Description

In this episode of Cozypreneur, I’m joined by my sister, Lesley Braga, a project and operations manager with a background in wealth management, compliance, and process improvement. But today’s conversation goes beyond career talk—we’re diving into business, family, and what it means to be first-generation immigrants navigating work and success.

We share our personal experiences with entrepreneurship, the reality of building a career as first-gen Americans, and how privilege and support systems play a crucial role in long-term success. We also explore the importance of efficiency and systems in both business and daily life, plus a few thoughts on why the “everyone has the same 24 hours” mindset needs to go.
