The Empowerment of Being Nowful with Angélica Fuentes
Angelica Fuentes on Women’s Economic Empowerment, Resilience, and Building Nowful In this @SilverDisobedience Perception Dynamics episode, Dian Griesel interviews business leader, investor, philanthropist, and women’s economic empowerment advocate Angelica Fuentes, who shares how she grew up in a traditional Mexican family, began working at age 11, learned to ask for what she deserved, and rose through hands-on roles to become CEO of her family’s energy group at 29. Ms. Fuentes discusses being the only woman in many leadership rooms, leading major industry and APEC roles, and the importance of cooperating rather than competing, proving capability despite gender obstacles, and using both feminine (creative) and masculine (drive) energy. She emphasizes learning from failure, choosing attitude over victimhood, and empowering women through opportunity and education, including experiences with girls in Guatemala and women in Latin America. Ms. Fuentes also introduces her wellness company Nowful, featuring an app, affirmation cards, and products designed to support rest, presence, and resilience.
