Welcome to episode 90 of The American Dream in the Eyes of Immigrants Podcast. I am your host, Heidy De La Cruz, and I am on a mission to change the narrative of immigration one immigrant story at a time!
Carla Santamaria is the host of The First Gen Coach Podcast. A podcast for first-generation professionals who are learning to rethink their limiting cultural beliefs and level up their mindsets. Carla is also a career coach, helping women increase their salaries and improve their mindset.
She shares with us her upbringing in Honduras, the culture shocks she experienced when she first moved to South Florida, and how she doubled her salary in under 10 months!
With Love, Heidy
