"Uno va cumpliendo ciclos y abriendo otros" — Mabel Moreno | La Tobón Show

In this episode of La Tobón Show, Laura Tobón welcomes Mabel Moreno, one of Colombia's most iconic and beloved actresses. With over 20 years of experience in television, film, and theater, Mabel has brought to life unforgettable villains like Lucrecia, Gemma, and Úrsula—but this conversation reveals a woman far more complex than her characters. Mabel opens up like never before: she talks about the depression she went through 15 years ago and how she understood that they were "delayed decisions," about the marriage that wasn't making her happy and the moment she decided to let go. She also shares why she considers herself a millionaire today because of the time she has—not because of money—how the pandemic changed her life, and why, after two decades of acting, she now prefers being a businesswoman and producer. Amid laughter and games—from "Green Flag or Red Flag" with the flags of the acting world to "The Unexpected Call," where Mabel improvises impossible auditions live—this is a conversation about success, mental health, reinvention, and living with purpose. Mabel also tells us all about Susana and Elvira, her new project as a producer, which hits theaters on May 28. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⏱️ CHAPTERS 0:00 Intro 0:21 Welcome: Who is Mabel Moreno? 1:14 Green Flag or Red Flag: The Flags of the Acting World 5:55 "Where they stick their tongue out, I bite": The Set and Its Limits 8:57 Lucrecia, Gemma, and Úrsula: The Art of Playing Villains 11:22 How to Prepare for a Character 13:34 Mabel the Producer: Behind the Scenes of Susana and Elvira 16:05 Why an Artist Must Also Be an Entrepreneur 17:04 Brands, Content, and "I Like Them Best" company" 20:15 The mental health podcast: speaking without fear 21:46 Her depression: "they were postponed decisions" 24:42 The pandemic that changed her perspective 26:12 "The definition of a millionaire is time" 27:05 Choosing the roles that make her happy 29:56 The unexpected call: Mabel improvises live 32:17 Susana and Elvira: premiere May 28 34:00 Farewell and closing ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📌 Episode topics: Depression and "postponed decisions" Leaving a marriage that didn't make her happy Therapy as a tool Life Redefining Success: Time as True Wealth Working Less to Live More From Actress to Entrepreneur and Producer The Art of Playing Villains on Screen Susana and Elvira: Their New Project in Theaters ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔔 Subscribe so you don't miss any episodes of La Tobón Show. 💬 Have you also postponed a decision you know you have to make?
