Platicando con Patty

Did you have parents who had certain expectations for you but not your siblings? Did you have to grow up fast at a young age?

Growing up in a Mexican household was hard. I think especially having working parents who weren't always there was the hardest. On today's episode I dive into my experiences and how my childhood upbringing has impacted the way I am today.

Tune in to:

• Hear about my story
• The time I wanted to run away
• What my parents thought about my dating life & more!

Are you the type of person to try figuring it out on your own before asking someone for help? Are you a mom who tries to do it all on your own for fear of being vulnerable and asking someone for help?

Guess what? I was both. I was the person who tried doing everything by myself. I was afraid to ask for help and this past year in my PhD program I quickly realized I wasn't going to be accomplishing my goals if I didn't start asking for help.

On Today's episode:

• I talk about why I struggle to ask for help
• How my childhood has impacted my journey 
• Tips for you to build the courage to ask for help
• How I'm much more successful after asking for help

Many of you know I am pursuing my PhD in hopes of becoming a professor and continuing to work on my research and teach in an institution. Today's episode I talk about how academic life looks like and the challenges that arise in pursuing this type of field.

Is it worth it?

I also talk about:
-  recent research discussing the career choices of women and why they choose different pathways
- how you can pursue a similar career and not be strapped to a single pathway
- why pursuing an academic career as a Latina in business is hard
- weekly updates on what's currently happening in my life

On today's episode I talk about why I decided to change my career in tech to pursue my PhD and business full time. As a Latina being a tech I thought financial security was all that I needed in my career and I neglected what I want to do in the present.

I also talk about:
- what type of career I was doing before the PhD
- what made me decide to change
- why you should pursue your passions

Have you ever considered moving away? Are you the first person in your family to do so? Do you feel guilty? Sad? Homesick?

All these feelings I've felt and I've come to understand that my journey as a first gen Latina is different than others. While some might never come across guilt for leaving their family and friends behind, I have felt these feelings.

In this episode I talk about my journey moving from Nevada to Texas to pursue my PhD. I also talk a bit about how my first year as a mom went leading up to our big move. Tune in to find out what my experience was like, tips, advice, and what I learned.

Do you ever make excuses why you don't apply to that job? Why you shouldn't pursue a degree? Why you aren't qualified enough to start your own business?

I get it, I've been there before. I make excuses of why I can't start now and guess what, I'm practically closing the door on myself because of that. You fear a door won't open but you're closing it before you even getting started.

On today's episode, I dive into why excuses close the door on potential opportunities and why we have to build our mindset to prevent us from making anymore. I share my journey of how I started my sugar cookie business and my coaching business, and how no longer making excuses led me to where I am today.
