We live in a sex-driven culture, and it can be stressful AF. What about the people who don't want to have sex because of past traumas...what about those who have sexual dysfunction and have so much fear to even acknowledge it to potential partners, what about people who just want to connect on a deeper, non-sexual level? These people exist and guess what, THEY CRAVE LOVE TOO. Intimacy is not just sex...it is so much more than that, and Anna is building a bridge to guide people to deeper, more fulfilling connections. 

Anna is the founder of Entwine, a dating app for individuals who have sexual dysfunction/limitations but still yearn for connection. Entwine creates a safe space for people to find partners without having the pressure of sexual expectations.

Have you ever wondered what your life was worth? Your assets? Your car? Your pets? Have you ever wondered what's going to happen to it all when you die? Who's going to pay for your funeral? What about your debt? These are big questions that we all don't want to ask or answer. 

In this episode, Sara & I are not afraid of being vulnerable and honest. We tap into a touchy yet essential topic and I learned a lot of value from her line of work.

A recent article on MarketWatch revealed there's a 50/50 split between older adults who soar in tech and those who struggle. The one's who struggle are more likely to have higher rates of depression, loneliness, and isolation because they can't zoom with friends and fam, or join a free fitness class. In a modern world infiltrated with tech, it's sad to really read the facts.

UnidosWeb3 is passionate about onboarding as many Latinos as possible in Web3, and that means older generations too. My parents are curious yet resistant and that's common. This episode was made with them in mind, to guide, inform, and express where to start and what the foundational terms even mean.

We have all heard the saying "if you don't slow down, your body will make you"...well, that just happened to me. As an ambitious entrepreneur, I have been all gas and no breaks for the last two months. Building a startup as a solo founder with multiple projects on the side has finally made me crash. 

In this episode, I tap into my hiatus, my health, and why self-care is a tricky balance.

Meet Lalo, a place to preserve memories for families, bring people together, and create a safe space for people to share those precious times. Juan is curating a special post-life present that I believe will be the treasure chest for many. Get notified when it's life at Lalo.app !

Talk about powerful Women in Web3! Kat is a former hospital administrator at Yale New Haven Health and has a master's in public health. She started her company in 2017 because she experienced a variety of frustrations in healthcare leadership, but mostly around the growing monopolies (including hospitals) and data inaccessibility. Because no one company can fix healthcare, Kat and her team are focused on creating Nectar: an open, accessible, borderless healthcare-safe web3 protocol that anyone can use; and Shyro: an app where anyone can connect, stake, and earn from their health and wellness data. With Nectar and Shyro, Kat and her team hope to inspire others to realign incentive structures in healthcare, and start fixing the broken health system.

***Trigger warning: breach of trust, spooky activity, stalking***

In the most recent months, I have been doing deeper trauma healing work and uncovering much about myself that I did not realize was dormant. The more I healed my trauma, the more I healed my body and reconnected to it, the more my intuition got stronger. I have always been "intuitive", an ancestral gift I am truly thankful for. But since recent traumas, I lost touch with it, and didn't know if I could really trust what I was "picking up" to be true. 

My therapist told me that my intuition was right, but it was the lack of instinct that I was not connected to. So I knew internally something was off, but I didn't "run" or respond as a healthy nervous system would. Why? Because trauma teaches us to tolerate what is not usually tolerable in order to survive.
