What does it look like when advocacy is embedded into the DNA of how one practices?In this episode of Practice Disrupted, Evelyn Lee is joined by Pascale Sablan, architect, activist, and the 2023-2024 President of the National Organization of Minority Architects (NOMA). As the founder and Executive Director of Beyond the Built Environment, Pascale has spent her career not only designing spaces, but designing platforms for visibility, equity, and justice in architecture.Together, they explore Pascale's path into the profession, from being one of the few Black women in her architecture school cohort to becoming a nationally recognized leader in advocacy-driven practice. She shares the origin story behind Beyond the Built, her reflections on the labor of representation, and the importance of documenting and uplifting the voices of BIPOC designers across time and space.The conversation also delves into the systems that uphold exclusion in architecture, and how Pascale works to dismantle them through action: challenging AIA policies, creating traveling exhibitions, and supporting youth pipeline initiatives. Her message is clear: architecture must move beyond statements and toward systems of accountability."To advocate is not just to speak! It's to act, It's to move, to challenge, to build. Advocacy is a verb." - Pascale SablanThis episode concludes with a reflection on legacy, lineage, and the responsibility of naming, and remembering those who have been historically erased.

Danielle pays homage to Sam's one and only DCOM, Smart House, by bringing the adult horror version to the table with the 2024 movie AfrAId. John Cho and Katherine Waterston (delightfully) star as John Cho and Meredith, parents to three children who are being raised in our technological dystopia. When John Cho's boss requires him to install a very fancy Alexa in his house named AIA who watches their every move, what could possibly go wrong? Nothing, obviously. Definitely nobody dying. And definitely not demons. One of those is probably true. While things are going perfectly fine, John Cho begins to question whether he maybe should have done more research on the company he sold all his privacy to, and how maybe he should have quit his job years ago before his boss sold him out, and also maybe how he should have taught his children to have a little more stranger danger. Meredith, initially the voice of reason, is taken in hook, line and sinker when AIA manages to figure out auto-pay before she does. As AIA ingratiates herself into the family, they soon realize the problem is bigger than even John Cho can imagine. Mostly, Sam's pretty sure, because the AI trained on the Necronomicon; so you could see where that might cause some problems. Is AfrAId better than Smart House or just more fun to say? You be the judge.

En este episodio de En Defensa Propia, Erika de la Vega conversa con Andrea Lanzioni, una mujer que decidió no rendirse cuando todo parecía perdido. Venezolana, médico cirujano, madre, inmigrante, y sobreviviente de una huida forzada de su país, Andrea llegó a Estados Unidos sin papeles, sin dinero, sin inglés y con su hija en brazos. Lo que vino después fue una cadena de desafíos tan crudos como transformadores: dormir en su carro, repartir pizzas, limpiar casas, considerar vender sus propios ovarios para poder sobrevivir. Pero esta historia no se queda en el dolor. Porque Andrea encontró, en medio del caos, una visión. Y con determinación, fe y mucho trabajo, construyó desde cero un portafolio de bienes raíces que hoy supera los 40 millones de dólares. Y lo más valioso: decidió compartir lo aprendido con otras personas como ella. Hoy lidera The Investor Club, una comunidad que empodera a latinos a invertir, sin importar de dónde vienen ni cuántos recursos tienen. Esta conversación es una invitación a mirar hacia adentro, a identificar qué parte de ti necesita ser liberada, reinventada o escuchada. Hablamos de autosabotaje, de maternidad sin culpa, de cómo sostener una relación de pareja en medio del crecimiento, de lo que implica tener ambición y corazón al mismo tiempo. Hablamos de espiritualidad, de rabia contenida, de terapia, de dinero, de propósito. Y de cómo convertir las cicatrices en puertas de entrada a algo mucho más grande. Andrea no se presenta como una experta inalcanzable. Se muestra como una mujer que lo vivió todo. Y que hoy, desde la compasión, la vulnerabilidad y la experiencia, abre el camino para que otras personas también puedan transformarse. Si estás buscando inspiración real, si estás atravesando un momento difícil, o si simplemente necesitas recordarte que aún puedes, este episodio es para ti. Porque como dice Andrea: “Lo que nos rompe también nos puede volver imparables”. Aprende con Andrea sobre invertir en Real Estate y multiplicar tu dinero:

What would it take for you to leave your family, home, and country with nothing but a backpack? Imagine watching your country, your future, and your life slowly collapse, only to finally realize it's all gone and you have to leave. Millions in Venezuela faced this reality. In this powerful episode, Justin and his guest Faviola unpack the unraveling of a country and the crisis that has followed. Her immigration story is not just about political collapse; it's about identity, courage, and starting over from nothing. You'll hear what it means to lose your freedom, flee your homeland, and rebuild a life in a new country that is not always welcoming. This isn't politics. This is personal. Key Moments: A look at Venezuela's warmth and culture before the political & economic ruin. The ways authoritarianism crept in through elections, not force. The heartbreak of leaving family, friends, and dreams behind. How everyday life disintegrated with brutal hyperinflation and scarcity. What it takes to survive, adapt, and find your voice in a new country. This conversation is raw, real, and incredibly human.

