Hi! I'm Beatriz and I'm an Entrepreneur Coach and Podcast Host

Issue 8 Hi Reader, As a professional baddie, I'm sure you've evolved to live much of your life making moves. By making moves I mean getting promoted, growing a family, starting a business or moving up that sweet career ladder. Honey, you're booked and you're busy. However, how often do you...simply stop? Stop to listen, Stop to feel, Stop to notice? Recently I was watching a new episode of Grey's Anatomy. Like many an episode-I was drying tears over my chicken salad. I often like to take a...

Issue 10 Hi there Amiga, I hope you've been having a wonderful week. Over the past two months I have been researching the phenomenon of Burnout. This has been due to the amazing opportunity (shout out to my supervisor Sofia Mendoza!) of giving a talk on this topic to the UCLA Medical Social Work staff working with oncology patients. I'm happy to report that the webinar went great and I had so much fun delivering it. Because I've learned so much about it, I'm compelled to write and deconstruct...

Issue 7 Hi There Reader, Last week I sent out a newsletter discussing what Burnout is. I talked about how to identify it and some practical ways you can begin to "come back to yourself" if you've lost yourself to burnout. This particular newsletter I want to continue this conversation and I want to do it by featuring a guest writer, Lorena Wade. Lorena is a Faith-Driven Serial Entrepreneur and Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach to name a few of her titles (she's a badass). She has a...

Issue 6 Hello there Reader, Lately I've been noticing something I don't know many of us are aware of. It's been happening slowly but invisibly and it has the potential to become dangerous. It's burnout. As a collective we're becoming more and more tired. We're feeling drained and exhausted and it seems to be something people are just accepting because it's "normal." And of course we're tired and exhausted! We're at war, this administration couldn't be more tyrannical and fascist (actually,...

Issue 5 Hola Amiga, Yesterday was the primary statewide elections here in CA. Not only did I fill out my ballot, but I was asked by my mom to fill out hers as well. As I was filling out her ballot, she naturally shared what she is looking for in a candidate and it made me realize that while we hold similar values, we also have opposing views on some issues. It got me thinking-how do we navigate family relationships that we value when they may hold opposing political views and stances? Sure,...

Issue 4 Hey There Reader, Happy Wednesday. Recently, my four-month-old baby has decided to sleep regress. This means he has "regressed" to waking up about 3 times during the night, making uninterrupted sleep impossible. I am tired! And here's what I've noticed. When I'm sleep-deprived, my body hurts, my mood tanks, and I lose motivation for even my most basic activities. Sleep is a must, amiga. It is part of rest because it is RESTorative — and rest is part of any healing journey. Think about...

Issue 3 Hi Reader, Last week I went to an appointment with the LA County Department of Health Services. It was basically an interview in front of an expert panel to see where they would place me in their scoring system of qualified and experienced workers. The night before, my inner critic was loud. I was convinced I would freeze, fail, and forget everything I knew. Instead, I received the highest possible score: 100. Come and read my new blog to learn how I scored the highest score of 100...

Issue 2 Hi Friend, Welcome to Issue 2 of Healing is a Journey newsletter. Over the past few months, I've been on a journey to acquire my clinical license. But I must admit, sometimes I wonder if I'm making the right choice by doing so. I've taken a lot of time thinking about if my LCSW is right for me and I've come to a very profound idea. The idea of pursuing impact vs. enjoying the present moment. If you've ever felt like you've been chasing impact but never actually feeling that impact,...

6/27/25 In this Newsletter ✍🏼 Blog: Your Routine Isn't Working Anymore. Here's Why That's A Good News. 🗓️ Free Event: Business and Life Update with Bea: July 3rd 5-6 PM PST. Your Routine Isn’t Working Anymore. Here’s Why That’s Good News. I thought I had it all planned out. Then my husband got laid off, I came back from three weeks in Malaysia completely discombobulated, and my carefully planned business launch fell apart. Suddenly, I couldn’t get back to my old rituals and routines and...

5/15/25 The Power of Doing Nothing Penang Hill in Penang, Malaysia The Power of Doing Nothing I recently took a trip to Malaysia. It feels like a second home by now—my husband is from there and his family lives in Malaysia, which is why we go frequently. The flight is long, about 22 hours if we go directly from LAX to Singapore and then to Malaysia. Depending on layovers, it can stretch beyond 24 hours. As I prepared for my trip, I packed my personal bag with my laptop, a book, downloaded...
