Unmute Your Potential with Cinthia FigueroaUnmute Your Potential with Cinthia Figueroa18. From Introversion to Public SpeakingI used to be so shy that I couldn't even ask for candy at the store when I was little—I'd whisper in my brother's ear so he could ask for me.Now I train teams, lead presentations, and host this podcast.

It’s not my English—it’s your expectationsWhen did "native" become the benchmark?It's 2025, and someone told me my accent wasn't native enough—for a project similar to many I've delivered before.It hurt. I started doubting myself.And maybe you've been there too—wondering if your English is "good enough," or worse, feeling like you have to sound native.Here's what I realized:You don't need to sound native to be valuable.You have the right to stand up for your work and your voice.You're allowed to ask, to negotiate, and to take up space.2025-07-0927 minUnmute Your Potential with Cinthia FigueroaUnmute Your Potential with Cinthia Figueroa14.