A History of the Church through its Buildings (Oxford University Press, 2021) by Allan Doig takes the reader to meet people who lived through momentous religious changes in the very spaces where the story of the Church took shape. Buildings are about people, the people who conceived, designed, financed, and used them. Their stories become embedded in the very fabric itself, and as the fabric is changed through time in response to changing use, relationships, and beliefs, the architecture becomes the standing history of passing waves of humanity. This process takes on special significance in churches, where the arrangement of the space places members of the community in relationship with one another for the performance of the church's rites and ceremonies. Moreover, architectural forms and building materials can be used to establish relationships with other buildings in other places and other times. Coordinated systems of signs, symbols, and images proclaim beliefs and doctrine, and in a wider sense carry extended narratives of the people and their faith. Looking at the history of the church through its buildings allows us to establish a tangible connection to the lives of the people involved in some of the key moments and movements that shaped that history, and perhaps even a degree of intimacy with them. Standing in the same place where the worshippers of the past preached and taught, or in a space they built as a memorial, touching the stone they placed, or marking their final resting-place, holding a keepsake they treasured or seeing a relic they venerated, probably comes as close to a shared experience with these people as it is possible to come. Perhaps for a fleeting moment at such times their faces may come more clearly into focus.

En este episodio de En Defensa Propia, me senté a conversar con una mujer luminosa y transformadora: Merce Villegas. Autora del libro “Las 21 leyes del amor” e instructora de un curso de milagros, Merce nos recuerda que el amor propio no es un destino, es una práctica espiritual. En este encuentro hablamos sobre cómo podemos dejar atrás la culpa, el juicio y el miedo para vivir en plenitud desde el presente. Merce compartió su historia: una mujer que atravesó relaciones violentas, desconexión y dolor profundo, y que eligió transformar todo eso a través del perdón, la gratitud y una nueva forma de mirar la vida. ¿Y si el milagro fuera simplemente cambiar tu percepción? ¿Y si la espiritualidad no tuviera nada que ver con religión, sino con recordar quién realmente eres? Conversamos sobre cómo nos desconectamos de nuestra esencia por creencias que no nos pertenecen, por miedo y por repetir patrones familiares. Ella explicó cómo un curso de milagros no busca añadirnos nada, sino ayudarnos a desaprender lo que nos separa de nuestro verdadero ser: el amor. Aprendí que perdonar no es liberar al otro, es liberarme a mí. También hicimos un ejercicio práctico precioso para volver al presente: conectarnos con la respiración, con la gratitud y con la certeza de que somos luz. Porque como dice Merce, no se trata de cambiar al mundo, sino de inspirar con nuestra propia transformación. Este episodio está cargado de reflexiones que empoderan y herramientas para vivir con más consciencia, menos juicio y más compasión. Es una invitación a dejar de buscar afuera lo que siempre ha estado dentro de ti. Si alguna vez te has preguntado si hay otra manera de vivir, este episodio puede ser ese primer paso. Merce comparte cómo comenzar a estudiar este curso de forma digerible, con ejercicios, guía práctica y su plataforma online. No necesitas ser experta ni tener una vida “perfecta”, solo necesitas estar dispuesta a mirar hacia adentro y recordar que ya eres suficiente. Escúchalo hasta el final porque hay un regalo de conexión, un ejercicio poderoso que puedes hacer ahora mismo para reconectar contigo, con tu luz y con el milagro de estar viva. Hay experiencias que marcan un antes y un después en tu vida. Este retiro puede ser una de ellas. Del 28 al 31 de agosto de 2025, acompáñame en Playa del Carmen para vivir una transformación radical junto a la Dra. Shefali Tsabary. Será un encuentro exclusivo para mujeres en el hermoso hotel AIA, diseñado para reconectar contigo, soltar lo que ya no sirve y despertar a tu poder interior. Todo está incluido, solo necesitas llegar… y dejarte transformar.

