Astrology, Business, and Building from Your Cosmic Blueprint w/ Ivette Fullerton

Show Notes

In this special first episode of the season, Victoria sits down with Ivette Fullerton—a powerhouse who's simultaneously running Cualli Co (a sustainable beach lifestyle brand celebrating Mexican heritage), pitching her debut novel to literary agents, and raising a family.

This conversation goes deep into what it really takes to build multiple businesses as a first-generation entrepreneur, the power of representation, and how astrology isn't just woo-woo—it's a legitimate tool for understanding yourself and your business journey.

Ivette gets refreshingly real about time management, the challenges of being a Latina business owner, learning business without formal training, and why sometimes you just need to "have the audacity of a mediocre white man" to take up the space you deserve.

Whether you're building a business, writing a book, or just trying to figure out how to juggle all the things while staying true to yourself, this episode is for you.
