Growing up in a traditional Hispanic household, Jeanette Miranda Davila was taught the “safe path”: go to school, get a stable 9–5, and never risk security. But deep down, she always felt called to something more - something creative, something freeing, something hers.

She chased that calling into the entertainment world, but motherhood shifted her again. She wanted presence, purpose, and a community that didn’t yet exist. So she created one. Rooted In Her was born from her desire to support women navigating life transitions with honesty, vulnerability, and real connection.

But her journey wasn’t linear. After rapid growth (monthly events, community building, countless women served) Jeanette hit burnout. She felt drained, unseen, and taken advantage of. So she stepped back. Prayed. Journaled. Asked herself what she truly wanted.

And the answer was clear: Build a real business. Build her own path.

Leaving Divas Local was her wake-up call. Women weren’t showing up for the brand—they were showing up for her. That realization fueled her comeback.

Today, Jeanette is a paid speaker, community builder, and the visionary behind a thriving membership of women committed to collaboration over comparison. With a growing team and expanding events, Rooted In Her is becoming more than a community, it’s a movement.

Her mission? Inspire women to recognize their worth, break cultural cycles, and embrace bold dreams.

Because when women feel seen, supported, and rooted in who they truly are, anything is possible.

When Snawing Alvarado came to the Bronx from the Dominican Republic at eight years old, he thought snow meant success. Instead, it meant Section 8 housing, roaches, and a basement that smelled like broken promises. The “American Dream” wasn’t what it looked like on TV — it was crowded apartments, tired parents, and the quiet pressure to make it out.

Snawing became the first in his family to graduate college and land a “good job” as an ICU nurse. But three months in, the dream cracked. Long hours. Miserable pay. No freedom. He realized he wasn’t chasing purpose — he was chasing a paycheck.

So he bet on himself. He left nursing, flipped his savings into real estate, and built multiple care homes that now cash-flow over $20K a month. But the bigger the numbers got, the more he realized: money isn’t peace. The grind cost him relationships, sleep, and moments with the people who mattered most.

Today, Snawing’s success isn’t defined by dollar signs — it’s defined by balance. Coaching others, salsa dancing, spending time with family — that’s the real wealth.

Because the American Dream? It’s not free. It’ll take your comfort, your time, and sometimes your heart.

But if you pay the price with purpose, it’s worth every cent.

At 26, Hannah Kesler is teaching entrepreneurs how to build wealth like banks do — by controlling where their money lives. But her story started at Cracker Barrel, not in a boardroom.

Waiting tables at 18, Hannah learned her first business lesson: the harder she worked, the more she earned. That independence became her addiction. When college and accounting didn’t stick, her dad invited her to join The Money Multiplier — starting at the bottom doing paperwork and applications.

Then came her turning point. At 20, she got a last-minute call to replace her dad on stage in Scottsdale — 65 seasoned real estate investors waiting. Nervous but determined, she delivered. That night, she found her passion for public speaking and helping others understand money.

Today, Hannah travels the country teaching Becoming Your Own Banker, a philosophy built on using high-cash-value life insurance to create uninterrupted compounding and total control. Her message? You don’t need to work harder — you need to make your money work smarter.

But her path wasn’t handed down. Working in a family business meant hard lessons, boundaries, and proving she earned her seat. “Family dinners aren’t for business,” she says. “The business can wait.”

For Hannah, wealth starts with mindset. “You’ll never get your time back,” she says. “So take the leap, trust yourself — and get out of your own damn way.”

And remember, youth is your power.

He flunked Organic Chemistry, bombed his plan to be a doctor, and traded lab coats for liquor bottles — launching a viral wine campaign before he ever knew what “brand strategy” meant. But that failure? It’s what turned Alex Strubbe into the marketing mind who believes authenticity sells better than any ad spend.

At the University of Texas, Alex was chasing expectations — until life slapped him with a D-minus and an identity crisis. He pivoted to business, interned everywhere, and stumbled into marketing through a campaign called “Will You Accept This Wine?” that blew up. But behind the creativity was chaos: burnout, weight gain, and a version of himself he didn’t recognize.

A Birthright trip to the Middle East flipped everything. He came home rebuilt — mentally, physically, spiritually — and launched Strubbe Consultants, a business born at the same time he was. His first clients were broke dreamers, not big brands. No ad budgets, no bullshit. Just story, substance, and trust.

Now, Strubbe helps founders drop the ego, fire the version of themselves they think they need to be, and build from who they actually are. His motto: “The hoodie converts better than the suit.”

Because in business — just like life — pretending doesn’t sell. Honesty does.
