Legacy Leader: Color Your Dreams With Elaine Lou

“For me, the question is: What am I leaving behind? What am I leaving behind for generations after me? And what am I doing to honor all the generations before me that sacrificed so much so I could have this current life of choice?” —Elaine Lou Cartas, Legacy Leader and Founder of the Color Your Dreams I am so excited to introduce you to one of my amazing clients and friends who also happens to be an all-star Legacy Leader: Elaine Lou Cartas! Every month in The Legacy Lounge, I will be sitting down with one incredible entrepreneur, business owner, or thought leader, and this month I am so honored that Elaine agreed to be my very first guest on the podcast to talk all about LEGACY! Elaine is a proud first generation immigrant who is leaving a legacy in the name of her family through her coaching business for women of color and their allies. She is the founder of the Color Your Dreams movement with the goal of helping women pivot their businesses and careers to create a sustainable and equitable future. Elaine first came to me a few years ago when she needed to up-level her brand and we’ve been friends ever since. In fact, we have regular zoom catch ups and are constantly voxer-ing back and forth on everything from business questions to life updates. Elaine and I sat down for a very candid and inspiring chat about everything from aligning your values with your business…to budgeting in a way that serves you…to leaving a Legacy and everything in between!
