The Difference Between Life Coaching & Therapy, Episode 246

It's mental health awareness month so we want to shed light on the importance of mental health services and support.

Better yet, there's so much growth that happens when working with both a life coach AND a therapist!

Don't miss this episode if you're interested in learning the difference between both experiences and what you should consider when embarking on a relationship with therapists, coaches, or professional mentors!

Breast Cancer & Early Detection with Special Guest, Leyna Topete of Impromptu Beauty, Episode 245

Welcome to another episode of the Level Up Latina podcast. Today we have Leyna Topete back on the show. Leyna was our guest about 3 years ago (for episode 90) and appeared to tell us all about her lifestyle brand, Impromptu. A brand we've grown to LOVE!

In that show, Leyna also told us about HERToo, the nonprofit she founded to raise funds to help women with the cost of breast cancer treatment (in honor of her mom). Leyna is back today because she wanted to share something very personal in her life that she believes all women should hear about.

This is a CANNOT-MISS show. With cancer diagnoses on the rise and impacting women younger and younger this show is full of practical advice to manage everything from pre-cancer screening to treatment. 

IMPORTANT REMINDER: these are stories shared from lived experience and no one on today's show is an actual medical professional. Please see your doctor for specific questions on cancer diagnoses and treatments. We also do not endorse any of the resources shared by our guest, but for ease of listening include some here: Prolon 5 Day Fast and Dr. John Link Author of The Breast Cancer Survival Manual.

For more info. on Leyna and the incredible work she does, please visit, HERtoo (hertoobreastcancer.org) or Impromptu Beauty (https://www.impromptu.life).

^{One final note, while we always do our best to ensure background noises are kept to a minimum, today's show was recorded in a bustling home (filled with love) in Puerto Rico... we hope you'll embrace the charm of the real-word "melodies" working their way through your speakers during this VERY IMPORTANT podcast episode & subject matter.}
