In this powerful first episode of a two-part series, I sit down with Marisa Lopez, a civil engineer turned real estate investor, who shares her raw and inspiring journey of breaking generational patterns to create a healthier future for her daughter.

Marisa opens up about navigating divorce as a Latina mom, breaking cultural norms, and building a healthy co-parenting relationship. From being told she might never have children to becoming a single mom at 5 months postpartum, Marisa shares how she found strength through therapy, family support, and prioritizing her daughter's wellbeing. This conversation is especially powerful for mamás considering divorce or struggling with family expectations around separation. Join us as Marisa shows how choosing yourself can be the greatest act of love for your children.
