In this episode, I interview one of my bestfriends Adriana. I’ve known Adriana since highschool and the was always a very caring and loving person. It was clear for those of us who were closest to her that in the past few years, she struggled with anxiety and depression. We’ve all been there in the position where we care for a loved one so much but we don’t know how to help them and sometimes we can’t. Each and everyone of us has a unique journey, which we all have to experience at our own pace. In the podcast, Adriana open up about taking time for herself, her journey of self-love, and powering through certain struggles.

I interview bestfriends Suly and Jay - two Latinas of Dominican and Salvadorian. This is the first time I had two guest on the podcast - two really dope, hard-working, beautiful, and inspiring women. We talk about their travel experiences, the importance of seeing the world, and being exposed to cultures so different from ours. They also give insight on how they navigate conversations with their own family about traveling. Coming from immigrant households provides a different perspective on what our parents see for us. But most importantly, Amiga Goals is all about empowering other females to travel the world. We are seeing a shift nowadays, where females are no longer living based on the stereotypes and norms that society has for us. More and more females are traveling the world, both alone and with their friends, sharing their experiences, and are feeling empowered.

This interview with Jessica aka Messica aka Queen Chonga herself was so FUN. Sometimes you have to open a bottle of wine (or in our case on this episode, 2 bottles of wine) and get really candid with a girlfriend. In this episode we talk about how Jess goes from being a corporate #BOSSBAE to being Burlesque Dancer. We chat about traveling, dating, family dynamics, gender stereotypes, and how to not limit yourself! It was absolutely an empowering and refreshing conversation to talk to someone who encourages, promotes, and supports women being sexual beings and practicing selfishness and confidence.

This was very intimate conversation with my friend Wynette. She starts to tell us about her journey of becoming an American citizen and the different struggles she faced being born in India and growing up in New York. Even though she came here at such a young age it wasn’t until that moment she earned her citizenship, she told herself ‘I can’t believe I’m here, finally’. Just by listening to her you will already be able to tell the type of energy this amazing woman has! I’ve never met a more passion person about nursing.

Welcome back to Season 2 of the Weekly Hustle podcast! I (your host Jenn) am so excited to be podcasting again. It has been over three months since the last episode of season 1 was released and so much has happened in life since then. In this episode, I try give a little life update, share some stats from season 1, remind people of my mission, give some hints on season 2, and I say thank you! We just ended a weekend full of giving thanks and we should continue to practice that ‘gratitude attitude’ every single day. Being thankful for all that you have in this very moment, I believe, is the key to success. Recognizing where you are and how far you’ve come in life, despite everything that’s happened to you in the past, is your reminder that you will reach the dreams you have for yourself right now. I want to thank every single one of my listeners for continuing to support this podcast each week. It means the world to me when you guys tell me how much you love the podcast and the fact that you can relate to the stories people tell. I want to thank every single person I interviewed from season 1 for allowing me to share your story, for allowing me to get to know you on a deeper level, for trusting me with your dreams and aspirations, and for believing in me and the mission of this podcast. Lastly, for those of you who doubted me and have made negative comments about my weekly hustle - thank u, next. Please leave a review and let me know what you think!

Couldn’t think of a of a specific title for this episode and there isn’t much to say about my interview with Terrell other than you HAVE TO listen.

This episode was pretty life changing for me I learned so much from Michelle, more than she even realizes. First off, this was our first time meeting in person and I first knew of her when I listened to the Let Me Talk podcast (Linked below Episode 39: "I am sort of a Mumble Rap Apologist..."). She killed it on that podcast and as soon as I heard it I told Mark I needed to meet her. So last week we met up and I felt like she was already part of my family. This Filipino Guyanese bad ass babe reminds me so much of myself and our lives are almost parallel. We chat about the importance of networking, saying yes to every job, always delivering the best customer service because you never know who you may come across, and how she picked shoes out for Lebron James! But probably the biggest takeaways from this podcast is to (1) always give back to those who are less fortunate no matter how hard you worked and (2) ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS trust your intuition.
