Today I turn 42, and honestly, I can’t believe how fast time has flown. I still feel 24 in my heart, but this last year—my 41st trip around the sun—has taught me more than any other.
In this special birthday episode of The Confidence Chronicles, I’m opening my heart and sharing what this past year has brought up—about business, motherhood, money, aging, and the beauty of slowing down.
If you’re a woman navigating change, growth, or just life in the messy middle, this one’s for you.
🎙️ What I Share in This Episode:
- The surprising way 41 felt like seven years in one
- Why success isn’t just about “getting what you want”
- What 2024 taught me about support, money, and letting go
- How I’m learning to slow time with my kids (and why it makes me cry)
- The shift from hustle to presence
- What I’m calling in at 42—and what I’m leaving behind
🌪️ 2024 Was the Year of Chaos and Clarity
The beginning of 2024 hit like a storm.
We were prepping for TEDx. I was finishing Becoming Magnetic with Penguin. My mom got sick. We had to pack up her house with our kids in tow. And all while running a business, being a wife, and holding everything together.
It was the year I learned to manage intensity without losing myself.
It was also the year I got re-schooled on money—how to hold it, lose it, invest it, and not make it mean everything.
And it was the year I felt the least supported by my team… which became the gift that forced me to realign, recalibrate, and call my power back.
👩👦 My Children Are Growing and So Am I
The most emotional part of 41 was noticing how fast my boys are growing up.
From bedtime stories to boundaries on kisses at school drop-off—this year reminded me that motherhood is a series of tiny goodbyes if you’re not paying attention.
I made a promise this year:
✨ Be present.
✨ Stare at their faces.
✨ Don’t miss the magic in the mundane.
If you’re a mama navigating this too, I see you.
🧘🏽♀️ Slowing Down While Showing Up
This was also the year I let go of alcohol. The year I prioritized breathwork. The year I decided to trust more deeply—even when things didn’t make sense.
I spent a year without a business mentor, but I didn’t stop learning. Instead, I got into therapy. I healed. I peeled back the layers.
This birthday, I’m not focused on doing more.
I’m focused on doing what matters—better.
🔮 What I’m Calling In for 42
✨ More slowness in my nervous system
✨ More depth in my leadership
✨ More visibility and stage time in the US (Tony Robbins, I’m coming!)
✨ More retreats for deep, soulful transformation
✨ More Latinas rising with me in Australia and beyond
I’m bringing The Queen’s Table to the USA.
I’m speaking on global stages.
And I’m continuing to hold space for women like you to rise—without rushing or pretending
✨ Final Thoughts: Time Is the Real Currency
I don’t want “just fine.” I don’t want okay.
I want extraordinary, joyful, aligned, powerful living.
That’s what 42 is about for me.
And if you’re nodding your head right now, if any part of this resonates, I want you to ask yourself:
Where are you leaking your focus?
What is it time to release?
What’s possible when you slow down and tune back in?
