SHARE ME

Meet four remarkable Latina entrepreneurs, each exploring distinct realms of entrepreneurship. From navigating personal trauma to harnessing the power of manifestation these trailblazing women defy conventional boundaries.

In honor of  National Entrepreneur Day, we are highlighting four Latina entrepreneurs who built their businesses from the ground up on their own terms. Check out their businesses and listen to these inspiring conversations dripping in exclusive tips and wisdom.

Navigating Trauma as An Entrepreneur w/ Brujas of Brooklyn

These Dominican hermanas are Ph.D. Yogis, Brujas, and Professoras are dedicated to helping BIPOC cycle-breakers heal trauma through yogic science practices. We dove into a conversation with Griselda and explored what building a business looks like while navigating the process of healing trauma. While children of immigrants are envisioning a new way to work that does not include working ourselves to the bones as our parents, it’s a new frontier.

A consistent theme Griselda emphasized was the importance of presence. Learning to be present with your body about when it’s time to rest or recognizing if our trauma is sabotaging our business – awareness is key. Amiga, don’t let your traumas get in the way of building your dream business. Listen to the full conversation to hear Griselda’s wisdom based on her first-hand experience.

How to Leverage Manifestation to Grow Your Business w/ Julissa Calderón

Julissa Calederón is the founder of the Dream and Manifest Journal – a tool that you definitely want to include in your entrepreneurial toolbox. You might recognize the Dominican-American actress, producer, and writer from the hit Netflix show GENTEFIED. As an entrepreneur, she creates thoughtfully designed products to help you realize your potential and live a happier, more fulfilling life.

Our conversation with multi-faceted talent explores the power of manifestation for your business and life in general. If you are a manifestation skeptic, Calderón shares a compelling story that might have you reconsidering the power of this sacred practice. Get your pen and paper out because you’ve got some dreaming to do.
