Very Caliente
Hosts:
Pablo Alsina & Jennie López
Summary
Jules Arballo is an Arizona native, a desert girl who was always the free bird of the family and never did pick one lane. In the spring of 2019 she audited her life, found she was very unhappy, and started writing monthly intentions across five areas: health, business, finance, relationships and self. Seven journals stacked on the table every morning became one, and the Intentions Journal was born. She published her first book in 2015, ran a coffee shop with her mom for six years, and now runs Impact Strategy Solutions and an impact-driven coffee club for women entrepreneurs in the valley. On being stuck: you can choose to stay in it or you can choose to move through it.
