In this heartfelt second episode, Mariela gets candid about the struggle to hit “record” again after a successful first episode. From procrastination to vulnerability, Mariela dives into the very real fears that come with putting yourself out there—before anyone’s even seen the show.
She takes us back to Miami, where her journey in the U.S. began, celebrating her sister’s graduation and reflecting on her own path from commercials and voiceovers in Florida to chasing big dreams in LA. With humor and honesty, Mariela shares what made her take the leap, how John Mayer, a Raya date, and a gut feeling led her west, and how quickly the industry’s glamour gave way to reality.
This episode is a love letter to starting over, trusting the timing of your life, and staying delusionally confident when things get tough.
🌟 Whether you’re chasing a dream, dealing with self-doubt, or just love a good story—you’ll find something to hold onto here.
