Name: Paola Rivera
Age: 25
Title: Marketing Director of LashBomb and Medical Social Worker
Married/Single: ENGAGED to my sweetie!
Kids: not yet, but one day!
City you live in: Phoenix
A typical day in my life includes…
content planning and plotting for future endeavors.
I was born…
on an island that resembles a rice grain on the map, Puerto Rico.
My favorite thing about Arizona…
is the amazing sunsets and Sedona’s red rocks.
I’m listening to…
blinding lights by the Weeknd.
My family…
is full of laughter and genuine love.
If I could have dinner with anyone, it would be…
Beyonce because she is the QUEEN of all things!
One thing I cannot live without…
SUBWAY!!! (dm me for my order if you are a vegetarian too or just like a lot of vegetables I got an order for you!)
When I was younger, I wanted to be…
a lawyer or a “backstage” dancer which later my brother clarified was the wrong term. I actually meant a background dancer.
I’m inspired by…
my two best friends Bianca Shelman and Brynn Jones. Both of these women have shown me what it means to be a good friend and to bring value/knowledge to a healthy friendship. Their actions and drive push me to want to be better and elevate myself.
The one person who motivates me is…
my fiance Jason. He is constantly pushing me to be a better person every single day and to never settle for the small peanuts (small victories) when there’s a big bag (lifetime of success) at the finish line. Whenever I feel overwhelmed or unable to achieve a task he reassures me that I am capable and I CAN DO IT!
If I could change anything in the world, it would be…
the ability for everyone to have their basic needs of life met as a minimum.
The perfect day would be…
filled with great outdoor weather, delicious food, and a solid workout outside near Tempe Town Lakes.
My first job…
was at Prestige Dance Academy which is where I started dancing at the age of 5.
My favorite escape…
is my bedroom with my diffuser running with eucalyptus oil and Netflix on the tv as I browse Instagram or watch YouTube clothing hauls.
My life…
is beginning to mold into the life I used to dream of having. I feel content in my career path and feel genuine love by people I choose to keep in my circle.
I’m currently working on…
a community event that builds hope and motivation for women that are survivors of domestic violence and/or sexual abuse. This event will include self-care, resume building, interview tactics, motivational conversation, and provide a sense of community and inspiration.
Always…
remember that your situation could be worse and treat everyone with kindness
Never…
doubt your ability to achieve all the dreams that you desire.
Favorite Quote…
“You wouldn’t have the desire if you didn’t have the ability to achieve it.”
Biggest Dream…
after being involved in my fiance’s care home business for geriatric care I would love to open one of my own one day that is centered around a mind and body approach.
My Pet Peeve(s) …
when someone chews with their mouth open.
