In this powerful episode, I sit down with Adina Appelbaum, an immigration lawyer, Accredited Financial Counselor, and co-founder of Immigrant Finance. We dive into how immigrants can take control of both their legal status and their financial future.

Adina opens up about her journey and how her personal and professional experiences inspired her and her husband Mauricio to build a platform that helps immigrant families gain stability and create generational wealth. We talk about the most common financial myths in immigrant communities, how someone without a Social Security number can start building credit, and why financial empowerment is a critical part of the immigrant experience.

Whether you're documented, undocumented, or somewhere in between, this conversation is filled with practical advice, encouragement, and real tools to move forward.

This week, we're joined by Jasmine Lopez a powerful voice in the world of financial healing and community care. She's a proud 2nd generation Puerto Rican/Mexican who grew up in a single-parent home, and her early experiences shaped a complex relationship with money, self-worth, and mental health. After navigating financial hardships—including bankruptcy in her mid-20s—she began a transformational journey of redefining success, healing from within, and breaking free from limiting beliefs.

Since 2017, she’s been doing the deep work: therapy, financial coaching, goal-setting with friends, and exploring holistic healing beyond just talk therapy. Through storytelling, creativity, and community, she's built a vision for Mentally Mutual—a space where collective healing and thriving is the mission.

In this episode, we dive into money mindset, mental health, healthcare access, nonprofits, and so much more. You’re gonna want to take notes.
