The Healing Quest of Luz Warrior with Linda Garcia

Listeners, this week we have a conversation with the one and only Linda Garcia, AKA Luz Warrior!

Linda, a California native, born to immigrant parents, double majored in Marketing and International Business. During college she was on air talent for Telemundo and Univision and began to write, produce and direct local TV commercials. Fascinated with storytelling she pursued a career in film and formed part of the startup team that launched the first major Latino Hollywood movie studio, Lionsgate’s, Pantelion Films. In 2012, Linda accepted a position at Netflix in Content Operations where she managed one of the company’s largest accounts. She was the driving force behind Spanish subs and dubs for Netflix U.S. originals and the launch of telenovelas. She most recently launched AT&T’s, Fullscreen and Lionsgate’s, Pantaya streaming service. As of September she closed the door on Hollywood to focus on her podcast, Let There Be Luz, full time. Linda or Luz Warrior as most of her listeners call her, has been strongly embraced by her community developing her avid listener. Last year she began her journey as a motivational speaker, She held a Red Tent at We All Grow Latina, spoke at LA Times Women’s Empowerment, meditation and journey insights at The Nielsen Company and was chosen to be one of We All Grow’s 2019 Storytellers.

Ah listeners, this conversation with Luz was so amazing. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Some notes about the episode:

We cover a lot about Linda's life, from moving to a whole new state at the early age of 12, to her teen pregnancy, bleeding, and her life growing up .
Trigger warning, Linda does mention her sexual assault during this episode, we don’t go into details. I do want to be conscious of anyone that might be sensitive about this topic.
And Linda just returned from her amazing retreat: Mujer Llena. It was amazing, so opening and so healing for all the womxn that attended. Now Linda is focusing on an upcoming event on September 13, 2019 so stay tuned for more details.
