About Erika Hernandez
Erika Hernandez is the host of Purpose, Not Pity and the founder of the Build Anyway philosophy, the belief that when life fractures the blueprint, you build anyway.
After navigating personal loss, identity shifts, and professional reinvention, she began asking more precise questions about what rebuilding requires. Not motivation. Not performance. Clarity.
With over two decades in leadership and creative strategy, Erika approaches life after loss the same way she approaches business: structured, intentional, and steady.
This podcast is for adults in the middle, functioning, capable, recalibrating. It’s not about replaying pain. It’s about choosing who you become next.
