Hispanic Heritage Month started with a bang, and we’re still going strong at iRise Careers! Last week, we had the honor of attending the United States Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (USHCC) National Conference in Fort Worth, Texas, and what an experience it was.

We’ve been a Small Business Enterprise member of USHCC since launching iRise Careers last year, and the value of this community has been incredible. From the connections and conversations to the opportunities to learn, collaborate, and contribute, USHCC has played a meaningful role in our journey.

But what means the most to me is being able to use iRise Careers to give back and make an impact within the Hispanic business community.

And we’re just getting started. 🙌🏼

A very special thank you to Jennifer Barillas and the entire USHCC team for championing Hispanic small businesses and for the support you’ve shown iRise Careers. I’m incredibly grateful. ❤️

This Hispanic Heritage Month, I encourage you to take some time to learn more about the contributions and impact of Hispanic-owned businesses across the United States.
I can almost guarantee you’ll be surprised, inspired, and impressed by what you find.

With a heart full of gratitude and a renewed sense of purpose, we’ll keep rising. ☝🏼

¡Seguimos!

Seven countries celebrate their independence days during Hispanic Heritage Month, which runs from September 15 to October 15. Not Cuba...

Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Mexico, Chile

And yet, Hispanic Heritage Month is deeply personal for me.

This photo is of four generations of Cuban and Cuban-American women, set against an AI-generated background of Cuba, because we can't all travel to Cuba together and take a family photo - yet.

My grandmother, Maria, fled Cuba during the Cuban Revolution in the early 1960s with a 2-year-old, no money, no plan and no support.

That 2-year-old was my mother.

A few years later, my aunt Barbara was born. My mother had me 18 years later, at 20.

The struggles my family endured, and continues to endure, are heartbreaking. Some are generational and incredibly difficult to break.

But this month gives me a moment to pause.

To learn.
To reflect.
To honor.
To celebrate.
And to think about what comes next.

Over the next month, I'll share more. But today, I'll share this:

This photo includes me pregnant with my second child, surrounded by the women who came before me.

Hispanic women with the courage to leave, the determination to rise, and the heart to know that when we create opportunities for ourselves, we can create opportunities for others, too.

To me, that's part of what Hispanic Heritage Month is about.

Celebrating our culture.
Honoring our stories.
Recognizing the challenges we have overcome.
And creating more opportunities for the generations coming next.

Think about how you can be an ally and support Hispanic communities this month. Sometimes it starts simply by recognizing the opportunities and privileges we have and thinking about how we can use them to help someone else.

Follow Hispanic-owned businesses.
Support them.
Refer them.
Open a door.
Make an introduction.
Create an opportunity.

Because when one of us rises, we have the opportunity to help someone else rise, too.

Let's rise together.

If you're thinking about your next career move, this is worth paying attention to.

The latest BLS projections for 2025–2035 show some pretty clear trends:

🏥 Healthcare continues to dominate growth
📊 Data + technology skills are in high demand
☀️ Renewable energy is creating new career pathways
🤖 And technology is changing the skills employers need

The fastest-growing job? Nurse Practitioner, projected to grow 41%.
Data Scientist? 34.6%.
Solar Installer? 36.5%.

But here's what stands out to me:

Career planning can't just be about what jobs are available today. It has to be about where opportunity is going.

That means helping students explore careers earlier, helping professionals continuously build new skills, and helping employers think beyond today's talent needs. iRise Careers is here for the change, growth, and empowering you to rise to what's ahead.

The future of work is changing.

Let's make sure we're preparing people to rise with it. ☝🏼

There’s something especially meaningful about showing up in rooms like this one. As a Small Business Enterprise and Plaza Mercado supplier at the United States Hispanic Chamber of Commerce National Conference, I’m proud to represent iRise Careers and be part of a community that brings entrepreneurs, business leaders, and professionals together from across the country.

As a first-generation Latina entrepreneur, this work is personal for me.

I want to build a business that not only creates opportunities for me, but helps Hispanic businesses, individuals, and communities rise.

I don't take my blessings for granted and see them as a responsibility to be in the room, to contribute, to connect, and to keep building - keep rising.

Elevating Careers. Inspiring Futures. Empowering You.

That’s more than our tagline. It’s the work.

Let's Rise ☝🏼

iRise Careers is heading back to the United States Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (USHCC) National Conference! 🙌🏼

We are proud to announce we'll be at the 47th Annual USHCC National Conference, September 14–16, in Fort Worth, Texas🤠 and this time feels different.

Last year, we joined the Plaza Mercado as a vendor for the first time. This year, we're returning as a Platinum Supplier who has more than doubled revenue since our participation last year - a reflection of how much this business, and this community, have grown together.

The financial growth is great but the real win is the businesses, careers, students, and communities impacted. USHCC's theme this year is "Unstoppable: Achieving Success and Powering America's Growth". We're ready to grow and power your growth as a result!

If you'll be in Fort Worth, let's connect & build something unstoppable together. Let's Rise ☝🏼

There’s an interesting shift happening in how people are thinking about career security. For years, the traditional advice was:

Get the degree.
Get the experience.
Climb the ladder.
Stay on the path.

But the path is changing.

