Please Don’t Quote Me! is the unfiltered journal of Ari — a 20-something Latina college grad balancing her 9-5, a serious relationship, rent deadlines, and the chaos of trying to figure it all out. From candid rants and quiet reflections to pop culture takes and quarter-life crises, Ari shares the messy, real, sometimes hilarious process of girl bossing through adulthood (whatever that means). No quotes, no experts — just vibes.

    A Life Lived with Intention

    What if the reason you feel stuck isn’t that you’re not doing enough, but that you’re not being intentional about what you’re doing? In this episode, I’m getting real about breaking out of the cycle of simply reacting to life and learning to make choices that actually align with the life I want. We’re talking about productivity, rest, relationships, social media, boundaries, and the little decisions that quietly shape who we become. So, fearless rule-breakers… are you actually living the life you want, or are you just letting life happen to you?

With her criminal justice degree from ASU, Ari shares her journey of landing a not-so-dreamy insurance job, moving back to her mom’s one-bedroom apartment, and eventually scoring her dream role.

Ari gets vulnerable about her mistake of comparing herself to others, sharing how gratitude journaling shifted her mindset. With humor, heart, and a nod to her fur babies, this episode is a relatable guide for navigating the messy, exciting post-grad chaos.
