Emotional wellness, in Spanish, for the Latina woman who holds everything together.

Margarita Foss, CPLC. Master Certified Life Coach, author, speaker and podcaster. Austin and Leander, Texas.

Her story

Margarita arrived in the United States from Colombia in 2004 with her children. She built a career as a dental hygienist in Texas and, from the outside, had it all. In 2018, after two hours of driving in silence, she asked herself a question she could not put down: how can I teach my children to be happy if I don’t know how to be happy myself? That question became a method, De la Reacción a la Calma™ (From Reaction to Calm), and a practice dedicated to Latina women who carry everyone else first.
