What does it take to truly become the person you’re meant to be? In this inspiring and vulnerable episode of The Present Professional, career mindset coach Yanet Borrego shares her powerful story of reinvention—from escaping Cuba as a child to climbing the ranks of corporate America, and ultimately finding her purpose as a transformational coach.

Yanet’s journey is a masterclass in courage, clarity, and conscious choice. She opens up about how fear, burnout, and inherited definitions of success can keep us stuck in identities that no longer serve us—and how we can break free by rewriting our internal programming. Drawing from her expertise in NLP, coaching, and meditation, Yanet offers practical tools and deep wisdom for those ready to create change on purpose, not just in response to pain.
