What do you do when you feel called to different things? How do you know what the right path is?
Man oh man, what a topic! In this podcast episode, I talk about all the different interests I have held over the last year since stepping away from chocolate, and where I’m at now after having explored, invested, and put time into those different interests.
Remember this: if it is your calling, it will keep calling you.
PS While summertime has been my OFF season, I am currently accepting new applicants for 1:1 mentorship as well as opening up the waitlist for Round 3 of Best Dang Strategy group coaching.

You may have heard that you need systems in place for your business, but what does that even mean? On today’s Create Your Path podcast, I have my friend and systems expert, Diane Lam, break it all down. She defines what a system truly is, how to start if you’re a solopreneur, what is important to focus on first as your build out your system, and how not one system fits all.
I met Diane through a marketing group coaching program that we’re both part of, and we instantly clicked. I always find it fascinating when an expert in the field can break down a buzzword and make it simple.
If you’d like to learn more about Diane and/or are looking to start putting systems in place for your business, definitely give her a follow and check her out!

"I want my business to be sustainable." Yo, like what does that even mean??
In this episode of the Create Your Path podcast, let's focus on actually CREATING/curating a business that fills us up with joy, has the support it needs to run and function smoothly, AND can actually support the LIFE that we WANT.
Many deep things to think about, but I am not about to riff on a topic that so many people try to preach on without taking into account how you actually FEEL about the business which you are trying to sustain.
For more, tune into the whole episode 🙂

Can we get really deep for a moment?
Trusting yourself…fully. Are you there yet? Are you not?
I realize, that for me, the ability to start trusting myself had to start with the realization that I had the biggest difficulty doing so because it wasn’t exemplified to me.
”Don’t do that, do this.” “What you’re going to do is…” “bahala ka” (Tagalog for “you take care of it” but in a negative connotation) followed by heated conversations, a series of family blow-ups, unresolved issues rearing their ugly head time and time again.
Yeahhhhh….
Not to bring the vibes down but in order to start creating your path, you have to trust yourself, feel GOOD about that, and you have to know WHY you’re on that path in the first place.
Maybe you can relate to me and maybe we share some analysis paralysis, healing of old wounds, trying our best to find our place in the world kinda vibes….
Maybe following your own path has been the most liberating, scary, exciting and peaceful time of your life! If so, we’re sooooo on the same boat!

What do you do if the path is not clear? What about alternative paths? Should you consider them? How do you know what's right for you?
In this week’s podcast episode, I share with y’all a chapter of my life that went towards pastry.
Yeahhh…I know 😱
Btw, nothing against pastry chefs but chocolate will forever have my heart ♥️
What did taking that alternate path look like? Why did I take it? What did it eventually lead me to?
Let’s get vulnerable!

New podcast alert!
Man oh man, after taking a bit of a podcast hiatus, I am back! And opening up the podcast more to all creatives who feel a certain calling to do something with their passion but not really sure how to go about it.
In this first episode, I want to talk about releasing the pressure. I think we can get so stuck in this box and timeline of who we need to be and when we need to accomplish things, and life never works out that way, right? So rather than force ourselves to mold into this "ideal" that we've created in our heads....why not release the pressure and play a bit more with what's happening around us so we can fully experience the good, the bad, and all the in between?
Create Your Path is about trusting that inner voice of yours and finding YOUR way on this crazy journey of self-discovery and perhaps, entrepreneurship.
It's the first episode, y'all. So bear with me. More strategy talks, more inspiration and motivation, more guest experts in business, all to come soon!
Thanks for listening!-Tina

In this podcast episode, I want to talk about trusting your own process, regardless of what anyone else thinks or says, if it seems like things aren't working out, and keeping to what genuinely lights you up.
As I find myself in a bit of a transition phase myself, I recorded this when I was not in the best spirits because oftentimes the discovery process and the creative process has its fair share of frustration and what feels like a bajillion thoughts to sort through.
Alas! One step at a time.
May this podcast give you some encouragement if you're currently going through it!

What makes for a successful business? A phenomenal product, excellent customer relationships, a genuine enjoyment of what you are doing, and an understanding of what people are asking for, therefore offering a solution to their problems.
In this I Heart Chocolate Podcast episode, I am joined by Chef James Parsons, the creator of SoSaSe Chocolat. Chef James has been in the industry since the young age of 16, and today, shares his wealth of knowledge through weekly Chocy Chats (which he
hosts on Fridays through his Instagram) https://www.instagram.com/sosase_chocolat/, online courses, 1:1 hands on classes, and of course, his beautiful line of cocoa butter colors "i shud koko".
The secret to his success is found not only in his viewpoint towards chocolate and business, but in what he believes in general about life and having fun. It was a pleasure to hear his side of how things came together.

his quick podcast episode was inspired by the podcast episode between Jay Shetty and James Corden, in which James talked about letting go of something familiar to be open for something new...wherever life's next great adventure takes him....
I thought it was a very powerful message that can be applied to any entrepreneur, or any person really who is just kind of going through life and finding themselves resisting or feeling scared of what's to come next.
A huge part of everything I ever teach or talk about starts with mindset and self-belief. It is my sincerest hope that this one inspires you.

