Sobre este podcast
Unedited conversations about sovereignty: at work, in the body, and in life.
I'm Raquel, a first-generation Salvadoran American, cacao maker, and income strategist in Northern Virginia, and the creator of the 3P Method: Purpose, Presence, Prosperity. This is where I think out loud about career transitions, income design, cacao as ancestral plant medicine, ritual, and what it means to build a life without extraction.
Maybe you're leaving a system that doesn't fit. Maybe you're curious about cacao. Maybe you're the first in your family to figure this out. Wherever you're coming from, you're welcome here.
Raw, unscripted, and made for the ones who are still figuring it out. Hit follow, and take your next step without panic.
