Yup, you read it right. Healing is ghetto sometimes... lol. "Breaking cycles" sounds like a superhero task, which it is, but once you are actually doing the work to get there, it feels like shit sometimes.

On this chisme, I had the opportunity to chat with an amazing woman-Yvette Boden. We talked about her experience with depression and how she was able to find herself back.

Have you ever been told growing up, " estas llenita" or "estas gordita" "you should lose a little weight",? A lot of us did and it was quite traumatic. Body shaming is something that we experience since we were young and we carry on until adults.

One of the most basic things to do is to breathe and some of us don't know how to do it sometimes.

Hola Mi gente! I had the amazing pleasure to have a little chisme with the one and only Vinny Rivera, who is a singer and songwriter in the urban music world. He mostly sings Bachata and Kizomba songs, which are danced all over the world. In this episode, he shares his artistic journey and how pursuing his passion for music, not only fulfills him but unites communities all over the world. WHO IS VINNY? Born in Boston, Massachusetts to Puerto Rican parents mentored by his Dominican stepfather, Victor Rivera also known as “Vinny Rivera” is one of the hardest working singer/songwriters. Being raised in the city's melting pot, he was exposed to a variety of musical genres such as Reggae, Jazz, Soca, R&B, Kizomba and Pop, as well as the sounds of his native and neighboring island of Dominican Republic absorbing the sounds of Salsa, Merengue, and Bachata. As a DJ at 16, he began listening intensively and studied all types of music and later connected with friends and began recording and releasing songs, eventually opening shows with a self titled group called “Vinny Dinky & Crazy Joe” aka “Miwe Productions” for world renowned acts, such as Nicky Jam, Wisin & Yandel, Zion & Lennox, Ivy Queen, to name a few. Vinny later joined the United States Air Force and his experience in Afghanistan had taught him many lessons about life and the value of time. After serving four years active duty, he focused on his music career working closely and learning from his friends and mentors such as DereVinci, Grammy winning Producer Richy Peña, Jowell y Randy, Ivy Queen, De La Ghetto, and long time friend Jorgie Milliano. He eventually found his place as a pioneer of Latin Kizomba but focused his energy on a new sound that is “Bachata Sensual”, catering to a passionate audience of dancers and music listeners alike. His growing base of fans from all parts of the world have allowed him to tour in the United States, Mexico, Europe, and Russia, and the list of places continues to grow. Vinny Rivera's singing and writing abilities have captured the respect and attention of audiences around the world and his passion for music only grows as he continues to give his best to his fans. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/chismethatmatterspodcast/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/chismethatmatterspodcast/support

Mi Gente! I had the amazing opportunity to chat with Pabel Martinez, founder & CEO of Plurawl, Host of the 'Quien tu Eres?' podcast and Global Account Director at TikTok. We talked about the importance of redefining professionalism, specially at the workplace. A lot of us feel that we need to leave our authentic selves on a shelf in order to fit in or to be accepted at work, one of the reasons we might feel disconnected and tired. We are in 2022, and we think is time to redefine what it actually means to be professional without jeopardizing our authenticity. Pabel's superpower is uncovering the story behind the numbers; translating data to stories. He's been able to flex this skill at various technology companies such as Facebook (previous employer) and TikTok (current employer). Although he's been successful, he has met challenges along the way. He experienced imposter's syndrome, micro-aggressions, and racism. He would often REPRESS parts of his identity inside & outside of work in an effort to feel more included and less judged. He isn't alone. "According to a new study published by the Center for Talent Innovation, Latinos at Work: Unleashing the Power of Culture, most Latinos in the U.S. do not feel that they can bring their whole selves to the office. The study found the vast majority of Latinos (76%) repress parts of their personas at work.” Please follow Pabel at: IG: @plurawl website: www.plurawl.com Podcast:¿ Quien tu eres? --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/chismethatmatterspodcast/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/chismethatmatterspodcast/support

We talked about the stigmas about body and sex health education specially amongst Latinx families. We also touched on the importance of educating ourselves about our own bodies.

We talked about how they met, their families judgement to their relationship and how they have both flourished individually and as a couple. Eden and Jay, and are a queer couple who have decided to strike out on their own as social media influencers. They started thei page with only one goal in mind: to share our love and life with others and show that happy and healthy same-sex Latinx relationships do exist and are possible to have. In a time when representation is at its most important, they build a dedicated audience that's feels inspired by their authenticity and relatability as businesswomen, a powerhouse couple, and a lifestyle brand. They strive to be the representation we all want to see in the world.

