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.

Welcome, everyone, to the 59th episode of Professor P's Podcast. I am coming with another dose of Elixir. My energetic fire is still there, but to be very honest, my heart is very real and raw in this week's episode. Our topic today is The HEART of SERVICE #truthbettold.

This past weekend has been heavy for me. My daughter’s been struggling, and I’ve been holding her up while trying to keep myself steady. In the middle of it all, the Holy Spirit whispered, “This is the heart of service.” And that hit me deep. Because service isn’t glamorous, it’s sacrifice. It’s praying through tears, showing up when you’re tired, and loving when it hurts. Real service costs something.

I thought about all who serve: parents, teachers, caregivers, veterans, and ministers. People who give even when they’re running on empty. God sees that. He sees you. The enemy may try to shake the servant, but the Word says, “No weapon formed against you shall prosper.” If you’re weary, remember, your service matters. God hasn’t forgotten you. The same hands that serve others are the hands He will strengthen. So, this week, I’m praying, “Lord, steady my heart and remind me why I said yes.” Because the heart of service is the heart of Christ, and that’s where I want to stay.

Jump into today’s episode to hear my very real and raw moment with you as I share my heart of service. Remember to connect with me on social media. My handles are below. And I would love for you to subscribe, leave me a review, and share this podcast with everyone you know.

Welcome, everyone, to the 58th 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 The CONFIDENCE to get STARTED! #entrepreneurialtip #empoweredlife #palumboprinciple

Big shoutout to my Business Promotions class at MiraCosta College for helping me out with today’s topic. I was so inspired today with all the different topics they gave me, and in this episode, I touch on a few, but the one that really resonated was inspired by one of my students who said, “Professor, my friends are so talented, but they don’t have the confidence to put themselves out there.” That hit me hard because I’ve been there too, full of ideas, full of potential, but unsure if I was ready.

This episode is here to activate your belief and remind you of the power you already possess. Confidence isn’t something you wait to feel. It’s something you build through action. You grow as you go. I’ll share how taking up space, learning as you grow, and believing in your purpose can completely shift your mindset and your momentum.

I also want to give you some practical tools to get started, because confidence grows when you’re moving. I talk about free resources through the SBA (www.sba.gov), online workshops, and the next simple steps you can take right now to start building your business. I am also gifting you all with a free 1:1 session with me. For whatever you need. I am here for you. Just email me. I want you to understand that we collaborate more than we compete in this world, and that what you are called to create, only you can create.

This episode is all about activating your power, sharpening your faith, and taking that first bold step toward your goals. I want you to believe in yourself, in your ideas, and in the impact you are meant to make. Because the next level of your life is waiting, and it starts with the confidence to begin.

Welcome, everyone, to the 57th episode of Professor P's Podcast. I am coming with another dose of Elixir, that energetic power you all love so much! Our topic today is The POWER of FAITH #mastery.

Faith is the spiritual force that not only moves mountains but anchors our souls in both this life and the eternal one to come. Faith isn’t just believing in what you can see, it’s believing because you know who God is. In this episode, I remind you that faith is not passive; it’s active, alive, and essential for every believer who desires to walk in divine alignment and purpose.

Through real talk, scripture, and heart activation, I invite my listeners to lift their hands, those waiting on promises, breakthroughs, and open doors, and receive a fresh wind of faith. You’ll be reminded that while faith may not always make sense, it always makes way.

This episode will stir your spirit, strengthen your trust, and reignite your belief that what God promised, He will perform.

And you know, I love to give homework! So, every day this week, speak by faith over something you’re believing for. Don’t just wish for it, work your faith. Write one declaration of faith daily, thank God in advance, and take one small action step toward it. Remember: Faith without works is dead.

Welcome, everyone, to the 56th 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 The COST of doing BUSINESS and the number ONE INVESTMENT. #entrepreneurialtip #empoweredlife #palumboprinciple

In this episode, I unpack the real cost of doing business and reveal the deeper truth about your number one investment: YOU! I share practical insights on the hidden expenses every entrepreneur must plan for, such as insurance, cash flow, and monthly overhead, reminding us that while you don’t need to start big, you do need to start with wisdom.

But I don’t stop at business. I draw a powerful parallel to life itself, teaching that personal growth also carries a cost, and the greatest return comes when we consistently invest in ourselves. From professional development and spiritual growth to health and rest, I challenge my listeners to recognize the price of mastery, honor themselves as their greatest asset, and build a legacy that ripples into future generations.

This empowering episode will leave you inspired to treat yourself like the empire you’re building. So, jump in now and remember to reach out if you are interested in a topic or if you want to be a guest speaker.

Welcome, everyone, to the 55th episode of Professor P's Podcast. I am back for the Fall Semester, and I couldn’t be more excited to be with you all. I am kicking us off in true Professor Palumbo fashion, and I am coming with a dose of Elixir, that energetic power. Our topic today is The JOURNEY #mastery.

Everyone wants the destination—the breakthrough, the answer, the promise fulfilled. But it’s the journey that shapes us, heals us, and grows us. The journey is where God teaches us who we really are, and who He really is.

Here’s the thing, though: sometimes on the journey, we stop moving. We get stuck. We take a campground—something that was meant to be temporary—and try to make it a permanent home. Maybe it’s a place of pain. Maybe it’s a comfort zone. Maybe it’s just familiarity. But the journey isn’t about staying—it’s about growing.

You can’t let a season that was meant to shape you turn into a prison that defines you. Don’t camp where God called you to pass through. Trust the process of the journey. Even when it’s slow, even when it’s uncomfortable, even when it feels like everyone else is “further ahead.”

Enjoy the journey. Let yourself notice the small victories, the unexpected blessings, the ways God provides strength for each step. You don’t have to rush. You don’t have to compare. You don’t have to camp in yesterday’s grief or yesterday’s success.

Because God’s process is perfect. And when you trust His process, you’ll realize the journey isn’t wasted time—it’s the very thing that prepares you for the promise.

Questions to ask your listeners while speaking:

• Where have you been camping that God only meant you to pass through?
• Are you trusting the process of your journey, or are you fighting it?
• What would it look like for you to enjoy the season you’re in right now, even before the destination?

Homework / Call to Action: This week, write down three things about your current journey that you can be grateful for. Not the destination, not what you’re waiting on—but right here, right now. Then pray over them and thank God for being with you on the journey.

Welcome, everyone, to the 54th episode of Professor P's Podcast. I am bringing you a PS dose of Elixir. Today's topic is not a topic at all. It is a personal invitation.

I’m inviting you into something I’ve been carrying in my heart and spirit for years — The Way Out is Within. If you’ve heard me say it before, you know it’s more than a phrase. It’s a call to go deeper. A reminder that true healing begins from the inside out. And now, it’s being born into a digital tool designed to support women in their healing, wholeness, and spiritual wellness.

With raw vulnerability and unwavering faith, I am inviting you to be part of the beta group and reminding you that true healing doesn’t come from the outside — it begins within. Whether you are walking through grief, rebuilding after trauma, seeking clarity in your spiritual journey, or just in need of a sacred space to breathe, this is for you.

Join the first wave of women to experience the power of this free, faith-based wellness tool by signing up at www.thewayoutiswithin.com

I’ll be back in the Fall semester — with more power, more boldness, and fresh oil ready to pour out. Until then, keep going, keep healing, and keep trusting that the way out is always within.
