Victoria: Hey everyone, it’s Sensei Victoria Whitfield here, your journey partner in business, welcoming you back to episode 183 of the Journeypreneur Podcast. This is your source for channeled holistic stress management techniques, guidance, inspiration and motivation to stay on your path to rapid financial ascension and massive impact as a conscious entrepreneur.
So in this podcast episode, I just I'm trying to contain my excitement because who I get to interview and share with you is a journey partner of mine who's been journeying with me since day one of my retreats.
This woman is an incredibly juicy goddess who is a fabulous cooking blogger. She is so fanciful and wonderful and creative and brilliant. Her name is Isabel Veguilla and you can find her at CoquiCookingAcademy.com - showing her Boricua pride! Goddess, welcome to the podcast.
Isabel: Thank you so much, Victoria.
Victoria: This has been a long time coming. I'm so happy to get to have you on the podcast because I know over the years you've shared about your experiences with cultivating your business and coming to the retreats and healing your body and all of the fun discoveries that we've had along the way, like, over the last four years. Four years?
Isabel: Four years.
Victoria: So for four years we've been journeying together, and what does that mean? That means we have been seeing each other on a weekly basis for four years and going on not one, but five live retreats for all four years. So at 20 retreats, you know a thing or two about working with me.
Isabel: Oh yes. I have all the notes and folders of all the information that I just keep going back to over and over again.
Victoria: Amazing. You know, I don't even know where to start. So I'm just going to ask you questions because, you know, we talk about everything. We'll see how it goes. I mean, I may even need to have you back on the podcast for a second course.
But what you said you do in your own words, Goddess, could you tell us? I mean, I know you're incredible. I've had the inside front row seat view on how awesome you are. At the same time, this may be the very first time that someone's seeing you or hearing about what you do in the world. Is there any way that you could tell us in your own words what it is you do?
And you can also include, if you like, you can talk about the business, but you can also talk about the fact that you don't just have a business right here. You're also employed. It's entirely up to you. What could you tell us what it is you do? And especially what are the three things that you are known for?
Isabel: Well, I'll start with the three things since we already know that I'm known for being a huge Disney animation fan. So Disney in particular, all things Disney, the parks, the movies, the merchandise, the experiences, everything about Disney food, I can go on and on. And I just love Disney.
So I'm also known as a world traveler. I love going to new places and discovering the culture and especially the food. And that leads me to the third thing I'm known for is being a chef and a foodie in general. And then the only other thing I want to mention is that by day I'm a project manager and in I.T. and all other times I'm an artist, a writer, an adventurer. Pretty much, yes.
Victoria: A real world traveler is a food world traveler. There's a special kind of awesome getting to travel, tasting the world and going to theme parks. Like, I think about your photo shoot in Japan. Absolutely.
Isabel: Yes.
Victoria: Incredible. Incredible. And I'm curious. So you live a really juicya life, but like, this is something well, did this kind of happen like by chance? I'm curious. Like, what was the moment where you decided to start living more of that laptop lifestyle, of creating creative projects in the business, like what happened that inspired you to to get going on this path? Is there a story there?
Isabel: Oh, yes. And since the everything from writing and animation, it's called the "Inciting Incident."
Victoria: Ooo that sounds exciting! I've never heard of that term before.
