🌺 I recently had the chance to see the corpse flower (Amorphophallus titanum) in bloom — and it really stayed with me. 🌺
This rare flower is known not just for its dramatic, towering bloom, but also for its strong, challenging scent. At first, it might seem off-putting, but the corpse flower teaches us a beautiful lesson: real strength and beauty come from embracing every part of ourselves — even the messy, complicated, and uncomfortable parts.
As Latina leaders, we carry the strength of our ancestors, the passion of our culture, and the dreams of our families. And yet, we also face unique challenges — from systemic barriers to the emotional weight of navigating multiple worlds. These tough times ask us to show up again and again, even when we feel stretched thin.
Like the corpse flower’s rare bloom, our fullest growth happens when we honor all parts of our journey — the light and the shadow. When we treat ourselves with kindness and compassion, we can lead with authenticity, resilience, and heart.
If you’re ready to embrace your whole self, build resilience, and lead in a way that honors your roots and your power, I’m here to support you. I offer workshops and coaching designed especially for Latina leaders, focused on well-being, self-acceptance, and sustainable leadership.
