My Biography

I am Viviana Pass, a Colombian woman who emigrated to the United States ten years ago and had a transformation from the very least to the greatest in her personal and professional life.

 

The first time I entered the United States was in 2014 and I had no connection or compatibility with life in the United States. Without sufficient reasons or motives to extend my stay, I returned to my native country and after a few months, I realized that in the United States I had felt something that deep inside me, invited me to return.

 

I returned to this new country without any concrete plan, but with the intention of remaking my life in this new place. Without telling anyone, I made the decision and returned. I didn't have many options to stabilize myself economically, so like most immigrants, I set myself up with entrepreneurial work options and thought of possible livelihood with my savings.

 

Once in the United States, I came face to face with the reality of commerce, consumption and the economy of this new country. Thinking about rethinking my life, I understood that my first need was to learn English. And in my process of starting to study, I had many denials and obstacles to get started. My Colombian passport was my first document for the first registration in classes, however, the place where I had been accepted, did not have the requirement, which challenged me to look for new options, and later, I achieved it.

 

From contact to contact, I found work in Latino places where I did not find the reciprocity I wanted to find. As a Colombian woman, I was excited to be able to advance with my own community, however, it cost me a lot to open up the opportunities I wanted to receive.

 

My instinctive voice was triggered when I started listening to it. I lived many moments doubting my own voice and that intuition that told me to trust my decisions. Finally, at one point I understood that the greatest challenge a human being can achieve is self-confidence. And that's when my instinct finds its own voice and I decide to listen to it, trusting it.

 

At what point did I connect with my voice? Usually, after finishing working at night, I liked to visit a spot I had in the first neighborhood where I lived. On that little hill I would proclaim and say out loud, talking to God telling him I'm ready and my moment is now.

 

The power of the word and the honest manifestation that is born from the heart, foretold my wishes: my house, my job, my husband and my profession.

And what do I mean when I talk about foretelling? The genuine act of giving thanks for what I have before it comes to me. With clarity in my goals and believing in my intuition, at the top of that hill I started claiming what belonged to me.

 

And as the encounter is a miraculous act, the universe put in my path a person who was my guardian angel in the United States. Sarah, that person who trusted in the energy of a flyer I had left on her door; that woman who honestly felt a connection with me, changed my life and became my earthly angel for years. The two of us understood, from a first conversation, that we could trust each other mutually and that she had something for me and I had something for her. Sarah and I saved each other.

 

My life stabilized, I started creating new dreams and for a time I worked as an Uber driver. In the valuable exercise of listening to others, attending to their words, seeing how other realities existed that were so different yet so close to my own reality, and of course, trusting completely in my instinct for the first time, I decide to "take the leap" and take a risk without thinking about what will come next. I only had one clarity: I would stay in the United States creating a new life.

 

By 2020 I had become a woman who lives with her feet more firmly on the ground, with an open consciousness and a new purpose: to become a Life Coach. And like all the decisions we make come with changes, I was no exception, my life changed.

 

When we think about making our dreams come true, there are means and ways that we need to do it. For me there was only one option, only one University where I wanted to study. Against all odds, overcoming "buts" and obstacles in registration processes, I trusted my instinct and listened to my heart.

 

How did I do it? Through a methodology I designed that consists of manifestations, gratitude and a lot of discipline and perseverance to achieve the objectives I outlined in my dream map: connecting what I want.

 

I sent my application and in less than two months I had my welcome letter. And most surprising of all, I received a scholarship with my studies paid for. From the lessons this stage left me with, in a year and a half I finished my process because that's how I set out to do it, with discipline and perseverance. Without giving up or accepting a "no", the determination I made at this moment in my life marked a before and after. At that moment, for the first time, I had a real connection with myself and I had faith in me. I connected with the idea of thinking that I deserve it, I learned to receive what is mine and to build nobility in my heart.

 

If you ask me with which word I would define my process, I think of everything behind being resilient. Adapting to different realities, overcoming moments of tension, being brave to show vulnerability, and above all, not being afraid to take risks for new purposes.

 

In 2022 I had the great fortune to experience three of my greatest achievements. The first was that the United States accepted me as a citizen. After this big step, I was also accepted to universities with a very high difficulty for admission. And around the time I was walking with great conviction that this is my place, a new light came into my life: my first pregnancy.

 

Today I want to invite you to live this new stage with me. If I learned to believe in the power that lives within us, you can too, without limits or objections, we are capable of transforming from the very least to the greatest.

 

There is closure as the beginning of a new era, and today I invite you to trust your instinct and take ownership of the desires of your heart, because if your mind believes it your body achieves it.
