Elevating La Cultura Podcast
Welcome to Elevating la Cultura Podcast®.
A space where I talk with Latinas who are passionate about what they do and are willing to share that passion with others to change the narrative especially for the next generation. Each season is centered around different topics but all with the Latina perspective. Welcome to season 10 where I’m talking with Latinas who have founded non-profits.

Crystal Dorado: Reclaiming her ancestral legacy to bring traditional healing practices to her neighborhood.
This week, I’m excited to share my conversation with Crystal from Verde Wellness Studio. She is an energy holistic practitioner and massage therapist. She shares about how she is continuing her families ancestral legacy by offering practices and massage therapies that have been passed down through generations. She’s also been intentional about serving the community she grew up in. Crystal offers us so much encouragement in this episode, so I hope you enjoy our conversation.

Her whole interview is inspiring for us who have felt disconnected or embarrassed about our culture when we were younger. I love how she shares that she has reclaimed the value of holistic wellness through ancestral practices, with the intention of sharing with others.
I know that throughout this episode I was feeling so nostalgic as she talked about some of the ancestral practices because I remember experiencing them as a kid from my tia.
