Life & Work with Cynthia Blanco of Commerce City – Colorado

Today we’d like to introduce you to Cynthia Blanco

Hi Cynthia, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
I was divorced in 2021 and became a single mom. Prior to being a single mom I was a stay at home mom, who coached and taught yoga, but wasn’t making enough money to support myself as a single parent. I decided I wanted to make money online and so I started to look into what that would look like. In 2023 I launched a full on influencer/creator career online. Since then I have made over 2000 videos for over 500 brands all over the world.

Prior to having my daughter I was a professional dancer and yoga teacher. When I had her at age 35 I retired from dancing so that I could be with her. I still teach Yoga in the Denver Metro Area on a pop up basis.

I became a certified Integrative Holistic Life Coach in 2019, but haven’t really gone anywhere with it. I coached several clients but in that field for myself, I never wanted to need my clients money, so in order to pay my bills I focus on creating content that converts for brands.

The career I have created has given me the ability to be with my daughter, travel and gives me time flexibility, which is ideal for many of us parents. It’s actually kind of cool. I would have never known I would be doing this, but it is great to know we can.

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
NO! I mean my biggest obstacle is myself. I know its cliche, but it’s TRUE. Being that I am working on my own schedule there are days I don’t get anything done. And that reflects in my pocket book. Also the struggles of figuring out technology on a whole other level, which is constantly changing. But I have self taught myself Marketing, Social Media, Video Editing, Email Marketing, and more. That was a big leap from dance and yoga. But It is very valuable. My stress is based on the ability to create content that converts. Its definitely challenging at times.

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I am a Creative, Creator, Coach, Yoga Teacher and Marketer. I also sing as a hobby… I am proud of the fact that I have built a business that I can customize and move around based on my life and skills. What sets me apart from others is that I have 20+ years as a professional performer (mostly ballet and modern). I am naturally creative but I do tend to see things differently (yes, I use apple)….

How do you think about luck?
I have always found excellent mentors who have taught me things throughout my life. My Yoga mentor helped so much in my early twenties and really impacted my wellness journey. I dances in MYC and had several wonderful dance mentors that guided me towards excellence. I had a fabulous coaching mentor who helped me really become a better coach and person. I also have come across several super cool marketing mentors over the last couple of years that have helped me build my business. Super Lucky. I also have a bad ass mom who has always been there for me and believed in me.
