    In this new episode of Season 4 of A LA LATINA, Claudia Romo Edelman and Cynthia Kleinbaum Milner welcome the amazing Mónica Gil—a visionary leader redefining what success looks like for Latinas in media and business. As Chief Administrative and Marketing Officer at NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises, Mónica leads the network’s Operations, Marketing, Strategy & Insights, and Communications teams—making her one of the most influential Latina executives in the U.S. media landscape today. Since joining Telemundo in 2017, Mónica has been instrumental in propelling the network to become the #1 Spanish-language broadcaster in the nation. From spearheading groundbreaking digital and brand campaigns—including Telemundo’s record-breaking 2022 FIFA World Cup broadcast—to overseeing nearly 4,000 hours of annual content production at the state-of-the-art Telemundo Center, her impact is undeniable. A trailblazer at the intersection of technology and leadership, Mónica shares her personal and professional journey—from her early days in political strategy in California to transforming media insights at Nielsen, and ultimately breaking glass ceilings at Telemundo.

Watch, listen, and learn from those around you. 2.- Embrace technology now – Staying ahead of the tech curve is critical.

    May 15 2025
    In this uplifting episode of A LA LATINA, hosts Claudia Romo Edelman and Cynthia Kleinbaum Milner welcome the remarkable Citlalli Rojas, Inland Empire General Office Managing Partner at New York Life Insurance Company. They delve into her inspiring journey—from her early days in Chiapas, Mexico, to becoming a nationally celebrated leader in financial services. Citlalli opens up about how she designed a life grounded in purpose, leadership, and authenticity. Her rise—from a college intern at New York Life to Managing Partner—was driven by ambition, heart, and a relentless commitment to empowering others. Today, she leads one of the company’s most successful offices and serves as a national voice shaping strategic direction for the future of financial leadership. She shares how she champions Latina empowerment through legacy-building and financial impact, and how motherhood, community service, and honoring her heritage shape her path. Here are the three takeaways: 1.- Design the life you want: You have the power to shape your future. Plan boldly, live intentionally, and pursue what lights your soul. 2.- Be a Goldfish: Let go of what doesn’t serve you. Don’t dwell on the past—stay focused, resilient, and forward-moving. 3.- Celebrate your roots: If someone shaped who you are—like your mom—tell them. Gratitude has the power to heal, connect, and inspire. From leading with love to lifting others along the way, Citlali’s story is a testament to what’s possible when you stay true to your values and never stop rising. Listen now to be uplifted, energized, and reminded that your authenticity is your superpower.
