Our life experience fuels our work: An interview with Verenice Leon Hurtado
Wednesday, 8 April, 2026
What does a mortgage loan officer have to do with happy work? Everything, when the person doing it is a born educator and provider who refused to let her work stay surface-level.In this episode, Olivier sits down with Verenice León Hurtado, a mortgage professional who stopped chasing numbers and started chasing meaning, and discovered that the two aren't mutually exclusive. They're just in the wrong order for most people.Verenice's story is one many of us will recognize: you take a job, you chase the next goal, you hit the metrics. And then one day, the fuel runs out. What she did next is what makes her a perfect example of what happy work actually looks like in practice.In this conversation, you'll hear:How Verenice identified her two core inner personas — educator and provider — and why that clarity changed how she worksWhy going narrower in her business actually created deeper relationships and better resultsHow her own financial hardship as the oldest daughter of an immigrant family became the very thing that makes her irreplaceable to the people she servesThe shift from transactional to transformative work, and what that actually looks like day to day🎙️ Connect with Verenice on LinkedIn at Verenice León Hurtado or on Instagram at @CafecitoHomeLoansText us!
