EP. 189: How These Latina Leaders Found Courage to Quit, Pivot, and Launch with Revekka Balancier, Anahi Bravo, and Maideli Garcia

So many of the guests we've had on the podcast are some of the most courageous people I’ve ever met. As Latinas, the odds are often stacked against us. Not only are we separated from our homelands, but the country is systematically trying to keep us from succeeding. This is exactly why I wanted to take the time to shout out some incredible women who beat the odds and gave themselves the lives they always dreamed of. 

 

Revekka Balancier, the founder of Axiom of Purpose, leverages nearly 30 years of marketing and communications experience, bold creativity, and passion for the purpose to craft impactful campaigns dedicated to the greater good. After spending a decade in Hollywood publicity and promotions working on movies for Disney, Paramount, Universal, and other studios, she shifted her focus to public service. She served in key communication roles for the Lt. Governor of Colorado, Denver Human Services, Denver Public Works, the Denver Mayor’s Office, and the Port of San Diego, where she launched the agency’s new brand. She spent two years as creative strategy VP for a boutique agency before starting Axiom, focusing exclusively on purpose-driven projects, channeling her expertise toward positive environmental and social change. She spends most weekends brunching with her granddaughters, searching for better crepes than the ones she learned to make from her abuelita – hasn’t happened yet!

 

Anahi Bravo is a First-Gen Mexican American and was born and raised in Houston, TX. As someone who comes from an immigrant background, she’s found a passion in helping the community. She is a social worker who supports unaccompanied minors, which has been a fulfilling and learning experience. During her free time, she enjoys working out and trying new hobbies. She’s also in her running and soccer era! She takes pride in being a dog mom, and she enjoys spending time with family.

 

Maideli Garcia is a Latina money coach helping WOC save, invest, and earn more without sacrificing their JOY. She is the daughter of Mexican immigrants and the First-Gen to attend college. She got her BA in Elementary Education, but after experiencing burnout, Maideli pivoted out of teaching and into the tech space, working remotely. She now has more energy and time to commit to her mission of helping WOC confidently take control of their finances.

 

This week’s episode is a mash-up of three women who found their courage and manifested their most amazing life. Whether it was starting a business, launching a podcast, or reaching out to help their communities, they each made the courageous choice to take aligned action. They took their ideas to the Courage Driven Latina program and made their wildest dreams come true. Tune in to this week’s episode to hear how they did it and how you can do it too.
