Season 2 finale episode is here! And today I'm sharing simple steps you can take to begin monetizing your online platform as a content, creator, influencer or entrepreneur.  Social media is such an amazing tool to help us express ourselves, connect with others but also build generational wealth, creativity and freedom for women of color creatives. From passive income, organic posting or have very little followers, you can start getting paid to be you today.

With so many different sources for education in business and personal development, it's easy to get caught up in consuming rather than doing. Seeking out advice and information from different experts and listening to contradicting advice can lead to overwhelm, imposter syndrome, and not really committing to figuring out what really works for YOU. 

While learning and researching is a great tool to building your business, at some point you have to draw the line and be honest with yourself on whether it’s just a distraction and avoidance tactic that’s delaying your success. The best way to learn and grow is by taking action and figuring out along the way. Tune in to learn about why it's beneficial for you to limit what you consume, and why learning about what your community needs now is better than following someone else's blueprint.

This week's episode was taken from an Instagram Live I did a few months back, but thought would be beneficial to share on the podcast as we wind down the year and start thinking about plans for 2023! Tune in to listen to how I go about blocking out my month so that I have space for work, play, self-care and growth.

Throughout the episode, I share ways to plan around travel, creating content around my menstrual cycle, my FT job and based on my energy levels and upcoming holidays and trends to optimize my partnerships and connection with my community. I offer some insight on how I set boundaries with my FT job and prioritize self-care and my mental health.

So while I do mention starting quarter 4, keep this in mind as we transition fresh into quarter 1. It’s definitely not too late to share holiday content and start creating an impression with your community and your dream brands but also by recognizing that your best looks different from day to day and releasing some of the shame around productivity.

Boundaries is something that we tend to associate with selfishness because if you’re like me, you weren’t given the opportunity to set boundaries and when you start to do so, people may react out of the ordinary. Usually, our triggers are an invitation into getting to know ourselves on a deeper level and setting boundaries can bring up discomfort, guilt and fear and not setting boundaries can leave us feeling resentful, insecure and misunderstood. Both are uncomfortable but setting boundaries is an act of self-love and an act of love to others. It builds confidence and creates healthier relationships. No one gains anything from neglecting our own personal needs. Which first requires us to feel like we deserve time, space and respect. 

You are not mean for setting boundaries, for holding people accountable and for speaking up. It’s okay to be protective of the life and joy you’ve built and the work you've done and it’s totally normal to feel discomfort when advocating for yourself. So please be kind to yourself when you find yourself in unfamiliar or uncomfortable situations. You are on your own side 🤍 

If the holidays feel hard for you, know that you’re not alone. It’s okay to have conflicting feelings around this time of year. They all can co-exist. Sending you so much love.

Today’s guest is my business coach, Mariela De La Mora!! I’ve been working with her since February and her story and I can attest to the work that she does and how transformational it is.

Mariela is a business and leadership coach who helps women of color and daughters of immigrants become in-demand thought leaders. She is also a leadership mentor to 7 and 8 figure CEOs and even leaders in the United Nations.

By focusing specifically on the mindset challenges women of color experience, her clients reclaim their voices, make more confident decisions, and create brands that are truly unlike any in their market.

Before becoming a coach, she spent 16 years in marketing leading international teams. As the eldest daughter of Mexican immigrants, she was often the only WOC in senior leadership and had to break past systemic and mindset barriers to do it.

She has since built a multiple 6-figure business as a single mom, and served dozens of clients all over the world.

In the episode we talk through some of the difficult and courageous decisions she’s had to do to create the unapologetic life she leads today and how the spaces she didn't belong in became expansive and beneficial for her growth and healing.

Welcome back! I’m back from my month-long hiatus..

I’m learning that inconsistency is not a problem as long as I’m committed so I’ve been committed to other things like rest, my yoga training and spending time with family at the moment so thank you for allowing me to step away for a bit but I’m excited to be back!

As some of you may know, this Summer has been very active! In the last several weeks I’ve had new career opportunities which had my full attention and my sister moved in with us for the Summer so I’ve been trying to spend more time with her and Lupo.

If you’re familiar with my journey I’m the oldest daughter of immigrant parents and recently I've been prioritizing nurturing my inner-child and reparenting my self by redefining the narratives that no longer serve me. Shame and self-doubt that was something I carried within me for a long time. Being called things like, chillona, sin verguenza and mandona kept me playing small and develop a fear of visibility. In the last couple of years, I've been able to turn these labels into my super power.  By moving through the discomfort and leaning on my support systems, I've learned to release it in order to step into my most confident and unapologetic self. 

Throughout the episode, I share tools on how I’ve been able to move through self-doubt and release the shame along my self-discovery and healing journey as a first-gen Latina entrepreneur ✨

Low sense of identity, people pleasing, fear of failure, lack of boundaries and comparison were symptoms of self-doubt that kept me me in my comfort zone and missing out on opportunities for so long.

I hope this inspires you to keep going and celebrating your magic x 🦋

If any of this resonated and you want to learn more about rediscovering your most authentic self in order to show up more unapologetic on and offline, I invite you to apply for my 1:1 coaching program here:
