Get In The Ring: Run The Play!
from Jessie’s Place Podcast Hosted by Jessica Auberguste
In Episode 2 of Season 8, Jessie sits down with Edwin Acevedo, a respected national leader and advocate for the growth, influence, and advancement of the Latino community. Edwin brings a powerful perspective on leadership, the evolution of the Latino brand, and why it’s not enough to talk about having a seat at the table—we have to be intentional about getting in the rooms where the conversations, relationships, and opportunities are being created. We talk about NAHREP hosting Avance Global in Las Vegas, what that moment represents, and why being present in those rooms matters for the future of Latino business and leadership. Edwin also shares the mindset that has helped shape his journey: don’t run from your problems, run through them; get in the ring, run the play, and have a boxer’s mentality. This conversation is about resilience, representation, collective power, and the evolving influence of the Latino brand. Most importantly, it’s a reminder that the process may challenge you, but every challenge can prepare you for the room you’re meant to be in. Get in the ring. Run the play. Trust the process.
