In the process of finding a name I searched long and hard before returning back to my own name. IR is the story of not just my heritage as a Mexican immigrant and my family, but the journey of how we got here. For years my identity was something that I struggled to grasp having been born in Mexico but spent most of my life stateside. Nowadays, it is a point of pride; I am fortunate enough to have access to both communities, allowing me to help a larger number of people. The flowers and language of growth throughout this page is something I hope to carry over into therapy. Plants are can grow despite unexpected challenges so long as they take the time and effort to protect them and help them flourish. And now that you are here, the I hope that to you IR stands for “I’m ready”. To flourish. To rediscover yourself. To process what has happened. To not let your past define you but instead to take control of your path forward.
En el proceso de en nombre para el negocio, considere muchas cosas, antes de tener la realización que mi nombre quedaría perfecto. Mas que eso, seria una representacion de mi vida y mi historia. Cuando antes era un punto de contradicción y a veces confusión, ahora el ser inmigrante Mexicano es algo que cargo con orgullo. El ser Mexicano me a dado una cultura profunda, la habilidad de conectar con más poblaciones, y sobre todo, la oportunidad de ayudar a más personas. Y ya que estas aqui, espero que I.R. para ti signifiqué “ Intentaré Remendarme”. Con humildad. Con cariño. Con consideración por versiones pasadas de ti. Con la habilidad de procesar lo que pasó. Con la herramienta que te ayudará a plantar nuevas raíces para crecer y florecer.
