New PR ‼️

5 plates of 45 lbs + 15 lbs on each side on my single-leg press. 2 sets of 6–8 reps.

I’m so proud of myself. I share these moments to celebrate and honor my hard work, dedication, discipline, and consistency. I am my own cheerleader😊🙌🏾

Don’t wait for others to challenge you, celebrate you, or cheer for you. Learn to do that for yourself so your worth is not dependent on external validation.

We all love support. We all want to be seen, honored, validated, and affirmed. It feels good. But never rely solely on others to give you what you must first learn to give yourself🥰

Celebrate yourself loudly and root for yourself fiercely. Acuérdate que eres una chingona y las chingonas también chillan and have a tender heart. Never ever apologize for your softeners. We can be soft, strong and fierce🔥💪🏽

I believe in you❤️

“Still Blooming” is one of the poems in A poem to remind you that growth, healing, and becoming are ongoing.

I’m a doctor, not the medical kind, but a Ph.D. Sociologist.

I’ve always known I wanted to help people and make society better. When I found sociology, I didn’t just choose a major, I fell in love❤️ It gave me the language and tools to understand the deeper forces shaping our lives and, more importantly, the possibility of change.

I analyze the structures, institutions, and ideologies that influence how we live, love, eat, work, and move through the world.

I’m not the kind of doctor who writes prescriptions, I diagnose systemic racism, patriarchy, capitalism, inequality, and the social conditions that impact our everyday lives.

I study society so we can transform it and build something better🥰

Thanks amiga for the inspiration for this reel

From inner child healing to ancestral connection, this collection speaks to anyone who has ever felt too much, too loud, or not enough, and is ready to reclaim their voice.
📖✨❤️‍🔥
Fifty percent of this book’s proceeds support the Mariposa Rising Scholarship, an endowed scholarship for undocumented students transferring from Hartnell College to the university. Through poetry, community healing becomes collective healing

Big News: I’m going to Sweden & Finland this month as part of a prestigious international faculty development program!

I’ve wanted to study abroad since undergrad. When my father passed away, everything changed. I had to put several academic dreams on hold. Even in grad school, studying abroad felt out of reach.

Now, years later—as a first-gen student turned first-gen professor—I’m fulfilling that dream. And I’m doing it as a sociologist from a community college, proudly representing my comunidad in Monterey County.

This will be my first time ever traveling to Europe. I’m embarrassed saying this but I think of my students—many of whom come from working-class, immigrant backgrounds like I do. We carry dreams that take longer to reach. And that’s okay.

These opportunities don’t just show up. I’ve have to seek them out, pitch myself, and remind people that a Mexican immigrant community college sociology professor is an asset!

I live and work in an agricultural, working-class region filled with brilliant immigrants, farmworkers, artists, entrepreneurs, organizers, educators, etc. Dreaming big here is beautiful—but it’s hard. Getting into this program felt surreal. But securing funding? Even harder.

I cried—multiple times & almost lost hope. I applied everywhere. Reached out to institutions, even a local bank. For a moment, it felt like the dream would crumble—not because of merit, but because of lack of money.

But I didn’t give up. After weeks of hustle, I secured the funding. I’m going…y todavía no lo puedo creer!…Pinch me!!

To my students and anyone reading this: There is no deadline for your dreams. You’re not too late. You’re not asking for too much. You are not dreaming too big. You do belong in higher education—even if others don’t believe in you, I do.
