    52. Speaker Spotlight: Rosalina Felipe

    Grieving Life Before Cancer Diagnosis

    Meet Rosalina, a 31-year-old first-generation Latina based in Los Angeles. Diagnosed with hormone-positive breast cancer at 28, she became the first in her family to navigate this disease, experiencing a profound sense of isolation.

    Motivated by a desire to help others, Rosalina founded and co-hosts the Too Young For This Shit Podcast —a project initiated during her cancer treatment. Through this platform, she openly shares her experiences, addresses often-overlooked topics and provides support for those affected by breast cancer.

    Beyond her work, Rosalina is a breast cancer advocate, sharing her story on platforms like the Kelly Clarkson Show and gaining recognition in publications like BeLatinaNews, Calo News, Everyday Health Magazine, and Self Magazine. She has spoken at events such as Camp Breastie, the San Antonio Symposium, and the Check Out My Rack with Brem Foundation.

    51. Self-Care is a Prerequisite for Creation with Vanessa Santos

    51. Self-Care is a Prerequisite for Creation with Vanessa Santos

    Thank you to Tadin for sponsoring this episode.

    Today, I am joined by Vanessa Santos, Soul-Led Entrepreneur, Community Builder, & Speaker.

    We have a conversation about what happens when the “spotlight turns off”, when you deliver your speech and step off of the stage, or when you have a full day of being an entrepreneur.

    Our central theme: What is essential in the day to day, to be able to show up in the ways that we do and with the “poder” that we exude in our respective fields?

    As Latinas, there are still times when we have to work harder to have our voices heard, recognized, and acknowledged in multiple facets of life. We’ll uncover these themes & how they show up in our personal and professional lives to help understand how we take time to take care of & nurture our wellbeing, so that we can continue to nurture our communities and rewire our relationship to success, work, and wellness.

    About Tadin:

    Tadin Herb & Tea Co. was founded on one simple idea -- to respect and to share the time-honored tradition of using herbs as botanical remedies to promote overall wellbeing. Their goal is to serve the Hispanic comunidad by offering trusted, high quality herbal teas for this generation an the next.

    For over 40 years, they've embraced a careful commitment to crafting the best-tasting, approachably priced herbal teas to support their customers' healthy lifestyles.

Love everything! ♥️

I love Yvonne’s gift of sharing her passions such a public speaking, our cultura etc. I’m a storytelling perspective. It’s so good and keeps me hooked when listening to an episode. 💕💕💕

Love love love!!

I wish Chats with Yvonne existed when I was going into college. Each tip is helpful, the vibe is amazing and after an episode you feel empowered and ready to conquer your next speaking goal. I do a ton of presentations and learn after every single one but have also grown and learned a ton from this podcast. Everyone should listen, even if they’re not those who give presentations often, we all benefit from public speaking skills.

THE BEST SPEAKER I KNOW!!

Thank you Yvonne for providing the platform for me to share part of my trajectory in public speaking.

Getting involved in college was the start of my development as an individual. It empowered me to feel confident in myself and not feel embarrassed of my accent or feel shy in speaking up.

I now get to advocate for my students, my culture, and myself.
