Episode 205: Event Planning 101 with Evelyn Jimenez of @HarlowPlanning

2019SMS051119_434.jpg

Time for a new episode! This week we talk to Evelyn Jimenez of Harlow Planning. Now a major part of team Super Mamas (she turns our SM Social dreams into reality ✨), she was one of our first guests on the show and now she’s back with updates. Evelyn talks about how she made the jump from corporate life to running her event company full time and how you need to be confident & relentless when it comes to following your dreams. Plus she shares tips on how to throw your own event!

Before the interview, we talk about how summer is winding down but we still have lots of plans. Paulina is working out everyday and Bricia has a trip to Baja this weekend. Also, the book is coming out in just a few months and you can pre-order it on Target, Amazon and Barnes & Noble now! Screenshot your pre-orders and tag us on Instagram - you know we love and appreciate your support! 😝

Pick or Tip of the Week

Paulina’s tip is to pack ahead of time for a trip. When she was getting ready to leave to Oaxaca, she realized she normally leaves packing to the last minute, but for this trip she started packing a few days early and packed her essentials like deodorant + makeup right before she left. It helped her feel a lot less stressed, especially since she was traveling with the baby.

Bricia’s tip is loving Babe Waves Hair Waving Iron from theproductjunkie.com. She has the straightest hair, but this wand gives her mermaid hair. It’s not beach waves, but mermaid hair. It takes a while but it has a really good tutorial and she is obsessed! Also, please pre-order the book. 🙏🏽

It’s our 200th episode! We’re celebrating this major milestone with a special guest - our favorite 😉 brother, Fernando Lopez. This week, we talk to Fernando about how much his life has changed since our last interview with him. From his recent surprise wedding to realizing he’s ready to prepare for a secure financial future (#adulting), Fernando has basically grown up in a month and we’re very proud sisters! 

Before the interview, Bricia talks about her successful Hawaiian vacation of piña coladas with tequila añejo and I Love Micheladas mix, and Paulina shares how she survived five hours in the car across the border with her kids.

Pick or Tip of the Week

Fernando has a lot of picks this week. He has been learning all things real estate so he’s informed when he’s ready to buy a new property. He loves listening to the Bigger Pockets Podcast - the earlier episodes are his favorite! He also enjoys watching real estate agent and investor, Stephan Graham, on YouTube. His final tips are true gems: “Wear sunscreen, get a good hat, and get a bottle of I love Micheladas mix and make drinks at home with your friends instead of going to the bar.”

Paulina has two picks this week. First, she loves Airbnb. It’s easy and has great deals if you search far enough in advance. Second, she’s had some trouble keeping her hair color purple and doesn’t want to go to the salon for a touch up every three weeks, but since she started using Celeb Luxury Viral Colorwash and it has made a huge difference keeping her purple nice and vibrant.

Finally, Bricia also echoes Fernando’s tip about wearing sunscreen. She is loving Sun Bum Original Moisturizing Lotion. Whether you use SPF 15, 30 or 50, it doesn’t leave you all white and she didn’t peel or burn. Fernando also suggests a big hat from Home Depot, but to each their own. 😉
