    “Mona Rosa is made up of two sisters, Maria & Fatima Jimenez who are floral artists, best friends & business partners from the San Fernando Valley & Los Angeles.

    They operate out of Los Angeles, formerly known as Tongva Land, where the Tongva indigenous people still reside.

    Mona Rosa was named after their mother, Ramona & grandmother, Maria Rosario. Both migrated here from Mexíco for the betterment of their family. They were taught the importance of respecting, protecting & caring for Mother Nature & passed this knowledge down.

    They believe in integrating their beliefs into their business. The sisters are social justice activists & volunteers for ‘Somos Familia Valle’ & ‘The Social Impact Center’ which are two LGBTQ non-profits that stand for the liberation of all QTPOC (Queer Trans People of Color) & other marginalized communities.

  • Interview con Chef Raul!

    Welcome to this episode! Grab your notebook for today’s episode and check read a bit about our guest!

    “Raul Morales is the recipient of a multi-generation recipe and tradition for “Tacos Al Pastor”. He represents the 3rd generation making the acclaimed Tacos Al Pastor. Born and raised in Michoacan, one of the most culinary diverse states in Mexico. Today, Raul proudly embraces his youth as an apprentice of the taco trade thru his uncle’s street cart of tacos al pastor. Raul often daydreams of those days when he would spend long hours setting up the “trompo” with the marinated meat. (Trompo: long spit where the thin strips of spice-marinated meat are stacked onto for grilling.) This was an art and a skill. He made sure that every layer of meat had the right amount of spices and marinade and was pressured correctly so it would cook evenly and to perfection. His faith was set when Raul, back then, still in his late teen years, decides to “robarse” run away with his beloved girlfriend (now wife of decades). This act, in traditional Mexico, meant the formation of a new home, and as such the man had to support it. But how? No other way than what he knew best. “Tacos Al Pastor”…

    THE REST IS HISTORY…”

    “Rita-Soledad Fernández Paulino is a former math teacher turned personal finance enthusiast. While sick on medical leave in March 2019, she started to develop her financial literacy by reading books, listening to podcasts, and watching YouTube videos. By May 2019, she became the Chief Financial Officer for a small start-up called the "Puro Party Paulinos" aka her family of four. Within 19 months in her new role, Soledad used zero-based budgeting to pay off about $23k in student loan debt, save a 6-month emergency fund, max out IRAs for her husband and herself, maxed out her husband's 401k account, and created an early retirement plan. She has since started studying to become a Certified Financial Planner to ensure more BIPOC & LGBTQ gente can receive financial planning from someone who understands their challenges and dreams. Soledad is committed to talking dinero with anyone willing to listen so that we can all build wealth juntos.”
