Description

I’m excited to welcome back the incredible Ana Belaval to Corporate Cafecito! Her vibrant energy, inspiring story, and strong Latine spirit make her an unforgettable guest, & I couldn’t resist having her on the show again.

In today’s episode, Ana shares how her Puerto Rican heritage has shaped her career & identity and inspired her to connect with others through her powerful storytelling. From her impactful TED Talk to finding community in Chicago while dealing with homesickness, Ana’s story is a testament to strength, pride, & authenticity. Influenced by the role of family, her journey is a beautiful example of how cultural identity can be balanced with professional aspirations. 

Join us as we celebrate cultural pride, family, & the importance of staying true to oneself. This episode exemplifies the power of these values in shaping our lives.
