And now, without further Ado, let's start this episode. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did. Let you leave afterwards looking up. I'm so honored to be Present to y'all.

A good friend of mine that I've known since high school, Lord, and a belt from that is going to be talking to us, about a breath of things from Cannabis, to being a mother to being a Healer to managing her son's career as he explodes in the public eye and all things in between a here to leave you looking up towards the stars and Beyond Lottie como estas. Welcome, good. As yes, I'm here and you'll thank you so much. Much for the invitation. I'm so happy to share with you guys.

We have some questions lined up for you. But like how you doing today? How's it going what today's dear that is what's those? That's correct day of the death. It's a very important Day in Mexico. Everybody is at the cemetery visiting their loved ones or just visiting different places in Mexico. So there's a lot going on naughty for our guests and for us to, I mean we've known each other for more than a decade. Now how would you describe yourself?

Okay, that could be a tricky. Question socially. Mmm, how I see myself single mom that has always had Big Dreams and always trying to find the right place to be in terms of feelings and intuition where you feel good, right? And that's why my journey throughout the years have taken me to so many places and live. So many Frances, I went to school for filmmaking and for me, filmmaking and studying communication, brought a lot of dreams to my head.

I wanted to be famous. I want to do write scripts, I wanted to act, I wanted to direct produce. I got the chance to produce my own place. I did The Vagina Monologues and other place down in Mexico. So I was surrounded in that world, the entertainment world and then Alan came. Into the picture of my son and I became a single mom very early. So I had to change a few things in my life with the new baby and I think it's hard to say, who am I? I've been an actress.

I've been a news anchor. I am a mom. I also been an advocate for different human rights. I currently am an advocate for the legalization of cannabis. I'm an advocate for people in Prison for cannabis and now that my son you know, it's a famous YouTuber, I'm also a manager.

So it's going back and forth between accomplishing, my dreams of being famous and an actress and I was seeing my son doing that being famous and big influencer in Mexico and YouTuber. Now with many opportunities on TV on the big screen even he's done voice-overs for Pixar movies and stuff. So, it's just so incredible to see my Dreams being accomplished Now, by my son and be side to side with him being his manager momager. That's how I call it momager momager. My God. I love it.

Yes. So I think I have a lot of roles and I love all of them. Right? A woman wearing many sombreros. There you go. Yeah. That's a good idea what's coming for you. I think I'm hearing all of those different things and it's honoring those and you seem to wear them really well and I want to know what you were like as a kid, was it this? What was your childhood like to get to this cool calm and collected place because you were going back and forth also between the u.s. and Mexico and

correct. I'm just curious how all these things connect it comes from how I was raised and they Variances that I lived and I come from parents that got divorced and I was only 45 years old when they got divorced. So my dad living in Chihuahua Mexico. My dad moved to Colorado right when they got divorced. So I stayed with my mom and my brother in Mexico, but of course, I visited my dad every vacation, Christmas spring break summer. So yeah, it was always going

back and forth. My whole life, I grew up in Into homes that were full of love and entertainment. Of course, on my mom's side she was the strict one because she was there every day, making sure we were eating, okay? We were taking her veggies and we were getting good grades and also grounding us all the time, my dad was always supporting my dreams. Always saying, hey I see as a kid that you love to act. This is your passion like go.

For it. And then, on the other hand, my mom's like, well I don't know about that. You might struggle with those careers, not make enough money, blah, blah, blah. But at the end of the day, the main thing is that I never locked. Love, love was always around in my family, and I think that's key for every human being to be happy, your adult years. And so, in her home as a child loredana would write and direct Leis and recruit her cousins to act, sing and dance for her

family. That's how she first learned to pursue something. She was passionate about to just make it. In fact, I met Lauren in theater class back in high school and distinctly remember seeing someone that was truly in her element. And so, as you heard from all the hats that she wears her dreams have changed but it's clear that her drive, hasn't she took that fire and directed it towards. Advocacy for cannabis legalization. What? Got you exactly into the world

of cannabis, what was it, okay? So after my journey in filmmaking and production and then I started doing music festivals. And then after that, I moved back to Chihuahua. I started my own production company we were doing, mainly music, festivals, and brought a mere to Chihuahua to play with DJ and mere. It was, I was not making Real money, it wasn't a real business. I was just partying with

everybody else at the festival. So this was during the years where former president back, then declared the War on Drugs in Mexico. So my son was around two years old and they declare the war on drugs. And I'm here doing music festivals and working at clubs, and all of a sudden mass shootings, especially at He's and clubs and people, we're getting kidnapped and horrible, things started to happen. A lot of violins specially on border cities and I was on the border Chihuahua.

