Despite her success, she's faced imposter syndrome.
This episode is a source of inspiration for those pursuing unconventional careers. Tune in to "Vida I Wish I Knew Then" to hear Deanna's inspiring journey and insights on navigating self-doubt while pursuing your passion.
Deanna Martin, a former high school teacher turned business owner, made a life-changing decision after years of juggling a demanding job and a growing family. Fueled by her determination, she chose to embark on a new journey despite her family's reservations. Her goal was to establish a business that accommodated her hectic schedule, which included caring for three
children and supporting her husband, an entrepreneur. Deanna was
determined to prove she could create the life she had always
dreamed of.
Today, as a virtual assistant serving wellness and education-based
entrepreneurs, Deanna's business, Patrona Virtual Solutions, thrives. She provides essential administrative support to help business owners flourish while maintaining her roles as a dedicated woman, wife, and mother – a vision she had held close to her heart.

In this week's episode of Vida, I Wish I Knew Then, Jess welcomes Erika Cruz, who shares her inspiring personal growth and transformation journey in becoming a life coach. Erika's story revolves around the common path of searching for clarity, experimenting with different paths, and ultimately embracing one's uniqueness and strengths.
Erika's coaching approach centers on seeing her clients as their best selves, guiding them to celebrate their achievements, enhance self-love, and build confidence. Her coaching program primarily attracts motivated Latinas who aim to make a positive impact on their communities, be it through business ventures or personal development projects.
Podcast host Jessica reflects on her own experience in the coaching program and how it reshaped her mindset. Jess values Erika's talent for creating a healing and supportive environment for Latinas, fostering a sense of community and empowerment.
In summary, Erika Cruz's coaching journey exemplifies the power of embracing change, following one's passions, and helping others unlock their potential.
Erika Cruz is a Coach, Speaker, and Founder of Courage Driven
Latina. Erika left a six-figure tech job and moved back into her childhood room to start her coaching business. Within 12 months, she grew her business to multi-six figures from that room.
She has supported hundreds of Latinas in finding clarity, living
a life they love, and leading with courage. Her social media content on social media and her podcast, Chingona Revolution, helps people become the best version of themselves.
Erika has been featured in NY Times, LA Times, CNN, and
Telemundo - and she is just getting started.
