For Financial Literacy Month, this week’s episode is with Rita-Soledad Fernández Paulino, former public school math teacher and founder of Wealth Para Todos.

We talk about the power of financial education in our communities, how Latinos can build wealth without coming from money, and why self-care isn’t just about spa days—it’s about building the life you actually want, one smart decision at a time.

Meanwhile, Puerto Rico faces yet another massive blackout, leaving millions without power and prompting artists like Bad Bunny to speak out.

Then, we dive into the rift between Senate Democrats, as Michael Bennet openly criticizes Chuck Schumer’s leadership—what’s behind the tension, and what does it mean for the party moving forward? We also tackle a hard truth: undocumented immigrants pay billions in taxes while billionaires dodge them—how does the system keep letting this happen? Bad Bunny breaking the internet and finally, we’re celebrating Becky G’s latest win as she becomes the first Latina to receive the Pionera award at the Latino Sports Awards, proving once again that she's more than just a music star.

Success isn’t built in the spotlight—it’s forged in the quiet, uncelebrated grind. In this episode, we dive into the reality of doing the work day in and day out with no immediate results. Kevin Hart talks about how the hardest part of success is showing up every day, even when it feels like nothing is happening. But that’s the price of greatness—patience, discipline, and trust in the process. Because when the moment finally comes, the euphoria of achievement will always outweigh the pain it took to get there. Are you willing to put in the work when no one is watching?

In this episode, I’m revisiting a talk I gave at the Just Be Social Club mastermind, breaking down one of the biggest roadblocks we all face—bringing our ideas to life. Too often, we wait for the perfect moment, the right connections, or a clear path forward. But the truth is, the key to success is to be in constant creation.

We grew up believing in the American Dream—the idea that if you work hard enough, you’ll own a home, build wealth, and create a better life. But for many of us, especially as children of immigrants, that dream feels further out of reach than ever. With skyrocketing housing costs, stagnant wages, and an economy that seems stacked against us, is the American Dream even real? Or is it time to redefine success on our own terms? In this episode, we break down the myths, the realities, and what it means to build a future that actually works for us.