The phrase “it's just a small project” has probably caused more confusion, blown more budgets, and strained more relationships than we'd care to admit. It sounds harmless, maybe even charming - the architectural equivalent of a quick favor. But that phrase carries weight. Because behind every modest addition, bathroom remodel, or garage conversion is the same professional rigor we apply to larger work … just without the benefit of scale. Whether it's fees that don't shrink as expected, construction costs that defy logic, or clients caught off guard by the number of decisions they'll need to make, these projects demand clarity, patience, and experience. So today, we're talking about what architects need to communicate, anticipate, and prepare for when the work is small but the expectations are not. Welcome to Episode 180: Size Doesn't Matter.  [Note: If you are reading this via email, click here to access the on-site audio player]  Architectural Fees Don't Scale jump to 3:50 One of the most misunderstood aspects of residential design is how architectural fees are determined. Many clients assume that a smaller project should result in a proportionally smaller fee. But architectural fees don't scale like that. A 400-square-foot addition still requires site measurements, code research, zoning analysis, (possibly) consultant coordination, and detailed documentation. Whether the project is 400 or 4,000 square feet, many of the baseline efforts remain the same. You still need floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, building sections, wall sections, electrical layouts, and coordination with structural engineers or energy consultants. And while the documentation may be shorter, the care and precision required to make a small project work can sometimes take even more time. For example, a kitchen renovation might involve more detail and coordination per square foot than an entire house. The AIA has published guidance on fee structures in the "Architect's Handbook of Professional Practice," (this is a book that I highly recommend) which notes that project complexity and risk should be used to help determine compensation, not just size. As architects, we must be clear in helping clients understand that fees represent time and expertise, not floor area. If you charge a fixed fee or percentage of construction cost, be sure to explain what that covers and what it doesn't. Helping clients see the value in pre-design services, permitting assistance, and construction observation can prevent misunderstandings later. Saving the best for last, just because it's a small project doesn't mean the liability is small. Professional risk remains, which means the time spent to get it right matters, regardless of scale. the post that I referenced in our discussions was this one ...*the penalty of drawing too much -  Excessive or Essential? The Entire Timeline jump to 9:43 Clients often think the timeline for a small project will be quick. And to be fair, the design phase might be shorter than that of a ground-up custom home. But that's only one piece of the puzzle. Permitting can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months, depending on the jurisdiction. In some cities, small additions are routed through full plan review just like new homes. And once the project is permitted, the construction timeline is subject to the availability of contractors and materials, site conditions, and even weather. It's our responsibility to help clients understand the full arc of the process. According to a 2023 survey from Houzz, the average design-to-completion timeline for a kitchen remodel is around 8-12 months, even when the construction itself only takes 2-3. Why the gap? Because there are lags built into the process. Design review boards, HOA approvals, contractor bidding windows, and permit review times all add up. When you add in backorders on appliances or materials, things can shift quickly. That's why it's so important to map out the process...

