Welcome to The Selfish Snob Podcast – this isn't just a podcast, it's a movement, a rebellion, a revolution for the high-achieving Latina, the product of immigrants, the eldest daughter, and the overachiever who is tired of playing by everyone else’s rules and is ready to create her own legacy.   If you’ve ever looked around your “successful” life and thought “Is this really it?”—this podcast is your permission slip to want more. Every Monday, we get real about how the "American Dream" sold to us by our families, schools, and society was a lie—and how to finally walk away from the life you were supposed to live to build the life you actually want. We’re breaking down: The myths of stability meant to keep you living small The pressure to make everyone proud—at the cost of your own joy How to rediscover your voice, purpose, and power without guilt This isn’t just a podcast. It’s a rebellion against living small. We’re talking fulfillment, purpose, bold decisions, and how to become the most selfishly aligned version of yourself. We aren't here to get approval from others, we're here to lead our own legacies--selfishly, and unapologetically! Tune in every Monday and be sure to follow the show so you never miss an update!   Let's Connect: 🌐 Website: www.LuvUGurl.com 📲 TikTok: @DrOnaysiaMartinez 📸 Instagram: @DrOnaysiaMartinez 💼 LinkedIn: Dr. Onaysia Martinez
