<p>The Chingona Living Show's first episode of 2026 features Pastor Janette Navarrete, with whom we talked about:</p><p></p><ul><li>How community and sisterhood play a crucial role in supporting individuals in their spiritual and personal growth.</li><li>The journey of faith and spirituality being deeply personal and how it can be experienced outside the confines of a physical church building.</li><li>Spirituality vs. Religion</li><li>¡Y mucho, mucho más!</li></ul><p></p><p>Before you dive in, here's a little something about our very special guest:</p><p><br>Pastor Janette was born and raised in Los Angeles, CA. She spent the first part of her career as a Stage Manager in the theater industry before transitioning and launching her business, JJ the Wedding Planner, which has since closed indefinitely in 2024 to focus on her Seminary program.&nbsp;</p><p><br>She seeks to create a safe space for people of all ages and backgrounds to learn from scripture and live a life in the way of Jesus. Being a first-gen daughter of Mexican immigrant parents has given her the spiritual understanding of how to welcome and care for the marginalized.</p><p></p><p>She is blessed with a wildly full home which includes her Husband, Mom, Father-in-law, three pups, and five chickens, and still managed to make time for this special interview, and I trust you will find great wisdom in today's conversation.</p><p></p><p>Listen in, and follow her journey on Instagram at @janette.j.navarrete (<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/janette.j.navarrete/">https://www.instagram.com/janette.j.navarrete/</a>)</p><p><br>And when you're ready to tap into deeper work, check out my website at <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://www.chingonaliving.com">www.chingonaliving.com</a>, where transformation awaits!</p><p></p>
