  • Saturn Return: Creating The Life You Want

    Almost 30? Are you starting to feel lost, stuck, and unfulfilled as you navigate your late 20's and approaching your 30's?

    In this episode, I discuss the concept of Saturn returns, which occur between the ages of 27 and 31. I share my personal experience and the four main things that people might experience during their Saturn return: feeling stuck and frustrated, feeling unfulfilled in their career, realizing that their life doesn't reflect their desires, and outgrowing people and habits.

    Saturn returns emphasize the importance of taking responsibility for one's life and making changes during this transformative period.

  • Things I’m not afraid to admit as a Latina
    In this episode, I give you my personal take on the Things I’m Not Afraid to Admit as a Latina trend. Is there a right way to be a Latina? Have you ever been questioned for your Latina identity? Have you been asked over and over again by Family about when you’re going to get married and have kids? Being a Latina, in today’s day, and age and culture can be challenging, it’s time to construct some of these ancient believes within Latino culture.

  • Eating disorders, body image, and self acceptance
    On this episode, I open up about my own body image journey, eating disorder, and the road to loving and accepting myself while navigating the cultural roadblocks that came with becoming who I am today. Eating disorders and body image does in fact exist within our Latin community, we just have to be brave enough to confront it and de-stigmatize deeply rooted cultural beliefs by changing our own narrative.
