”What Is Wrong With Me?” A heartfelt chat with Victoria Garcia 🍒

”What Is Wrong With Me?” if you have ever asked yourself this question you're just like us. My dear friend Victoria Garcia opened her heart to give us a glimpse of her discovery and subsequent treatment of Stage 4 Colecteral Cancer. This episode is designed to give you a pause in your daily life and rethink the way you live and view your medical and mental care.  Our conversation leads us to ponder our existence in this world, and how our relentless pursuit of success leads us to moments of reckoning. As she states, the thing about cancer is that it doesn't just take your life as in "you die." First, it steals away everything you know your life to be and consequently to rely on help with even the smallest things. Victoria tells us how this diagnosis has impacted her blooming photography business, and how she's meeting every challenge with positivity and a resolute mindset.  A powerful episode on thriving despite the shadow of cancer.  Book a Photography session with Victoria here: https://www.victoriagarciastudios.com/ Follow her @victoriagarciastudios Find and Follow our Sponsors here:  CycleBar West U westu@cyclebar.com @cyclebarwestu AVS Concepts www.avschouston.com @avsc_htx The Vanguard Agency www.vanguardagencyllc.com @vanguardagency Skin Care Expert Natalia Castille 713-799-9999 ext. 124 @nataliacastille  Join our Vibes Insider Community: a community of supporters and doers! https://tbbyalicia.com/collections/vibes-global-insiders Download our Online Courses: https://tbbyalicia.com/collections/learn Create Content with us as we showcase Your Signature Style: https://tbbyalicia.com/collections/services Created by Alicia A.

Meet our go-to Insurance Agent Humberto Garcia ☎️

This week we are introducing one of our sponsors the Vanguard Agency.   In 2004 Humberto Garcia started as an Insurance Agent.  Right away, he saw a need in his community that was not being met. There was a lack of education and understanding of what insurance was and the value that it could bring to families and businesses. It is with that hope to educate that we bring you this chat.  This episode includes home and auto insurance tips such as: When in a car accident, what’s the best thing to do when there is a dispute, and who is at fault? Are you required to take the vehicle to the carrier's body shop? When should you get full coverage on a vehicle?  When we have teenagers what is the best policy to get and what does it cover?  Follow Humberto @vanguardagency or call him at 281-453-8770 This month in honor of Father's Day we are raising funds to donate 50 books to The Panamerican Roundtable of Houston (PART)- Latina Scholarship Fund recipients and their families.  Please help support our goal of donating them by June 30.  You can donate here Book Donation Find and Follow our Sponsors here:  CycleBar West U westu@cyclebar.com @cyclebarwestu AVS Concepts www.avschouston.com @avsc_htx The Vanguard Agency www.vanguardagencyllc.com @vanguardagency Skin Care Expert Natalia Castille 713-799-9999 ext. 124 @nataliacastille  Join our Vibes Insider Community: a community of supporters and doers! https://tbbyalicia.com/collections/vibes-global-insiders Download our Online Courses: https://tbbyalicia.com/collections/learn Create Content with us as we showcase Your Signature Style: https://tbbyalicia.com/collections/services Created by Alicia A.

Tips from ✌🏼 BIG BIG Manifestors ✨

At the age of 18, I learned how to manifest the things I wanted.  It was then that I put a few lessons to practice and achieved those things I manifested.  I married the man of my life now 22 years strong, I created a career for myself that I had only dreamed of and I've now visited almost 100 countries all over the world.  I'm joined in this episode by my friend, Kathleen Navarro also a Master Manifestor.  Together we go through some of the manifesting strategies that have worked for us and why you may be doing it all wrong.   Kathleen Navarro is a Miami and Houston-based lifestyle and beauty digital creator. She is a strong mental and sexual health advocate and a proud Latina!
