As I shared earlier in the year — we are transitioning from College and Career Coffee Chats to First Gen Homies!!! 🥰 Make sure you follow the new podcast page to follow along on new episode releases!! 

Y’all!!! WE BACK ON THAT PODCAST FLOW: after some end of semester busy-ness, finals & some travels being OUTSIDE OUTSIDE — we are back INSIDE integrating, processing, & sharing some podcast goodness.

Check out the new episode: CCCC Episode 27: Poderosa coding Chat con Lidia De La Cruz: “Rejection is Redirection”

Lidia is a first gen, eldest daughter and afro latina born and raised in The Bronx, she recently pivoted into tech during the pandemic, she graduated from a coding bootcamp and embarked on her journey of becoming a Software Engineer and documenting her story as a Latina in Tech without a Computer Science Degree. She is a community builder and not gate keeping resources nor tips for women who want to break into tech. She has grown her internet community on IG called @poderosacoding where she provides content for folks wanting to transition into tech.

We recored this gem in JANUARY during the New Year — though it might seem like a while ago — this is a PERFECT time to release this episode. 

We are in summer flow reconnecting with nature / the flow of life after winter months in the Northeast — in a way we are defrosting. We are also 6 months ish into the year — so what a perfect time to take stock of our goals and aspirations and reevaluate where we are at.

Lidia mentioned she wanted to show up for in person events, speaking engagements, and panel discussions related to being Latina in Tech! Make sure you keep her in mind when booking someone to do these events and book her ASAP! 

Together we process imposter syndrome, pivoting careers, and making a commitment to support students who are underresourced & continue to be the minority in spaces such as the tech industry & higher education!

Make sure you listen and let us know your fave part of the episode!

She is a Latina entrepreneur, motivational speaker, certified Spanish language translator & higher education consultant🌟

👩🏻‍🎓 She graduated in May 2022 from the Harvard Graduate School of Education (HGSE) with a master's in Higher Education Administration. She has a bachelor's in Political Science and a minor in Spanish. Her story has been featured on CBS News, Univision, ABC News, Good Morning America, AL DÍA News, and Telemundo.

🇲🇽➡️🇺🇸Nataly immigrated to the U.S. from El Mezquital, Durango, Mexico, when she was 5. As the first person in her family to obtain a high school diploma in the U.S., a bachelor's, and now a master's, she firmly believes that education is liberation. A first-generation college student, she is passionate about connecting with underrepresented students and guiding them through professional development opportunities. She's received various nationally competitive scholarships, including the Hispanic Scholarship Fund and the Gilman Scholarship, which supported her study abroad in Peru and Spain. She currently serves on the Atlanta Advisory Council for the Hispanic Scholarship Fund.

📚An English language learner and formerly undocumented child, she is an ally for multilingual and immigrant communities. After obtaining her green card at age 11, she grew up traveling between the U.S. and her beloved México, lindo y querido.

🏫 Nataly is currently developing a project called: "Un pedacito de México" to connect Latinx students in the U.S. with their heritage by providing them with embroidered graduation stoles, artisanal jewelry, and traditional sweets elaborated by artisans in her hometown in Mexico. A percentage of every sale supports the educational needs of the children of the artisans.

👩‍👧She attributes all her success to her mother, Veronica, who in 2001 risked her life crossing the U.S. Mexico Border so that she could cross a graduation stage at Harvard in 2022.

CCCC Szn 2: Ep. 4 Human Design is LIT with Morrie Hudiburg

Morrie Hudiburg is a recruiter, Human Design analyst, and career coach on a mission to help people thrive in their careers. Morrie discovered Human Design about 4 years ago and was immediately sold on the system when she applied the concepts to her career and job search process. Now, she teaches others to embrace their unique energetics and apply Human Design concepts to their careers.

Morrie offers Career Focused Human Design readings, Guidance Sessions, and 1:1 career coaching.

I loveeeeee this conversation with my TikTik bestie! 

We met on the inter webs during the 2020 version of the panini and we have stayed in touch learning about our collective mission to help people follow their bliss and live truly their authentic lives

We discuss all things:

💬Human Design

💬Career Pivots, layoffs, & industry moves

💬Recruiting & the dance of applying to jobs

🎉At the heart of what we both do as Career “Coaches” is guide those who work with us back to themselves — as cheesy as it may sound — reconnecting with Self is THE ANSWER — and listening to your inner knowing truly has all the answers.

We can talk about how the intersections of our identities shifts and sometimes works against us because of the way we have been socialized in this society. 

Morrie says it beautifully 🤗: “The purpose of working with a coach is for you to uncover your own answers inside you”

Since our chat in September — Morrie has had another career pivot!! Check out her social media to learn about what she is up to knowawdays! 

Through her own life journey Morrie teaches us that life is an ebb and flow and we must learn to follow it and stay true to what works best for YOU… if changing careers is what you want — DO IT BOO BOO

IF jumping into entrepreneurship is something you want to try like Morrie said on the episode: “JUST DO IT” (we also navigate the conversations around this and how sometimes we let FEAR get the best of us… 

She leaves us with this gem: “It always has to come from you” — Morrie

We back back after a little hiatus…

So excited for y’all to listen in on these juicy conversations with First-Generation professionals, students, and nuggets of wisdom along the way

The whole theme of conversation for this season is:

🎓The Path is NOT Linear

🎓 Ask For Help — Seek Assistance sooner than later (spoiler alert: it doesn’t make you any “weaker” to ask for what you need)

🎓 You Belong wherever you are in this moment (in your course, your institution, your work environment) — though systems were not created with First-Generation students in mind you still belong and should take up all the space you need & want

SOOO CLICHE FAM But Ima say it — YOUR PATH IS YOUR PATH… its about finding the courage to walk it unapologetically and authentically in our own skin… 

How do we do this?

💜We find communities of support whether its family or chosen family

💜We commit to our own healing and liberation so fiercely that we start to chip away at Imposter Syndrome

💜 Like Dr. Andrea Hunt says “We have to really own our stories and what our path is going to be and not get caught up in comparing yourself to other people”

This episode and podcast is an ode to First-Generation students and professionals navigating lyfe 

ONWARD! You got this! 🤗🎓🎉🥳🦋💜
