What happens when you stop trying to fit into spaces that were never built for all of you?

In this episode of Latina Mic Drop, Miriam Simon sits down with Carmen Noonan, Chingona Playbook contributing author, holistic nurse, speaker, founder of Cultivated Consciousness, and host of Chingona y Chisme.

Carmen shares what it meant to grow up being told she was too loud, too much, and too different, and how those messages followed her into relationships, healthcare, and leadership. After years of shrinking, code-switching, and trying to earn a seat at the table, being labeled a “disruptor” became the turning point.

Instead of shrinking again, Carmen chose herself.

They talk about authenticity, assimilation, proving your worth, creating your own table, trusting your gut, and why being a disruptor may actually be part of your power.

Mic Drop: “I don’t shrink. And I don’t sugarcoat.”
