Abuelito, I miss you every day. There is so much more I wish we could have talked about. It’s opening day. I wish you were here so we could visit and go to a game together. Life is amazing and you can learn so much along the way. People die but life goes on. You will always have their memories to hang on to. Now, como decías siempre tu abuelito, play ball!!!!

If you’re anything like me, your planner makes or breaks your productivity. Having a yearly and monthly calendar, to-do list, and planning space at your fingertips helps you to feel in control over life’s chaos. Think of a planner as a centralized area for all of your organizational needs. I am OBSESSED with planners and I think you should be too! The planners I love the most are the ones that offer more than a calendar. My goal with this post is to equip you with space to dream, outline goals, and plan this next year with purpose so you can achieve success!

But, my mom is sooooo much more than that. She truly is my number one role model…the true definition of a #GirlBoss. She is from Reynosa, Tamaulipas, Mexico. She immigrated to the United States at the age of 13. She was able to overcome adversity and graduate college despite English being her second language. She went on to become the first woman and first Latina President/CEO of Border Federal Credit Union in Del Rio, TX. This past April, she was awarded the Cornerstone Credit Union League Professional of the Year Award. I took some days ff from work so I could make it to the awards ceremony. My mom has always been there for me, so I wanted to be there for her. I am sooooo fortunate to have my as a mentor, friend, and mom! She is such an inspiration to me. She inspires me and motivates me to be better and greater. Her and my dad came to the United States to give my siblings and I a better life. And I am sooooo proud of my mom and so proud to be her daughter.

It’s easy to post motivational pictures on Instagram. It’s easy to be THAT GIRL behind a computer screen. I strive to make my family, friends, and other women feel empowered. I know how hard it is to be self conscious and, sometimes, getting a little push from someone can make all the difference.

I was on the plane getting ready to take off to Last Vegas this past November. One of my very best friends, Wendy, was sitting next to me. She was listening to something on her phone and seemed super into it. I assumed it was a song that she really liked, so I decided to […]

Last year, my boyfriend and I decided to start having an annual posada at our place. This year it will be the last posada we have in an apartment before we move into a house. I want to make it an extra special holiday party because of this, so I decided to make mole for my first time for the party.
But, of course, I wanted to test it out first before then. I am so excited because it actually came out AMAZING!! And it is a super simple recipe that anyone could follow and make using a slow cooker.
