E49: Life is so short: Haz Las Cosas Que Quieres Hacer. Honoring Gabriela Gonzalez

What if today was your last ordinary day?

I didn’t plan this episode. I recorded it on a walk, with helicopters, dogs, and background noise. Because perfection didn’t matter anymore.

After learning that a 20-year-old first-gen Latina I once mentored passed away in a tragic accident, I couldn’t keep operating like life is guaranteed.

In this deeply vulnerable episode, I share:

The shock of unexpected loss
How being first-gen often makes us delay joy for “later”
Why aging is a privilege not everyone receives
The spiritual perspective on death and life missions
How to wake up to the magic of your everyday life

As first-gen Latinas, we carry pressure. Responsibility. Big dreams. But we are also mortal. And we deserve to live now, not just survive for the future.

This is your reminder, diosa. You are a statistical miracle.Your voice matters. Your time is sacred.

Be kind. Be bold. Be present.And stop waiting for permission to live.
