This episode is going to shift how you think about success, abundance, and where you belong. I'm sitting down with my vecina, Rebecca Gitana Torres, a spiritual guide who rematriated to Puerto Rico after realizing the American Dream was never meant for people like us. We're talking about what holistic abundance actually means—and spoiler alert, it has nothing to do with your bank account or where you live.

Rebecca shares her journey from working a city job in the Bronx to creating “transformation cocoons” in Puerto Rico, and why so many of us have been taught the colonial lie that we need to leave our homelands to find abundance. We talk about the generational programming that keeps us chasing external validation, why you need to stop clinging to old identities and relationships, and how to tap into your magnetic energy no matter where you are. If you've been feeling stuck, unfulfilled, or like you're chasing someone else's version of success, this episode is going to give you permission to redefine everything.
