October 01, 2025Ep 24: Happy anniversary to the Cultura & Cash audiobook
Hola, hola! It's your girl Gigi (Giovanna Gonzalez), also known as The First Gen Mentor, back with Season 2 of the Cultura & Cash!

Today I’m celebrating 1 year of the release of the Cultura & Cash audiobook! If you’ve been following my journey, you may already know that the physical version of the book was released in January 2024, but the audiobook wasn’t available until September 2024.

Why? Because I had to narrate it myself and that took more time.

🎧 What You’ll Hear in This Episode:
In this episode, I’ve released the audio for all of Chapter 5, titled Debt Should feel Uncomfy
You’ll hear about my nightmare roommate situation, and how I felt stuck in a toxic living situation
I reflect on the reason I felt stuck was because I was bogged down by debt
In this audio chapter, you’ll learn what is debt, the benefits of a debt free lifestyle, limiting beliefs holding you off from aggressively paying off your debt, and actionable strategies to finally tackle that debt

👉 Hit play to learn how to pay off your debt and live like the queen you are!
