.thebloomi founder rebeccaalvarezs on how history-making success doesn’t come easy — even after you already have it. A conversation with danya_issawi
in April 2022, Alvarez fell short on fundraising. She realized she needed to pivot to stay on track and launch smoothly. She spoke to us about this setback and how her community helps keep her vision alive.I was always drawn to the human body. I thought I was going to go to medical school and do OB/GYN, maybe sexual medicine. But the one thing I did not like is you do not get a lot of sex education in medical school. It’s ridiculous.
It’s hard to be the first. I’m exhausted from being the first. Being the first means you’re going to encounter a lot of barriers. Less than one percent of funding is going to Latina founders, and I knew it would be hard, but once I actually fundraised, I realized it was ridiculous. Sometimes I feel like I have to not let my jaw drop from the things that people say to me.
