Listen "6. Writing Your Own Story (In Two Languages) with Jade Cintrón Báez"
Episode Synopsis
This week's guest on Being All of Us, Jade Cintrón Báez, embodies a lot of what we try to do on this podcast as she embraces all sides of who she is. She tells me how she grew into her full identity as an "Americubaricuan", how she started her Youtube show, ¡Looking Bilingüe!, what it was like to be a Latina in Spain, and how she learned to trust herself and take control of her script and her story.

17:00 - How ¡Looking Bilingüe! started
22:00 - How it feels to share and hear stories and struggles
28:30 - How Jade ended up in Spain
33:30 - The reasons for wanting more and forging one’s own path
39:00 - Lighting your own fire
43:00 - Listening to and trusting yourself and your internal conversations
46:50 - Writing your own story or script
50:00 - Taking control of your own script – find your goal and the go-to people to get you there

What are you reaching for? (the dream)
