Hey everyone! Today is Latina equal pay day and it is a very real issue. In the corporate and freelance jobs I’ve had, after hearing people talk about what they were getting paid or even seeing what those got paid after I left, I found myself heartbroken and severely underpaid compared to white women and forget about the wage gap between latinas and white men. I worked hard, picked things up fast, problem solved, multitasked, learned new skills and was able to do the jobs of some getting paid tens of thousands more than me. I would be fought back when I’d ask for a 2-5 dollar raise an hour while my counterparts were getting salary’s of 45-75k a year. I have been told it was because of no degree, lack of experience etc while all of my work was completed regardless of those qualifications. I now have a bachelors from @ucf.edu in political science, tons of experience and I’m working side jobs while fighting for my dreams still underpaid. On the set of my short film, every time I had to raise the pay for a man, I would text my female workers and increase their pay. I hope I’m starting off producing the way the studios should. Full honesty and fair pay depending on the job and workload. Many of my previous employers sat in wealth while I cried with cystic acne and maxed credit cards from being over worked and underpaid. Swipe for stats on Latina women pay and why it should change. #latinaequalpayday #demandmore @themujerista @smugmorenita @weallgrowlatina

A post for @w_a_r_f, his new short film ‘Something in the clouds’ and his new production company @blackpigeonstudios. It is truly a feat to make movies on the indie level before you have any help and backing from major studios. I will ALWAYS support my friends and peers hustling to story tell. Why? Because at this level, there is so much passion and care behind the stories we tell. It’s not to make a buck, it’s to touch the hearts of those watching, to truly entertain and to do what we love. Congrats again Jonathan, can’t wait to watch your growth while cheering from the sidelines. You’re a talent through and through but your heart is the real gold!!
To my fellow workaholics, dreamers, jugglers, here’s your reminder to take some down time for you. Reevaluate the stresses in your life. Take a minute to see how far you’ve come and express gratitude for the peaks and valleys. I throw the weight of the world on my shoulders and it is starting to express itself inside my body. Outside, all good. Fit, healthy. Inside, my heart is telling me to slow down. So here’s your reminder. Don’t let stress and worries manifest itself in your life. Breathe and take it day by day. I am going to take my own advice.
