About Me
Hola, I’m Maira!
Award-winning author, photographer, and self-proclaimed aventurera.
I help people reconnect with their raíces to use the lessons from their cultural heritage to empower themselves to be badass individuals.
Straddling the best of both worlds from bailes in the rancho, to meetings in the board room, and creative pursuits to live a more balanced life!
I believe that we all hold the wisdom to help us live a joyful and empowered life, some of us have just lost sight of it in the hustle and bustle of assimilating to an American career and lifestyle. With travel, storytelling, cooking (or eating) and dancing we can reconnect with the joy that so many of our ancestors lived with and bring it to our communities.
Being stuck between two cultures is hard, but knowing how to dance with both can be fun! It takes a lot of unlearning of the American culture and re-learning more of our ancestral heritage to be able to tie the two and create a more powerful identity. Join me on this journey!
Abrazos,
Maira
