How to turn your story, identity, and lived experience into the reason you’re in demand, well-paid, and in a class of your own.

Identity ROI

THE PRIVATE PODCAST THAT SHOWS YOU HOW TO TURN WHO YOU ARE INTO YOUR MOST PROFITABLE ASSET

The world treats your identity like a liability.
Here, we turn it into Profit & Influence.

Now, more than ever, we NEED to put more money and influence into the hands of marginalized voices. We see what happens when white, conservative billionaires run the show and try to tell the world who we are.

We reclaim control of our own narrative by turning our identities into thought leader brands with power & influence. Because our people need our voices and our services.

You get to make your story, your perspective, and your lived experience your greatest money-making assets. 

When you lead with who you are, you create more demand, higher profit, and attract clients who stay...while reclaiming your voice.

And that’s not just strategy—it’s reclamationIdentity ROI will show you how.

Inside this private podcast, you’ll learn:

  • Why traditional marketing strategies keep you hustling for visibility, and what actually creates premium demand.
  • The timeless principles of human buying behavior (80% emotional, 20% logical confirmation) and how to sell through resonance, not addressing 100 objections.
  • How to align your story and skills with an unmet need in the market so you’re not just an option but the only choice.
  • Why thought leadership is the most sustainable and profitable path forward—especially for women of color.

Meet Your Coach

Using the marketing, leadership and identity concepts I now teach my clients, I turned my story and thought leadership into a million-dollar business as a single mom.

Mariela De La Mora

Meet Your Coach

I’m a 20-year Marketer turned leadership and business coach who helps daughters of immigrants and WOC turn who they are into money, PR, and speaking invitations. Prior to coaching, I helped companies create billions through story-driven brand building campaigns.

But as the eldest daughter of Mexican immigrants, the more money I made in Corporate, the more of myself I had to leave at the door.

So from Day One, I built a brand that never required me to perform or silence my values - otherwise it just becomes another pair of golden handcuffs.
