Today we’d like to introduce you to Madeline Rivera
Hi Madeline, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
Welcome to my world! I am Madeline Rivera Rivera, passionate about marketing and management. I help you engage, transform and take action on a personal and professional level.
Since 2018, I have been the creative mind behind “Wake Up”, a series of experiences that empower, motivate and serve women and men, providing them with positive tools for their daily lives. It all begins with my success story of losing 157 lbs and how I had to strengthen my mind, body and spirit by unlearning and learning to create new healthy habits.
That is where the Wake Up! project came about. An awakening based on my processes and how I can be a guide for other people who go through similar processes. In 2022 I had the opportunity to carry out my Wake Up Hispanos project where I had the opportunity to guide a group of business owners, colleagues in the Kissimmee area with some collaborators from Florida who gave me the support to achieve the long-awaited dream of being a blessing point for my Hispanics in Florida. Then in 2024 I had the challenge of going to transform a group of women and men investors in Tampa Fl with my husband Alex Rivera, a real estate investor. This event was held with one of my clients AMZ Title, a title house where they gave me the opportunity to hold the event at their facilities and with the help of my mentor in Tampa Fl Edgar Ladino, owner of HBS360 Florida, I had the opportunity to present my Wake Up! project.
I was collaborating on a radio station in PR called Radio Paz 810am on the program “De todo un poco” with Manolo Almeida, I had the privilege of sharing inspiring advice on Tuesdays and Fridays to believe in yourself and make firm decisions.
I am a speaker for various companies, events where my goal is to encourage and train each individual to reach their best version, based on the Wake Up! CTA method that leads them to commitment, transformation and action.
I currently have a podcast “WakeUp! Podcast with Madeline Rivera”, where I address topics of personal development, growth mindset, leadership, breaking limiting beliefs, among others.
I have obtained certifications with Ismael Cala in “Breaking Paradigms: Believe, Create, Grow” and “The path to abundance”. Strategic Coaching with the Tony Robbins method.
In 2019, I obtained my certification as an Ontological Digital Coach with Marohu Marketing, endorsed by the Association of Coaches (ACL).
One of my favorite phrases is: “Simplicity leads us to Greatness”. As a person, I am defined by key words such as attitude, perseverance, discipline and constancy. It is an honor to share this journey with you and help you achieve the greatness that is within you!
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
For me, it has never been an easy path to undertake and bring a disruptive and different message so that people understand that the whole world changes when you begin to transform yourself from the inside out. In order for me to be able to bring my voice, I had to go through processes of rejection, ridicule, and crush the impostor in my head, but it was a day-to-day process. In Puerto Rico and the entire world, there are professionals who are fellow coaches, but I consider myself a different voice where I work a lot with the mind of that person who sees their potential to achieve everything they set out to do. Each Wake Up! experience must be authentic and genuine and a lot of love and passion is given because that is my commitment to myself and my community.
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
Since I was little, I have always loved to motivate and brighten the lives of every person I met on my path, to be a beacon of light for people. When I went through the process of losing my 157 lbs at my Wake Up! moment, I told myself that I was going to be 100% responsible for my life and story. And since I love to serve and see every human being grow, I am one of those who think that we all deserve to progress in the environment where we live and that in the course of my life I want to leave good footprints in the hearts of every person, to remind them that they are important, that they are worth a lot, that they have the ability to achieve everything they set out to do, no matter how difficult the process may be. I feel proud to be ME, to be able to help, leverage and be a bridge of blessing for every woman and man who manages to make small changes to achieve big results. I am currently a Health facilitator at a company that helps optimize metabolic health, Unicity, and within my weight loss experience I provide coaching services so that each person can achieve their health, professional or individual goal with my Wake Up! method.
I distinguish myself by being genuine, real, and consistent when accompanying each person in each process. Being empathetic with each situation that each person presents to me, and above all, focusing on the solution.
What does success mean to you?
For me, success is seeing each person grow in whom I put faith, hope, and tools that they already have within their BEING, being with family and creating moments with the people we love. Sitting with my delicious tea on my terrace and listening to the coquí of Puerto Rico, that is success. Having mental, physical, and emotional peace of mind, perfect health, that is success for me. Having friends and people with conversations that add up and that challenge me to be my best version every day.
