A Little Mid-Season Break

Hola! We are halfway through season 11. 

I’m coming on today with a short episode because if you haven’t heard I’m in Mexico facilitating an amazing group with Rise and Thrive Latinas. It is our first collaborative Mexico trip, and I am recording this before we leave, but I’m beyond excited to be part of this perhaps first of many Rise and Thrive Latinas collaborations. 

If you remember I had Stephanie the founder of RTL on season 9 episode 105.

She has curated this amazing community with Rise and Thrive Latinas. Stephanie and I traveled together last year, and after that beautiful trip to Chiapas, she wanted to offer an experience like that to her community. And if you don’t know, I LOVE facilitating trips to Mexico that are meaningful, immersive, and restful. I like to create a time for people to connect with the land, to learn cultural traditions, and pour into ourselves in a way that is restorative.

So that’s where we are. Oaxaca Mexico! If you’re interested You can see some pictures on my personal IG @karinamora_prints

I also wanted to share some exciting events coming up! 

First of all, next week on March 15 we are hosting the Latina Brilliance mini summit. Inspired by this season of the podcast, finance, we are dedicating our time of learning to our financial understanding. 

We will have two interactive workshops: 

• Jasmine from Mentally Mutual will be leading her workshop on How to understand your money story.
• Adriana from Adriana Talks Dinero will be walking us through her workshop “from suenos to security: strategic money moves for your future.

And also have a Q&A time with our speakers.

One of the things that is the foundation of what I do with this podcast Elevating La Cultura, and with Latina Brilliance is to form community. There is so much wisdom and knowledge in our community and there’s so much value when we share it with each other. We help each other out. Especially when it comes to topics like money when in the past generations it might have been a taboo topic. 

We are shifting that, and having open and honest conversations so that we can collectively build generational wealth. 

So, join us on March 15 from 10am-2pm, for a time of intention, of learning, and sharing of knowledge and resources, and a time of community in general.
