In this episode of TechQuiero Más, Viv breaks down the practical steps she took to start overcoming generational poverty as a first-gen eldest daughter.

This wasn’t just a mindset — it was a strategy.

She walks through:

• Why leaning on resources and community is important

• Opening a HYSA and building an emergency fund

• Teaching yourself how investing works

• Paying off debt with intention

• Increasing your income — both short-term and long-term

Then we answer three community questions:

💰 Money:How did you pay off debt as a married couple — and where should we invest?

💼 Career:How can I pivot into analytics or tech if my background feels “out of place”?

💗 Love:How did your career shift impact your relationship?

If you’re the eldest daughter trying to change your family’s financial future while still building your own, this episode is for you.

Welcome to the very first episode of TechQuiero Más

In this debut episode, Viv and Xavi share the real story behind their journey — from being first-generation college graduates with limited financial guidance to building careers in tech and creating stability on their own terms.

We talk about how we met, how our career paths evolved after graduation, and what it actually looks like to support each other through big career changes, debt, ambition, and big dreams — without losing ourselves in the process.

Then we answer three powerful questions from our community:

• What actually helped Viv get out of debt — better jobs, budgeting systems, books, or something else entirely?

• How do we support each other’s career growth without competing or sacrificing our own goals?

• How do you help immigrant parents build financial security when you’re still figuring it out yourself?

If you’re first-gen, building wealth from scratch, navigating money in your relationship, or trying to break generational cycles, this episode is for you.
