About this listen

In episode two of season three of It Makes Scents, I open up about my evolving relationship with my own voice... how I went from cringing at it to embracing it, and even receiving some hilarious (and flattering) compliments along the way. I also share parts of my story: growing up between Puerto Rico and the Midwest, the twists and turns of my life, and how creativity and plants helped pull me out of the heaviness of postpartum depression.

I talk about how my love for perfume began, how it grew into an obsession, and how winter changes the way fragrance behaves on our skin. I also share tips on choosing scents that thrive in colder weather, and why I believe wearing perfume—especially to special events—is an essential part of showing up fully.

This episode is an invitation into the cozy, comforting rituals of wintertime perfumery, wrapped in personal stories, warmth, and a little humor.
