Hispanic Heritage Month Cross-Generational Special Episode

Welcome to another episode of The Generational View podcast, and this is a special one. We’re celebrating National Latinx & Hispanic Heritage month that kicked off on September 15, and in order to honor these cultures, we wanted to hear from a few valuable voices in the Latinx & Hispanic community.  Hispanic Heritage month was created to prompt people to learn about the culture and the individuals themselves, their stories, their voices, their experiences. While our guests today share a common heritage, they each have lived completely different lives, from different cultures, and with different stories.   Our guests today Elizabeth Costa is a Director of Internal Communications and Diversity and Inclusion at a major technology services company with a Bachelor’s of Science with Honors in NonProfit Management. Renata Garcia Prieto Palacios Roji is a Learning and Development at a major food and beverage corporation and Adjunct faculty in Positive Psychology with a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology, both a Master’s and PhD in Industrial and Organizational Psychology. Kenneth Jimenez is a Social studies teacher with a Bachelor’s of Arts in History, minor in Secondary Education.   What they’ll hear in this episode   How one Gen Zer uses this month (and every month) to showcase his Hispanic roots, an opportunity he didn’t always have growing up  The influence that living in the U.S. has on how a native to the culture identifies herself.  The experiences of a 1st-generation Latinx-American, both the pride she carries and the tribulations that came with it.
