Hey everyone! Excited to be here.
My name is Cristyan Gasca, founder of Andromeda Leverage. I work with Latino entrepreneurs in the U.S. helping them understand how to use credit, business structure, and funding strategy to access capital and grow with more clarity. I joined this community because I really connect with the mission of helping Latino founders turn ideas into real businesses. A lot of entrepreneurs start with vision and work ethic, but get stuck when it comes to capital, credit, banking relationships, or knowing how to prepare financially for the next stage. My focus is helping founders stop guessing and start making better financial decisions, especially when they’re building in the U.S. and trying to create something long-term. Happy to be here, learn from everyone, and contribute wherever I can.

HI Cristyan and welcome! Looking forward to connecting and learning more about the vital work you're doing.
Hi, I'm Lizz
I’m Lizz Huerta, an author and artist based in Chula Vista, California. For over 25 years, I’ve worked in the worlds of art, storytelling, and activism. My debut novel, The Lost Dreamer (2022), was one of the first Latinx fantasy novels published by a major publishing house and became a finalist for the Barnes & Noble Book of the Year award. I teach creative writing, offer creative consulting, and speak publicly about creativity, storytelling, and lived experience. After taking a two-and-a-half-year pause from my professional life to care full-time for my father during his battle with ALS, I’m now returning to my work carrying both grief and a deeper sense of purpose. Looking forward to connecting and collaborating.🇲🇽🇵🇷🌈
Mental Expansion
What part of you is ready to grow beyond what feels familiar—and what would become possible if you trusted that expansion fully?

I'm ready to expand in every way. In 2022 I fulfilled my lifelong dream of becoming a traditionally published author and was LIVING my dream; my book was a best-seller and I was doing speaking gigs all over the country. I loved my life, I was never happier or more fulfilled. Then my father was diagnosed with ALS and I walked away from everything I had worked toward to move in with my parents and care for him full-time until his death a few months ago. I'm trying to get my momentum back but disappearing (whilst aligned with my values) at the top of my game was a shock to my system. I want to recapture my drive, my passion for creation. Re-entering the world of creativity after a few years away is challenging. If I trust my expansion, I know I'm unstoppable; I just need to find my way back. (thanks to @Chris Bustos for opening the vulnerability portal in this post and making it easier for me to be vulnerable too)
