Welcome, everyone, to the 62nd episode of Professor P's Podcast. And the launch of the Spring 2026 semester. I am coming with another dose of Elixir, that energetic fire that I love to bring to you all. Our topic is The POWER of INENTIONS and the KEYS to MASTER Them. #metaphysics

I want to begin by saying thank you to everyone who continues to listen, share, and support this podcast. This summer will mark four years of podcasting for me, and I don’t take this space lightly. I’m grateful to be able to pour into others with encouragement, wisdom, and truth.

In my first-quarter newsletter, I began a conversation around intentions and shared that I would continue it here. By the way, if you would like to be added to my email list to receive my quarterly newsletter, my email is below this transcript; just send me a message.

Intention is more than a wish or a goal. It’s an aim, a direction, and even a process of healing. When we approach intention through faith, it becomes a spiritual discipline and a partnership with God. Faith isn’t blind, and it isn’t disconnected from responsibility. It invites us to show up intentionally while trusting God with the outcome.

We were made in the image of the Creator, which means we are designed to build, create, and participate in what unfolds. Our thoughts, our words, and our actions matter. Scripture reminds us that what we sow bears fruit, and intention helps us stay aligned as we plant with care and integrity.

Mastering intention requires a few key practices: clarity about what we desire, action that aligns with our faith, gentle time frames that help us stay focused, surrender of outcomes, and gratitude throughout the process. Not everything unfolds the way we imagine, but faith allows us to trust that God delivers the vision, or something even better.

As you move through this week, I invite you to write a few intentions for your life, take small aligned steps, and practice gratitude along the way.

Welcome everyone to the 61st episode of Professor P's Podcast and the finale Fall 2025 Semester episode. I am bringing you another GUEST SPEAKER, Sara Rosales, with Mujerex Enterprise LLC. Our theme is from humble beginnings to building your empire. The POWER of BELIEF! #entrepreneurspotlight

Sara Rosales is the Founder and CEO of Mujerex Enterprise LLC. She is a proud Latina, born and raised in Oceanside, California. She came from humble beginnings where there was no exposure, resources, or opportunities for entrepreneurship. But from an early age, she knew the cultural power of collective community support. In 2020, she had the vision to create a company that would invest in, encourage, support, and lift her community by empowering other women and minority business owners and entrepreneurs with the tools used by large corporations to succeed in the business arena. Having managed legal corporate compliance for companies with assets of over 5 million dollars, she learned that large corporations are winning because they play by a different set of rules, and she believes all business owners deserve a piece of the pie!

Her mission is simple! To elevate women and minority business owners to the next level of their business through empowerment, education, and creating a supportive community. She seeks to provide like-minded business owners with the resources, support, and information to make strategic business decisions and invest back in their communities.

In 2011, Sara Rosales graduated from the University of California, Berkeley with a B.S. in Legal Studies. She received her Juris Doctorate from Thomas Jefferson School of Law. Her dream is to pay it forward, one small business at a time.

Welcome, everyone, to the 60th episode of Professor P's Podcast. This week, I am bringing you an Entrepreneurial Tip and an Empowered Life/Palumbo Principle. The topic for this show is BETA to be BETTER! #entrepreneurialtip #empoweredlife #palumboprinciple

“Beta to be Better”, the power of testing, trying, and putting things out into the world before you feel ready. So many of us get stuck waiting for the perfect moment, the perfect idea, the perfect version of ourselves… but perfection is a trap. Progress happens in the beta stage. That’s where clarity, direction, and confidence come from.

In this episode, I break down what it really means to create a Minimum Viable Product, an MVP, and why every entrepreneur needs to learn how to test their ideas early and often. I talk about how to build the simplest version of your concept, how to get real feedback from your market, and how to use data, not fear, to guide your next steps. But this isn’t just about business. Testing applies to our lives, too. When we allow ourselves to try new things, experiment, stretch, learn, and grow, we become stronger, clearer, and more aligned with who we’re becoming.

I also share why being open to testing is a form of empowerment. So many people never start because they’re afraid to fail, but the truth is this: failure is feedback. Movement is medicine. Action is activation. You grow as you go. And the moment you release the pressure to be perfect, you give yourself the freedom to evolve.

My hope is that this episode encourages you to take that next small step, to test your idea, test a new habit, test a new season of your life, and trust that every version you build is preparing you for the person you’re meant to be. Beta is not a weakness; it’s your superpower.
