She Built a Community for Latin Women in the UK From Scratch | Katya Rivas on Latina Society, Content Creation & Finding Your People

Katya Rivas was fifteen years old when she fell in love with YouTube. It took a move to London, a language barrier, and a gap she couldn't ignore to turn that passion into something real.In this episode, Katya shares the story behind founding Latina Society — a community and events platform empowering Latin women across the UK and Europe — and what it actually took to build it while holding down a full time job and figuring out a brand new country at the same time.We talk about content creation, community building, and what consistency really looks like when nobody's watching yet. We also get into the business side — brand partnerships, negotiation, financial lessons from the creator economy, and how to stay grounded when growth starts to feel competitive.Warm, inspiring and genuinely full of heart — this one's for anyone who's ever wanted to build something that brings people together.⚡ What we cover:→ Starting a YouTube channel at 15 and what that taught her about content → Moving to London and navigating cultural adaptation from scratch → Founding Latina Society and building a community with no blueprint → Balancing a corporate career with growing a social platform and events business → Brand partnerships, negotiations and financial lessons from the creator economy → Social media growth strategies and platform features that actually work → Expanding Latina Society across Europe — Milan, Paris, Madrid and beyond → Staying humble, authentic and resilient in a competitive creator space🎙 She's Lost Control — the podcast for ambitious creatives who are done playing small. 💌 Join #TheChaosClub → www.instagram.com/sheslostcontrolpodcast/
