Last Friday we celebrated an incredible milestone and an even more incredible woman!! Felicidades to Cassandra on graduating from the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine! 🎓🐾💙💛

Did you know that veterinarians make up only about 0.05% of the U.S. population? And earning a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree is one of the most rigorous and competitive academic journeys out there. Fewer than 5% of applicants are accepted into many top veterinary programs, making this achievement truly extraordinary. This moment represents years of sacrifice, resilience, discipline, and heart. Long nights, endless studying, hands-on training, and an unwavering commitment to caring for animals and serving communities.

Cassandra, your dedication and passion have led you to this moment, and we are so proud of all that you have accomplished. The future is brighter because of compassionate leaders like you stepping into this field.

The world needs more healers, advocates, and changemakers like you. 🩺✨ Congratulations, Dr. Cassandra! Your journey is inspiring, and this is only the beginning. 💫

Nobody is going to hand you a permission slip. 💛 Not to take up space. Not to use your voice. Not to lead your community. And honestly? You never needed one. Latino communities have ALWAYS had the vision, the grit, and the heart to create real change. We just needed spaces that reminded us of that. That's why The Time Is YA Network exists. That's why 8 Poderosas exists. That's why we show up every single week. So save this for the day you start to forget it. 🌸 And tag someone who needs to hear this today. 👇🏽💛 ———

Nadie te va a dar un permiso. Para ocupar espacio. Para usar tu voz. Para liderar tu comunidad. Y la verdad? Nunca lo necesitaste. Las comunidades latinas SIEMPRE han tenido la visión, la fuerza y el corazón para crear cambio real. Solo necesitábamos espacios que nos lo recordaran. Para eso existe The Time Is YA Network. Para eso existe 8 Poderosas. Guarda esto para el día que lo olvides. Y etiqueta a alguien que lo necesite hoy. 👇🏽💛

Real talk — our school system missed a few things. 😂💛 Like how to actually show up for your community. How to use YOUR story as power. How to rest without guilt. How to build real community (not just a network). We're filling those gaps. That's The Time Is YA Network. Swipe to see what they SHOULD have taught us 👉 Which one hits hardest? Drop it in the comments 👇🏽

Siendo honestos — la escuela se saltó algunas cosas importantes. Como aparecer por tu comunidad. Como usar TU historia como poder. Como descansar sin culpa. Nosotros llenamos esos espacios. Eso es The Time Is YA Network. ¿Cuál te llegó más?
Cuéntanos 👇🏽

Don't ever compromise your integrity
for anybody else — because you alone
will have to live with your decisions." 💛

At our Latina Luncheon, we had the
privilege of hearing from women who
have been in the rooms, fought the
battles, and came out standing.

And THIS is the advice they brought
back for us.

In politics. In leadership. In life.
There will always be noise.
People pushing. People pulling.
Telling you who to be
and how to show up.

But at the end of the day?
Stay true to yourself.
Do the research.
Believe in yourself.

Because you got this. 💪🏽🌸

Tag a Latina who needs to hear
this today. 👇🏽

"Nunca comprometas tu integridad
por nadie más — porque solo tú tendrás
que vivir con tus decisiones."

En nuestro Latina Luncheon tuvimos el
privilegio de escuchar a mujeres que
han estado en las salas, han dado
las batallas, y salieron de pie.

Y ESTO es el consejo que nos trajeron.

En la política. En el liderazgo. En la vida.
Siempre habrá ruido.
Gente empujando. Gente jalando.
Diciéndote quién ser.

Pero al final del día?
Mantente fiel a ti misma.
Investiga. Cree en ti misma.

Porque tú puedes. 💪🏽🌸

Etiqueta a una latina que necesita
escuchar esto hoy. 👇🏽

Last night marked the kickoff of our 8 Poderosas Mentorship & Leadership Program!! ✨⚘️

This intergenerational experience brings together high school Latinas and seasoned Latina leaders to grow, learn, and lead together. Over the next six months, they’ll dive into leadership, housing, and transportation building the knowledge and confidence to become strong advocates and ambassadors in their communities.

The journey ahead is rooted in connection, mentorship, and mutual support. Last night was truly inspiring!!! getting to know each poderosa and the passion she brings to this space reminded us what’s possible when we come together with purpose.

Thank you to Mina Loera - Diaz for being part of this team! 💫

Stay tuned as we highlight each poderosa.
Cuando mujeres nos unimos, logramos mucho más. 💜

Read that again. 💛 Nobody is going to hand you a permission slip to take up space, use your voice, or lead your community. You don't need one. The Time Is YA Network was built on that exact belief — that Latino communities have always had what it takes to lead. We just needed the space, the tools, and the community to practice it together. That space? It's here. Those tools? We're building them. That community? It's you. Save this for the day you need to remember it. 🌸

Léelo de nuevo. Nadie te va a dar un permiso para ocupar espacio, usar tu voz o liderar tu comunidad. No lo necesitas. Guarda esto para el día que necesites recordarlo. 🌸
