🎧 NEW EPISODE – S8 E11: “Why Me… and Not Them?"

Have you ever reached a milestone you once dreamed of, only to feel a knot in your stomach instead of pure joy? That quiet voice that whispers, “Why me… and not them?”

Success is supposed to feel joyful. But for many of us, it also feels complicated.

There is a quiet weight that comes when your first bonus equals your parents’ monthly income, when you travel for work while your family never had the chance, or when you are seen as the “chosen one” who now carries everyone’s hopes.

That weight is called survivor's guilt. And in our comunidad, it shows up often.

In this cafecito, we open our hearts about what it means to achieve more than generations before us and how guilt, pride, and imposter syndrome collide along the way. We talk about:

☕ Why success can feel heavy instead of freeing
☕ The cultural tension between collective pride and individual achievement
☕ How to move from “Why me” to “Why not me”
☕ Reframing success as responsibility, not betrayal
☕ Celebrating our wins and bringing others along with us

We believe your éxito is not selfish. It is a path for others to follow.

💬 We invite you to join the conversation. Have you ever felt survivor's guilt in your career? What helped you move through it?

S8 E10: Más Datos, Más Dinero – Why Every Latine Professional Should Understand Business Metrics

Mid-year is the perfect moment to pause and ask: Am I on track to hit my goals? Do I know the números that truly tell me the answer?

Hard work opens doors, but knowing your business numbers is what keeps you in the room. Many Latine professionals are over-mentored and under-sponsored, and that includes not being taught the métricas that matter most or how to speak about them in a way that gets noticed.

💡 In this cafecito, we cover:
• The business métricas you should know, even if you are not in finance
• How to tie your work to revenue, retention, or ROI so your contributions are visible
• Why understanding ROI and opportunity cost changes how you spend your tiempo, dinero, and energy
• Simple ways to start learning, from sitting in on finance meetings to using free resources

This is more than a conversation about numbers. It is about using mid-year as your checkpoint to measure, adjust, and set yourself up to finish the year fuerte.

Let’s be real. Most of us are not exhausted from one big decision. We are drained by the hundreds of small ones we make before noon.

From “What should I wear?” to “Can I squeeze in this meeting?”, decision overload is real. And for many in our Latine community, the mental load runs even deeper. We are holding space for our families, our teams, and our dreams at once.

In this cafecito, we open up about the daily weight we carry and how to ease the pressure:
✅ What decision fatigue looks like at work and at home
✅ How culture and gender shape our mental load
✅ Boundaries that protect your peace without guilt
✅ How to lead with clarity, not just hustle

You are not lazy. You might just be overloaded.
Protecting your energy is not selfish.
It is leadership. It is love.

👇 Tell us in the comments:
Where does your decision fatigue hit the hardest. Work, home, or both?

Jaime Viteri, President of Digital Latinos and founder of the Chicago Latino Network, said it best:

“You can’t just call the network when you need the network.”

Jaime’s right. A real network isn’t built overnight or only when things get tough. It’s built over time, with intention, presence, and love. You show up for your people, even when there’s nothing to ask for. You give, support, connect, and stay rooted because that’s what comunidad looks like.

In this cafecito, we sat down with Jaime to reflect on the 25-year journey behind one of the most recognized platforms for Latine professionals in Chicago: the Chicago Latino Network.

What began as one man’s vision to bring Latines together across professions has become a legacy. Today, CLN connects over 100,000 professionals and entrepreneurs. Jaime shares what it takes to build comunidad, elevate cultura, and shape generations of connection with humility, vision, and corazón.

The moment Danny Miró-Chinea showed up in our LinkedIn feed, we knew. He was not just another voice. He was building something powerful, doing it from every corner of Latin America.

He had a prestigious legal career lined up.
He walked away.

Why?
Because titles are not the purpose, and Danny chose a purpose.

Born in Puerto Rico. Raised between cultures.
🌎 Now living in Buenos Aires, sharing Latine stories through his platform Comprende and helping brands speak to our community with real authenticity.

In this episode, Danny shares:
🛠 Why he left law to build movements, not résumés
🌱 What it means to be a digital nomad grounded in culture
📣 Why Spanglish is strategy, not just slang
📊 How brands can finally connect with Latino audiences
🪞 And what happens when you stop waiting for a seat and start building your own table

This is more than a podcast, it is a wake-up call to live purposefully and create with corazón.

We love our cultura but don’t want it to be reduced.

In this week’s episode of Corporate Cafecito, we have an honest conversation about what it really means to be Latino at work, especially when Hispanic Heritage Month rolls around.

Too often, visibility becomes a burden. You’re passionate, and suddenly, you're expected to plan the party, decorate the room, and represent an entire culture.

🎭 When “representation” feels like responsibility
🛑 When saying yes to culture means saying no to yourself
💡 When there’s a better way rooted in voice, leadership, and boundaries

We’ve both felt it.

Being Latine in the workplace is not just about potlucks or playlists.
It’s about strategy, voice, and leadership con propósito.

In this episode, we share real tools to:
✅ Set boundaries with grace and intention
✅ Celebrate all parts of our cultura, not just stereotypes
✅ Advocate for visibility that leads to influence

Let’s make this Hispanic Heritage Month count with corazón, comunidad, and claridad.

What’s in a Name?

Let’s talk accents, identity, and the power behind the words we carry.

In this new episode of Corporate Cafecito, we open up about the real moments that shaped us, being mispronounced as kids. Being told we "think in Spanish" at work and learning to reclaim our names and speak with pride.

Whether you grew up bilingual, speak Spanglish, or were never taught Spanish because your parents were trying to protect you, you belong in this conversation.

☕️ In this episode, we explore:
🌍 What your accent says about you
🧠 Why thinking in Spanish is not a flaw. It's a leadership advantage
🧒🏽 Childhood moments that shaped our confidence
🎙️ When Spanglish hit mainstream and why it mattered
🤝 How to create spaces where every voice is heard and respected

Language is not a barrier. It is a bridge.
Your voice, your accent, your story. All of it is part of your superpower.

Say your name with pride. Speak your truth con fuerza.
We’re building this space together. 💛

This week on Corporate Cafecito, we sit down with the powerhouse Mariana Fagnilli, JD, LLM - a human rights lawyer turned global DEI executive, founder of Fagnilli Group, and now international change-maker redefining what real inclusion looks like.
