New podcast drop 🎧

I met Illianna Acosta when we recorded the podcast episode I’ve been posting about. Before that, I’d been low key lurking and following her content, reading her newsletter Lost in Translation.

I also listened to her episode on the Hella Latin@ podcast with Odalys Jasmine Garcia Arce (one of my favorites!) and knew I had to have a conversation with her.

When I was about to hit record for the episode we recorded, I quickly checked in with Illianna and asked: “Are you ready?” and she responded: “Are YOU ready?”

That’s when I knew we were about to have an epic conversation. And we did.

Illianna’s story, her energy, and her realness resonate with me. I connected with her on what it means to go through the cultural shift of entering the corporate world as a first gen Latina, how to be strategic, how to be a leader and mentor others, how to own your voice and your seat at the table, and so much more.
