from Querida Latina · host queridalatinapodcast

In this week's episode, I had the privilege of interviewing my coach, Erika Cruz, who helped me build the courage to start this podcast! Erika Cruz is the Founder of Courage Driven Latina, a Coach, Speaker, and host of the Chingona Revolution podcast. After leaving her six-figure job in tech, Erika moved back into her childhood home and launched her coaching business, growing it to multiple six figures within 12 months. She’s helped hundreds of Latinas gain clarity, find alignment, and lead with courage.
