Corporate Con Sazón
We love our cultura but don’t want it to be reduced.
In this week’s episode of Corporate Cafecito, we have an honest conversation about what it really means to be Latino at work, especially when Hispanic Heritage Month rolls around.
Too often, visibility becomes a burden. You’re passionate, and suddenly, you're expected to plan the party, decorate the room, and represent an entire culture.
🎭 When “representation” feels like responsibility
🛑 When saying yes to culture means saying no to yourself
💡 When there’s a better way rooted in voice, leadership, and boundaries
We’ve both felt it.
Being Latine in the workplace is not just about potlucks or playlists.
It’s about strategy, voice, and leadership con propósito.
In this episode, we share real tools to:
✅ Set boundaries with grace and intention
✅ Celebrate all parts of our cultura, not just stereotypes
✅ Advocate for visibility that leads to influence
Let’s make this Hispanic Heritage Month count with corazón, comunidad, and claridad.
