Her timing could have been better, because just weeks later, the pandemic hit and every production she had committed to being a part of shut down.Like so many others at that time, Andrea became unemployed overnight and felt anxious and overwhelmed by the state of the world. So, she turned to art as a way to make sense of it all. Andrea drew and drew, and eventually started sharing her art via ‘dreasdoodles’ on Instagram.Within months, Andrea’s work started to go viral, catching the attention of authors, agents, and even a few celebrities.

Listeners, we're back this week with Linda García. Linda Garcia CEO, The Chosen Hundred LLC + Founder, In Luz We Trust.A Cali native and proud Latina, Linda Garcia spent 17 years working in the TV and film industry helping well-recognized TV networks, movie studios and streaming services build programming for the U.S. Hispanic market. Despite enjoying the work, Linda knew there was more to life than working to make someone else rich. Eventually, she took the knowledge she’d gained and used it to launch the Let There Be Luz podcast: a weekly podcast aimed to channel one’s spiritual journey, which Linda concluded at its 101st episode. In 2019, after relocating to Dallas, Linda’s spiritual journey led her to what she considers her life’s purpose: to help the Latinx community heal the generational money wounds that prevent them from achieving wealth. In 2020, at the height of the pandemic, Linda launched her first stock market course for beginners and created a rapidly growing community of Latinx investors on Patreon and Instagram known as In Luz We Trust. Today Linda is a published children’s book author, a self-made business owner, and a guiding Luz for thousands of BIPOC who are looking to break free from limiting and toxic money mentalities. Linda’s book, ‘Wealth Warrior’, is set to be released in April 2023. In Luz We Trust is an experience-led online community with courses that address limiting beliefs prevalent in communities of color, with a step-by-step component that simplifies the stock market, helping to navigate fears that are tied to our upbringing. Through this conversation, we hope to demystify money and investing, help identify common money wounds we subconsciously hold, gain clarity, and move towards taking action in investing.During this episode we talked about:04:41 - Catching up since her last visit07:11 - “This is what manifesting is”08:55 - Designing the cover and manifesting the book11:55 - The moments of desire and inspiration12:57 - “Listen to the inspiration”13:11 - Connecting inspiration to her current work14:03 - “On the other side of my fear is exactly what I’m looking for”15:58 - Her tool to navigating fear21:27 - “You always have an option”22:38 - Transitioning to a different kind of work24:08 - “I understood that money is just thoughts”28:03 - Survivor’s guilt29:08 - Surpassing survival mode32:22 - “I built it all in a house of honesty”40:08 - The hardest part of writing the book40:14 - Questioning and finding challenges41:59 - “Quit for the day and come back tomorrow”42:33 - Visibility46:18 - Deconstructing practices Follow Linda on all things social:InstagramIn Luz We Trust InstagramIn Luz We Trust WebsitePREORDER WEALTH WARRIOR: Barnes & Noble | Amazon* | Target | Bookshop**Please note, this is an affiliate link and your purchases allow me to get some coins in return of using my link.

Since 2016 Saskia has grown Fresh Bellies into a national disruptor with Fresh Bellies being ranked among the top 5 natural toddler snacks in the country. Currently the snacks are sold in 5,000 stores throughout the U.S., including retail giants like Target, Sprouts, Walmart and Whole Foods.
