Show Notes

Exciting News! As they say, SAVE THE BEST FOR LAST and THIS IS THE LAST release and 95th episode of the Opportunity Knocks podcast for 2023! ✨

Do you feel like you are ENOUGH? We all have had experiences in our lifetime where we were not only told we are not ENOUGH but we also don’t feel as if we fit in certain communities whether it be cultural, color, gender, race etc👨🏿👨🏾👨🏼 And let’s just say that some people feel this more than others to their core. I was blessed to meet Christopher Rivas at the Latino Hive IConnexcion a community of Latino/as that are disruptors in their industries and the world. 

And while I knew that Christopher was an actor, it wasn’t until I heard him speak about his book "Brown Enough" that it truly hit home for me. Why you ask? Well, as a Germa-Mex Latina I never truly knew where I fit in. I wasn’t brown enough and I wasn’t white enough ever. People constantly mistake me for a typical “white” girl when I am so much more than my cover. His conversations in his book Brown Enough around love, violence, race, familia and immigrant parents really impacted me. They left me with thoughts around self worth and allowed me to rethink some of my foundational thoughts about what is enough. 

Friends, this week we have the amazingly talented story teller, actor, author Christopher Rivas.✨🎧🎙️ He is the author of “Brown Enough” and a podcaster of Sirius XM’s stitcher and as an actor he is known for his work on the Fox series "Call me Kat." ✨ Our Episode 95th “BROWN ENOUGH” is available on all platforms. ✨ Transparently, I could not have guessed this episode would go to the depths that it did chatting on deep subjects like consciousness, silent retreats and personal growth! It was truly an honor to sit with him and learn about his journey! We also talk about the cultural barriers we face as well as the first-hand experiences and personal challenges around the thought of loving ourselves and accepting ourselves as enough!!
