Manifestation meets dark humor. God meets glitter. Come as you are — leave believing in miracles (and maybe yourself again). 💜 If you’re ready to reclaim your power and walk into every room like the goddess your ancestors prayed for — this is your awakening.

  1. A Day in the Life of a Unicorn

    4D AGO

    A Day in the Life of a Unicorn

    New year, new energy, and a very real life update. In this episode, I’m sharing what 2026 is already teaching me — from manifesting a third bedroom and upgrading to a BMW, to understanding that patience and gratitude will take you further than panic ever could. We’re also getting into the Benito halftime takeover, media distractions, and the slightly unhinged story of how a new pre-workout had me questioning my entire existence (don’t worry, I survived… obviously). It’s mindset, manifestation, growth, humor, and honest reflections about what it really looks like to step into your next level — even when it doesn’t look perfect. Follow the podcast and send this to your favorite unicorn who’s claiming their upgrade this year 🦄✨ 🎧 Share it with your favorite unicorn. 📲 Follow the pod on Instagram: @unicornsdoexistpod 🎥 Full video episodes coming to Substack. And remember… Unicorns do exist.

  2. Alcohol, Weed & the Lies We Were Told (Latina Truth Talk Gaby)

    FEB 4

    Alcohol, Weed & the Lies We Were Told (Latina Truth Talk Gaby)

    Alcoholism in the Hispanic community is often ignored, joked about, or swept under the rug — and we’re done staying quiet. In this episode of Unicorns Do Exist, I’m joined by Gaby, host of the No Pus Guao podcast, for a fun, honest, very Latina conversation about alcohol, weed, ecstasy, and why alcohol is the most normalized — and most dangerous — drug of all. We talk culture, family patterns, machismo, silence, and how alcohol is treated as “normal” while other substances are villainized. Plus, with the Super Bowl and Bad Bunny headlining the halftime show — aka the Benito Bowl — we dive into that cultural moment too. 🏈🎤🍻  This is real talk, simple words, lots of flavor — and zero judgment. If you grew up around alcohol, questioned it, or felt like nobody ever wanted to talk about it… this episode is for you. 🎙️ Follow Gaby from No Pus Guao ✨ New episodes weekly — because healing and honesty can coexist. 🦄 Listen Now Unicorns Do Exist POD

  3. Pain Is a Catalyst: Waking Up in a World That Was Never Okay

    JAN 28

    Pain Is a Catalyst: Waking Up in a World That Was Never Okay

    This episode is an honest one. We’re talking about what’s happening in the United States right now, why it feels so heavy, and why this moment isn’t new — it’s just finally being seen. And instead of spiraling into fear or numbness, we’re having an honest conversation about choice: the meaning we give things, the perspective we live from, and the strength we’re being called into right now. I share why pain is a catalyst, not a dead end — and why more than ever, we can’t afford to ignore what’s happening, or let it destroy us. Awareness matters. Standing up for one another matters. Becoming mentally, emotionally, and physically stronger matters. We also talk about how precious life actually is — and how you can only see what you’re willing to open yourself to. Your brain is trained to prove itself right, which is why women who believe “all the good ones are gone” somehow keep ending up with the same version of That Bad Man over and over again. Not because it’s true — but because perception shapes reality. This episode is about: Choosing meaning instead of fear Growth instead of despair Awareness without losing your humanity Strength without becoming hardened And why hate always comes from self-hate If the world feels overwhelming right now, this conversation will ground you — not by pretending things are fine, but by reminding you that you still have power, choice, and responsibility in how you move forward. 🎧 Listen now and choose to see differently — because what you focus on is what you create.Follow the podcast on Instagram @unicornsdoexistpod And make sure to follow the show on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, and iHeartRadio so you never miss an episode.

  4. The Attraction Problem No One Wants to Admit

    JAN 21

    The Attraction Problem No One Wants to Admit

    Why do so many people want passion, attraction, and a soft feminine partner… without doing the work to lead, grow, or evolve? In this episode of Unicorns Do Exist, Vanessa gets real (and a little spicy) about lazy energy in relationships—and why attraction dies when there’s no drive, no purpose, and no personal growth. We’re talking masculine and feminine energy, emotional leadership, physical vitality, and why simply having a job is not the same as being a high-value partner. Using insights from Esther Perel and Hold Me Tight by Sue Johnson, this episode breaks down what actually creates desire, polarity, and safety in modern relationships—whether you identify with masculine or feminine energy. This is not a man-bashing episode. This is a wake-up call. If you’ve ever felt turned off by lack of ambition, uninspired by emotional laziness, or frustrated trying to soften when there’s nothing to lean into—this conversation will hit home. ✨ Expect topics like: Masculine vs feminine energy in relationships Why attraction requires movement, growth, and leadership Emotional safety, polarity, and desire Why driven people don’t stay “broke” (in any sense of the word) How laziness kills intimacy—physically, mentally, and emotionally 🎧 Listen now, share this episode with someone who needs the mirror, and don’t forget to follow the podcast so you don’t miss what’s coming next. 🦄 Unicorns do exist… but they don’t settle for stagnant energy.

  5. Dating With No Intention (Yes, I Said That)

    JAN 14

    Dating With No Intention (Yes, I Said That)

    In this episode of Unicorns Do Exist, Vanessa gets radically honest about why she’s dating without intention—and why it’s been the healthiest decision she’s ever made. This is a deep, unfiltered conversation about love, motherhood, freedom, cultural conditioning, divorce glow-ups, and why rushing into relationships out of fear creates more suffering than solitude ever could. Vanessa unpacks how women—especially in the Hispanic community—are taught to endure, sacrifice, and follow timelines that were never questioned. Drawing from The Mastery of Love by Don Miguel Ruiz and her own lived experience as a mother navigating dating, co-parenting, and self-discovery, this episode challenges everything we’ve been told about marriage, kids, and “doing life right.” ⚠️ Fair warning: once you see it, you can’t unsee it. 🎧 Listen to the end for a perspective on heartbreak, loneliness, and why choosing yourself first isn’t selfish—it’s necessary. 👉 If this episode moved you, share it with someone who needs permission to slow down. 🦄 Don’t forget to follow Unicorns Do Exist for more real, raw conversations.

    Everything Happens for a Reason (Even This Mess)

    In this episode, Vanessa shares the full story of her Mexico City trip — the good, the bad, and the not-so-funny-but-somehow-still-funny parts life likes to throw in when you least expect it.What starts as a trip rooted in faith, intention, and joy quickly turns into missed plans, chaos, emotional spirals, and an unexpected loss that puts everything into perspective. Vanessa opens up about grief, missing home, motherhood, heartbreak, and what it feels like when life humbles you in real time.This episode is dedicated to her friend Rob — a beautiful soul, a jokester, and the kind of person who showed up for others and quite literally left this world laughing.It’s honest. It’s messy. It’s emotional. And it’s a reminder that healing isn’t linear, plans fall apart, and being alive is still the biggest blessing of all.Listen if you’ve ever laughed through pain, cried through gratitude, or tried to find meaning without forcing it.🦄 @Unicornsdoexistpod Come Say Hi  Tacos, Beer & Lucha Libre  Take a trip