Desde que soy mamá de un adolescente, muchas cosas en mí han cambiado. He tenido que cuestionarme cómo estoy acompañando a mi hijo: ¿desde mis propias heridas o desde una comprensión real de lo que él necesita? En este episodio de En Defensa Propia, me acompañan dos mujeres increíbles que me han ayudado a ver la adolescencia desde un lugar más humano, científico y compasivo: la psiquiatra Marían Rojas Estapé y la neuropsicóloga Carina Castro Fumero. Hablamos de todo lo que está ocurriendo en el cerebro adolescente, de cómo se desarrolla la corteza prefrontal y de por qué nuestros hijos a veces parecen actuar como si no nos quisieran cerca. Entendí que no es rebeldía, es un cerebro en construcción que necesita límites, validación y muchísimo amor. Tocamos temas delicados pero urgentes como la ansiedad, el insomnio, la comparación en redes, las autolesiones y el ciberbullying. También hablamos del enorme impacto que tienen las pantallas y cómo debemos acompañar esa exposición desde casa. Una de las cosas más reveladoras de esta conversación fue comprender que la adolescencia no es solo una etapa difícil para nuestros hijos, también lo es para nosotros como padres. A veces se despierta nuestro niño herido, la culpa por lo que no hicimos o el miedo de repetir los mismos errores de nuestros padres. Pero no todo está perdido. Incluso si tu hijo ya tiene 16 años, siempre hay maneras de reconectar, de abrir canales de comunicación, de mostrar que estamos presentes sin invadir. También compartimos herramientas prácticas: cómo aprovechar momentos sin contacto visual para hablar de temas incómodos (como el sexo o la pornografía), cómo establecer reuniones familiares que fortalezcan la confianza y cómo poner límites sin castigar, sino enseñando. Marían y Karina insisten en que la mejor prevención es un sueño adecuado, una alimentación sana, menos pantallas y más deporte. Y sobre todo, escuchar sin interrumpir. Este episodio es una guía emocional para todos los padres que sienten que su hijo se les está yendo de las manos. Es también una invitación a sanar nuestra propia adolescencia para no educar desde el miedo ni la exigencia. Estoy segura de que esta conversación no solo te dará claridad, sino también esperanza. Porque al final, la adolescencia es una aventura compartida. Y si entendemos lo que nuestros hijos están viviendo, podemos acompañarlos con más amor, más paciencia y menos juicio. Hay experiencias que te marcan para siempre… y este retiro puede ser una de ellas.Del 28 al 31 de agosto de 2025, acompáñanos en Playa del Carmen, en el hotel AIA, a vivir una transformación profunda junto a la Dra.

What if your future came down to one decision: stand trial or take a plea? In this gripping episode, we follow Angel's journey through the justice system, from rejecting trial and negotiating his own plea deals to enduring the unforgiving reality of long-term incarceration. He opens up about the violent rules of prison politics, the mental strain of life behind bars, and the hidden battles of reentering society after decades inside. It's a raw, eye-opening account of choices, their consequences, and the resilience it takes to survive a system stacked against you. Key Moments in this Episode:Why Angel avoided trial and negotiated plea deals to protect himself. The harsh prison hierarchy: race-based survival, violence, and constant power struggles. The emotional toll of missing family while in prison, especially during the holidays. How Angel used education to preserve his identity and sharpen his mind. The struggle to adjust to a world that has moved on without you. This episode isn't just about crime or punishment; it's about humanity. Angel's story forces us to reconsider what justice looks like, what prison really does to people, and how nearly impossible it is to start over after being swallowed by the system. Listen now and challenge your assumptions as you walk a mile in the shoes of someone still finding his way after decades of being locked up.

