  • #8: Money Management 101: they don't teach you this for a reason.

    This episode has takeaways that can make anyone's finances a little less average. Financial freedom = lifestyle goals, sipping a drinkee by the pool in the middle of the week simply because you can. I sit down with Crissi Cole, the CEO of a financial literacy company, Penny Finance, and we break down our top tips for money management 101. They don't teach you this in school for a reason.

  • #6: "I sold all my things and moved to Mexico," Ft. Misako Envela

    On this week's episode I'm excited to share the story of my badass best friend, Misako Envela, who sold all of her things and moved from LA to Mexico completely on her own. She's a content creator, freelance marketer, and now, a digital nomad living the life of her dreams despite coming from a background where travel was never the norm. We talk about being a woman of color on the go, natural hair and how it shapes your personality, quitting crappy jobs, and finally finding the courage to believe you deserve it all too. Her tips will get you ready to pack your bags and leave your limiting beliefs behind. Don't forget to rate the pod five stars if you like it!

  • #5: A Letter to the Holidays by a Homesick Immigrant
    This episode is a little different. No guests, just lil ol' me. Literally, little, old, me. Is it just in my head or do the holidays really hit the aging concept hard? I've been in my feels thinking about my earliest childhood memories from Christmas in Brazil, but also how far my family line has come. If you're in your mid to late 20s, or early 30s, this year just hit differently.

  • #3: Sibling Rivalry, Growing Up, and Sisterhood ft. My Sister
    It's funny, even if you grow up with someone, you really don't know what's going on in their heads until you ask them. I interview my sister on her thoughts about our childhood, we talk about how to cultivate better relationships with siblings, and get to the bottom of identity, and how it's shaped based on your environment and family dynamic.
