This week, Erika is joined by two alumni of her coaching program. Xiomara and Jenn discuss their experiences with the program and how it helped them on their paths. 

Learn more about our guests.

Jenn Jamali is a first-generation Colombian/Iranian based in Texas. She works in tech and has a passion for personal finance and real estate. Two years ago, she made a huge mindset shift that changed her financial journey and is now on a mission to help POC take control of their finances. She joined Erika’s group program in Fall 2021 and what made her join was when Erika asked, “Do you see yourself in the same spot in a year from now?” and she is happy to report that HELL FREAKING NO she is not in that same place.

Xiomara Malpica is a Social Media Marketer at Microsoft and a Money and Mindset Coach who helps women of color create the lifestyle they want through financial literacy, investing, and mindset. Like many of us, Xiomara grew up believing she had to sacrifice everything now in order to enjoy later, but now knows that you can do both. At age 23, she has been able to create a six-figure investment portfolio and treat herself and her parents to beautiful experiences. Being the only child of immigrant parents, there have been lots of things she has had to learn and unlearn both in the way she looks at money and how to navigate the world with her background and experiences. Xiomara is also the host of Dinero Talks, a monthly workshop to talk about all things dinero and grow our financial literacy together.
