Hello, I'm Chrissy Gallarello! I’m certified in both Holistic Nutrition as well as Health and Wellness. My journey to creating Purely Boxed began with a life-altering moment in 2020, when I heard the words, “You have cancer.” Although diagnosed at Stage 1, the fear and uncertainty were overwhelming. The hardest decisions loomed before me as I navigated the medical landscape, choosing a treatment path that would shape my future. Enduring two surgeries and weeks of daily radiation during the global pandemic was an ordeal I never anticipated. I juggled my recovery while managing my daycare, often leaving work to undergo radiation treatments, which took a significant toll on my body and spirit. Compounding my struggle were the financial burdens that accompanied my diagnosis; as my husband and I faced mounting medical bills, we also contended with the loss of income. During this challenging time, I became increasingly aware of what I was putting into my body and onto my skin. I started scrutinizing product labels, discovering harmful chemicals hidden in everyday items. Driven by a need to protect my health, I eliminated the microwave from our home and revamped my daycare’s food program to feature wholesome, dye-free meals, ensuring the children in my care received proper nutrition. As I healed, my passion for wellness deepened. I pursued certifications in holistic nutrition and health, igniting a mission to share the luxury of pure, clean living with others. Purely Boxed was born from that desire—a quarterly subscription box delivering carefully curated, chemical-free products that embody the standards I hold dear. Each Purely Boxed delivery is not only a selection of premier products but also a reflection of resilience, health, and mindful living. Launched in July 2024, Purely Boxed invites you to embrace wellness without compromise, celebrating every step of your journey toward a healthier, more vibrant life.
