Welcome to DO UR WORK & Be Well, a podcast about learning to prioritize health & well-being while doin’ the work we’re meant to do.
DO UR WORK & Be Well is a podcast for the dreamers & doers who are clear about how they want to show up in the world, but who sometimes find it difficult to stay well in the process. Join host, Adriana Paez - a social worker/educator turned artist/entrepreneur, as she explores the ups & downs of doin’ the work ur meant to do in an unwell society. She’ll share her own personal triumphs and struggles in the midst of a mid-life pivot and she’ll also talk to others who are doin’ their work to find out how (or if) they manage to be well at the same time.

#4. Taking the Leap with Gabe Rodriguez
Today’s guest is my very wise friend, Gabe Rodriguez (she/ella), a bilingual intuitive healer and energy practitioner. In this episode, we explore:
Gabe’s work of helping her communities heal through her intuitive offerings of akashic records, energy cleanses, & relationship readings
How she went from getting readings to giving them & building confidence through practice & mentorship
The search for alignment in our work under the weight of capitalism
Learning to trust yourself & the kinds of supports that can help guide you along the way to realizing the answers you’re seeking are already within you
The importance of finding your people & cultivating community care
How to build your work around your life in order to make the work more sustainable
Gabe’s advice for fellow seekers of alignment in work & life
About Gabe: Through my own ancestral healing journey, I’ve been gently guided to my life’s purpose of healing others. In this work, I channel spirit messages through clairvoyance (seeing) and clairsentience (feeling) to (re)connect folks to their own intuition and inner guidance.

#3. Being a Beginner SUCKS!
AND…there are things we can do to make it suck a little less. In this solo episode, I discuss what “the gap” is and my experience being in it over the past year, as a new business owner, podcaster, and emerging artist. I also share a few reframes & practices I’ve used that have helped me stay positive & better equipped to navigate the inevitable ups & downs of being a beginner.

#2. I’ll Go First
I wanted to share my own responses to some of the questions I plan to ask my future guests. So listen in and learn a bit more about my backstory, my current work, & whether or not I’m staying well while doing it…I’ll introduce my interviewer & friend, Gabe, when I turn the tables & interview them in an upcoming episode.

#1. The Why(s)
In this first solo episode, I’ll break down my reasons for starting this podcast. I’ll share what I personally hope to gain from doing it (connection through story-telling, learning, & avoiding social media marketing) along with what I hope listeners will take away from it (inspiration & encouragement to keep doin’ ur work, strength to keep fighting fascism, & courage to keep showing up imperfectly).
