Ch*ngona Revolution

Books have changed my life in so many different ways. Every time I want to make a change, or grow, or even if I'm just curious about a topic, I do a little bit of research and pick up a book. I can't tell you how much good it's done for me. Even just one book, the Alchemist, has changed the trajectory of my life three times! The Alchemist gave me the courage I needed when I wanted to break off my...

First of all, no one knows what they're doing. It's very rare that anyone knows exactly what their purpose is. That takes a lot of time and a lot of life to live so you're definitely not behind. Don't get too caught up in what everyone else is doing.    In fact, most people we know are stressing out about feeling left behind and how everyone else is doing. If you're feeling left behind because you...

The magic of mindfulness has gotten me through some of the worst times of my life.  We know there are always ups and downs - in life, in business, everywhere. We know that balance is key and that everything will correct itself in the end. In those low moments, I spent way too much time anxiously worrying about all the worst things that could happen.    Worrying can feel like strategizing, but in r...

The scariest thing about losing your spark is that it can happen at any time and from any number of circumstances losing your spark can come from a toxic relationship, losing your job, or a passion project not turning out how you wanted it to. My clients have told me that they feel overwhelmed by these "failures" and that they're not sure where to go from here. The word failures is in quotations f...

It's the end of the year, we're preparing for the next year, and I just want to say thank you for being here with us! This podcast turns three next year and that means three years of improving our lives, reaching for our goals, and being absolute chingonas! I am so proud of all of you, whether you're new listeners or you've been here since the beginning. I hope to see you all next year too!   As y...

If this year has taught me anything, it's that ups and downs are a normal part of life. It's frustrating, but it's true. Some of my colleagues have had a very difficult year in business, while others have had their most abundant year ever. I didn't meet my business goals this year, and while it's not ideal, it's not going to make me give up. And if you had a difficult year, it shouldn't make you g...

Chances are you failed to do something this year. Whether it's starting your business or starting to date seriously after a divorce, we all have these projects we never actually get to. There is no shame in acknowledging what you failed to do. But I do want you to take charge of your life and actually succeed at your courage project.    You can bounce back from failure and change your life in 90 d...

Now is the perfect time to start planning for the new year. We can start by thinking about how to make 2025 your most courageous year yet! The new year is the best time to take a leap of faith and reinvent yourself for the better, and the best part is, you don't have to do it alone!   Reinventing yourself doesn't have to take forever or be hard. I know this because I've taken all the wrong routes...

We are officially in the last month of 2024, and naturally, we're all doing a little more self-reflecting. My clients and I are thinking about our goals, our dreams, and what we accomplished this year. But there's always that little voice in the back of our heads that tells us we could've done more if only we weren't holding back.    Limiting beliefs, like the fear of judgment, keeps us from reach...

This week's guest spent years putting off her coaching business even though she was already giving away her coaching services for free. She pushed the business part of coaching to the back of her mind even though she had a line of potential customers asking her for her help. Patrons from her gym asked her for her advice because they knew they could trust her. Khay knew she needed to make a change,...

There's one mindset block that I don't see anyone else talking about but it keeps coming up in the Courage Driven Latina program. It's called passive action and it's keeping ambitious women from fulfilling their wildest dreams. These are not crazy, unattainable dreams. These dreams are well within my clients' reach. But because they find themselves taking passive action, researching for hours inst...

So many of us are going through a very difficult time right now. Whether you're a woman, an immigrant, a member of the LGBT+ community, or even an ally watching all your loved ones go through this, I want you to know that I'm here for you. We're all going through this together. To make sure that we, myself included, don't fall into despair I wanted to dedicate this episode to what we can do in tim...

We are two months away from the end of the year, and my mind is already on 2025. I want to get so much done in 2025, but I also want to take the time to look at what I did and didn't do in 2024. Let's go on this journey of reflection together and see what we can bring into the new year.   There are so many reasons we don't start our dream projects. It could be external reasons, like our jobs being...

Is this what you want to do with your life? That's the question this week's guest asked herself right before she decided it was time to make a change. She did a full 180, quit her job, and broke up with her longtime boyfriend so that she could start completely over. At that moment, Jess decided it was time to take control of her life and start manifesting brand new opportunities for the life she a...

It was so great to meet all of you and answer all of your questions as they came in. If you weren't able to make it, don't worry. This week's episode is the replay of the Magnetic Method Webinar!   This webinar is filled with information you can use to take actionable steps toward yo...

Sometimes, we are the only thing standing in our own way. We let our fear of failure, or even the fear of success, keep us from making our dreams a reality. But when you are annoyed, frustrated, or even paralyzed by your journey so far, how do you get the courage to keep going? How do you stop self-sabotaging and finally start making progress?   Are you ready to get out of your own way?    In this...

Strategy is a very important part of running your own business. But so is manifestation, and oftentimes, it's easier to execute than strategy. I know it sounds woo-woo but it's true! You need both to get the results you want, especially if you want to build a better life for yourself.    One of the main reasons manifestation is easier is the fact that you are manifesting all the time. Whether you...

  If you feel like you're stuck in a rut, you're in the right place. Before my clients met me, they were in that same rut. They had great ideas and amazing potential but couldn't turn these great ideas into their reality. And they weren't sure why. All they knew was that if they were going to turn their lives around, they needed guidance.    This week's guest is Diana Serrano, a student of the Cou...

So, you want to be an influencer? Being an influencer can be a huge asset to you. It can help you market your business, kick off your social media career, and become a trusted speaker in your field.  I think it's amazing that so many people want to become influencers!    But there is a secret to being an influencer that people aren't talking about - you have to be influential to be a successful in...

Have you been trying to manifest your most amazing life and felt like you're falling short? You think you're doing everything right but you're still not reaching your goals or hitting your milestones. That can be so incredibly frustrating.   I firmly believe that anyone can manifest, even the person who isn't seeing any results. It's not that you can't manifest. You definitely can! We just need to...

Making friends as an adult is so much harder now than it was when we were kids. As kids, we made friends with whoever we had to be around. That meant making friends with our classmates in school, our teammates in our sports teams, and whoever was interested in the same hobbies as us.    But as adults, we feel like we have two options—work and home. At work, we tend to want to keep things professio...

Sometimes when I talk about what I've manifested, people think that I'm talking about woo-woo nonsense. It can feel a little far-fetched. Like it's a skill that some people have access to and others don't. But I'm here to tell you that that is not the case. Yes, manifesting can be insanely spiritual. But there is also a formula for manifesting that is backed up by neuroscience. It is one of my fav...

Please join me in welcoming back our guest, Giovanna Gonzalez! Gigi just came back from a nationwide press tour for her book and it has been such a success. Now that she's completed the launch of her first book and her first book tour, she's ready to share what she's learned and prepare you for your very own pub date.    When picking a courage project, so many of our Courage Driven Latina clients...

My year so far has been filled with a ton of lessons and a lot of growth. My business and my life have been filled with so many ups and downs that I wanted to take a moment this week to reflect. I know that this is a part of life, ups and downs happen. But what you do when these ups and downs happen is what's important.  So what do you do when you don't know what to do?    In this week's episode,...

It's time to say goodbye to hustle culture and start focusing on what actually works - discipline. I used to be the type of person who wanted to hustle, climb the corporate ladder, and achieve the highest level of corporate success. But the more I tried, the more I knew that hustle culture is not at all sustainable.   Hustle culture is based on a lack mindset. The anxiety around hustling makes you...
