EP 181 - From Shame to Empowerment When Learning a New Skill with Jackie and Wendy of Spanish Sin Pena

Whole Damn Vibe

Today I’m interviewing Jackie Rodriguez & Wendy Ramirez—the founders of Spanish Sin Pena and two of the leaders I featured inside the Latinx + Hispanic Heritage Month Pop-Up Directory on Instagram. Through this directory and interview series, my hope is to use my platform to help amplify the voices and stories of other badass latinx leaders.

Spanish Sin Pena is a dedicated language academy fostering Spanish fluency and cultural pride. Their dynamic courses celebrate Latinx heritage, connecting students with their roots and empowering them to embrace their identity.

Tune in today as we dive into how to move from shame to empowerment when learning a new skill with Jackie and Wendy.

Inside today's episode, we dive into:

• Being raised in entirely different ways yet still struggling with language and identity
• Creating a safe space to confidently embrace who you are
• How to move from shame to empowerment when learning a new language
• Feeling like you're not enough because you don't know it all
• Embracing your story and no longer hiding
• Experiencing faster growth through imperfect action
• Owning your area of expertise in a different language
• Taking small action that leads to massive shifts in confidence
• Finding fun and creative ways to learn new skills
• Feeling more connected to your identity
• Surrounding yourself in community and feeling safe to be vulnerable and take up more space
• The power of connecting with your community in real life
