Right now my plate is pretty full as I celebrate HISPANIC HERITAGE MONTH by amplifying the voices of speakers from our comunidad 🎉 Pero después?? I LOVE the idea of welcoming a new cohort of Latinas who are ready to get visible, grow their speaker brand, and attract really cool opportunities Although I have very little capacity as a toddler mama who works part-time hours, I am ready for the challenge—to grow my capacity while going all in on an OFF-THE-CUFF launch!!! Here's where I need your help 👇🏽 Once HHM wraps up, should I go all in on this launch right away on October 16th or wait until the 19th?? Bonus points if you have a specific reason why 🤭💖 We're about to build real momentum in comunidad, amiguis!!! by @speakermovement

Meet Richard Morales (they/them)—the founder of Blueprint Brands and creator of its human-centered methodology, helping individuals, leaders, entrepreneurs, and organizations move from uncertainty to action. Drawing on more than three decades of experience across entertainment, branding, education, and business, Richard combines storytelling, practical strategy, and real-world experience to help people find clarity, strengthen communication, and create meaningful momentum. His approach begins with a simple belief: people before processes. Whether helping someone navigate their next chapter or helping an organization build stronger teams and better outcomes, Richard creates space for people to feel seen, supported, and equipped to move forward. His mission is simple: stop admiring someone else’s blueprint and start building your own. SWIPE 👈🏽 for a sneak peak on the story they want to share more on stages 🎉 Help us celebrate our cultura for Hispanic Heritage Month and amplify the voices of some incredible people who are doing meaningful work in the world SUPPORT RICHARD ✌🏽 Follow @blueprintbrands 🎤 Book them to speak at your next event or on your podcast JOIN THE MOVEMENT 🎉 Follow @speakermovement + comment DIRECTORY to get featured on the official directory website "Ever feel stuck? Stuck in a dead-end job, trying to figure out your next step, or overwhelmed by too many choices? Maybe your organization feels stuck, too—good people, good ideas, but somehow the team isn't moving forward. We've all been there. And more often than not, the answer isn't another strategy, another meeting, or more information. It's clarity. It's understanding people before processes, creating the conditions for people to feel seen and supported, and turning clarity into movement. Because whether you're building your next chapter or building a better organization, progress begins when we stop asking, “What's wrong?” and start asking, “What do we need to move forward?” Sometimes, you don't need someone to hand you a blueprint. You need someone to help you recognize that you already have the pieces. Time to turn the page. Let's blueprint it." by @speakermovement

Meet Dr. Minerva Arias (she/her), Ìyá Ọyaladé—an Ọya Priestess, scholar-practitioner, author, and founder of Sagrada. Her work lives at the threshold of grief, death, endings, and transformation, exploring what these experiences can teach us about being human when we meet them through relationship, rather than fear. As a Caribbean woman shaped by ancestral traditions and years of study across psychology, trauma, somatics, yoga and end-of-life care, Minerva brings the sacred and the scholarly into conversation. Off the clock? She’s mothering, talking to her ancestors, tending something green, or somewhere near the Caribbean Sea.

MINERVA ✌🏽 Follow @sagradard 🎤 Book them to speak at your next event or on your podcast JOIN THE MOVEMENT 🎉 Follow @speakermovement + comment DIRECTORY to get featured on the official directory website "We spend so much of our lives trying to avoid endings. We hold onto relationships, identities, versions of ourselves, even ways of living that have already completed their cycle because we've been taught to understand an ending as failure, loss, or something going terribly wrong. But as a Priestess of Ọya, I have learned to see endings differently. An ending is not only about what is being taken from us. It is a threshold. And sometimes, the life we are asking for cannot arrive until we are willing to stand at that threshold and release what can no longer come with us. Death, too, is a threshold. It changes the way we are in relationship with those we love, but it does not have to end that relationship. Our ancestors remind us that we remain connected across worlds and that as we move through our own endings, we do not move alone. We are held by those who came before us, guided by our Ori, and accompanied by the wisdom of Ọya as we cross from what was into what is becoming. I want us to become less afraid of endings because ending, grieving, transforming, and beginning by @speakermovement

I was born hard of hearing. But my parents didn't know why I was hard of hearing or needed hearing aids. When I was 17, I was diagnosed with Usher Syndrome, which provided those answers. It was unexpected. After my diagnosis, I started to deal with having a progressive vision disability and what that meant for me and my life. I'm also Cuban and Puerto Rican, and my Latiné identity is a really important part of who I am. I founded Blindish Latina because I wanted to share my story of being a disabled Latina woman. I wanted to be the representation I myself did not have. Many people don’t know a lot about disability and are uncomfortable even SAYING the word. But we need to say the word, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with disability.” — Catarina Rivera 🎉 Help us celebrate our cultura for Hispanic Heritage Month and amplify the voices of some incredible people who are doing meaningful work in the world SUPPORT CATARINA ✌🏽 Follow @blindishlatina 🎤 Book them to speak at your next event or on your podcast JOIN THE MOVEMENT 🎉 Follow @speakermovement + comment DIRECTORY to get fe by @speakermovement

Meet Daniela Esparza (she/her/ella)—a Writer, Astrologer, and Spiritual Companion—founding Mejor Amiga to help you trade hustle culture for alma-first rhythms. Her mission? Curating a Latina gift shop that honors tradition without the clichés, celebrating inclusivity over stereotypes. Every candle lit and talavera piece gifted fuels advocacy for domestic violence survivors—because community care is spiritual care. Beyond the shop, you'll find her decoding Mercury retrogrades, sipping cafecito con leche, and reminding everyone that healing isn't linear—it's a dance.

It just isn't yours yet. Somewhere along the way, we traded our ancestral knowing for hustle, our intuition for output, our cycles for calendars that weren't built for us. But here's the truth: rest is resistance, joy is justice, and your body already knows the way home. When you stop performing productivity and start living in alignment with your own natural cadence—whether that's lunar, seasonal, or simply yours—you don't just heal yourself. You give everyone around you permission to do the same. That's how we break cycles. That's how we build a new world.” — Daniela Esparza 🎉 Help us celebrate our cultura for Hispanic Heritage Month and amplify the voices of some incredible people who are doing meaningful work in the world SUPPORT DANIELA ✌🏽 Follow @mejoramigahq 🎤 Book them to speak at your next event or on your podcast JOIN THE MOVEMENT 🎉 Follow @speakermovement + comment DIRECTORY to get featured on the official directory website by @speakermovement
