In this episode, my guest is Diego Perez, also known as Yung Pueblo—a writer, meditator, and author of the new book The Way Forward. We explore his personal journey of self-healing, discussing how to reconnect with our intuition and build self-trust.

Diego shares how embracing meditation and self-awareness transformed his life, helping him overcome personal challenges. We delve into the importance of being present with our emotions, the practice of self-compassion, and the process of letting go to move forward.

We also discuss the dynamics of relationships and the role personal growth plays within them. Diego offers insights on cultivating healthy partnerships through kindness, compassion, and a mutual willingness to grow.

This episode provides listeners with guidance and practical tools for their own paths of healing and personal development. It's especially valuable for anyone seeking to deepen their self-understanding and navigate life's changes with confidence.
