E-60 Defying Expectations as a First Gen with Mayra Rosas
Dear First Gens,
In this episode, host Sara welcomes guest Mayra Rosas to a new episode of The First Gen Madrina Podcast! This gives us a brand new episode for this month's theme, Defying Expectations as a First Gen!
Mayra Rosas is a writer, speaker, and passionate connection builder whose contagious energy and powerful story are sure to inspire you. A proud native of South Central Los Angeles and first-generation daughter of immigrants from Mexico and El Salvador, Mayra brings a radiant joy and deep commitment to celebrating the brilliance and dreams of the Latina community. Her life's mission was sparked at the remarkably young age of 15 when she began writing with an unwavering determination to ensure Latinas felt seen, heard, and represented. That early passion for amplifying Latina voices laid the foundation for Mayra's dynamic career across multiple industries. After thriving for seven years in television, she bravely pivoted to devote herself to initiatives creating meaningful impact. Today, she partners with major brands on meaningful campaigns, providing resources, opportunities, and platforms for the Latine community. Whether she's pouring her heart into powerful written pieces, sharing her inspiring voice, or fostering connections through visionary community building, Mayra's unstoppable spirit and passion for uplifting others radiates in all that she does.
