Meet Rebecca

A World-Class, Elite Coach guiding women and athletes through their growth journeys, transforming lives for the better.

As a believer in the power of change, I've witnessed the American Dream crumble and rebuild, not just in the U.S. but abroad, where I became a dual citizen in London, UK. Specializing in Women's Personal Development and Athlete's Mindset/Growth, my coaching focuses on inspiring women to live their best life and achieve success as she defines it. Strengthening the mental fortitude of athletes is as strong a focus of mine due to my training and experience. I am a living testament that no challenge is insurmountable, and my mission is to guide others on their journey to realizing their dreams.

Born in Havana, Cuba, in the midst of a communist regime, I've traversed six different countries, cultivating a unique perspective that shapes my approach to life. My family's escape from communism when I was a year old to Caracas, Venezuela thrust us into unfamiliar territory, residing in a refugee house where I learned the value of community, family, and support. Engaging in sports like swimming, gymnastics, and dance from a young age, I discovered the joy of movement and camaraderie. Excelling in swimming at a very young age, I faced challenges when promoted to an advanced team, learning the art of resilience and true competitiveness.

My journey continued in Miami, FL, where language barriers and bullying tested my tolerance and strength. Changing my name to Rebecca marked a pivotal moment, embracing my uniqueness as a superpower. Against societal expectations, I chose public schools, stayed with close friends, and resisted pressure to attend magnet schools. Throughout my life, I've embraced the power of "NO," defining my path against conventional norms.

​

As a mentor at just 10 years old, I spearheaded a successful peer-peer program, laying the foundation for my passion for coaching and mentoring. In college, I created a bilingual after-school program, addressing family dynamics in an immigrant community. Post-graduation, I became a certified Yoga Instructor, pioneering the first children's program at Prana Yoga in Miami.

Over the pandemic, my coaching journey expanded, mentoring and coaching women, children, and athletes, including roles as a CJL mentor and Mental Health Coach with FCC USA. In 2021, I became a Change Agent through BeStrong International bridging social differences amongst diverse cultures & nationalities.

​

Featured in podcasts (Athlete Legacy I Movement Matters) and a keynote speaker at local events, I've also served on judging panels, bridging sports with technology. 

Beyond coaching, I compete in triathlons and represent ZootSports and Mack Cycle as Brand Ambassador. My personal experience overcoming a biking injury and undergoing surgery underscore my commitment to self-transformation and boundless growth.
