MEGA - May 2023

In dieser Angelegenheit

Mind, body, and soul—these are the main ideas that drive the pages of this month’s issue. Here at MEGA, we believe that wellness is much more than a fleeting trend, but rather a culture shift that brings out the best version of every single individual. Take an unfiltered approach to holistic living, from traveling solo to embracing one’s bare face, with our cover star Bianca Gonzalez Intal. At 40 years old, the TV host, advocate, and mom is a living testament that kindness to yourself and others can go a long way—even in fashion. Discover the designers who are showing us how to make conscious choices in style. We also have exclusive interviews from sports newscaster Dyan Castillejo to international model Elise Crombez who are embodying their natural, evolving bodies. Lastly, discover the different ways to “feel well,” whether it's free diving into the open ocean, or getting a tattoo for your loved ones.
