    Hola, Hello mi gente!

    I was able to chismosear with someone who I re connected after years... the best part is that we re-connected at one of my favorite places-Puerto Rico.

    We talked about his journey as a professional dance instructor, his home burning down and his decision of moving to Costa Rica during the Covid-19 pandemic.

    Chisme#63: Self-empowerment and healing through Public Speaking |Yvonne Armenta- Public Speaker

    Hola, Hello Mi gente Chismosa! 

    On this week's chisme we had the opportunity to talk with Public Speaking expert and speaker-Yvonne Armenta! 

    We talked about how public speaking is not only for extroverts, the healing and empowering effect of finding our voces and using it as a form of not only self expression but connection with our comunidad. 

    Quien es Yvonne? 

    Born and raised in San Francisco, CA, Yvonne Armenta is a Communications Expert & your host for all things Chats with Yvonne, a platform aimed at helping more Latinas reconnect with and master the art of public speaking. She is the host of 2 podcasts: Chats with Yvonne: Public Speaking con Cultura & the Ponte Perra Affirmations Podcast. Her hope is to continue creating opportunities for more Latinas to confidently take the stage.



    As usual, thank you for listening and if you are enjoying the chismes please leave us a cute review of apple podcasts :)

    Chisme#60: Breaking Barriers as a First Gen | Lucia Ortega- Money & Business Coach

    Chisme#60: Breaking Barriers as a First Gen | Lucia Ortega- Money & Business Coach

    Hola, hello mi gente! 

    On this chisme, I had the amazing pleasure to chat with Money & Business Coach, Lucia Ortega. We talked about the struggles of not only being a first gen but also being the one to break barriers, the one who wants to take the unconventional route to become fulfilled. 



    Lucia is a first-gen Mexican American. She is the first-one in her family to attend college and become a professional. In 2018, when her paternal grandfather got sick, she noticed her dad struggled emotionally and financially. She quickly realized she had to gain control of her finances and also increased her income. She then started a Party Rental Business in Los Angeles. In 2020, she started to create content on personal finance and then became coaching others to gain control of their finances and start their businesses. She taught for 5 years and have recently quit and now started a food business with her mom in South Los Angeles. Her goal is to empowered other first-gens, women, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ folks become empowered to build wealth.



    You can follow Lucia on Instagram and her website.

    Chisme#59 "Healing is Ghetto AF, sometimes. "| Lianne Torres- Watch Us Thrive Podcast

    Chisme#59 "Healing is Ghetto AF, sometimes. "| Lianne Torres- Watch Us Thrive Podcast

    Yup, you read it right. Healing is ghetto sometimes... lol. 

    "Breaking cycles" sounds like a superhero task, which it is, but once you are actually doing the work to get there, it feels like shit sometimes. We talked about this with Lianne Torres, founder and host of the Watch Us Thrive podcast, where she talks about  mental health, healing from trauma that keeps us stuck in sh*tty relationships & how we can reconnect with our inner magic. 

    If you are about to enter your healing journey or are in it, this is a must chisme to listen to. 



    Lianne is the creator and host of the Watch Us Thrive podcast, a personal development podcast that talks about mental health & healing from trauma that keeps us stuck in sh*tty relationships & how we can reconnect with our inner magic.

    After overcoming a life-changing event of domestic violence in March 2021, Lianne now uses her voice to share her story to create change and normalize these uncomfortable conversations around taboo topics, like domestic violence, sexual assault, suicidal ideation & more.

    Lianne is passionate about creating a safe space to talk about the trauma people have experienced and how we can turn our pain into power. She truly believes that you don’t need to let your trauma define who you are and you CAN heal from it. The first step is to talk about it.

    She also features amazing guests she's met along the way of her own healing journey to share their stories of what they've gone through and how they overcame it. We all have a story to tell and the Watch Us Thrive podcast is a platform to normalize these uncomfortable conversations.



    Be sure to follow Watch Us Thrive on Instagram, TikTok & Twitter to stay up-to-date!
