What Dichos?

In this episode, Lee Hughes joins us to discuss a popular Spanish dicho, "Uno pone, Dios dispone, viene el diablo y lo descompone."

Lee Hughes is co-creator and co-host of the popular podcast, Wildly Wealthy Life.
He shares his take of this dicho and how it has resonated with his own personal experiences. Growing up in upstate New York, he was presented with many challenges from moving constantly throughout his childhood, building a karate studio at 18, moving across the country with little to no money, struggling financially, all while attempting to break away from the idea of "settling."

Through faith and healing, he has built a life with his wife Kat that gives and helps others. Both are supporters providing shelter and guidance to those in need. Please learn more about their efforts to end child and human trafficking with the organization Zoe.

De todo hay en la vida

Translation: There’s a little bit of everything in life

In this episode, you will hear a lot of laughing. Not going to lie, at least every 5 seconds. Don’t believe me? Count it. 

Will Rush is a business man, coach, father, friend, and “therapist.” A Jack of all Trades. In this episode, Will and I discuss what it was like growing up in the San Fernando Valley in the 1970s as one of the few Black kids in a school of many Latinos and what is was like being raised by a teenage single mother and grandmother. He shares really funny stories about the times he went on a joy-ride in his grandmother’s car and why that experience taught him not to discipline his children with spanking. Many of these stories, we have shared during our training sessions at 5 am, since Will is my personal trainer. We discuss our beliefs about aliens and what we think this world would do if aliens contact us. Will is one of the many people I can freely have deep conversations about the current events, so we discuss racism and patriotism, what we hope America realizes, and why we have to continue teaching our kids the fundamental lesson of being positive and nice human beings.

Busca con las manos y no con los ojos! 

Translation: Look with your hands and not with your eyes

How many times have you heard your parents tell you this? 

Another favorite of mine is, “Si fuera culebra, ya te hubiera mordido” 

Translation: If it was a snake, it would have already bitten you. 

In this episode, guests Carol and Cynthia join me to discuss the phrases their parents repeated and how they contributed to the creation of their individual businesses. Carol and Cynthia are the example of boss babes everywhere. They both own their own businesses and have built successful careers in providing unique services to men and women by turning their dreams into reality. We talk about the traditional home remedies  Mama Banh shared plus the focus on service from Papa Banh. We explore the lessons of 1st generation and 2nd generation Chinese-Vietnamese teachings, love for food, and a greater commitment to the community.

La vida es una adventura!

My first guest is a dear friend of mine, Jesse S! In today's episode we explore Jesse's childhood in Hawai'i as a Filipina-Jew, her two main goals in life, how she ended up in Baja California, and what motivated her to continue on adventures. Encouraged from an early age by the adventurous spirit of her dad and the nurturing spirit of her mother, she set out from Hawai'i numerous times. Jesse and I talk about how she overcame homesickness living in Israel for 6 years and how she is teaching her son about his multicultural family through cooking and language.

Looking back, I can say that my identity has definitely been shaped and morphed by my family, friends, peers, and my own self realization. Trying to piece it all together, I came up with levels of identities that have defined me and how I hope they continue changing me, for the better.

Don’t be greedy! During this Covid-19 pandemic the world turned into panic and we noticed some of the greediness and all types of hoarders. In this episode I tell my favorite story my mom used to teach us about sharing, kindness, and giving.

It’s here! After a few months thinking, researching and thinking some more, I locked myself inside a closet with my sister Rocio and my daughter Savannah to introduce myself and talk forever about who I am and why I started this project. You may hear 99.9% laughter and if you’re lucky enough to understand the actual words, then you stuck around! 

Thank you!