¡Hola, soy Erika de la Vega y te doy la bienvenida a un nuevo episodio de En Defensa Propia! Hoy vengo con un tema que me han pedido muchísimo: cómo renacer después de un divorcio. Este episodio es especial porque hablé con la increíble Elena Crespo, una abogada de familia y mujer empoderada que, desde su propia experiencia, me dio valiosos consejos sobre cómo podemos atravesar este proceso tan doloroso con madurez, dignidad y, lo más importante, transformarnos en una mejor versión de nosotras mismas. Si alguna vez has pasado por una separación o estás en medio de una, sabes lo difícil que es gestionar no solo el final de una relación, sino la reestructuración completa de tu vida. Elena me contó cómo ella vivió su propio proceso de divorcio, y lo más inspirador es cómo logró usar esa experiencia para crecer tanto profesional como personalmente. En este episodio, hablamos de cómo salir de esa etapa de dolor y dar paso a una nueva vida llena de posibilidades. Uno de los mensajes clave de Elena es que el divorcio no es el fin, sino el principio de una nueva etapa. Aunque la tristeza y el dolor son inevitables, también lo es la oportunidad de crecer, aprender y reconstruirse. Del divorcio se sale, pero hay que salir más fuerte, me dijo Elena, y esa frase me quedó grabada. Nadie te prepara para lo que implica una separación, pero sí se puede salir más empoderada, más sabia y más conectada contigo misma. Lo que más me tocó fue cuando Elena me dijo: "Los hijos estarán bien si la mamá y el papá están bien". Eso me hizo reflexionar profundamente sobre cómo nuestros hijos perciben nuestras emociones, nuestras decisiones y nuestra capacidad de adaptarnos al cambio. Para los padres que están pasando por una separación, este consejo es oro puro: no se trata solo de nosotros, sino también de cómo manejamos la situación por el bienestar de nuestros hijos. Si te encuentras atravesando un divorcio o una ruptura, te invito a escuchar este episodio y dejarte inspirar por la historia de Elena Crespo y su proceso de reinvención. ¡Te prometo que no te arrepentirás! No olvides suscribirte, compartir este episodio con quienes creas que lo necesitan y dejarme tus comentarios. Me encantaría saber cómo te ha ayudado este contenido en tu propio proceso.¡Nos vemos en el próximo episodio de En Defensa Propia!  ✨ Hay momentos que te cambian para siempre...Y este retiro puede ser uno de ellos.

En esta poderosa entrevista con Pilar Sordo, hablamos sobre temas que nos tocan profundamente: vulnerabilidad, fortaleza, dolor, y resiliencia. Pilar, reconocida psicóloga y escritora, nos comparte su visión transformadora sobre cómo enfrentar nuestras emociones y aprender a gestionar las adversidades de la vida. Este episodio de En Defensa Propia es un viaje hacia la aceptación, el autoconocimiento y el crecimiento personal. Desde el principio, Pilar nos invita a reflexionar sobre la vulnerabilidad como una clave de fortaleza, un concepto que va en contra de las creencias tradicionales. ¿Cómo puede la vulnerabilidad convertirse en nuestro mayor poder? Pilar explica que aceptar nuestras emociones y mostrarnos tal como somos no solo nos permite sanar, sino también fortalecernos. Para ella, la verdadera fortaleza no radica en resistir el dolor, sino en dejarse atravesar por él, aceptarlo y transformarlo en una oportunidad para crecer. Uno de los puntos más reveladores de la entrevista es cómo el dolor y la incomodidad pueden ser los ingredientes esenciales para desarrollar resiliencia. Pilar nos habla sobre la importancia de vivir las emociones plenamente sin rechazar el sufrimiento. Según ella, el dolor es un proceso necesario para reconstruirnos y aprender a ser más fuertes desde adentro. En este proceso, la resiliencia no es algo con lo que nacemos, sino una habilidad que construimos enfrentando las dificultades de la vida con una mentalidad abierta y flexible. A lo largo de la conversación, Pilar también aborda temas como la relación entre generaciones y cómo los modelos de crianza pueden influir en nuestra forma de gestionar las emociones. Nos explica cómo generaciones pasadas, en su mayoría, no fueron educadas para conectar con el placer o la vulnerabilidad, sino que se enfocaron en la responsabilidad y el sacrificio, lo que afectó profundamente su bienestar emocional. Ahora, las generaciones más jóvenes tienen la oportunidad de romper estos patrones y aprender a equilibrar sus emociones de una manera más consciente y saludable. Pilar nos recuerda que pedir ayuda es un acto de valentía, no de debilidad. Reconocer cuando necesitamos apoyo y buscarlo es fundamental para nuestra salud mental. Además, nos habla sobre la importancia de reconocer y usar nuestra vulnerabilidad para crecer internamente, sin miedo a ser vistos como “débiles”. Este episodio es una invitación a hacer una pausa, reflexionar y aceptar lo que somos, lo que sentimos y lo que la vida nos trae. No te pierdas esta conversación transformadora con Pilar Sordo, donde aprenderás a gestionar el dolor, abrazar la vulnerabilidad y construir una fortaleza emocional duradera. Si estás buscando formas de mejorar tu bienestar emocional y aprender a vivir de manera más auténtica y resiliente, este episodio es para ti.  ✨ Hay momentos que te cambian para siempre...Y este retiro puede ser uno de ellos.

