Here’s a quick bio in his own words. Hi, I’m Fernando Fernandez. I’m proud to say that I’m Dominican from the Bronx. Currently, I work at Yelp as a Growth Product Manager focusing on Activation. When I’m not creating new products for Yelp, you can find me running outside, listening to EDM or dancing salsa/bachata. I love celebrating la cultura and also hearing how music really connects people around the world on the dance floor.

Welcome to a brand new episode of the ¿Quién Tú Eres? podcast, where we explore the conflict we often face between "professionalism" & being our authentic selves. This week's guest is none other than your host Pabel Martinez.
Pabel Martinez is a native New Yorker, storyteller, and former tech executive. Throughout his career, Pabel was trained to believe that many parts of his identity were unprofessional. Pabel would dedicate days out of the week to studying "white popular American culture" and memorizing scripts he would later use for work conversations. He knew that talking about Bad Bunny and shows like Insecure, would not make him relatable. Instead, he would binge-watch seasons of Riverdale since it would help him build relationships with colleagues and senior leaders. The assimilation became overwhelming, and it was at the expense of his identity & mental health.
As a result, Pabel's mission in life became redefining professionalism by empowering authenticity. In 2020, he launched Plurawl to bring this mission to life.
This week, Pabel shares his favorite, least favorite, and most surprising part about launching/ managing a Kickstarter campaign. With only a few days left until the campaign ends on June 14th, Pabel also opens up about what's next...after the Kickstarter.

Do your bowel movements change when you have anxiety? Pabel's been struggling with anxiety since launching the Kickstarter for Plurawl last week (click here to support).
Don't ask Pabel "How are you?". Instead, ask Pabel..."When's the last time you went to the bathroom?"...because that will tell you all about how his anxiety is doing. When he's REALLY anxious...his bowel movements will shut down and it may even be a few days without #2.
Yes. This may be TMI, but it's also the perfect illustration of how the mind impacts the body. Mental health impacts your physical health.

Welcome to a brand new episode of the ¿Quién Tú Eres? podcast, where we explore the conflict we often face between "professionalism" & being our authentic selves. This week's guest is Kevin Riley.
Kevin Riley is the New York City Council Member representing the 12th Council District, covering the neighborhoods of Wakefield, Baychester, Eastchester, Olinville, Edenwald, Williamsbridge, and Co-op City. Council Member Kevin Riley is the Chair of the Subcommittee on Zoning and Franchises and the Co-Chair of the Black, Latino, and Asian Caucus, which is the largest caucus in the New York City Council.
As Chair, he serves to prioritize creating equal opportunity and access for communities of color within New York City through the legislative, oversight, and budgetary powers of the Council. He has worked to ensure that our infrastructure empowers marginalized communities and addresses the housing crisis with initiatives for affordable housing and homeownership. For nearly the past year, the Council has approved 40 land use applications that will result in over 12,000 projected new housing units, of which over 63 percent are affordable. Under Council Member Kevin C. Riley’s leadership as Co-Chair of the Black, Latino, and Asian Caucus, the caucus has passed the historic FDNY Diversity bill package. Signed into law, the bills aim to address true equity in the recruitment and retention of underrepresented groups within the department, as well as requiring the implementation of diversity, inclusion, anti-discrimination, and anti-harassment training.
In this week’s episode, Kevin shares how connecting with Black male role models changed his life. Growing up, Kevin saw his father imprisoned and deported, and it skewed his idea of what his future would look like for the worse. It wasn’t until he was encouraged by Black men who were in political office did he see himself as someone who could make impactful change. Today, Kevin is a New York City Council Member representing the 12th Council District. He uses his position to prioritize creating equal opportunity and access for communities of color within New York City.
Check out Kevin’s episode to hear more about his work and his efforts to encourage men to seek community.

After transcribing the episode into the Plurawl app, the emotional word that summarized the journal entry was...exhilarated.
Exhilarated = A feeling of excitement, happiness, or elation. Often experienced during moments of high energy and reflecting an optimistic state.
On the episode, Pabel is embracing changes in podcasting and content creation strategy. These updates are bringing him a sense of liberation...despite a few uncertainties about the public reception and social media algorithm influences. During the episode, Pabel reflects on the role that authenticity plays in the creative process, especially as a Tech Founder/ CEO. Although there is a desire to be vulnerable and push the boundaries of professionalism, it doesn't mean that there isn't any self-doubt or worry about being the representation...that he desperately wants to see in the world.

She found that the dress code limited her to uncomfortable clothing and made it difficult to do everything a teacher has to handle. So she started incorporating sneakers and more casual clothing into her workwear. This caught the attention of her students who loved her new outfits and her male colleagues who were inspired to start a tie boycott.

Serendipity = the occurrence and development of events by chance in a happy or beneficial way.
This podcast alternates between sharing others' authenticity journeys on Tuesdays and Pabel's own on Fridays. Despite mixed reviews, he's surprised to find that many prefer his personal Friday episodes, which he never expected. Reflecting on the feedback, Pabel acknowledges his initial self-doubt about his unfiltered thoughts but finds it gratifying that others resonate with his authenticity.
Feeling "serendipitous," Pabel reflects on recent experiences of embracing imperfection and learning through experimentation and how it's been leading to professional opportunities.