As AI reshapes jobs and inflation continues to affect household economics, more workers are asking a different question:

“What skills will continue to create value, even as the work around me changes?”

And I think that is the right question.

We’re seeing growing interest in skilled trades, healthcare certifications, technical training and other forms of specialized education. Not because these careers are somehow “safe” from technology, but because they combine technical expertise with something technology still struggles to fully replicate: human judgment, physical presence, relationships, empathy, problem-solving and trust.

The bigger lesson isn’t that everyone should abandon a four-year degree or become a tradesperson.

It’s that career resilience is becoming less about the title on your résumé and more about the skills you can carry with you.

The World Economic Forum estimates that 39% of workers’ existing skill sets will be transformed or become outdated by 2030, while resilience, flexibility, creative thinking and lifelong learning are expected to increase in importance.

That means upskilling shouldn’t be viewed as something we do when our job is at risk.

It should be part of how we build a career.

Maybe that looks like:
→ Adding a certification to your existing expertise
→ Learning how to use AI in your field instead of competing against it
→ Developing a technical skill alongside your degree
→ Strengthening the human skills technology can't easily replicate
→ Exploring an adjacent career before you're forced to make a change

The goal isn't to predict exactly which jobs will exist five years from now.

The goal is to become the kind of professional who can rise with whatever comes next.

Because the most valuable career strategy may not be choosing the “right” career once.

It may be building the capacity to keep evolving.
Upskill before you need to.
Adapt before you have to.
Keep learning before the market tells you to.

That’s not just career development.
That’s career resilience.

There's been an interesting evolution in how I serve clients through iRise Careers that got me thinking...

When I started the business, I thought a lot about being able to do it all:
Recruiting. HR strategy. Employee relations. Talent development. Career coaching.

And we still do all of those things.

But as the business has grown, something has become increasingly clear:

📌The work hasn't changed. The complexity of the problems we're being asked to solve has.

A business may need help filling a position.
➡️ Generalist: "We need someone in this role."
➡️ Specialist: "We need this person quickly. It's confidential. The talent pool is narrow, and getting it wrong has real business implications."
✔️ Both are recruiting. Very different problems.

The same is true in employee relations.
➡️ Generalist: An organization may need a standard employee investigation. ➡️ Specialist: Or it may be dealing with a sensitive, high-stakes situation where confidentiality, objectivity, risk and the impact on the organization all matter.
✔️ Both are employee relations. Very different problems.

Think of it like healthcare.

You have a primary care physician for everyday needs, and specialists for the things that require deeper expertise.

But even the best specialist will tell you: if the foundation isn't stable, the specialized work doesn't hold. Sometimes the real fix starts with the basics.
HR works the same way.

‼️ If the foundation isn't there, everything gets harder. Policies aren't in place. Processes aren't consistent. Managers aren't equipped. Roles aren't clear.

Sometimes I'm brought in as the specialist. Sometimes I have to help rebuild the foundation before I can be the specialist.
✔️ Both are the job.

Over the past year, I've increasingly found myself being called into the gray areas, the complicated situations, and the problems that don't come with a playbook.

📌 The evolution of iRise hasn't been about doing more. It's been about being trusted with more.

➡️ The confidential search.
➡️ The hard-to-fill role.
➡️ The sensitive investigation.
➡️ The complicated people problem, or as I like to say casually, the "oh sh*t" situation.
➡️ The situation where leadership says, "We need someone who knows how to navigate this."

Either way, the goal is the same: solve the right problem, not just the one sitting on the surface.

We're not going away from HR. We're going deeper into it. 🔍

The more I get called in as a specialist rather than a generalist for the most complex human capital business needs, the more I think about where HR is headed as a profession in the age of AI.

And honestly, I’m here for it.

I’m a big believer in AI and what it can do for HR.
👉🏼 It can help us work smarter and faster.
👉🏼 It can take some of the administrative weight off our teams.
👉🏼 It can help us see patterns in data the human eye may have missed.
👉🏼 It can make recruiting more efficient.

And it can give HR professionals more time to focus on the work that actually requires us.

But I think there’s an important conversation we need to have alongside all of that innovation:
❓ How do we use AI without losing the humanity of HR?

Because the most complex people challenges I’m brought in to solve can’t be solved by technology alone.
☑️ They require understanding the business.
☑️ Reading the room.
☑️ Asking better questions.
☑️ Having the hard conversation.
☑️ Understanding what isn't being said.
☑️ Knowing when the data tells you one thing, but the human experience is telling you something more nuanced.

‼️ And I actually think AI gives us an incredible opportunity to become more human in our work.

If technology can help us spend less time on the transactional, repetitive work, shouldn't we use that time to spend more time with our people?
☑️ More coaching.
☑️ More conversations.
☑️ More connection.
☑️ More problem-solving.
☑️ More strategic thinking.

After 20+ years in HR, I’ve seen our profession evolve over and over again.

I don’t think AI is going to eliminate the need for great HR professionals.
I think it’s going to change what makes us great.

The question is whether we’re willing to evolve with it.

My takeaway:
📌 Embrace the technology. Keep the humanity.

That, to me, is where the real opportunity is. ❤️
