In 1999, Llamas moved to Miami, Florida to work in the music business with RLM Management, managing prominent acts like Miguel Bosé, Mecano and Alejandro Sanz among others
Her newfound interest in human behavior led her to get certified as an ontological coach in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 2004. During this period, she wanted to communicate her feelings to a broader audience, and she began writing her reflections which ultimately became her first, best-selling book in Spanish, Una Vida Sin Límites (A Life Without Limitations), published by Penguin/Random House in 2009.
In early 2014, she co-authored the book Maestría de Vida ("Masters in Life") with Hispanic media personality Gloria Calzada in which they discuss themes such as trust, fear, love, happiness, self-esteem, ego, forgiveness, and commitments. In April 2014, she published her fourth book with Penguin/Random House entitled El arte de educar: Técnicas de coaching para guiar a nuestros hijos (Spanish Edition) ("The Art of Raising Children") where she introduces the reader to coaching techniques for children.
She creates, gives and directs the certification for the MMK Process through her own coaching institute MMK Institute for empowerment of self.
