Linda Garcia, Texas House Representative, author of Wealth Warrior: 8 Steps for Communities of Color to Conquer the Stock Market, and founder of In Luz We Trust, is dedicated to empowering BIPOC and Latinx communities through financial literacy. Her podcast, Investies, tackles real-money topics, demystifies investing, and explores crucial areas like the stock market, money management, and the impact of interest rates on personal finances. Linda’s work advocates for financial independence, championing equity and representation for all, especially immigrants and marginalized communities. As a financial feminist, she encourages listeners—regardless of political affiliation, be it Republican or Democrat—to take control of their financial futures. Through her podcast and advocacy, Linda tackles the intersection of financial education, the economy, and geopolitics, helping diverse communities build wealth and secure their place in today’s financial landscape.
We're featuring an episode from our archives: Linda's appearance at SXSW 2025, joined by Denise Hernandez and hosted by Bessy Martinez and House of Chingonas at Mira Mira in Austin. We talked about creating change, self care, community advocacy, our personal journeys, and so much more.
Bessy is the founder of the Latina Foundation and host of The EveryDay Jefa podcast. Denise is the presiding county court judge in Travis County, Texas, and an activist advocating for youth adversely impacted by the justice system.
