Women of Color Podcast | And A Podcast for Allies and People of Color
Women of Color Podcast | And A Podcast for Allies and People of color

Ready to purposefully pivot and align your business and career every Thursday?
The Color Your Dreams podcast series will help you take your vision and harness the roots you’re proud of to create the success you’re fully capable of.
Just because you don’t see women of color and allies like you doing it, doesn’t mean that it can’t be done. This movement is about creating more representation for us all!
The Color Your Dreams podcast will be a safe space where I will be sharing my personal story, and we’ll also be sharing stories and conversations with women and allies who are black and brown and all colors.
Tune in to the Color Your Dreams Podcast every Thursday starting February 24 with your coffee, tea, and/or boba to Color Your Dreams to Create Your Legacy!

Hi! I’m Elaine Lou Cartas, MS, your host as well as a Business and Career Coach for women of color and allies to pivot to an aligned and purposeful lifestyle and legacy in their businesses and careers, while collectively creating a sustainable and equitable future.
As a former grassroots organizer and nonprofit fundraiser, and your Color Your Dreams host, I’m here every Thursday to:
- Encourage you in creating a business and career that is sustainable, abundant, and enriching – without cookie-cutter programs or trends.
- Hold space for emotional blocks that can come from your unique experience as a woman of color or community ally
- And empower you to play by your own rules and pave your own path.
What are conversations you should you expect? We’ll talk about life, business, career, family, mental health, pop culture, how we can have a healthy relationship with social media and more.
This podcast is dedicated to my two grandmothers, and brown girls like me who always wanted to color their dreams to create their legacy!
