Episode 5: “How I Built a 60K-Member Community Through Amigas Latinas w/ Daniela Araya-Molina” 🎙️ I’m thrilled to introduce you to Dani and her incredible journey as a content creator in my latest YouTube video! 📸 It all started with a special gift—her very first camera from her godfather. As a kid, Dani vlogged every moment, even the times when her sister would cry! 😋  It’s amazing to think that at just 10 years old, she was taking selfies every single day, and now her parents have entire hard drives filled with those precious memories! Fast forward to COVID, when Dani discovered her voice on TikTok. 🎉 Upon graduating, she began sharing her unique experiences working at big firms, providing a fresh perspective that often goes unheard. 💪 Are you ready to be inspired? Dive into the full video on YouTube and uncover the pivotal moments that have shaped Dani's journey! What’s your story? I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments! 💬✨ #latinaownedbusiness #inclusion #NotYourSpicyLatina #representationmatters #podcast #career #careeradvice #careercoach #careerdevelopment #careergrowth #careergoals #entrepreneur #latina #latinx #latine #community #communitybuilder #tiktok #latinapodcast #workplace #content #contentcreator #contentmarketing #contentcreators #contentcreation #event #eventplanning #eventmanagement #volunteer #marketing #jobsearch

 It’s that time again — Latina Equal Pay Day is here! 💥 Latinas are the backbone of our economy, excelling in every industry, yet we’re still fighting for equal pay. Right now, Latinas earn just 51 cents for every dollar paid to white, non-Hispanic men. This gap affects our families, our communities, and the future we’re building. Join us today and demand what we deserve. ¡PÁGAME lo que valgo! 💪 True equity cannot be achieved until every Latina is compensated fairly for her work. The time for silence is over. We will not be overlooked. Together, let’s raise our voices, stand for wage justice, and fight for the future we deserve. ¡Únete al movimiento, Amiga! Swipe right to learn why this day matters, how YOU can take action, and why we refuse to stay silent, because calladitas no nos vemos más bonitas. #latinaequalpay #págame #infórmateamiga #trabajadoras #wagejustice #equalpaynow #latinapower #equityforall #fairpay #latinasrise #weallgrowlatina #amigahood
