Will be here for the next few weeks. We’ve been so touched by all the love, kind words, and encouragement, thank you from the bottom of our hearts! As a family of four traveling across the U.S. in our RV, we’re on a mission to support small, family-owned restaurants by creating videos that share their story, highlight their food, and speak a prayer over their business, and we do all of this completely free of charge. If you’ve been wondering how to support what we’re doing, here are a few simple (but powerful) ways you can help: Every like, comment, follow, and share helps us reach more people and support more small businesses. If a post makes you smile or inspires you, share it! Your engagement really goes a long way. One of the biggest ways you can support is by using and sharing our 2Visit platform. It’s completely free and it helps people discover and save amazing local restaurants just like the ones we visit. The more people use it, the more visibility we bring to the small businesses we’re spotlighting. If you’ve been blessed by our journey and want to help us keep going, you can do so here. Your support helps cover fuel, food, and the tools we use to create videos that uplift hardworking families and inspire others to do the same. We’re not asking for donations, but if it’s on your heart to bless our mission, we deeply appreciate it. Every dollar helps us continue to share food, stories, and prayers across the U.S. Many people don’t know this, but beyond our videos, I also run a full-service digital marketing agency focused on helping restaurants grow, that’s actually how I support my family while we’re on the road. If you’re a restaurant owner yourself, or you know someone who could use help with social media, websites, Google, Online 0rdering or POS Services, I’d love to connect! Your referrals and support mean the world to us, and they allow us to keep pouring into this mission full-time. **Foodies Forward** is more than a name — it’s our mission. We’re a **nonprofit organization** dedicated to uplifting and encouraging small, family-owned restaurants across the United States. Through our videos, guides, and bilingual educational content, we help business owners gain clarity, confidence, and hope.

Every chapter of my journey has shaped who I am today. From washing dishes on my parents’ front porch in Mexico to empowering small businesses and helping vulnerable communities in the U.S., this is the path that has defined me. My journey as a business owner didn’t start with success; it began with struggle. At just six years old, I was already helping my parents run their small food business in Mexico. They sold meals from our front porch, and my job was to clean dishes for the next round of customers. By the time I was eight, we opened a small shop called **La Pasadita**, selling flans, jellos, and fresh-squeezed juices. It was my first taste of what running a business felt like, but it wasn’t without challenges. Despite some success, my parents struggled to manage the finances, and I quickly learned that running a business took more than just hard work—it required discipline and structure. When my father left for the U.S., everything changed. At the age of 10, I took on even more responsibility, including running the family business on my own when my parents were too discouraged to open the shop. It was a lot for a child, but it gave me the resilience and determination that would guide me for years to come. When I was 11 years old, we joined my father in the United States. Life here was different. I started collecting cans and stripping copper wire for extra money. By 14, I was working under a fake ID as a busboy, dishwasher, and eventually a cook. These experiences taught me valuable skills and built my work ethic. One pivotal moment came when I convinced my mom to make her signature flans and jellos again. I went door-to-door selling them in apartment complexes and became known as **“El Güero de las Gelatinas.”** Soon, I expanded, stocking local supermarkets with our desserts on consignment. At just 15, I was managing distribution to seven stores in Dallas. At 17, my life took a drastic turn. After intervening during a domestic violence incident at home, my father was deported, and I felt the weight of guilt and responsibility. I worked two jobs—at Jamba Juice during the day and cleaning at night—to support my family, often going days without sleep. Despite the challenges, I discovered a passion for marketing through network marketing. Although I briefly attended college on a scholarship, I had to drop out because of financial difficulties. But I didn’t let that stop me. I taught myself everything I could about business and marketing, laying the foundation for my future endeavors. In my early 20s, I got married and started a family. I joined my father in the construction industry and eventually launched **Garcia’s Drywall Repair.** Although the business grew, tensions between my father and me led to its closure. Years later, my parents and I opened **Doña Jacky,** a snack shop in Waxahachie. The business thrived, earning over $350,000 in its first year, but family tensions resurfaced. I stepped away briefly, only to return with a new concept: **El Quechido,** a restaurant under the same roof as Doña Jacky. Together, we brought the business back to life, integrating community-focused initiatives like the Pay It Forward program, which provided meals and encouragement to those in need. **Foodies Forward** is more than a name — it’s our mission. We’re a **nonprofit organization** dedicated to uplifting and encouraging small, family-owned restaurants across the United States. Through our videos, guides, and bilingual educational content, we help business owners gain clarity, confidence, and hope. Everything we create — from books to social media lessons — is **completely free** for restaurant owners and entrepreneurs. As we continue to grow and our content becomes monetized, we use those resources — along with donations and support from **Foodies Forward Agency** — to **pour back into small businesses**. Sometimes that means showing up, buying out a restaurant for the day, or simply surprising a local family with a full house of support. When you work with **Foodies Forward Agency**, you’re not just investing in marketing — you’re joining a movement. Ten percent of all agency income goes directly to support our nonprofit mission of spreading hope, love, and opportunity to small business owners everywhere. At **Julio The Foodio**, my mission is simple: to uplift and empower small businesses while staying rooted in faith. One of the ways I do this is by praying for the businesses I visit, asking for blessings, growth, and success in their journey. If you’re a business owner and would like us to pray for your business, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’d be honored to include you in our prayers and support your journey however we can. Join me and my family in a heartfelt prayer for the small businesses we support. Together, we believe in the power of faith to inspire and create lasting impact.

