What an incredible day @hustleheartcollective! It was truly amazing and inspiring to be in a space with so many incredible individuals.

What made it more special was meeting in person my fellow Latina entrepreneurs from my @bellaentrepreneurs cohort and Rocio, the founder.

Plus seeing in person many fellow Latina entrepreneurs on social media, many of whom I’ve admired their work over the years. It was so nice to meeting @berenice_dolls, she’s a real sweetheart.

Thank you to @_foundla and @corissahernandez for an opportunity to learn, listen, and connect with one another.

@HustleHeartCollective hosted a day built for founders and small business owners (mainly first-generation) looking to grow their legacy.

Surrounded by 300+ entrepreneurs, we discussed funding strategies, marketing, and real community building.

Beautiful space with great vendors, drinks and weather. Check out my full recap video at the link in my bio! 👇

Wow… what a journey this has been. ❤️

When I started BELLA, I honestly didn’t know just how much this experience would mean to me. I learned so much, challenged myself, stepped outside of my comfort zone, and was given opportunities I never imagined I would have.

But the most beautiful part of this journey has been the women I met along the way. 🫶🏼 Women who shared their stories, their struggles, their dreams, and their knowledge. Women who encouraged me, inspired me, and reminded me that we don’t have to do this alone.

I’m walking away with so much more than what I came in with. I’m leaving with new knowledge, new opportunities, new confidence, beautiful memories, and most importantly, a few more sisters in my corner. ❤️

I’m so proud of myself for taking this step and allowing myself to grow. And I’m so excited to watch each and every one of these amazing women continue to grow, build, and chase their dreams.

Today may be the end of our cohort, but it truly feels like the beginning of something so much bigger. ✨

Cheers to us, our dreams, our businesses, and all the beautiful things waiting for us on the other side of this chapter. We did it! 🥂🎓❤️

Built to L.A.S.T. ❤️

Building something of your own teaches you that you’re never done learning. There’s always another idea, another challenge, and another opportunity to grow.
Sometimes growth means continuing to build on what’s working, and sometimes it means being willing to make changes, learn from what didn’t work, and find a better way forward.
Being surrounded by other entrepreneurs reminded me how important it is to step outside of the day to day, connect, exchange ideas, and surround yourself with people who inspire you to keep building and dreaming bigger.
Thank you @hustleheartcollective for bringing together such an amazing community of entrepreneurs and creating a space for us to learn, connect, and grow.

Leaving inspired, full of new ideas, and excited for what’s next. ❤️

Hustle & Heart Entrepreneur Summit 2026 ✨

What an amazing and inspiring event! I’m so grateful I had the opportunity to attend, connect, network, and be surrounded by so many talented entrepreneurs, creatives, business owners, and community leaders.

A special thank you to Corissa for putting together such a beautiful and empowering event. 💜 Seeing so many of our people building businesses, sharing knowledge, creating opportunities, and supporting one another was incredibly motivating.

There’s something powerful about walking into a space and seeing our community represented — people with dreams, stories, hustle, and HEART. ❤️

I walked away feeling inspired, motivated, and even more proud to be Latina. 🇲🇽✨

Here’s to continuing to connect, collaborate, support each other, and make room for the next generation. Sí se puede!