When High School Musical 2 premiered on Disney Channel in August 2007, it shattered records with over 17 million viewers tuning in on its first night — making it the most-watched cable movie at the time. Trading school hallways for summer jobs at a posh country club, the film dives deeper into the personal growth of its characters, especially Troy Bolton. As he's tempted by opportunities that could shape his future, he starts to drift from his friends and Gabriella, leading to heartfelt moments like “Gotta Go My Own Way” and the now-iconic (and meme-worthy) “Bet On It.” With a vibrant setting, high-energy choreography, and a soundtrack that defined a generation, the movie balances summer fun with themes of loyalty, ambition, and staying true to yourself. What sets High School Musical 2 apart from the original is its emotional depth and visual glow-up. From Sharpay's hilariously over-the-top “Fabulous” to the sun-soaked golf course showdowns, the movie feels bigger and bolder while still holding onto the sincerity that made the first film a hit. For many fans, it remains the best in the trilogy - not just for the catchy songs, but for how it captures the confusing transition between teenage fun and adult choices. At its core, it's a feel-good reminder that success means little if you lose yourself along the way.   Takeaways: Unlike the first movie, High School Musical 2 explores personal ambition and integrity. Troy's internal conflict between chasing opportunity and staying loyal to his friends adds emotional depth that resonates with viewers growing up alongside the characters. The entire movie takes place in a wealthy country club, with Troy and his friends working as staff while Sharpay enjoys every luxury. This creates a visible tension between socioeconomic classes - particularly when Troy is offered elite opportunities at the expense of his peer group. The summer setting shows that learning and personal growth don't pause when school is out. How we support students in extended learning environments (internships, summer programs, real-world exposure) can have lasting impact. Gabriella choosing to walk away from what doesn't align with her values is a powerful example of student agency. When schools give students meaningful choices in their learning and extracurriculars, they're more likely to take ownership of their growth.     About Erin Jennings, IIDA, AIA, NCIDQ, NCARB: Erin Jennings, IIDA, AIA, NCIDQ, NCARB is an Architect, Registered Interior Designer, and Principal for Luminaut, believing that design is just as much about the way something looks as it is about how it functions. Her commitment to that philosophy has yielded the award-winning designs of numerous university, library, and k-12 projects. Her design efforts are motivated by a desire to create conscious impact on the end-user experience. Community environments are the spaces in which Erin's leadership skills and her interdisciplinary approach have had the most positive influence on the greatest number of people.  She's highly involved in industry and community organizations both regionally and nationally, and through regular attendance and speaking engagements at thought-leadership conferences.  She currently serves on advisory boards, closely monitors building trends, space planning techniques, and continually studies and tests innovative products, all while keeping the protection of the public at the forefront of mind. As the Immediate Past President of the International Board of Directors for CIDQ, she closely collaborates with industry regulatory partners from NCARB, CLARB, and NCEES.  She has demonstrated industry advocacy experience as a Past President for the IIDA Indiana Chapter and Past Chair for the AIA National Interior Architecture Knowledge Community.  