Would you leave a 20+ years successful career in corporate to pursue your entrepreneurship dreams? 

In today's episode, I'm joined by a true powerhouse of a woman, the Cuban American Emmy award-winning producer Venessa Rojas. Venessa is the Founder of V Collectiv, a Miami-based event and creative collective formed by several award-winning event producers with proven experience in the US Hispanic market. Before starting her business in 2020, Venessa produced TV shows, a Christmas special at the White House with Gloria Estefan and President Obama, and worked with multiple personalities, like Oprah, Quincy Jones, and Gloria and Emilio Estefan.  

Venessa also produced for broadcast giants like Univision and Telemundo, revamped several brands, helping them attract and retain new customers, and finds personal fulfillment in volunteering for the Alzheimer's Association.

Throughout our conversation, you'll hear about Venessa's background and upbringing, her journey into the entertainment industry, and the moment she risked it all and decided to start her own business. We also talk about the importance of living authentically, paying attention to the universe's messaging, trusting our capacity to succeed at things we've never done before, women's empowerment, and much more.
