What made me unbreakable?
Meet Aide
At 30, broke and desperate, I made a choice: rebuild or surrender.
I chose to rebuild. Within one year, I created a business that generated my first $100K. Success, right?
Wrong. That achievement nearly destroyed me.
Here's what no one tells you about "making it":
Financial success without emotional wellness is a beautiful prison
Becoming a mother shattered every lie I'd believed about "completeness"
The romanticized version of motherhood left me feeling lost, exhausted, and deceived
I discovered the hardest truth: Only I could fill my own voids
And that's when everything changed.
While helping my clients double their incomes, I noticed something: they kept asking for more than business strategies. They needed what I was learning - how to build wealth AND maintain sanity, how to grow professionally while healing personally, how to succeed without sacrificing their souls.
I realized there was a massive gap in our community: successful, driven people who were thriving financially but dying inside. People who needed someone who understood that you can have trauma AND triumph, wounds AND wealth, healing AND hustle.
Because survival taught me this: You don't have to choose between thriving and healing. You can do both.
And you don't have to do it alone.
The Resilience Story
1991
I WASN´T SUPPOSED TO MAKE IT.
Born in a small hut on the coast of Colombia, without electricity or running water, I became an orphan at 5 years old. I carry the blood of those who survived the transatlantic slave trade - those who never surrendered. Violence forced me from home to home, and every statistic said I'd never escape poverty.
1996 - 2008
My first great responsibility - caring for my 3-year-old sister when I had just turned 5.
At an age when most children are learning to tie their shoes, I was learning to tie our lives together. Moving from house to house every 3-4 years, I became her shield against the chaos. In a world that felt temporary, I made myself her constant. This little girl taught me my first lesson in leadership: sometimes love means carrying someone else's weight when you can barely carry your own. Every move, every new bed, every unfamiliar face - I made sure she never felt alone, even when I did.

THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM
How I entered the Colombian Air Force with zero possibilities.
Everyone saw a displaced orphan with no connections, no money, no "possibilities." I saw my only shot at stability. While others had family pulling strings, I had hunger pulling me forward. Working in restaurants, saving every peso, studying by candlelight - I turned my desperation into determination. The day I walked through those academy gates wasn't just about joining the military. It was about proving that impossible is just another word for "hasn't happened yet."
2011 - 2020
ROOTS IN THE EARTH
I started buying cattle to purchase land - finally, a place in the world I could call mine.
With my first Air Force salary in hand, I made a choice that would change everything. While my peers spent on weekend parties, I invested in cattle. Each cow was a step closer to something I'd never had: belonging. Land meant more than dirt and grass - it meant I would never again be at the mercy of someone else's roof. For the first time in my life, I wasn't just surviving someone else's story. I was writing my own, one acre at a time.
2020
THE FIRST ACT OF SELF-LOVE
In the middle of COVID, I decided it was time to live - to do something brave and stop living in fear.
While the world was shutting down, I was opening up. After years of chasing security through military salaries, I made the scariest decision of my life: I chose me. Leaving the Air Force wasn't about running from stability - it was about running toward possibility. For the first time, I did something not because I needed to, but because I wanted to. This wasn't survival mode. This was the beginning of actually living. COVID taught everyone about isolation, but it taught me about independence.
2020
THE BETRAYAL THAT BROKE ME
When I lost all my savings by blindly trusting someone I thought was my sister.
The person I called sister, who I'd trusted with my entire financial future, vanished with everything I'd built. Every cow sold, every dream mortgaged, every hope shattered. This wasn't just theft - it was the final confirmation of my deepest fear: I truly had no one. The depression that followed wasn't just about money. It was about realizing that even in my closest relationships, I was still fundamentally alone. Some betrayals don't just take your money - they take your faith in human goodness.

THE CELL THAT TESTED MY CHARACTER
When Honesty Became My Superpower
Immigration detention. One night in a cell. They offered me political asylum—an easy path because of my displaced background and military service.
But I said no.
"I don't want to take a spot from someone who needs this more than me. I know I can rebuild my life." That honesty, that refusal to take the easy way out, changed everything.
2.5 years later, they granted me permanent residency.
This is where I learned: Integrity is the most valuable currency you can never lose.
2021-2023
THE DARKNESS THAT ALMOST WON
I fell into deep depression - no job, no support network, wondering why I kept getting up when life kept knocking me down.
This was my rock bottom with a basement. No income, no visa, no family, no safety net - just me and the crushing weight of wondering if survival was worth it. Every morning became a battle between giving up and getting up. The voice in my head whispered that maybe everyone was right - maybe I wasn't meant to make it. But somewhere in that darkness, a tiny flame refused to die. I couldn't see the light at the end of the tunnel, but I kept crawling forward anyway, one breath at a time.
2024
THE COMEBACK NOBODY SAW COMING
With nothing but determination and a deep commitment to myself, I built a completely new business from scratch - generating my first $100K in one year.
When you've lost everything twice, you learn something powerful: you can't lose what's truly yours - your mind, your skills, your relentless spirit. Starting from absolute zero, I built something beautiful. Not because I had resources, but because I had resourcefulness. Not because I had support, but because I had self-belief. That $100K wasn't just revenue - it was proof that phoenix stories aren't just mythology. They're blueprints for anyone brave enough to rise from their own ashes.
Today
Why I chose this path:
to support others who, no matter what they're going through, can always trust themselves and take it one day at a time.
Here's what I know that I wish someone had told me: Your breaking points are actually breaking-through points. Every betrayal, every cell, every depression, every impossible moment - they weren't punishments. They were preparation.
I didn't choose this work because I love giving advice. I chose it because I know what it feels like to rebuild your life from nothing - twice. I know what it's like to question if you have the strength to get up one more time. And I know what it's like to discover that yes, you do.
My mission isn't to fix you - because you're not broken. My mission is to remind you of something you already know but may have forgotten: You are your own rescue. You always have been. You always will be.
I've learned that trust isn't about finding the right people - it's about becoming the right person to trust yourself with your own life. Every scar I carry is proof that you can survive what feels unsurvivable. Every victory I've claimed is evidence that comebacks are always possible.
THE TRUTH I'VE LEARNED:
Money doesn't make you wealthy. Self-love does.
Your bank account can be stolen. Your self-worth cannot.
The most powerful person in your life story isn't the one who hurt you or helped you. It's you. It´s always been YOU.
