Episode Details

Buenos días, bonadillas! ☕🥐 Welcome back to Cafecito y Croquetas, brought to you by Stay Tranquilo and H&CO.

Today we’re joined by Anabella Murillo—a Venezuela-born financial industry professional who shares an incredible story of resilience, reinvention, and building a life in the U.S. Anabella walks us through what Venezuela was like in the mid-2000s, how her family’s immigration journey unfolded, and what it really took to start over in Miami with “two suitcases and a dream.”

From there, we get into the world she’s built over the last 18 years—working in the trust & estate / private wealth space and supporting ultra high net worth families with legacy planning, structure, and long-term strategy. This one is full of gems for anyone trying to level up financially and think ahead.

In this episode we cover:

Growing up in Venezuela + the realities of the early 2000s

The immigration process + starting over in Miami

Why she chose work over another degree during the 2008 financial crisis

New York vs Miami vs San Francisco: what she learned in each city

What “trusts” actually are (and why they matter for legacy + protection)

The connection between money decisions and legal consequences

Advice for the younger generation: being proactive, learning money early, and building the right circles

Why Miami is still just getting started—and why it’s the “Magic City”