She's knowledgeable, meticulous, and advocates relentlessly on behalf of her clients and their end-users. Erin's continued deep-rooted passion subsists in mentoring young professionals, and most recently, teaching students in the collegiate setting. As an Adjunct Instructor of Interior Design at the College of Architecture & Planning at Ball State University, she strives to bridge the disciplines of architecture and interior design, not to advocate that one can do another, but to advocate the value-add when the two work in harmony with one another.  Erin has committed her life and career to advancing the design industry. From her dual degreed experience at Ball State, to the licensing and certification process for both interior design and architecture, she strives to engage at the highest level. Her main focus: Fostering passion and compassion through elevating the human experience within the built learning environment.     Learn More About Erin Jennings, IIDA, AIA, NCIDQ, NCARB: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/erin-jennings-iida-aia-ncidq-ncarb-3a23b111/   Learn More About Luminaut: Website: https://luminaut.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/luminautarchitecture/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/luminaut/       Connect with Host, Carla Cummins: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carla-cummins-01449659/   Learn More About Kay-Twelve: Website: https://kay-twelve.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/kay-twelve-com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kay_twelve/       Episode 238 of the Better Learning Podcast Kevin Stoller is the host of the Better Learning Podcast and Co-Founder of Kay-Twelve, a national leader for educational furniture.

En este episodio de En Defensa Propia conversé con Sabrina Murillo, una mujer que vivió una tragedia que parecía final, pero que se convirtió en el verdadero comienzo de su historia. Una historia de transformación, resiliencia y propósito. Hace unos años, Sabrina fue protagonista de un accidente terrible en el que un carro cayó desde el cuarto piso de un estacionamiento en la ciudad de Panamá. En ese vehículo iban su papá, su hermana menor, su novio… y ella. El resultado fue devastador: su familia falleció y a Sabrina la dieron por muerta. Pero el milagro ocurrió. Un vecino médico notó que aún respiraba, la intubó en el lugar y comenzó así su largo camino de recuperación. En esta conversación, Sabrina cuenta con una claridad que conmueve cómo fue reconstruirse desde cero, no solo físicamente—quedó parapléjica—sino emocional, mental y espiritualmente. Estuvo en coma inducido, con traqueotomía, múltiples cirugías, perdió parte del cráneo y tuvo que volver a aprenderlo todo: hablar, escribir, incluso comer. Pero lo más impactante fue cómo eligió no verse como víctima, sino convertirse en protagonista de su vida. "Nadie puede cambiar tu forma de pensar, es una decisión propia", me dijo. Y esa frase se me quedó grabada. Durante la entrevista, Sabrina habla del duelo, la culpa del sobreviviente y cómo pasó del “¿por qué a mí?” al “¿para qué?”. Encontró en el amor de su madre, su comunidad y la fe, las herramientas para empezar a sanar. A pesar de los pronósticos médicos que aseguraban que viviría en estado vegetal o totalmente dependiente, hoy es independiente, maneja su auto, hace crossfit adaptado y ha corrido la media maratón de Miami cuatro veces en silla de ruedas. Pero eso no es todo. Sabrina también decidió estudiar comunicación y administración, se certificó en logoterapia y hoy es conferencista, escritora, creadora de contenido y conductora del podcast "Así lo vivo yo", donde comparte su historia y las de otros que, como ella, han transformado la adversidad en propósito. Este episodio es una invitación a dejar de resistirte al cambio, a enfocarte en lo que sí tienes y a reconocer el poder que hay en servir a otros. Como ella dice, “la gratitud me salvó”. Y esa fue una de las lecciones más potentes de esta conversación: cuando agradeces lo que tienes, dejas de enfocarte en lo que te falta. Gracias, Sabrina, por recordarnos el poder de la resiliencia y por vivir tu vida en defensa propia. ✨ Hay momentos que te cambian para siempre...Y este retiro puede ser uno de ellos.
