You Wanna Do What?! - New Episode!
Creating a Childfree Legacy with Monica Rivera
As promised, part 2 of Monica Rivera’s story follows quickly on the heels of last week’s episode. But this is still a bi-weekly (bi-monthly?) show that comes out every other Tuesday.
Following up from the last episode about how Monica Rivera’s grief propelled her to become her own best friend, this time Monica tells us how her inner critic inspired her to start her own business coaching enterprise for women of color aptly named YOU WANNA DO WHAT?!
There's also the question many childfree Latinas grapple with—thanks to the toxic cultural habit that allows too many people to feel comfortably asking: what's your legacy if you aren't having children? First of all, that's a bingo AND a really narrow view of what legacy means.
Because of her early life experiences, Monica knows she'll never have children. But she will still leave a legacy that's equally as important to her, her chosen family, and her clients.
