Life isn’t just about struggling to live and sacrificing to advance your career. It’s about enjoying ourselves, connecting with each other, and using our money to invest in something incredible! It’s time to take back our power and live the lives we know we should be living. And we can start by listening to Arielle’s incredible story for inspiration.    Arielle Diaz is a Peabody and GLAAD-nominated TV Writer-Producer with credits on GENTEFIED (Netflix), With Love (Prime Video), The Last Man on Earth (FOX), etc. She is a wellbeing advocate and passionate about beauty, ancestral reclamation, and exploring the intersection of wellness, heritage, and storytelling. Arielle mentors and occasionally teaches the art and business of television with The Gotham Institute, and is beginning her journey as an angel investor in clean beauty and wellness consumer brands. She began her career at Google before transitioning into television. Fun fact: Arielle is a neuro-spicy mystic, and her current hyper-fixation is fairies and gnomes—decorating her home altar with all things whimsical and enchanted. It might change next month, but for now, she’s living in a bit of magic.   In this week’s episode, Arielle shares how she left the cutthroat environment of Hollywood screenwriting when she listened to her intuition and reconnected with her ancestors in Mexico. The trip allowed her to follow her curiosity, which in turn led to her finding solutions to her chronic illness, finding the connection she was seeking, and meeting her future mentor. Tune in to this week’s episode to hear how she connected with her ancestors and connected with her highest self.  Follow Arielle on: Instagram: @she.is.that LinkedIn: @ariellediaz   Follow Erika on: Instagram @‌theerikacruzTikTok @‌theerikacruzLinkedIn Website: http://www.theerikacruz.com How to work with Erika: Join the waitlist for the Courage Driven Latina program here.
