  • 17. Give Yourself Credit for Where You Are in Your Business Journey

    In this episode, we explore the importance of appreciating where you are in your business journey and giving yourself the credit you deserve, especially as a first-gen business owner. Being the first in your family to start a business, build a legacy, or even finance your venture is a remarkable achievement. It's easy to start questioning your progress when you see others moving at a quicker pace. We can easily get distracted and start doubting our path. Join us as we discuss how to stay focused, celebrate your unique journey, and trust that you are on the right path.

  • Charge Your Worth - Episode 16

    Hello Socias,

    In this episode, I talk about the importance of charging your worth. I know many of us can do things quickly and want to charge less, but things come easily to us because of the amount of experience we have. This might be a work in progress. I have been an entrepreneur for almost six years, and this roadblock happened to me this past quarter. I hope through the reflections in this podcast, you feel empowered to charge what you are worth.

  • Episode 14: Quit Worrying, Start Doing: Breaking Free from Others' Opinions

    In this podcast episode, I share how I cared about others' perceptions and opinions of me before starting to create content online. That fear kept me paralyzed from showing up and sharing my gifts. If you have ever experienced this feeling or are going through something similar, give it a listen. Because trust me, you are not the only one.

  • Episode 13: The Empowerment and Machismo behind Corridos & the Entrepreneurial Spirit behind them

    In this episode, I share a moment in my self-doubt-filled entrepreneurial journey. While listening to the preview of a corrido, I felt many mixed emotions—sadness, self-doubt, hope, and frustration. I also shared how being raised in a conservative and patriarchal family led me to always doubt my ability as an entrepreneur. I hope many Socias born into similar households relate to my story and continue to break those rooted beliefs.

    Con Cariño,

    Lucy

  • Episode 9: Keep It Real, When Your Business NEEDS to Pivot

    In this Episode, I talk about why I took a 2-month break from this podcast. Truth is this podcast was created when I was only running my food business for 3 days a week. Now we have two food businesses - one that runs 7 days a week and one that runs 6 days a week. And the most important thing? They are two different CONCEPTS!

    This episode documents what happened between those two months I stepped away from the mic and how we are making a comeback!
