Ep. 15 – Jeannette Ceja – Travel Expert & Founder of JetSet with Jeannette

Jeannette Ceja

Check out my conversation with Jeannette Ceja who started JetSet with Jeannette to highlight and help diversify the travel industry. She has won countless awards and been recognized internationally for her contributions to travel journalism.

I wanted to talk with Jeannette because as I am sure a lot of us are going through the travel blues. 2020 has been a rollercoaster and for travel-lovers like myself has been a bummer. On the episode we hear Jeannette’s story on how she became an icon in the travel industry, her red-carpet stories and how she navigates the gate-keepers in achieving her goals.

Ep. 5 – Oscar Benitez, Director for Third Sector Capital & Color Commentator of Los Jets en Español

Oscar Benitez

Today’s episode brings us another Oscar but this one is very different. (of course in a good way) Raised in LA by his single mother, he and his mom knew how important education was in life being a ticket to success in the United States. Also a little football talk – JETS fans should be excited!

On the episode we talk about our own internal challenges with identity and our “Latino-ness”. We also how talk about relocating to colleges where we found out there are huge differences in not only our latino counterparts from other Latin American backgrounds but also with our international peers from Latin America.

It’s a great episode in learning that we always need to hustle and put our best work forward. Also, I think the biggest gem is looking at different career paths to find and learn the skills that will allow you to shine in your future career goals. You have to listen to find out what I mean by this and I hope you find the same motivation I did when hearing Oscar’s story.

Los Jets en Español

We close the episode with some football talk and how he became the commentator for Los Jets en Español. A side gig he has been jet-setting coast to coast doing for the past 10 seasons. Enjoy!
