We have made the decision to postpone this week’s business social. The primary reason for this is that I Today with Jose have been experiencing chronic fatigue related to my post-cancer treatment, which has affected my ability to devote the necessary time and energy to the event.

We will announce a new date shortly and appreciate your understanding.

Hey Savannah Friends!

I’m so excited to invite you to Tom Triplett Park this Sunday to kick off Hispanic Heritage Month! I’ll be at the main pavilion from 10 AM to 4 PM, soaking in the Caribbean vibes with some amazing Latin music—think salsa, bachata, and merengue. I’d love for you to join me!

We can take a walk through the beautiful park, check out the local vendors, and grab some snacks or lunch from the food trucks. Then, let’s head over to the pavilion to meet and mingle. It’s going to be a fun and relaxed way to connect with new friends and celebrate the start of this special month.

Can’t wait to see you there!

P.S. Come and meet some pups with Renegade Paws Rescue, get your dog snacks with Capone's Barkery.

🚨 Warning: This post might be a bit long, but I promise it’s worth the read! 🚨

As we approach the end of 2024, I'm reflecting on what has been a whirlwind year of outdoor events. WOW, WHAT A RIDE! We've had our fair share of ups and downs, wins and losses.

Honestly, I could write a book about the experiences we've had with these events and markets. Some of the behind-the-scenes moments would shock many of you! But what has been most challenging is the emotional and mental toll this journey has taken on me—especially after my battle with cancer. It's been tough, to say the least.

Here's a truth that applies to both business and life: "You can't please everybody. For every decision you make, someone will hate it or love it; they'll either applaud or criticize you." This has been especially true with these events and markets. But here's the key: never let that stop you from moving forward!

One important thing I've learned is that for markets to be successful, both the promoter and vendors need to be aligned with a common goal: attendance. Without people showing up, vendors can’t make sales. And without vendors, there’s no market, and no funds to advertise and draw in more people.

If we were to set up a market in Times Square, we wouldn’t need much advertising—it already has traffic. But if you set up a market in a less-known location like Tom Triplett Park in Pooler, where even some locals don’t know it exists, then you need a lot more advertising. This is where the vendor fees come in: they go toward advertising. Lower fees mean less money for promotion. This concept has caused a lot of debates and challenges.

There have been other issues with our markets that we are actively trying to address. Some of you are aware, and others may not be, but not being able to fix everything immediately has been stressful. I can only hope that with persistence and hard work, we’ll overcome these challenges. I’m truly sorry for any inconvenience caused.

If you’ve made it this far down the post, thank you for sticking with me! 🙏

I want to end on a positive note. I’m working hard with some great people to build a stronger community around our events and upcoming video content. We're also focusing on creating more opportunities to connect with businesses through our Business Socials and collaborating with several key organizations.

To everyone who has stood by my side and continues to work with me to achieve great things—thank you. And to my fellow cancer warriors, my heart is with every one of you. I know how tough your journey is, but you've got this! 💪❤️

UPDATE: What a great turnout to our first Social event! Thank you to everyone who worked so hard to make this happen.

If you see this post and attended our event, please comment below on your experience because we got nothing but great feedback from everyone.

I think that what everyone should know is that our events are more than just meet and greet. We have a full on program of activities throughout the 3 hour experience. It's meant to have us connect from a community and personal level, than just exchange business cards.

There were so many new faces... again... thank you for coming.

I invite you to visit our website and add your email to our newsletter and you will be sent updates on our next events. Stay tuned we're coming to Rincon!

Thank you to Metropolitan Savannah Hispanic Chamber of Commerce who has encouraged me to remind others that I am a Hispanic owned business here in Georgia, GROW Initiative GA, Rosie Harrison who has been working so hard to help connect us with the community, Reneé LaSalle who has been with Live Like Locals since it's beginning, Shena Verrett who has helped so much in keeping Live Like Locals relevant during my cancer journey. Clay Hodges who has always been involved

Thank you to our inspiring new hosts Gabriela Nuno, Dhylles Victoria, Rosalinda Patino Cietek from This Wombman, Madai Tavera, Save Sea Life with Liddy, Christin Nicole Clever, Stephanie Cherry Olubowale, Diya Patel from Paramparã The essence of India.

UPDATE: Ever since I found out that my cancer is in remission I have been non-stop go go go. It's crazy how some people glorify having your own business... guess what... sometimes it would be nice to just punch the clock, work the 9 to 5, and have your weekends off.

When was the last time an entrepreneur/business owner in the middle of ramping up a business felt like they could take every weekend off and just work 40 hours a week!!! It hasn't been me.

I know I need to take some time to myself and I'm working on it, but it's been great all the accomplishments my team has made. I am surrounding myself with some awesome entrepreneurs, businesses and organizations that really want to BUILD something.

Although I finish each day exhausted... it's exciting to see what we're putting together.

Someone today informed me that this month is Cancer Survivor Month. It's a time to celebrate and honor the millions of people who have beat cancer and think of those loved ones who are currently undergoing treatment.

It's not the club that I thought I would be a part of but I am now, prior to my cancer journey, I went through life rather healthy and never really thought about how cancer affects the lives of so many and now that my journey has changed to one of survivorship. I want to make efforts to keep supporting those that are currently in the fight and always remain humble by remembering my own journey.

I'm working on an idea for this month that I hope to share with you all.

Cancer Update: I just want to share with everyone that I am officially 2 years in remission. What that means for my type of cancer, which was Stage 4 Hodgkins Lymphoma, is that I no longer need to get monthly preventive chemo treatments and I'm cancer free.

Although, we can't ever say never, the chance of it returning are slim.

Thank you to all of you that encouraged me during my fight and remember to always check in with those you love that are fighting this horrible disease. It's not easy!

I have so much to share with everyone and hope you all stay connected as I continue to share my journey through recovery and as a business owner and entrepreneur.

So excited to share... stay tuned.
