In this heartfelt and powerful episode of Taste of Grace, Dorka and Blanca travel to their beloved Puerto Rico for a conversation that’s as rich in purpose as it is in flavor, joined by their soul sister and guest, Merari Peña Vidal.
A visionary Latina CEO, Merari shares her inspiring journey of forgiveness, entrepreneurship, and finding purpose beyond the church walls. From launching her jewelry brand out of a garage to creating community through Oasis Empresarial, Merari’s story is a testimony of grit, God’s grace, and the power of saying yes even when you’re unsure.
This episode explores what it means to be a missionary in the marketplace, how to lead with both strategy and spirit, and why purpose, not perfection, is the true currency of success. It’s an honest and joy-filled look at Latina identity, unlearning hustle culture, and remembering your “why” when the road gets tough. Oh—and yes, there are alcapurrias involved.
If you’ve ever questioned your calling, felt like your gifts didn’t fit the mold, or needed a reminder that God can use everything, this one’s for you.
