## Resource

In this episode of Latina Mic Drop , Miriam Simon unpacks the painful reality of workplace microaggressions, bias, and what happens when a Latina leader is suddenly treated as a problem instead of a professional. She shares a raw personal story about being perceived as “aggressive,” overlooked for promotion, and forced to navigate leadership dynamics shaped by power, race, culture, and bias. This conversation explores Latina leadership, workplace discrimination, corporate politics, professional visibility, promotion barriers, and how to protect your voice, know your rights, and keep leading with truth in environments that were not built for you.  Your story belongs in The Chingona Playbook If this episode and blog at https://thechingonatimes.com hit a nerve, there is a reason. Too many powerful women have stories like this sitting in their chest, still unnamed, still unclaimed, still waiting to be written. That is why I am inviting bold, real, cycle-breaking voices to be part of The Chingona Playbook Secrets to Dance to Your Own Drum This is not for performance. This is not for polished perfection. This is for truth. This is for the women who have lived through adversity, challenged the rules, gone against the grain, and learned how to dance to their own rhythm anyway. If you have a story about what it took to hold your dignity, trust your voice, or lead without permission, I want you to consider writing it. Because your story is not just personal. It is legacy. It is medicine. It is proof. It is the kind of truth someone else may need in order to stop shrinking. The Chingona Playbook is for the women who know what it means to be overlooked, underestimated, or othered and still choose to rise. If that is you, this is your invitation. Come write with us. Come tell…
