A first-generation Latina looking to make a positive change in the world. One voice at-a-time. One story at-a-time. One connection at-at-time.  Based in Houston, Raquel has dedicated herself to healthcare advocacy and healthcare education for the last 12 years. 

Having a multi-lingual background, she has been able to expand her reach by educating different neighborhood groups around the Houston area. Through her efforts, many members of the communities who otherwise would go without proper health care have benefitted from her advocacy and received health services.  Her efforts have decreased the high percentage of members who go without basic health needs. 

She works directly with state, city, county, and other local officials to educate communities on important health topics. Raquel is also involved in active research in partnership with various entities such as her world-renowned alma mater Texas A&M University, BakerRipley, and the City of Houston.  This active research aims to identify the external environmental factors which may cause physical stressors on the elderly when participating in physical activities within their communities. Based on the results of the research, enhancements will be made to improve the neighborhood surroundings to be more age-friendly. 

Raquel possesses excellent leadership skills and is looking forward to building a coachable team that will increase the reach potential thus expanding the efforts of her "Mission with a vision". She looks forward to empowering women and contribute globally to spread her message of love and kindness to the world.

Raquel has called Houston her home for the last 30 years. She is a sports enthusiast and labels herself "gung-ho" about all things "Aggies".  Avid salsa dancer. Foodie. Lives with her furbabies and children. Enjoys the beach and quality time exploring the city and seeking adventures. Raquel is currently working on publishing her book and looks forward to sharing her life journey through speaking engagements.

Turning Authenticity into Influence | Houston Sports Gal | Fierce Mental Health Advocate| | "LIVE, LOVE, LEAD" | OWN Your Essence | | Encouraging humanity to "Educate, Empower, and Uplift".

As a Social Media Director at Brilliant Beam Media, my days are fueled by crafting strategies that not only captivate but also drive results for both B2B and B2C ventures. Fluent in Spanish-speaking and Spanish to English translation, I've had the privilege of bridging cultural gaps and amplifying brand voices across diverse audiences.

Beyond the boardroom, I wear the badges of a Walking Tall Movement Ambassador and a proud member of The Outlier Project with immense pride. These roles aren't just titles; they're opportunities to pay it forward. My heart beats for empowering fellow Latino entrepreneurs, especially the resilient women who navigate through cultural and personal barriers with grace and grit.

Through the intimate avenues of my podcast, coaching sessions, and the pages of my soon-to-be-released book, "Culture Clash," I don't just share stories—I share journeys. My own journey from the tumultuous streets of El Salvador to the corridors of opportunity in the United States serves as a beacon of hope. But more importantly, it's a roadmap for those who dare to dream, guiding them from the realm of possibility to the realm of action.

My mission is simple yet profound: to give voice to the voiceless, to provide platforms for the overlooked, and to equip aspiring entrepreneurs with the tools they need to thrive. And as we continue on this transformative journey together, let's not forget the power of community. On LinkedIn, I've cultivated not just connections but a family—a tribe of diverse souls united by shared dreams and mutual support.

Join me, not just as a spectator, but as a fellow architect of change. Together, let's shatter barriers, rewrite narratives, and pave the way for a future where every dream is not just realized but celebrated.

I Help Time-Poor Entrepreneurs and C-Suite Execs Transform their Health

I help male CEOs (business owners) over 50 become calm, strong, energised & in control—without living in the gym, following fads, or relying on willpower that disappears the moment travel and pressure hit.

If business is thriving but your energy, waistline, sleep, or bloodwork are sliding, this is built for you.

Each month, my team and I take on a small number of CEOs (business owners) over 50 (and, where relevant, their senior leadership teams) inside our signature 16‑Week CEO Health Reset (formerly Rapid Result System™). It’s a boardroom-friendly approach designed to survive real schedules—and stick.

Why CEOs (business owners) join us (and why they stay)

→ Favourite business shirts/jackets no longer fit
→ Energy is too low for business, training, and family
→ Persistent worry about long-term health, bloodwork, and heart risk
→ Feeling burnt out—success coming at too high a personal cost
→ A body that feels inflamed, stiff, or out of shape
→ You’ve tried apps, trainers, diets… and it never survived your schedule

How we work

We start with a CEO Health Diagnostic & Review, then build a simple, personalised plan around:
• Simple science nutrition (no extremes)
• High-impact training blocks (time-efficient + travel-proof)
• Accountability under pressure (so it happens during busy weeks)

We use smart tools where helpful, but the coaching is human-led and hands-on—because results at this level come from judgement, context, and execution (not generic templates).

Proof from our clients

• Mark Balaam, CEO: 3 stone lost in 10 weeks; confidence and energy back
• James Taylor, MD: off blood pressure meds; performing at a new level
• Billy Power, MD: golf pain-free; leading at full throttle again
• Tamara Gillan, CEO: 16 lbs lost in 6 weeks — sharper, leaner, and back in control

Ready for the next step?

If you’re a CEO (business owner) over 50, complete the Executive Health Diagnostic — click “Visit my website.”

From there, you can request an Executive Diagnostic Call.

All places are offered based on readiness and fit (we keep capacity intentionally limited so the coaching stays personal).

Prefer DM? Message me “RESET”, and I’ll send the Diagnostic link.

Body Transformation Vs Health Transformation

Had a great chat with the editor of a well-known London City newspaper about his health and fitness journey. 

• He's a 43-year-old busy professional.
• He has to commute to the office every day
• He has events and lunch meetings
• He has a lot on his plate

He described to me his previous efforts to get in shape.

Over the years, he had been through 2 body transformation programmes with well-known (very good) London-based personal trainers.

He shared his before and after shots; he looked incredible.

But here he was talking to me about his desire to run through a third body transformation programme.

We chatted for a while about his goals, his commute, and his business responsibilities. 

It became clear that the idea of stripping fat, bodybuilding, and dialling in his calories, all for the goal of creating before-and-after shots, wasn't as appealing as it once was.

As we get older, our health goals shift.

We want to be around for our kids, we want to keep doing the things we love, we want to avoid BIG health issues, and we want to be at the top of our business game for the long haul. 

Here's how mine have changed

👉 I used to care about big biceps, now I care about my VO2 Max
👉 I used to care about flat abs, now I care about optimal sleep
👉 I used to care about protein supplements, now I care about energy
👉 I used to care about sprint speed, now I care about general strength

It's January 2026, and the pressure to lose weight and 'get healthy' is at its peak.

You're being bombarded by body transformation offers, Jane Plan, Professor Tim Spector, Herbalife, food delivery and Dry Jane apps.

All of these solutions have their place, but ask yourself, "Are they going to help me achieve my short-term goals and allow me to maintain them forever despite my crazy business schedule?"

Join me this Friday, 9th January 2026, 1:30 pm for my live online workshop, where I'll walk you through our 5-step process.

My goal is to show you the foundations of health so that you can build your own health programme, or at least explore options with more understanding of what will work for you

This is an interactive workshop, and I want to answer any questions that come up, so I'm keeping the group small. There are 2 spaces available.