What is it like running a chocolate business with your spouse? In this week's I Heart Chocolate Podcast, I (Tina) and Bruno share our experience. How we ended up working together, the challenges we faced, the truth of growing and running two businesses at once in the face of all life's challenges, and the ultimate decision to put an indefinite pause on the chocolate side.
I do believe that everything happens for a reason and if you cannot accept or understand that and constantly resist or try to control things to YOUR exact plans, you'll quickly find yourself disappointed.
In hindsight, there were so many learning lessons for us...not just on the business side or what I would want for the business in the future, but even for us as a couple. Note to self: you'll need to have a strong sense of self and good communication and understanding of each other's needs and wants if you intend on keeping your relationship intact whilst working together. Ultimately, you have to be on the same page. And as you'll learn in this candid conversation, behind the scenes, Bruno and I were not always on the same track.
This conversation is raw and real, and as Bruno says, we "don't b******t." To update: as a whole, as individuals, as a family, as work life balance, and our own goals, we are in a much better place. We're both free to pursue what we enjoy pursuing most, and we have freedom from life's previous stressors.
I hope you enjoy :)

Something I used to struggle with a lot was really getting a grasp on the numbers in my business. I knew I needed to generate revenue, and I'd have expenses, BUT beyond that, my knowledge was pretty limited.
After taking business courses, accounting courses,
working with a coach ON my business, and reading books on the matter, I finally
feel like I really understand the ins and outs of how my business flows AND how
to shift things around so it can be a profit-making machine.
In this I Heart Chocolate Podcast episode, I'm sharing a resource I've used to help me
understand the numbers in my business AND develop a system that keeps me on
track. Chocolatiers, when it comes to the BUSINESS side of things...you CANNOT ignore the numbers!

How do you go about deciding what to prioritize in your business? Especially when there just seems like there's a million things to work on in your business, or perhaps you're stressed from financial worries, or stressed out from being overworked. Sound familiar?
Two quick things: You don't know what you don't know, and secondly, if you do NOT make the time and put in the effort to make any actual changes to what needs prioritizing in your business, you will either burn out or cash out.
Let's not get to that point, right?!
In today's I Heart Chocolate Podcast, I am offering you some solid advice on how you can start to DECIDE what it is that needs to be your TOP priority in your business, so you can stop running around your shop like a mad-man/woman and really start to put your energy + time towards what will really move your business forward.

Happy New Year, chocolate friends. In this week’s I Heart Chocolate Podcast episode, I’m riffing about how I’m currently feeling for 2024, and sharing what the shift I’ve been working on for the last few months has done for me.
As you listen to the episode, consider it an invitation to check-in with yourself and really go deep on WHY it is you’re doing what you’re doing…to construct your life, to build your business, and does it ALIGN with who you actually want to become?
You’ll start noticing a change in how I show up online soon. Again, intention and trusting the pace and the change is new to me, but I also feel very secure in sharing that I believe that everything I’m working on internally and how I’m choosing to invest my energy and time is the right path for me right now.
It’s a woo episode, y’all, but an honest and heartfelt one nonetheless.
Thanks so much for listening!

Hey chocolatiers, in this year’s final podcast, I’m sharing the things I would be sure to focus on if I were restarting my chocolate business.Things such as people skills and having a 5 year plan to build the business around the LIFE I desire. Oh yes. Remember that?
I’ve seen too many chocolatiers absolutely lose their zest for life because the work feels too heavy and too hard. I believe there’s a way to prevent the perpetual burnout and truly design a business that you love.
For more, dive on in.
Lastly, thank you so much for listening to the I Heart Chocolate Podcast for the past 2.5 years now! Wishing you a most peaceful and prosperous 2024-Tina

In this "I Heart Chocolate" Podcast episode, I share 3 beliefs that I used to hold onto so strongly before life and time showed me otherwise.
Do you resonate with any of these? And how do you feel about the changes you've seen for yourself? I am curious!

If there's something you should know about me, I put my money where my mouth is. For the past 3+ years, I have been invested with either a business coach/mentor and/or a program to help me learn more about business organization, sales, finances, becoming a speaker, money mindset, and whatever else I felt like I didn't quite have a handle on.
In this week's I Heart Chocolate Podcast, I am sharing the three top things I learned from my investments.