So we had to close our company and it became a ghost town like you weren't safe anywhere here. I am single one with the baby and so I moved to Colorado and when I moved there it was going to be 13 and Colorado decides to legalize the recreational market. So boom. Here, I am running away from my country because of the violence around the war on drugs. And now in a state where they are legalizing drugs marijuana, in this case and I was just so

confused. I was like, people are making a legal business out of this opening stores. And I started learning about the medical benefits of marijuana. And I was like, oh my God, it has therapeutic benefits. And I look back to Mexico and people are killing each other in terrible. So there's something wrong here. Hmm, you know, first, the United States, criminalize. This is the first ones to prohibit it. Marijuana back in the day in the 30s 40s and other legalizing

can. Abbess and we're still fighting for it. So my first feeling was, I need to learn exactly what's going on. And then, second, I start falling in love with the plant. The more I learn about it, the more, I a to Kid myself on all the benefits, everything you could do the tax, they were making from it and the possibility of helping people in prison to get out. I was just fascinated by it and I thought that I could be that person that could help Mexico

legalize that as well. So I found this company Charlotte's Web. It was always on top of the list of Google Charlotte's Web is doing this and the documentary on the little girl Charlotte on CNN with dr. Sanjay Gupta. So I was like, this is it this is the company so yeah I took me six months to get the job but I got it. So Charlotte's Web was my first job in the industry and I call it my cannabis.

T as well. So I graduated from Charlotte's Web and it was Game Time, something I heard another MVPs talk a little bit about the process of what it took you to get that first job. I was pretty inspired by it. Yeah so when I got to Colorado, everything was so confusing terms of the legalization and also moving to a different country with my son starting a new life. I was a little bit lost. Honestly, I didn't know what.

I I knew I was not going back into the entertainment business but then I didn't know what to do. So what I did was I found a yoga training to be an instructor yoga. So I was like, this is perfect, it's a three-month course, and I probably can find many answers there, but the course, was three thousand dollars and I had a hundred dollars in my bank account when I wrote Colorado's. So I was like, how am I going to do? Do this. And they had an announcement to

say. We have one scholarship, you have to submit your information and write a letter, why you need it. So I did that and of course, I got it. Because I manifested it. Oh my God. Oh my God, I'm a device that I needed it. I was like, this is mine, this is my scholarship. So I got it. I put my heart into that later. I was like please like I need this desperately. So I got the scholarship. Did the yoga teacher training for three months? It was life-changing. I learned to meditate.

I learn about the benefits of being vegan vegetarian. So I change a lot of things during those three months, and I found many answers. So I started teaching yoga, but I was not making enough money by teaching two or three, four classes, a week. So that's when I started looking into cannabis, Listening to Loreena. It was clear that this was the real start of her life.

Everything leading up to this moment, manifesting her scholarship meditation, building an entertainment company, her child, it was all the fuel that she needed to form an Unstoppable, persistence that would get her working for Charlotte's Web. I was going after that, like, Charlotte's Web is going to be at this Expo or giving this conference or whatever. I was always there. I was like, Hey guys the Mexican girl again.

I'm bilingual, I can help. I don't know anything about cannabis, but I learned fast, you have a job and they're like right now it was still a family business. It's not like a huge corporation like today, huge. But back in the day was still a family company. They were trying to grope Charlotte's Web saw demand from

families around the world. That wanted CBD for their kids with epilepsy as they continue to grow and establish a reputation as a leader in. The world of cannabis load Anna was always there ready to take any opportunity. I had to wait until they had an opening and they had me start the first sales team ever. They had to open a sales team to go out there and sell products at retail stores and stuff and I'm like, hey I barely speak English.

Like I don't know what CBT means and you're gonna put me out there to start at the first sales team. But I was like, this is my opportunity, I don't care. I'll tell whatever you want me to, I'm going for it, and that's how I started. So, while she was busy, manifesting a career in the Cannabis industry, stopping at nothing to get their, it's important to remember that. She was also juggling being a single mom having had Alan when

she was 20 and still in college. And at the time, she was living with her parents and Allen's dad until he left. When Alan was only 7 months old. And Lorraine has shared a bit about how all that happened. What happened to her partner? And some of the unexpected challenges that came with being a single mom. During that time Allen's dad he's like this is too much for me. I'm going to continue to do my thing and he just left. So it was very tough. I had postpartum depression for

like a year and a half. There was a point so I could finish college that my mom took my son to Chihuahua for like a year. That was super hard for me too. Apart from my baby, but I was close enough to go twice a month to go. See him with the support of her family. Things seem to be, getting better for Lorena. She moved to Colorado got her dream job at Charlotte's Web and was finally able to get her own

apartment with her son. However, a few years later, when Alan was six years old Lieutenant faced an unexpected challenge, he was saw 67 years old when he started asking for his dad. Where is he? Like, I'm I haven't seen him in a very long time. Where is he? I want to know why? He's not here. If he doesn't love me or what happened, start asking all these questions.

