  • Warranted 5 Stars!!!

    I never leave reviews, but always listen to podcasts. I’m changing what I listen to and my self love is growing stronger. Podcasts like this are the reason. New fav podcast. (I only wanted to add that I still want to give 5 stars , but every other word you say is “right?”) Almost to the point of “I can’t listen anymore… I will continue to because I still want to give 5 stars , idk maybe it’s just me… “right?” 😅💕

  • Inspired

    Wow I am so inspired by this show. It’s so real and talks about life stuff I have experienced myself as a mother, entrepreneur and Mexican American woman. I have really enjoyed the topics and learned a lot. I’m glad to know I’m not alone in feeling failure at some point in my life.
