Isabel Gonzalez Whitaker: Resilience in Advocacy

The Leaders’ Table

Resilience is a major tool in journalist and activist Isabel Gonzalez Whitaker’s toolbox. Being first-generation Cuban-American, and watching her immigrant mother’s journey, ignited a spark that followed the path of the transformative potential of marginalized communities. Emphasizing the significance of finding one's "impact lane," as the AVP at Moms Clean Air Force and Director of EcoMadres, fighting for clean air on behalf of children and community, she encourages advocacy for meaningful causes and highlights the importance of patience and gratitude in achieving success.
