In this episode of UndocuStartup™ Weekly, I’m sharing 6 of the biggest lessons I learned while building the #1 entrepreneurship program for undocumented students — all while launching our first-ever UndocuStartup™ Tour across 6 states.

From setting boundaries and knowing when to walk away…
To asking experts for help, staying focused, and hiring only when it matters — this week’s episode is about protecting your energy so you can grow your impact.


Oh... and yes, we’re going NATIONAL.

🔑 Key Lessons Covered:

  • Be helpful — but set boundaries to protect your time

  • Ask the experts — in business and in health

  • Tackle your hardest tasks early in the week

  • If there’s friction, walk away — not every client is a fit