I had so much fun on this Chisme with Charlie!   We talked about Charlie's story as a former teacher, stock broker and how they were not happy with this life and decided to live in their truth. During their journey, Charlie had to overcome a few obstacles and one of them living in a transphobic town, which affected them mentally. They overcame this very dark period by choosing their authentic self and  by understanding that it was not about them but society's hate/jealousy of people who are brave enough to be their true selves. This is an on going journey for Charlie because transphobia is cruel and real so they have to deal with it everyday of their lives. However, this is not something that stops Charlie from creating the live they feel that aligns most in their truth. They decided to move to Mexico, build their financial coaching business, in which they help others to make dinero (money) their bi&%!ch.  Charlie is having a workshop on how to build your investment portfolio on May 22nd.

Hola, Hello ya'll! We had an awesome chismesito with Dra. Nicole Cabrera Salazar, CEO & Founder of Movement Consulting. We talked about her experience/trauma in academia & workforce as a woman in Science. She shares how she went from loving her career to despise it due to the systemic gender/racism still existing in academia and the work place. She had to make a painful decision to withdraw herself from this environment, in which she was becoming a person she couldn't even recognize, and reinvent herself and live in her truth. Why does this chisme matter? Well, a lot of us have and are there. We are killing ourselves in college and in a workplace that feels excruciating instead of fulfilling. We are developing physical and mental conditions in return of humiliation and non appreciation. Some of us have to constantly fight to get a "sit on the table" with people that don't look like us and don't understand us. Dra. Nicole Cabrera Salazar is a Latina astronomer who is passionate about social justice in science and technology. After creating multiple initiatives in graduate school for marginalized students, she decided to shift her career away from research to focus on changing the culture of STEM through her company Movement Consulting. Like many marginalized scientists, Dra. Nicole left her field due to a toxic work environment. Determined to make sure others never had to follow in her footsteps, she started Movement Consulting to improve scientific workspaces for people from minoritized groups. We believe the world of science can be better - not in six months or ten years, but now. A world where marginalized people can thrive. A world that values scientists as whole human beings. A world where many worlds fit.

Hola, Hello ya''ll! I had the awesome opportunity to have some chismesito with Clare Guarin, founder of Beauty Traducida, and we talked all things skin and the journey of learning how to embrace it in all its seasons. Our skin, specially the one on our face is one of the first things people see when they meet us, this is one of the reasons we tend to feel subconscious whenever our skin breaks out or doesn't feel smooth enough. We spend a lot of shmoney trying to fix it and start using products we see on social media in hopes it will give us the same skin those influencers have. sometimes these don't work and it doesn't mean that something is wrong with us but that our skin needs and deserves a different type of product. This applies specially for us Latinas and other WOC, our skin/texture is different and needs different products/ingredients. Clare is an esthetician whose goal is to help POC with their Self SKin Love journey at an affordable price.

On Chisme#30, I had the amazing opportunity to chat with Joanna Muñoz and we talked about how she was able to pay off 100K in debt and at the same time build her side hustle- Painting by the Penny, in which she does Interior Design, DIY and Refurnished Furniture. Although Joanna and her life partner did have two good paying jobs, they did not realize how much in debt they were until they decided to sit down and create a budget and aggressively start paying off their debt. Like many of us, Joanna and her partner, were avoiding to see how much they were in debt and their decision to be honest and disciplined with their finances helped them to become debt free in 19 months and start building generational wealth. This chisme serves as inspiration and motivation for all of us who are in the journey of becoming debt free and build generational wealth.

On Chisme#29, I had the amazing opportunity to chat with Karina F. Daves, a mama, entrepreneur, wife, Life Coach and so many other great things. We talked about one of the easiest things to tell people to do but it is hard to apply it- Boundaries. How many of us have done things without really wanting to but because we think we have to fulfill someone else's expectations we do them. How many of us don't really understand our true worth or gifts, therefore, we settle for a mediocre life because that is what society expects to do? Karina, dropped so amazing gems by sharing her experiences and how these led her to her true calling, which is helping other women find themselves and their true passions, as a life coach. She experienced some dark moments but thanks to God and her learning to set boundaries, helped to redefine herself and start doing the things she loves. Karina is a Life coach, she helps women to develop practices and skills in achieving their GOALS in a bite-sized manner. She helps you dive deep into the things that are blocking you from you just killing it!

