On this episode, I’m joined by Brittany Chavez, the founder of ShopLatinx a marketplace which showcases Latinx crafts and art. We talk about how a 2016 trip to Guatemala and Nicaragua inspired Brittany to start her immensely successful business, representation in the Latinx community and what it’s like to navigate whiteness as a Latina. I hope you enjoy!

XO,