So I got super nervous and sad at the same time and I started remember a lot of things and I was like, well, he's right, has a right to know where his dad is. I don't even know, I didn't know back then. So I started doing my research, I call my lawyer and I was like can you help me find him? I don't have. Phone. I didn't have contact with his family, he calls me 30 minutes later. He's like, well he's in prison. That was like, oh my God.

I didn't know how I was going to tell my son to be a few months before I told him what was going on because he was so young. So before I told him, I was giving them different scenarios and maybe he's in a hospital mom, and he is probably super Were sick and he doesn't have a phone number and he doesn't know how to contact us in. He's probably there in a hospital and I will cry. Every time I we will have this conversations and then next time, we'll maybe he's dead Mom.

That's why you don't know anything about him. He probably died. So we need to find his grave if that's the case. And it was so heartbreaking. When I mentioned, well, what He's in prison and he just looked at me and he was shocked. He's like, no way. That's not going to be the case because my dad is not a bad person, he cannot be in prison. So can you imagine all these

scenarios? He was like super mature about it. Like could be this or that when we mentioned prison he started crying when I finally told him explain you there's a lot of Injustice. Has there's a lot of people in prison for things that they didn't do. Your dad is not about person. He was just very young when he left confused and they told him about his that childhood and he was said, he didn't know his dad, he was only raised by his grandparents.

His parents were not there, his mom or his dad and how he, as a human being. How could all of those things affected him in a way that are not reflecting? In the press and bite him being in prison and the decisions that he made and I told me he's not, he's not a bad person. He's actually a good person. He's a very funny guy. You're is your dad, just you gotta love him. I am now that we found him. What he wanted to do. You want me to take you to see him?

She's like no Mom. Like let's write a letter and let's see if he responds and we did and since then he called Alan every weekend. So They they've had a relationship over the phone so yeah, we have been through a lot and I just try to make sure that my son, it's okay, emotionally

around the situation. I took him to therapy because I saw also things manifesting in him like ticks like different ticks that he will do coffee for no reason or moving his head and you ask kids, they don't know how to express verbally so they showed in different ways and it was Physically how anxious he was or stress, all these things moving to a different country and your language, learn about his dad in prison. And so yeah, it was also a challenging time.

I'm not going to say it was a bad time because it also helped them be. The person he is today which I'm super proud of. He is super mature emotionally mentally like you talk to me, you feel like you're talking to a 60 year-old. He always had all this attention and love, you know? And I definitely believe 100% that a kid has love all, you know, his childhood. He's going to be fine, no matter what else happens around? Well, that's because your videos I make another YouTube.

He is the Supreme are we okay? He's been, we must, you know, that was Alan's kickoff video from two years ago. Go where he introduces himself and his channel to the world today, that video has over 2 million views. You can see that just, like young lonina. Allen has also pursued his passion in front of the camera. And one thing is very clear that he like his mom is definitely in

his element as a performer. The last president, has you look back on this and just taking a note about this transition from Bay home to cannabis that you guys seem very much in your natural authentic selves. Like that is where you guys shine. There's opportunities to express yourselves to talk about yourselves and I'd love to hear more about how this transition happened to him having this

YouTube channel. It's funny because when he turns 7 years old, that's when I Lot of things started to happen. It was the boom of YouTube, like kids start to watching YouTube more than Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network.

And he's like I want to open my YouTube channel because I would really like to be on a camera and I'm like well you got it from your mom so yes, yeah, he had like little dolls like superheroes and stuff and he will also do scripts and have his little toys pretend to do. Like a little scene, and he will record with his iPad and he had his YouTube channel, but then he realized after a few months, you know, nobody's following mom getting any attention. I have no subscribers, and he

was so disappointed. He's like, this is not easy, but I want this so bad and I'm like, well, just continue to work and just keep dreaming, keep manifesting and he's like, I think what I need is, To meet a famous YouTuber, he's going to help me and I'm gonna become one, and I was like, okay, let's see what happens. He said that when he was seven and then whatever it was just a dream of him.