Hola Hello Everyone! On Chisme #28, I had the pleasure to have some chisme with Yvette Montoya aka The Bratty Brujita and we talked about brujeria, limpias, spiritual hygiene and the connection with our ancestors. Did you grow up thinking that brujeria was something del "diablo" and that was something taboo? Well, I sure did. Just a few years ago, I started to educate myself more about it and learned that these were our ancestors spiritual practices and that somehow my family also believed in it since we used to get limpias all the time. Yvette shares her upbringing and how her inner bruja guided her to break free from toxic environments, heal from generational traumas and tap into her true calling.

On Chisme 25, I chat with Evie Prete, founder and mastermind of La Mala Mujer, a platform for mental health, personal finance and career resources, and we talk toxic relationships, PTSD and how to heal from trauma. Why does this Chisme Matter? Many people have heard of PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) And it is often connected with the veterans military but they are not the only group that can experience it. Anyone who has been through any traumatic experience can develop it. Some of us have experienced toxic relationships and we don't even know that we might be showing signs that we are suffering from PTSD. It is completely normal and there are signs that will help us understand this a little better and how to overcome it and thrive after it. Evie is a first-generation college graduate with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. Her mother immigrated from Mexico and started a family in San Diego, CA where Evie was born. 29 years after her mother immigrated to this country, Evie is a successful engineer working in the commercial space exploration industry. Her story is one of constant struggle and overcoming adversity in both her career and personal life. Her goal is to help develop and advocate for other individuals who are also “first in their families” to navigate areas like, college, career development, creating generational wealth, starting a white collar job and prioritizing mental health. She is one Mala Mujer. Evie is also a dedicated athlete training in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and is excited to keep competing in tournaments.

On Chisme#24, Kim chats with Cinneah El-Amin and they talk travel during Covid times, paying debt and building wealth all the same time. Cinneah was able to pay over $23,000 in debt in 2020 all while living her dream of traveling around the world. Why does this chisme matters? Well, there is a misconception that in order for you to become debt free and build wealth you have to deprive yourself from the things you love. Yes, paying debt requires discipline but it doesn't need to require depravation from happiness and living life. In orders words, you can have it all ;) Cinneah is the founder of Flynanced, a travel and wealth blog in which she gives daily tips on how to travel and retire early at the same time.

On Chisme#23, Kim chats with Kim Guerra, Founder of Brown Badass Bonita- a brand and movement centered around inspiring and empowering Mujeres to give themselves wings through revolutionary self love. This chismesito came just in time for Valentine's Day! We know that there might be a lot of people who feel "lonely" on this day so we wanted to give a little regalito and talk about the power that is within all of us when we learn how to genuinely love ourselves. Self-Love is a word that has become trendy and it is painted in a way that is not real. Yes, bubble baths are cute and a form of making yourself feel better but it is not what actually loving and accepting yourself mean. On this chat, we talked about our experiences and how it didn't always look pretty but it has been so worth it. BBB products are meant to be worn and displayed as a statement and shield. I want people to feel like a walking and living revolution when they wear a Brown Badass Bonita tee. BBB was created to celebrate our culture and empower mujeres. Brown Badass Bonita includes revolutionary love letters, artwork, poems, and books that explore the complexities of being a Latinx, mujer, PoC, survivor, and guerrera. Brown Badass Bonita is dedicated to the community and badass mujeres.

On Chisme#22, I am sharing a little bit about my favorite practice- Manifestation! I started practicing (the right way) a couple a years ago and let me tell you, I have reached everything I intended. The term "manifesting" is trendy and tends to be thrown around a lot and sometimes it is not practiced the right away. Some of us have read the "Secret" and although this book is great, it paints a cute and misleading picture of what the laws of attraction and manifestation actually works. We can't just think, believe it and Puff! it will become a reality...it doesn't work that way. On this chisme, I shared how I manifested into 2020 and how almost everything I manifested became a reality despite the mess the world was in.

On the Bonus Chisme, Kim & Nadia from Self Love Astro share one of their most personal experiences of 2020- their Shadow Work Journey. Due to the already known events of 2020, our "regular" lifestyles changes and it forced us to stay in, stay still and hang out by ourselves in a sense.. this pushed us to face our demons/shadows and really get to know parts of ourselves we didn't really know existed. We wanted to dig deeper and found ourselves awakening parts of our psych we have either suppressed from our childhood or other traumatic stages of our lives. We discover the practice of Shadow Work and it has been life changing. Has it been easy? No! but it has helped us get to know a lot more and embrace side of us that we have been told are not good (shadow). This is helping us to be more authentic human beings and experience a little bit more of emotional freedom. We are not therapists at all but we recommend this to anyone who is looking to live a more fulfilling and authentic life. We figured to release this episode just right before 2020 ends so we can share our experience and release what no longer serve us. We hope this episode inspire you. in some way
