It's been a minute since I gave you a full behind-the-scenes update, so today's episode is a solo catch-up plus is Nara Smith a trad wife or a genius businesswoman cosplaying domesticity? A mom informed her three adult daughters they now owe her $300/month, should they pay? And OpenAI took a group of creators on a luxury brand trip that the internet did NOT let slide, but who actually deserves the…
This week on Yo Quiero Dinero, Jannese sits down with Jessica Rivera — proud Boricua, mom at 19, and 20-year corporate vet who climbed from receptionist to senior leadership without ever following the "traditional" path. Jessica is here to help us decode the psychology of corporate power, promotions, and why your work ethic alone will never be enough to get you promoted. This episode gets into the…
Hola mi gente! This week I'm switching things up. My husband Ray is joining me in an actual whole ass podcast studio to talk about the real estate business we've started building: house flipping. We closed on our first fixer-upper here in Florida, in cash, and we're pulling back the curtain on why we did it, what the real numbers look like, and how we keep being business partners from turning into…
This week we're picking up where we left off last week after I shared my own journey selling my condo in PR — and this time we're going deep on buying real estate on the island. I sat down with Krystal Vias, a proud Nuyorican and founder of Buy The Block PR, who's on a mission to reconnect la diáspora with Puerto Rico, one block at a time. Krystal didn't step foot on the island until she was 38…
By now you've probably seen me post on social media that I sold my condo in Puerto Rico, and the reactions have been... a lot. So let's get into it. In this solo episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of why I bought that condo right after my divorce, what it represented to me, and why — three and a half years later — I decided to let it go. This is not a "never sell real estate" episode. This…
This week Jannese sits down with executive coach, speaker, and author Diana Bernal to talk about something a lot of us never learned how to do: build a career on purpose instead of just falling into one.Diana is a first-gen success story who climbed the corporate ladder in nonprofit fundraising, hit "senior vice president" energy, and realized the corner office wasn't actually the goal. Now she…
Let's talk about something a lot of us have been quietly researching — cosmetic procedures. Whether you've gone down a TikTok rabbit hole on facelifts or you're seriously considering something, the money side of this decision matters just as much as the medical side. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Ruslan Zhuravsky — board-certified facial plastic surgeon and founder of Z Face Plastic Surgery…
Today's episode is basically my love language: multiple income streams. I'm joined by Meghan Lim, AKA Meghan Makes Money, who went from a $78K corporate finance job to building a six-figure creator business with 160K+ followers, all in about two and a half years. We're talking side hustles, affiliate marketing, brand deals, pricing your worth, and why "selling" isn't a dirty word. WE GET INTO:…
The Guardian recently featured my plan for how I'm raising my toddler to become a millionaire and it got me fired up about something I've been sitting on for a while. Today I'm calling out the financial patterns that Latino parents normalize that are actually keeping our community from building real wealth. I'm not talking about our elders who came here with nothing and survived on grit. I'm…
Earlier this year, I posted a question on Instagram asking Latinas making over $200K what they do — and the answers revealed something that most people in personal finance aren't willing to say out loud: you cannot build wealth on a median income when the cost of just existing has gone through the roof. In this solo episode, I'm breaking down why traditional money advice keeps failing us, what…
