touch is sprinkled all over Love Life in obvious and not so obvious places and together, Veronica and Diego are each other’s Yin and Yang.

With the Wynwood Walls as its backdrop, Love Life Wellness Center could not have found a better place to open its door to the community and offering a sanctuary for people who want to connect more closely with themselves and others.  Together with partners Megan, Nick and Joe, they are helping to bring practices and food that are healing to the body as well as the soul.
