✨ Honored to be featured in MetroPlusHealth’s Voices of Impact series for their 40th anniversary. 🎥

I poured my heart into sharing my origin story, from my Nuyorican roots to the journey of transforming my passion into a purposeful career. I opened up about building The Progress Goddess from the ground up, creating a brand centered on mental health advocacy, mentorship, and community for generational cycle breakers.
For 2 hours in an intimate setting, just myself and the incredible producers who provided a welcoming safe space for me to open up. 

In this city of dreamers and doers, as a New Yorker born, raised, and based, I’m particularly proud to add this project to my portfolio and resume, a meaningful acknowledgment of my journey. Speaking openly about mental health, resilience, and the power of using your voice to inspire others on such a public platform was deeply fulfilling. 

Grateful to celebrate the grit, diversity, and heart of New Yorkers alongside metroplushealth 

🎙️If you’re looking for someone to speak on personal development, mental health, or turning your story into impact, I’m open to collaborations, panels, and events. Let’s work together! 🙏🏽
