Into The Wild 41. Why You Must Always Look For The Silver Lining – with Diani Blanco
Hey you wild women!
Diani Blanco is a renowned inspirational speaker, an advocate against dating abuse as well as the CEO and founder of Infyno (infeeno) Group, a non-profit organization dedicated to help teenage girls in high schools across Canada suffering from domestic and sexual abuse in young dating relationships.
In the early stages of the pandemic lockdown, Diani started to hear more and more from single parents who found themselves in situations where no organization could provide timely help. Grocery stores allowed only one adult to come to the shop, little kids couldn't be left unattended, deliveries took long times because of the sudden demand, and they ran out of milk, diapers, or other basic needs, and this was a constant struggle.
Diani decided it was time to make sure no family was left behind. "It takes a tribe," she says. Partnering with her good friend, they turned the sporadic help given on a personal basis to a growing community called Queens of Heart.
Diani has helped numerous families, personally running from house to house to deliver food boxes and other basic items, donated by the members of the group, as well as local organizations that discovered the new initiative and decided to pitch in.
In this episode, you will learn about:
- Everything happens for a reason.
- Why being yourself is the best advice.
- She was graced with feelings of cold & hot right before she wanted to jump off a bridge. It was a sign to keep holding on.
- She didn't know what love was supposed to be.
- How she worked her hardest to give her kids the bunkbed they always wanted. And she got it despite all odds.
- You need a no excuse mindset.
- She knew she needed to give back. Queens of Heart is like her third baby; keeps her up at night, but provides so much joy!
What it means to be a wild woman:
- "Not having any limits. You can achieve and accomplish anything you want to. To not feel judged and to be honest with everyone around you."
