Today, host Chef Carla Contreras is joined by Jen and Vero Zeano of JZD, a Latina empowerment brand creating products to empower our community through nostalgia, remembering our roots, and celebrating the beauty of being Latina. In this episode, we discuss how the couple built their amazing company, how great it is to work in a family business, and the importance of mental health.                                                          

The JZD brand began to take off when their product messages went viral, first “My heart goes bidi bidi bom bom” then “LATINA POWER.” Jen and Vero share how they built JZD one small step at a time and then reinvested each success back into the business. Their commitment to going the extra mile in connecting with amazing Latina celebrities, like Aimee Carrero, to not only increase revenue but also spread their powerful messages is truly admirable. They’ve been able to translate their personal experiences into uplifting branding for their entire community, and it’s truly no wonder that JZD is one of the best in the biz.
