I’ve listened to two episodes, and Pam is a great evolution to the Latino people!

I got connected to you when I listened to Jen Hemphill, Her Dinero Matters. and you gave some incredible insight as to how our minds works that you had me at “brain!”

This episode, where you had Liz, from las comadres. Liz. Also inspired me and furthermore, I want to connect with her because my daughter, Juliana, who is just 8 tiny years old, was meeting her her teacher about starting a saver environment through not littering, using resources such as reusable bag instead of plastic bags. And I really want Juliana’s voice to be heard!
I really am enjoying your podcasts and they give me inspiration & motivation to help me and Juliana grow… thank you.

Pam is wonderful and extremelly welcoming!

I was recently a guest on the podcast after learning about her great podcast! The entire process was extremelly well thought out and her team provided all the support needed to prepare for the episode. Her podcast is amazing as she interviews individuals with different backgrounds and does a great job with her questions while making the guest feel at home. I highly recommend listening to her podcast as you’ll learn how so many people from different cultures have been succeeding in their career despite their past.

Love this podcast!

Pam is so down to earth and low key love her voice. Her questions to guests always take a pleasant turn and it brings out knowledge but also personality from them. Love how varied each guest is too, they’re all so inspiring! 🫶🏼
