New year. New word. Same real, unfiltered me.
 In this episode, Vanessa reflects on heartbreak, grief, missed flights, mom guilt, starting over, and why even your messiest moments are still part of your magic. This is about choosing intention over perfection and trusting that everything really does happen for a reason—even the hot mess chapters.If this episode hits, follow Unicorns Do Exist and share it with someone who needs permission to begin again.This episode is sponsored by PricklyBerry, an angel number clothing brand reminding you that the universe is always speaking—if you’re paying attention.

Vanessa is a lot of things: a first-generation Latina, a single mom, a life coach, and someone who’s learned that healing isn't a quiet, polite process. In Unicorns Do Exist, she brings all those identities to the microphone, creating a space that feels like a candid conversation with a close friend who’s been through it. You’ll hear her break down stigmas around mental health and share stories of heartbreak not as endings, but as turning points. The real talk here is grounded in the belief that owning every part of your journey-the messy, the painful, the glorious-is where true transformation begins. This podcast is a blend of personal journal, cultural commentary, and coaching sessions, all woven together with what she calls 'cheesemé'-that perfect mix of heartfelt cheese and spicy truth. Episodes dive into the realities of building a life on your own terms, especially for those who’ve ever felt marginalized or told they were "too much." It’s about finding the high vibes without bypassing the hard work, and the glow-up that comes from radical self-acceptance. Tuning in, you’re not just getting advice; you’re getting a companion for the ride, a reminder that your unique magic isn't just a fantasy-it's your real, undeniable power waiting to be claimed.
