We are Committed

We create spaces where people feel seen, heard, and inspired to reconnect with their purpose. Through coaching, storytelling, and community, we help individuals and organizations create meaningful change.

Authentic Engagement:

We prioritize genuine relationships that honor lived experiences and cultural identities, ensuring that our work reflects the true needs and aspirations of diverse communities.

Empowerment Through Storytelling:

We believe in the transformative power of storytelling to heal, inspire, and drive action, providing individuals and organizations with tools to share their narratives confidently and authentically.

Leadership & Purpose Coaching

Rather than giving advice, I create a space for deep reflection through thoughtful questions, helping you uncover the beliefs, strengths, and patterns that shape your decisions. From that awareness comes expression—the confidence to live, lead, and create a life that reflects your values and your voice.

Learn More About Araceli

Hi, I'm Araceli.

I'm a speaker, author, coach, and founder of Midwest Mujeres.

 

Here's what I love to do:

​

  • Coach women through career transitions, purpose, and personal growth using my Awareness & Expression (AE) Method™.

​

  • Speak on leadership, belonging, storytelling, and economic mobility.

​

  • Build community by creating spaces where people feel seen, connected, and inspired to grow.

​

  • Write and create books, workshops, and conversations that help people reconnect with themselves.

A little bit of Dairy, a Midwest heart, and a lot of Salsa.

I am also the founder of Midwest Mujeres, a unique nonprofit organization that works with all women and femmes to close the wage gap through education and empowerment. I am determined to create spaces for storytelling since I believe it is possible to bring about social change through stories. I often speak on how to achieve this while avoiding common pitfalls such as tokenism, creating silos, and performative diversity.
