    Hola mi gente, I hope you are doing well! I have missed you, which is why I am excited to share with you our BONUS season 5 episode with the trailblazing Author herself, Giovanna González. Giovanna "Gigi" Gonzaléz, is a Financial Educator, Influencer, Speaker, Founder of The First Gen Mentor®, and a proud daughter of Mexican immigrants. Our author shares with us that, she did everything right. She went to college. Graduated with a “safe” degree. Got a stable corporate job with benefits.  But she still struggled with money. As the daughter of immigrants, she didn't get a blueprint on how to navigate finances. Gigi no clue how to pay down my $50,000 in debt and no matter what she did, she always felt like she was one emergency away from financial chaos.  So she turned to money books to learn how money worked. But what Gigi found was that most personal finance books are written by white male authors. Although they were helpful, they often made her feel overlooked and invisible.  They didn't speak to her Latino money values or talk about how to manage money with family in mind. Those books didn't represent the money experience growing up as a First Gen Latina who isn't just responsible for her own finances, but also the financial wellbeing of her family. Gigi's book Cultura & Cash is a culturally relevant money book that covers: How the First Gen starting line is different than our peers and what we can do to catch up and and take charge of our financial journey. How our cultura shapes our money experience, and how to unlearn immigrant money habits that keep us broke. How to confidently manage your money by implementing my First Gen Five framework, with a focus on peace of mind funds, budgeting, debt repayment, credit building, and long-term investing.

    Hola mi gente, I hope you are doing well this week! In today's episode I really wanted to share the most recent life realizations I have had, regarding my life. As someone who has been trying to chase her school dreams while pleasing those around me as much as I possibly could, life hit me in the face. And I am alright with admitting it to all of you, because I know I am no longer in such a heavy mental space. I hope this episode allows you to reflect back on your own personal life, so that you can continue to build yourself a wonderful one. I am proud of you.

    Hola mi gente, I hope you are doing well this week! I am so happy to share this space with you. Today I really want to talk about our mental health and how we can go about listening to our bodies when we need to take a step back from things. Just because we take a step back doesn't mean we are quitting. We are simply viewing all our options which that in itself is a very good thing. I appreciate you all so much, abrazos.

    Hola mi gente, I hope you are doing well this week. In today's episode I talk about how I even started attending Women Empowerment Events, back in 2019 when CCE was non-existent. It was those events that helped me plant the seeds, in the spots they needed to be planted. It is so crazy to think that I have been advocating for first-gen Latinxs in higher education for this long and I am proud of my journey. The pretty and the ugly, I would not change a thing. I hope you are able to feel inspired by this part of my story. I appreciate you very much.
