Though I’m in my early 20s, the history of relational trauma in my family lineage coupled with my own father’s abuse and abandonment, has instilled in me a self-awareness and sensitivity to emotions from a young age. I was born in México and raised in Compton, a community where I didn’t have many mentors or influences that pointed me in the direction of emotional healing work. Still, I went on to publish The Energized Self: A Journey to Interconnected Healing, a book that is half memoir and half conversations with trauma survivors at the age of 22. This same year I began my public speaking journey and my master’s program to become a Marriage and Family Therapist.As I find myself rising to fulfill my soul’s calling today, I am still in the same location where conversations like the ones had in this podcast aren’t common. I’m also faced with a myriad of economic and social challenges that I know listeners will relate to. My goal is that Heart to Heart Podcast One on One / Next Level Studios In the Heart to Heart Podcast, we talk to some of our favorite & most interesting people in the entertainment industry so you can feel empowered and learn that even in the most challenging of industries, where there’s a will there’s a way.Whether you’re an actor, a writer, a casting director, a talent rep, or just someone interested in the behind the scene happenings of the entertainment industry, this podcast will have something for you. NOW, this isn’t just another How To podcast for actors. Plenty of those shows already exist.
