Meet Rosa
Hola Mujeres,
I am a bilingual therapist and a Financial Fitness Coach (FFC). I have a strong passion for personal finance and mental health. I grew up in a single parent working class household in the Nickerson Gardens Housing Projects in Watts, CA. Until this day, I cannot fathom how mami was able to raise 3 children with an income of less than $18k. Even though money was never a topic of conversation amongst my siblings, let alone my mother, I knew we were struggling. All my life I cursed at money and felt like there was never enough. I lost count of how many times I felt defeated, hopeless, angry, and sad because of money. It wasn’t until my money journey in 2018 that I kicked my scarcity mindset to the curb and accepted abundance into my life. Now, I rejoice and welcome where I am financially.
Through my experience, I realized I wanted to help other Black Indigenous Women of Color (BIWOC) with personal finance. In 2021 I decided to create a coaching platform for BIWOC to build a strong relationship with their money without feeling shame about their past money decisions.
I want you to know that you are not alone. Once you focus on your money and personal growth, money and opportunities will begin to flow into your life.
My Approach
I strongly believe that money is connected to energy; and that the messages we tell ourselves about money can either hurt us physically, emotionally and spiritually or they can empower us.
I want to create a partnership with you where we can talk about money without attaching any kind of shame to it. I want us to embark on this healing and money journey together and come up with financial goals that are aligned with your values and your corazon. This may include developing an abundance mindset, paying off debt, saving for an emergency fund, budgeting, and/or achieving your dreams of financial freedom.
