Cycle Breakers & Money MakersFor First Gen & WOC leaders breaking ceilings in their industries and lineage Author: Mariela De La Mora Leadership & Business Mentor for Women of Color
For daughters of immigrants and WOC who are breaking cycles in their family by earning more than "just enough" and doing what no one before them has. Join me, Mariela De La Mora, as I help you break free in survival mode, lead with confidence and make more money doing it. Each week, we will dive into business, mindset and leadership coaching that is focused on the lived experiences of First Gen. Because let's be real - daughters of immigrants need to be coached differently. As the eldest daughter of immigrants, I have personally broken cycles and helped over 100 women do the same. I left a 16 year career as a Marketing Executive where I was the only WOC in the space, to now coaching 6-7 figure CEOs and high ranking women at organizations like Google, Microsoft and the United Nations. Using the tools I teach, I've since built a million-dollar business as a single mom. Well cover topics that will help you become an unstoppable, badass, money-making leader who knows her worth and has the receipts to show for it.
