Podcast Overview

For daughters of immigrants and WOC who are breaking cycles in their family by earning more than "just enough" and doing what no one before them has. Join me, Mariela De La Mora, as I help you break free in survival mode, lead with confidence and make more money doing it. Each week, we will dive into business, mindset and leadership coaching that is focused on the lived experiences of First Gen. Because let's be real - daughters of immigrants need to be coached differently. As the eldest daughter of immigrants, I have personally broken cycles and helped over 100 women do the same. I left a 16 year career as a Marketing Executive where I was the only WOC in the space, to now coaching 6-7 figure CEOs and high ranking women at organizations like Google, Microsoft and the United Nations. Using the tools I teach, I've since built a million-dollar business as a single mom. We’ll cover topics that will help you become an unstoppable, badass, money-making leader who knows her worth and has the receipts to show for it.

91. How I Brought in 30 Clients in Q1 — BTS: 100 Clients in 2026

<p>If you've been selling yourself — your access, your time, your proximity — and wondering why scaling feels impossible, this episode is going to reframe the whole thing.</p><p>This is Part 1 of Behind the Scenes: 100 Clients in 2026, an ongoing series where I'm sharing what I'm actually changing in my business, my process, and my mindset as I work toward a goal I've never attempted before. In Q1 alone, I brought in 30 clients — and I did it by making shifts I want to walk you through in real time.</p><p>In this episode, I'm breaking down the five business shifts I made to go from selling proximity to selling a process — and why that distinction is everything if you want to grow without burning out or capping yourself.</p><p>I talk about:</p><ul><li>why documenting your IP is an act of service, not a loss of the human element — and how to deliver your expertise without being in the room every time</li><li>how to tell the difference between demand you manufactured and demand that already exists — and why launching to the wrong one costs you more than you think</li><li>what it means to message for strangers instead of fans, and why the language your audience is actually shopping in is not the language you're probably using</li><li>why testing demand before launching saved me from the warm-leads-run-out trap — and the two low-stakes ways I validated my method before selling it at scale</li><li>the one system every business owner needs before posting on social media becomes their entire marketing strategy</li></ul><br/><p>This one is for you if you're ready to grow beyond what your time and proximity can hold — and you want to see exactly how that happens from the inside.</p><p>Listen now.</p><p><strong>Work with me:</strong></p><p>If you want to build a story-led content system that brings in clients consistently, <a href="https://marieladelamora.com/category-of-one" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">join Category of One here</a></p><p>To work together privately on your offer, your process, or your next level, <a href="https://marieladelamora.com/private-coaching" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">learn more about private coaching here</a></p><p>Free resource: <a href="https://marieladelamora.myflodesk.com/storyselling-hooks" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Download the Six Figure Storyselling Bundle</a> — 60 days of storyselling prompts and the Sellable Stories GPT, so you can start identifying and telling the stories that actually sell</p>

90. How I've made make huge identify-shifting decisions over the last decade+

<p>What if you’re not actually confused?</p><p>What if you already know what needs to change, but you’re afraid to feel the grief, guilt, or fear that comes with saying it out loud?</p><p>In this episode, I’m sharing from a very personal place.</p><p>I’m currently sitting in a big decision about whether I’m leaving San Francisco, the Bay Area, or even the country. And what I’ve realized is that the hardest part of a decision like this isn’t always the logistics. Sometimes it’s admitting that you’ve outgrown something that still looks beautiful, successful, or meaningful on paper.</p><p>I’m talking about what it looks like to make identity-shifting decisions when you don’t have the full plan yet. The kind of decisions that ask you to trust yourself before you have proof. The kind that come with grief because they affect not just you, but your daughter, your parents, your hometown, your identity, and the life you’ve worked so hard to build.</p><p>I also share how this has shown up in other major decisions across my life, from leaving a 13-year relationship, to quitting jobs, to solo travel, to starting over, to building a business and a life that would have made no sense to the version of me that was once just trying to survive.</p><p>In this episode, I talk about:</p><ul><li>how to tell the difference between confusion and avoiding your feelings</li><li>why you usually know what you don’t want before you know exactly what you do want</li><li>how grief, guilt, and fear can keep you stuck in a decision you’ve already made privately</li><li>the reflection questions I ask myself when I know I’ve outgrown a season, identity, city, or way of living</li><li>what it looks like to trust yourself when the emotional truth arrives before the logistical clarity</li></ul><br/><p>If you’re in a season where something no longer fits, but you haven’t been ready to fully admit it yet, this episode will hit.</p><p><strong>Work with me:</strong></p><p>If you want to sell more through your story and build a brand around who you are, <a href="https://www.marieladelamora.com/category-of-one" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">join the waitlist for Category of One</a></p><p>To work with me on an identity shift you're going through, <a href="https://marieladelamora.com/private-coaching" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">learn more here and schedule a call</a>.</p><p>Free resource: To uncover your most sellable, high converting stories, <a href="https://marieladelamora.myflodesk.com/storyselling-hooks" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">download the Six Figure Storyselling Bundle here</a>.

89. Webinar Replay: Create Daily Conversations, Weekly Leads, and Monthly High-Ticket Sales Through Storyselling

<p>Emotional Resonance dramatically shortens the buying cycle.</p><p>The distance between someone first hearing about your work and deciding they want to work with you.</p><p> </p><p>People choose emotionally first. Logic helps justify the decision afterward.</p><p> </p><p>This matters even more with high-ticket, high-proximity work.</p><p> </p><p>I've seen it, heard it and personally experienced it time and time again.</p><p> </p><p>You <strong>think</strong> you need the most airtight offer promise. </p><p>You <strong>think</strong> you need to overcome every possible objection before someone says yes. And those things do matter.</p><p> </p><p><strong>But story is what closes the Trust Gap.</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>Story is what creates Mental Exclusivity</strong> (i.e. you become the only option they're even considering)</p><p> </p><p><strong>And when that happens, the buying process speeds up dramatically.</strong></p><p> </p><p>Some become clients immediately. </p><p>Some circle back months, or even a year+ later because they never forgot you.</p><p> </p><p>Both of those things happened after that one speaking event.</p><p> </p><p>And this is the part most content strategies completely miss.</p><p> </p><p>They explain the work. </p><p>But they never create the kind of Emotional Resonance that <u>moves</u> someone into action.</p><p> </p><p>And this is exactly why storytelling is an essential part of a high-ticket content strategy. It was part of every brand campaign I ran for 16 years in Corporate. Each one was anchored in a story.</p><p> </p><p>So why would that NOT be the case for you when your work is <strong><u>far</u></strong> more human than any corporate campaign?</p><p> </p><p><strong>And when storytelling is used strategically, something interesting happens.</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>Emotional Resonance shortens the buying cycle.</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>The Trust Gap closes faster.</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>You become the person they remember.</li></ol><br/><p><strong>And then the visible results start showing up.</strong></p><ol><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>The distance between follower and client gets shorter.</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>People who have been watching you for ages begin to get off the fence.</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>You stop getting price objections (yes, really).</li><li data-list="bullet"><span class="ql-ui" contenteditable="false"></span>You stop getting compared.
