81. When Fear Becomes Fuel: Evelyn Lopez-Delon's Impossible Choice

What does it take to rebuild your life in a new country after losing everything?

This week's Tuesday Truths brings you the powerful story of Evelyn Lopez-Delon, whose journey from El Salvador to Australia is a testament to the unbreakable human spirit.

If you missed Part One yesterday, make sure to go back and listen first—this is a story that needs to be heard from the beginning. Today's Tuesday Truths dives even deeper into Evelyn's remarkable journey.

After losing her mother at a young age, Evelyn faced challenges that would have broken most people. In this deeply moving conversation, she opens up about the terrifying financial realities of entrepreneurship—when you've lost everything before, the fear of losing it all again becomes paralysing. She shares the sleepless nights, the difficult decisions, and the moment she chose to honour her mother's memory by taking the leap anyway.

Evelyn also reveals her experience navigating Sandifer Syndrome as a parent while building her business, showing how life doesn't pause for your entrepreneurial dreams. Most powerfully, she unmasks her past, sharing the parts of her story she once kept hidden and the liberation that came from owning her entire journey.

This isn't just another business success story—it's a raw exploration of authenticity, vulnerability, and what it means to take risks when you have everything to lose.

Come back tomorrow for Part Two, where Evelyn reveals the incredible signs from her mother and the breakthrough moments that transformed everything!
