SHOW NOTES
How do you amplify your moneda moves with your community to help make a palpable change?
I’m very excited to share that Lyanne Alfaro joined me for episode 57 of Ellas to talk about the important role that our Latinx community plays in the finance world.
Lyanne Alfaro amplifies the stories about what’s next in the world of technology, business, and entrepreneurship. She is passionate about exploring the Latino influence in the world of business which she speaks about via newsletter, podcast, and platform Moneda Moves.
As an award-winning journalist, Lyanne has reported in national outlets including CNBC, NBC Latino, Business Insider, Millie Magazine. She’s currently the supervising producer and social media content director at Nasdaq where she tells stories about the future of market technology and business.
In this inspiring conversation, Lyanne talks about the spark that ignited her passion in journalism, why she focuses on the important stories of the Latinx community within the business and finance world, and creating Moneda Moves that has ultimately become a tool for our community to be informed of the power that we have.
We also cover the importance of having sponsors, mentors, and advocates to help guide you within your career and the vital conversation we need to have with our friends and families to build generational wealth.