And then after Charlotte's Web, I moved to another company to learn about the recreational industry. And then we had a case of a little girl from Mexico from Monterey, who Has epilepsy and her family, learn about Charlotte's Web, and they decided to go to Colorado, to look for the product. And this family came to the office when I was there, and they're like, oh well, this is the arena, the only Mexican The Works in the company.

So I was introduced to this family and they're like, we need to take this product to Mexico legally and we're like how we're going to do that. Mexico is illegal. We're going to fight it in court, so I was there next to them supporting through the whole process of Of Court. They finally won in court and got the permit to take the product in Mexico. So that was big news.

Now little Grace in Mexico was also all over the news and all the reporters wanted to learn about the story in Colorado. So they started showing up in Colorado. Was that all over the news talking about Charlotte's Web and see what I do. When I get an invitation to speak at the Congress in Mexico, along with Grace's parents. Ends. And here we are agreeing this group of Advocates to legalize medical cannabis in.

Mexico. I became an external advisory in the Congress to have legislators educate them around medical cannabis, and with my background in Charlotte's Web, I was a trusted source. And when finally legalization happened, there was like, I need to move back to Mexico. That's why I learned all these things now. I mean, the Congress I'm around. Legislators and politicians and I have a voice so I need to use it.

So we move to Mexico City. I was not the only one being successful in accomplishing goals and manifesting, then my son. All of a sudden comes to the apartment. And he's like, guess what? What I met a famous YouTuber. Oh my God is same building. You could show me and back then three years ago, this YouTuber had 45 million subscribers and I was like oh, that's cool. Yeah, he's famous. He's like I'm just gonna stalk

him. I'm just gonna follow him everywhere until I do a video with him right now. My good luck with that. So it was a group of kids. What's my son and another five little boys that were running around the building. Following this guy from you do, Hawaii. And the next thing, you know, he's like Mom, Mom Mom. I'm on his channel. What do you mean? And I'm going to this guy's Channel. His name is feather. Why? And I see a video called, I hate my neighbors. Oh my God.

That was my watch. This video and you have this six little kids running behind him and finally on, we finally beat you a kiss. All right, come to my apartment and I'll show you what I do and the kids like jumping everywhere and destroying his apartment and like super excited, taking videos and pictures and it was like a reality show and I was just like laughing. I just couldn't believe it. I was like well there you go. No, you made it. And he's like this is just the beginning of the.

I didn't hear anything after that video until like a month after he comes running in the apartment mom. Mom, you need to come because I need you to support me because I'm having a hard time recording my song. What's up next song? We're doing a music video with feather. What are you talking about? And I go downstairs and friends, like all the kids didn't tell you were recording a song and we're gonna do a music video for my Channel. All right?

Next to me, there's a music video that right now has over 60 million views. The Music video and from there I was like, okay, this is real. Yeah, there's something going. Something or not here. Oh my God. Yeah, so he put a nickname to each of the kids and he named them. The best Yvonne that, we means the neighbor band they were banned. God, I love is you and that, and since then, pandemic came, they went viral and each kid open their own Channel.

All of them have almost 2 million subscribers Subscribers and feathered Mastermind. He's a Creator. He went from four million followers three years ago to almost 17 today. Thanks to the content with the kids. Yeah, it's been a journey. Yeah. Since then Alan who goes by L Yankee has accumulated over 1.75 million subscribers on his

YouTube channel. Gained hundreds of thousands of followers on every other social Channel and has become a true internet celebrity most recently voicing a character Dr. On the animated film boss baby to alongside the likes of Alec Baldwin Eva Longoria, Jimmy Kimmel and Lisa Kudrow just to

name a few. We were lucky enough to have Alan around at the time of our interview solo, Dana called him in to join us and share a bit about his life and thoughts about his mother and manifestation, so Alan Yankee. Hi, we go with Yankee today. Yes, are you doing? I've been vegan yanking Alan. Where did the two identities? Splits you were Allen and you still are Alan, but Yankee is a recent. Yeah.

Newer name talk about that. So when I go select events or like when I'm filming, or I go outside and someone asks to take a picture with me. Well, that's when Yankee comes out because that's the celebrity part in Allen is when I am with like family or friends or just doing typical normal stuff. That's cool. Yeah. And what was that other YouTube? A feather? Yeah, yeah. There. Any? He said they give on the, he said Yankee, where did the word term Yankee come from.

