Listen "Episode 16 ~ Vanessa & Gilbert Alvarado"
Episode Synopsis
In this heartfelt conversation, I sit down with Vanessa and Gilbert Alvarado — partners in life, parenting, and business. We talk about their very different upbringings, what drew them together, and how they’ve built a marriage grounded in love, patience, and faith over 12 years. From balancing careers at the national laboratory to raising their daughter and running a toddler party rental business, they share candid stories about vulnerability, emotional growth, breaking cycles from childhood, and learning to be present as parents.We also dive into how they met in the most unexpected way (at a car dealership!), the lessons they’ve carried forward from their families, and the ways they support each other’s dreams — from music to motherhood. It’s a mix of laughter, real talk, and plenty of moments that might make you tear up.📌 Listen now for an honest, warm, and inspiring episode about love, partnership, and the everyday work of building a life together.
