Latinas are raising the game across sports, science, and beyond. This Hispanic Heritage Month, we’re spotlighting the trailblazers redefining what’s possible. 🎤 Cardi B: Proves she’s more than an artist—she’s a cultural architect, turning every moment from album rollouts to viral stunts (setting a news Guinness world record), life milestones, and record-breaking performances into headline-making events. 🚀 Katya Echazarreta: The first Mexican woman in space, now immortalized as a Barbie role model, showing little girls everywhere that the sky is not the limit. 👧🏽Raquel Reyes: American Girl’s 2026 Girl of the Year, a Latina who DJs, runs a paleta shop, and brings unapologetic, Latina flair to the toy aisle. ⚾ Yedlimar De Jesús: At just 17, she became the first Puerto Rican woman to play on a men’s college baseball team in the U.S., breaking barriers for the next generation. 🏈 Diana Flores: Star quarterback of Mexico’s gold medal flag football team, leading the way as the sport heads to its Olympic debut in 2028. Proof that representation is game-changing. 💖 Original posts from @americangirlbrand, @katvoltage, @dianaflres33, & @19thnews on Instagram

💥 Three powerhouse Latinas. One shared vision: elevating women's voices in sports, while at the same time betting on yourself. Meet the panelists for the “Game Changers: Latina Leaders in Sports” panel at the Latina Leadership Summit at Expedia Group: 🚀 Tish Galindo, Founder and CEO, Made x Us and Women Raise the Game. Over the past 15 years, Tish has built a powerhouse agency focused on building what's next in culture, business, and media. As the founder of madeXus, she’s rewriting the playbook with an AI-driven, culture-first creative agency that’s delivered award-winning work for global heavyweights like AT&T, Coca-Cola, HBO Max, Disney, Lowe’s and Expedia. She’s also the founder of Women Raise the Game, the agency’s sports media platform that debuted at Super Bowl LVIII and has since been backed by the NFL, the AUSL women’s professional softball league, and MLB. 💪🏼 Jennifer Yepez-Blundell, Co-Founder, DRAFTED A few years ago, Jennifer and her co-founder Karina Martinez saw a gap: Latinas have always been in sports —playing, coaching, leading, building—but sports have rarely made space for Latinas. Instead of waiting for change, they created DRAFTED - the first culture-driven media company to ensure Latinas are never invisible in sports again. Together, they are building something that didn’t exist: a platform that elevates, connects, and creates real opportunities for Latinas in sports, from the field to the front office to the fandom. 🏐 Andrea Nucete- Elliott, Co-Founder & CEO, TIY Products Andrea is an elite professional volleyball player originally from Venezuela who spent many years playing professional beach volleyball in Italy. She has since turned entrepreneur as the Co-Founder and CEO of TIY Products, hair ties that are perfect for athletes. Andrea is also a passionate supporter and game-day fashion icon for the Six-Time National Champions The University of Texas at Austin Women's Volleyball team. 🤘🏼 Don't miss out on this incredible conversation! In-person registration is sold out for the Latina Leadership Summit, but you can still join us virtually. Register here: https://lnkd.in/d3cNTHvk

Surfer Girls is now streaming on Sports Prime🌊. This is the kind of storytelling the sports world needs more of. This show follows a crew of surfer girls reclaiming their space in a male-dominated sport. It’s fearless. It’s overdue. And it’s a blueprint for what happens when women lead on both sides of the camera. We’re watching, learning, and raising the game together.

Jacy Sheldon of the Connecticut Sun just became one of only four active WNBA (Women's National Basketball Association) players with a signature sneaker on shelves, and she’s doing it with equity on the table. Created in partnership with Latina-owned HOLO Footwear and launched alongside DRAFTED, the “Bubblegum” JS:01 dropped on dickssportinggoods.com, right before W All-Star Weekend. This is what brand partnership looks like when done right: authentic, athlete-led, and built for long-term impact. WRTG is here for it.

From Olympic gold to ESPN’s broadcast booth, Jessica Mendoza continues to break barriers in sports media. As a former USA Softball star and one of the most visible Latina voices in sports broadcasting, her presence proves what happens when excellence meets representation.
