Here’s a peek into a convo I had with my entrepreneur bestie Nadie with . We’re unpacking why culturally competent care in the medical field and in mental health spaces is a must—because, let’s be real, these systems weren’t built for all of us. Let’s break down the barriers to access care/ resources together and push for real change. 💯

(Throwing it back to when I had blonde hair 😆)

On Wednesday we celebrated Mamita Gloria turning 87 years young — and she loved her surprise birthday party. 🥳

Twenty-seven years ago, she left Colombia and came to the United States to help my mom with childcare. She didn’t just help raise me— she passed down resilience, comfort, and a whole lot of sass 😅

Because of her, I know that softness and strength can live in the same person — you can lead with warmth and still stand up for yourself.

So grateful for the legacy she’s building in our family, and in me. 💐✨

Community really is the secret sauce. 💛

In this clip I’m talking about why we need each other now more than ever. Especially in a moment where the Department of Education is out here debating whether counseling and social work degrees even “count” as professional for student loans (make it make sense 😅)… we know the work still matters.

I met my friend Nadie in our counseling psych grad program years ago. Fast forward and we’re basically inseparable—cheering each other on, building our careers, and holding each other down as we try to be the kind of change agents we wish to see more of in the world.

That’s the power of community. Degrees can get reclassified, but the work we do and the way we show up for each other? That’s real, that’s sacred, and that’s not going anywhere. 🤎

Tag your grad school person or work bestie who turned into family. 🫶

International Students Week reminder: Being on a whole different continent chasing degrees, careers, and dreams is already a FLEX. ✨

On my fraternity brother ’s podcast , we talked about how so many of us, especially people of color, downplay our wins. Like, “Yeah I’m here, I’m doing the thing… but I should be doing more.” That hits hard for international students and international student-athletes.

New country. New system. Visa stress. Family counting on you. And still the voice in your head says, “It’s not enough.”

I had to check myself too — Spero is thriving, my kid is thriving… this is not the Humble Olympics. 😅

If you’re an international student (or were one), drop ONE thing you’re proud of in the comments. Big or small. Let’s practice saying it out loud instead of shrinking it. 🌍💬

Your inner critic has had the mic long enough.
It’s time for your grounded, soft- life era to speak up instead. 💁‍♀️

I created a free Affirmations Journal to help you:
🧡 Check in with how you actually feel.
🧡 Shift the self-talk
🧡 Remind yourself that you’re not behind, you’re human.

If you’ve been “I’m fine” on the outside and overloaded on the inside, this one’s for you.

Grab your free download in the link in my bio. ✨

Not just here for the cute group pic (though I love a cute group pic 😂). This NALHE summit moment is what happens when Latino leaders pull up with heart and a real game plan.

Grateful for a group that’s talking equity, patient experience, and culturally grounded care in real life — but not just in mission statements. That’s the lane I’m in with Spero Psychological Services, too. Helping folks feel safe enough to learn, lead, and be human at work. ✨

Here’s to building what our communities deserve, together. 💛

Yesterday we celebrated Tía Nancy’s birthday 🎂 My mom who raised me as a single parent and who worked long hours, she made sure I had a village. And Tía was part of that circle. She taught me to lead with compassion and curiosity, with God as my anchor and compass. At Spero, we keep that legacy alive by helping people practice care with intention and consistency. Who’s in your village? 💫

Spero grows by bringing in people who practice care beyond the job title. Francisco works in healthcare at Houston Methodist The Woodlands and brings 21 years in patient experience and collaborative leadership, partnering with teams to elevate quality and communication. He’ll help us turn what we teach— boundaries, emotional intelligence, and burnout prevention— into culturally attuned outreach and design that actually lands— on the feed and in real life.

So picture this: November 8, 2016. Presidential election night, and there I was seeing my very first client. It was like living out the start of my own real-life series, learning to balance someone else’s emotions while feeling my own about everything happening around us.

And fun fact, back in my college intros I’d tell everyone I wanted to be a business owner someday. Fast forward almost a decade later… here I am, business owner since 2019, reflecting on just how far that little intro line took me.

So today, if you’re feeling like you’re in a big moment, take care of you first. And then, if you can, go do that civic duty thing and .

We don’t have to glamorize the grind. The soft life I’m talking about isn’t about luxury. It’s sustainable. It’s choosing care you can actually keep up with. A quiet morning before scrolling, a real lunch, a walk to breathe, texting your group chat “hold me accountable,” putting feelings into words instead of stuffing them. You can be brave and gentle at the same time. That was the heart of my convo with Nadie with . Ending stigma looks like normal, everyday support— playlists, boundaries, check-ins, rest— built into real life and real budgets. If you’ve been white-knuckling it, here’s your permission to soften your grip and let yourself be cared for, too.

Explaining what I do takes a breath or two 😅 I built Spero to serve the folks who don’t always get seen. I do this via grounded, culturally competent psychological evaluations; supervision for LPC Associates (because the pipeline matters); and Resilience-Sí coaching that helps turn clarity into action. Many roles but one centering principle: Walking in my purpose. ✨
