Stop Comparing, Start Creating: Teresa Marie on Building AERIS & Motherhood
Latina makeup artist and mom of three Teresa Marie (Teresa Guzmán) joins Paulina to talk about turning a creative outlet into AERIS, a booked-and-busy glam squad built on word-of-mouth, values, and vision.
Teresa shares growing up in Little Village, why she “rubbed two sticks together” to get her first kit, the mindset shift from “extra nail money” to creating jobs for other moms, and how she leads in her femininity without getting lost in the industry’s competition trap.
We unpack the power of “start cringe,” setting delusionally attainable goals, delegating (admin + content) so you can do your best work, and making 20–30% of your time count when family is your why.

I’m grateful to have you here. Being a mom and going after your dreams isn’t easy, but you’re doing better than you think. Keep going — you’ve got this.
