This episode is an honest one.

We’re talking about what’s happening in the United States right now, why it feels so heavy, and why this moment isn’t new — it’s just finally being seen. And instead of spiraling into fear or numbness, we’re having an honest conversation about choice: the meaning we give things, the perspective we live from, and the strength we’re being called into right now.

I share why pain is a catalyst, not a dead end — and why more than ever, we can’t afford to ignore what’s happening, or let it destroy us. Awareness matters. Standing up for one another matters. Becoming mentally, emotionally, and physically stronger matters.

We also talk about how precious life actually is — and how you can only see what you’re willing to open yourself to. Your brain is trained to prove itself right, which is why women who believe “all the good ones are gone” somehow keep ending up with the same version of That Bad Man over and over again. Not because it’s true — but because perception shapes reality.

This episode is about:

• Choosing meaning instead of fear
• Growth instead of despair
• Awareness without losing your humanity
• Strength without becoming hardened
• And why hate always comes from self-hate

If the world feels overwhelming right now, this conversation will ground you — not by pretending things are fine, but by reminding you that you still have power, choice, and responsibility in how you move forward.

🎧 Listen now and choose to see differently — because what you focus on is what you create.

Why do so many people want passion, attraction, and a soft feminine partner… without doing the work to lead, grow, or evolve?

In this episode of Unicorns Do Exist, Vanessa gets real (and a little spicy) about lazy energy in relationships—and why attraction dies when there’s no drive, no purpose, and no personal growth. We’re talking masculine and feminine energy, emotional leadership, physical vitality, and why simply having a job is not the same as being a high-value partner.

Using insights from Esther Perel and Hold Me Tight by Sue Johnson, this episode breaks down what actually creates desire, polarity, and safety in modern relationships—whether you identify with masculine or feminine energy.

This is not a man-bashing episode.
This is a wake-up call.

If you’ve ever felt turned off by lack of ambition, uninspired by emotional laziness, or frustrated trying to soften when there’s nothing to lean into—this conversation will hit home.

✨ Expect topics like:

• Masculine vs feminine energy in relationships
• Why attraction requires movement, growth, and leadership
• Emotional safety, polarity, and desire
• Why driven people don’t stay “broke” (in any sense of the word)

• How laziness kills intimacy—physically, mentally, and emotionally

🦄 Unicorns do exist… but they don’t settle for stagnant energy.

In this episode of Unicorns Do Exist, Vanessa gets radically honest about why she’s dating without intention—and why it’s been the healthiest decision she’s ever made.

This is a deep, unfiltered conversation about love, motherhood, freedom, cultural conditioning, divorce glow-ups, and why rushing into relationships out of fear creates more suffering than solitude ever could. Vanessa unpacks how women—especially in the Hispanic community—are taught to endure, sacrifice, and follow timelines that were never questioned.

Drawing from The Mastery of Love by Don Miguel Ruiz and her own lived experience as a mother navigating dating, co-parenting, and self-discovery, this episode challenges everything we’ve been told about marriage, kids, and “doing life right.”

⚠️ Fair warning: once you see it, you can’t unsee it.

🎧 Listen to the end for a perspective on heartbreak, loneliness, and why choosing yourself first isn’t selfish—it’s necessary.
