We tend to think of cycles in a negative light, like the cycles of abuse or the cycles of complacency. But there are also good cycles that can lead to even better outcomes than the ones you have now. Once you make a positive change in your life and stick with it, you create a new cycle that’s in alignment with what you want. The more you bet on yourself, the more results you’ll see and the more motivation you’ll have to show up for yourself. This is exactly what happened to this week’s guest, and we’re going to share her story with you on the Chingona Revolution Podcast. 

 

Jazmin's name is pronounced "Yahsz-meen,” and she goes by Yaz. She was born & raised to Mexican immigrant parents, in Chicago’s Gage Park neighborhood, and has a deep commitment to social, economic, & racial justice for BIPOC communities. She works in data & evaluations at a nonprofit that prioritizes the organizational health and sustainability of small Black and Latinx-led organizations. She values mobilizing others to embrace their holistic selves & take action towards more aligned and empowering changes. She loves all things health & wellness, and inspiring others to explore their version of that for themselves. She creates social media content about her health and wellness journey, which currently includes yoga, caretaking of her 75+ plants, strength training, salsa dancing, getting out of her comfort zone, meeting new people, testing out simple and healthy food recipes, and connecting with other community-centered content creators in the city.

 

In this week’s episode, we’re talking to Jazmin Ocampo about how she went from perfectionism to purpose-driven. Through the Courage Driven Latina program, Jazmin was able to use the “Ghetto First Draft” to take messy action and launch her dream business. She knew she had to break the cycle of perfectionism to achieve her dreams. But she couldn’t do it if her perfectionism was going to keep getting in her way. With some coaching and commitment, Jaz has accomplished her goals and is on her way to setting new ones. Listen to Jaz’s episode to hear how she broke the cycle and started a brand new one.
