In this episode of No Second Class Citizens, we sit down with Michelle Yañez-Olivares, the powerhouse behind Amiga Mia—a thriving community hub connecting and empowering Latin Americans across Australia and New Zealand. Michelle shares her incredible journey as the daughter of Chilean immigrants, navigating cultural identity, and how she turned her passion for community building into a platform with 75,000+ followers.
We dive into the challenges faced by the Latin community, the inspiration behind Amiga Mia, and how Michelle continues to advocate for the visibility and success of migrants in Australia. Her story is one of resilience, empowerment, and creating space for others to shine.
Michelle told us about a key figure in her journey, her grandmother, abuelita Ines, whose strength, wisdom, and support played a pivotal role in shaping who she is today.
Michelle also shared with us about her personal transformation—from feeling embarrassed about her cultural heritage as a teenager to now embracing and proudly celebrating her Latin roots.
Whether you’re an aspiring entrepreneur, a member of the Latin community, or someone passionate about social impact, this episode is full of insights and inspiration!
