In this week’s episode of the Manifesting Latina Podcast, Dr. Norma Reyes opens up about her birthday month reflections and the surprising truth about turning 42. She shares personal stories of “failures” throughout her academic, professional, and personal journey — and how each one shaped her success, resilience, and alignment.

This episode offers a powerful reframe: failure is not a stopping point — it’s a stepping stone.
Norma walks you through how to stop letting past mistakes define you, how to use your experiences as fuel for growth, and how to close out the year with clarity, compassion, and renewed confidence.

You’ll also get journal prompts and actionable steps to help you look back at your year with honesty and grace — and move into the new year more aligned than ever.