My father, the youngest of fourteen children, grew up surrounded by violence and addiction, leading him down a similar path of alcohol and drug abuse. My mother, who lost her father at the age of fourteen and had to care for her younger siblings, turned to alcohol as well. Both sides of my family viewed financial help as loans rather than gifts, creating a cycle of debt and obligation that I became determined to break. At six years old, I was already working in our family business. I saw things no child should see—my father’s violent outbursts when he didn’t have alcohol or drugs, and my mother’s attempts to keep peace by enabling him. She even sent me to buy his drugs, terrified of what he might do if he came home empty-handed. One pattern that stood out was how everything in my family was transactional. My parents never received genuine help from their own parents, and they passed that mindset on to me. When I got married, I still owed my mother money for a car she “bought” me as a teenager. It wasn’t a gift—it was a debt I had to repay. Things only got worse when my parents sold the family business, taking all the profits and leaving me with nothing. It felt like abandonment, a pattern they had also experienced in their own lives. But I believe we have the power to break these generational curses. For me, it’s not just about finances or addiction—it’s about breaking the cycle of domestic violence and striving to be the best husband and father I can be. I know the example I set for my children will shape how they view relationships when they grow up. If I want my sons to become loving husbands and fathers, they have to see that example in me. That’s why I strive every day to make my wife feel special, loved, and valued. I want her to know she is my priority, and I want my kids to grow up in a home where love and affection are normal, not rare or conditional. Another cycle I am breaking is the idea that everything has to be a financial transaction. In many families, especially in the Hispanic community, parents grow old thinking their children owe them everything—repayment for raising them or providing for them. But I don’t believe that’s how it should be. I want my children to know that whatever I do for them comes from the heart, without any expectation of being repaid. If I have the ability to give them something, I want it to be freely given, as a gesture of love and support—not as a transaction or with strings attached. Being a parent means giving unconditionally, not keeping a tally. I want my kids to feel supported, loved, and empowered to succeed without the weight of guilt or obligation hanging over them. This journey has been hard, but it’s taught me that recognizing the patterns in our lives is the first step toward breaking them. We don’t have to repeat the cycles of pain, obligation, or conditional love. We can choose to act differently, to create a better future for ourselves and the generations to come. If you’re reading this and feel stuck in a similar situation, know that you have the power to rewrite your story. It’s not easy, but it’s worth it. #BreakingGenerationalCurses #FamilyLove #ParentingGoals #HispanicHeritage #BreakingTheCycle #PositiveParenting #JulioTheFoodio See less Copyright © 2025 All rights reserved by Julio The Foodio - Powered by [**Foodies Forward Agency**](https://agency.foodiesforward.org) - [Home](/en/ "Home") - [About Me](/en/about-me "About Me") - [Contact Me](/en/contact-me "Contact Me") - [Home](/en/ "Home") - [About Me](/en/about-me "About Me") - [Contact Me](/en/contact-me "Contact Me") - [Home](/en/ "Home") - [About Me](/en/about-me "About Me") - [Contact Me](/en/contact-me "Contact Me") - [Home](/en/ "Home") - [About Me](/en/about-me "About Me") - [Contact Me](/en/contact-me "Contact Me") --- ## URL: https://www.juliothefoodio.com/be-careful-who-you-let-into-your-life ### Title: Be Careful Who You Let Into Your Life ### Page ID: 6776698 ### Content: ### ![?️](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/td9/2/16/1f6e1.png)Be Careful Who You Let Into Your Life![?](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t1f/2/16/1f64f.png)![?](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t16/2/16/1f3e1.png) I’ve been thinking a lot about how important it is to be careful about the people we allow into our lives, especially when it comes to our kids. As parents, we do everything we can to protect them, but sometimes we forget how much the people around us can influence them, even in ways we don’t see right away. You might be doing everything “right”taking your family to church, teaching them good values, setting a great example, but then you wonder, “Where did things go wrong?” Sometimes it’s not what you’re doing, but who you’re letting into your circle. And let’s be honest, sometimes it’s not just friends or acquaintances. Sometimes it’s family. It could be your parents, siblings, or an uncle, someone really close that you don’t think twice about because, well, “they’re family.” But even family can bring negativity into your life, whether it’s gossip, bad habits, or values that don’t align with yours. Just because someone is blood doesn’t mean they’re automatically a positive influence. It’s easy to say, “I’m not judging anyone. I respect their choices.” That’s fine, but what happens when those choices or behaviors start influencing your kids? Whether it’s someone who loves to gossip, stirs up drama, or lives in a way that doesn’t align with your values, their influence can rub off on your family, without you even noticing. Some people justify it by saying, “I’m just doing business with them,” or, “It’s not like I’m supporting their choices.” But let’s be real, how far are you willing to go just to make a little money? Is it worth risking your values or your family’s future? We have to ask ourselves these hard questions. Something my pastor said really stuck with me. People often admire his family because all of his kids are involved in ministry, and they’ll ask him how he and his wife did it. His answer? “It wasn’t because of us. It was because of the community we surrounded our family with.” That hit me. It’s not just about being a good parent, it’s about choosing the right people to be in your life and your kids’ lives. The people you surround yourself with will have an impact, whether you like it or not. So here’s the question: Who’s in your circle? Are they lifting your family up, or are they quietly pulling you down? It’s something to think about, because the people we let in will shape our family’s future.
