The Motivation Burrito

Last week's episode received mix reactions and to be honest, it threw me for a loop. I couldn't understand how such an important, profound, pivotal moment in my life didn't land and that I actually ended up having to explain or justify myself. And then I realized, it all comes down to what we have been programmed to believe and that a lot of us are still holding on to the idea that being vulnerable or emotional is not okay. So this is a very important message on the impact these beliefs have. 

This week was like the week of triggers, memories and past pains. A lot of stuff came up for me to the point where I not only imploded, but I spent a whole day and a half of crying. While September and October usually seem to be a season of grieving and releasing, I have done this long enough to know it doesn't have to be and that together, we can move through it better. It won't always be easy, but it will be worth it. 

September 15th started Hispanic Heritage month. This year is different for me, because I have finally embraced ALL of who I am. But for a while, I had completely disconnected from my Hispanic heritage and when people asked, I would avoid answering the question. Tune in to learn some fun basic facts and to hear my story!

I've avoided talking about this for privacy reasons, but I wanted to share a little bit about my family! As someone who comes from a large family, and who is of Hispanic heritage, family is very important to me. Not only that, but I believe that friends become family too, and so I share a little bit about my beliefs, some traditions and of course, my family! 

Recorded on Thursday 9/10, World Suicide Prevention Day. But also, a conversation about what's been going on inside my head. I've been resisting my emotions and feelings and I've mentioned some of the things I struggle with. I finally share the story of WHY I struggled with this to begin with. I've been scared to share this story full out, I've only talked about bits and pieces previously, but if I'm going to encourage self-expression, I need to be able to do the same. 

I don't have a catchy title for this one today. Talking about exciting updates and how the branding is going, then I go off on a wild tangent about traveling before finally getting into the topic of long distance relationships. 

Mostly discussing fear and how we tend to create a sense of impending doom. But it's in the moment where we can take that leap of faith, where we truly see that what we created in our mind is not entirely real. And if you can even master that, and clear your path and TRUST, you may even find yourself quantum leaping to your desires.
