Your Gifts Lie In Your Imperfections

What would you do if you knew you couldn't fail?


In this episode, I'm joined by the amazing Dr. Veronica Estrada, a Mother, College Professor, Researcher, Scholar, Social Justice Advocate, and an endless source of inspiration for hundreds of students. 


We had a fantastic conversation about limiting beliefs, how often social and cultural barriers get in our way to progress, and the inner work needed to change our mindset from victim to victor. Dr. Estrada shared bits of her rough childhood, her gratitude for those who believed and bet on her, and how she turned the "Dr. Estrada syndrome" into the "Dr. Estrada effect."


Plus, we delve into her hero's journey, how she overcame her learning disabilities, the abuse during her childhood, and so much more. 


Tune into episode 3 of Become Famous For What You Do, learn how to connect with your gifts, and turn your wounds into a catalyst for success.