So he's from Uruguay and over there people who speak English are normally called Yankees. So he said, okay, well, this guy speaks English. So we're gonna name him Yankee

and it just stayed naturally. Yeah, Alan, we've been talking to your mom for a bit and hearing about her journey and just going back and forth between Mexico and Colorado and then we met in Las Cruces and and just kind of hearing this Spirit of going after your visions and then sensing something and then bringing it to life. And then this beautiful moment that you had when you wanted to start a YouTube channel and then you did. Yeah. Talking about your toys.

Yes, it was very Quinn's worthy but you gotta start somewhere. Yeah. I mean when I was little I always told my mom. I want to be in the Nickelodeon awards. Aha. And and now we won the last one they did. It was not too long ago so yeah the kids chose the words from a Nickelodeon and they they just one my God. Yeah it's pretty fun. Having those experiences something that probably happens once in a lifetime right in even through like a 14 year old boy which has like nothing to do

with YouTube and stuff. Cough. And then just like that, I'm no here and like so how do you make sense of that? I mean what does that mean to you? I guess it can mean that no matter how old you are or not even just like being old just like any anything that's holding you back, instead of using it as Wait, use it as a step to keep going on. Talia, since he was little. I was mentioning because this power of manifestation, he manifest things very fast.

We all humans have that power whenever we topped into it and learn how to do it and believe that we can do, it starts happening, but as kids, we have it naturally, we start losing that sense. That knowing of manifestation and the power. Have to accomplish things. Allen is one of those people person that just continues to do. So in a very, very fast way. Sure, what do you, how do you feel about that? I mean, it sounds very hippie. But yeah. Yeah. My mom baby.

Yeah, I mean it sounds creepy but isn't it true how you manifest things? It's true. It's true. What were things like before your TV show and being on all over social was the same across the board. It was more normal because that definitely changes your whole life. Now, I can go out without even being asked to take a photo and before it was just School in friends and family. And now it's Friends School family and work because Yeah, I

can be fun and everything. I really enjoyed doing it with my friends and myself, because it's something that I really enjoy from Steven, since when I was little, I always saw these YouTubers make videos and I would say, okay, that's cool. I want to do that too. But it's also like a really big responsibility because you have to be on it a lot and then because then if you don't then you're just going to lose focus and people are going to stop being interested in you and it

just goes down. How are you choosing? What happens, what is going on the show? And as that happened on videos, I normally just come up with ideas or my mom gives me ideas. She doesn't have the best song. Sometimes I do or sometimes with my editor he helps me out too and we just brainstorm and then we think of a good idea and then you just film it as we go. I'm curious about like as you were just kind of like experimenting through things.

Have you noticed that mindset apply in other areas of your life? Yeah, like right since I have a lot going on in my head I have school, I have work. I have family, friends. I'm trying new things to keep me a bit more occupied from those things. Like not have more just have like a set of times where I'm just doing something I enjoy and I don't think about anything

else. For example, football, I never really liked football when I was little, and then most of my friends here in Mexico. They love football. So it's kind of difficult for you. Not to do what they like when everyone's graying on what to do. So I had to adapt a little to playing them. I started enjoying it more and more and now I got at least more decent. Now I've learned piano and guitar. Our and drums and stuff. And I won't travel more, but to

not places. I don't want to go where my mom forces me. I want to travel to places where I like, right? Well, yeah. Next time you want to catch a Yankees game? I'm here in New York. Okay, I've always wanted to go to New York, Let's do it. You okay. See you Amir ganor. Some kisaki Casita, thank you too. Thanks so much for joining us out. Thank you for having me. I really enjoyed is. Yeah, we'll check in with you in a couple of years. We'll get you back on the podcast. All right.

He's a cool kid. He's awesome. Yeah you are right about wisdom Beyond his years, right? And he talks like an adult so this is so freaking cold. None of this is surprising to let enough all the things, the way you carry yourself, the things that you nurture for yourself the way that you do, your best to fortify your relationship with the world and stay centered. And now you create that space for your beautiful son here and seeing the fruits of that labor and what's happening.

So so wonderful like got to recognize that Lodi. Congratulations, thank you so much. It's been quite a journey. I've learned the importance of living now because we don't know that And it's going to be tonight or tomorrow. So let's just do the right thing and, and leave here now. And that's what I try to teach them as well. Just enjoying the moment and YouTube is temporary to. I was like, just leave your

moment. You want that a word carry their word with all the excitement that you were waiting for you finally have it but you never stopped getting surprise for all these things in life well Lori as As we wrap up here, bring us home with, with what your vision is. What do you seeing now? When you give your mind's eye permission, what do you see in the future for you in the future? For me, in terms of my mission
