Serial entrepreneur and childfree Latino Luis Octavio has something to tell you about taking risks. He gives us the play-by-play of what it took to go from being a closeted experiential marketer to launching multiple companies and brands while fully embracing who he is as DI Güey.
Take a tiny risk and attend DI Güey University with us in this episode as Luis throws out numerous pearls of wisdom like:
letting go of the need to be "perfect"
waiting for a "special occasion"
finding joy in a 9-5 life
how not having kids is not the end of your life
taking tiny risks now is an antidote to regret later

LVMC News
We’re moving!
The plan is to move to Puerto Rico in the next few months. If you’ve ever experienced a cross-country move, you might know how complicated that can be. Add a language barrier, and we’re in for a real treat!
What does that mean for you? More Spanglish in the podcast! And hopefully a new depth to the mission of dismantling cultural bullshit while actively living in said culture.
That can also mean that new episodes might pause for a short while as we get settled and improve our Spanish. In fact, I have a whole episode on surprising facts about Puerto Rico coming out next, so stay tuned for that.
In the meantime, I’m asking you for a favor. While episodes might pause, this newsletter will not. In fact, my goal is to grow the readership to at least 100 people this year—and you can help with that!

Because everyone you know should enjoy a burrito and unlearn the toxic cultural bullshit we all grew up with. 🌯🌯🌯
