Two weeks ago, I talked to Alicia Ortega, co-founder of Native Women Lead on Episode 231. She talked about a project her organization led to purchase products from native and women-owned businesses this year as a way to support them through the pandemic.
On this week’s episode, we’re taking a deeper dive into the businesses her organization supports. And we’re looking at why it’s so important to acknowledge women’s economic contributions in the workforce, as business owners, and as consumers.

President-elect Joe Biden’s transition team on Thursday announced New Mexico Rep. Deb Haaland as his nominee for interior secretary, a powerful federal position that oversees natural resources, public lands, and Indian affairs. If confirmed by the Senate, Haaland, from the Pueblo of Laguna, would be the first Native American Cabinet secretary. Haaland was re-elected to her second term representing New Mexico’s 1st Congressional District in November and is currently the vice-chair of the House Committee on Natural Resources. She’s been working to organize rural and tribal communities for years, including in her role as Democratic Party chair of New Mexico.
As the world learns more about Congresswoman Deb Haaland who is President-elect Biden’s pick for Department of the Interior, I went into the archives of this show to replay my interview with Deb in 2016, when she was the first Native American state party chair as chair of the Democratic Party of New Mexico.
In a statement, the Biden-Harris transition team called Haaland a “barrier-breaking public servant who has spent her career fighting for families, including in Tribal Nations, rural communities, and communities of color,” who will be “ready on day one to protect our environment and fight for a clean energy future.”
In this interview from 2016, Cong. Haaland talks about:
- The most powerful moment she experienced with Michelle Obama
- How she felt the night she nominated Hilary Clinton at the democratic convention in 2016
- Her commitment to advocating for women, need for strong families and equal pay
- The importance of diversity in politics and women’s participation in
- politics
- The three key things Congresswomen Haaland does to stay healthy and
- be successful

Hello Well Women,
What do Flat Cedar Medicine bags, art prints, Vegan Hemp Oatmeal Vanilla Bar Soap, Cedar and Lavender Lotion, Chamomile Lip Balm, and Sage & Cedar Bundles have in common? They were all made by native and women-owned entrepreneurs during this year’s pandemic and supported through a project that packaged these items together and mailed them to people all over the world. The project was created by Native Women Lead, an organization dedicated to growing, supporting, and advocating for Native Women in positions of leadership through business and entrepreneurship with a goal to revolutionize systems and inspire innovation by investing in Native Women in business. The organization also gave out 35 loans totaling $150,000 under the Matriarch Response Loan Fund in partnership with Nusenda Credit Union and New Mexico Community Capital. Here to talk about this and all of the work she’s been doing to support native women leaders is Alicia Ortega from the Pueblos of Pojoaque and Santa Clara. She is a Co-Founder and Co-Director of Native Women Lead, an organization dedicated to growing, supporting and advocating for Native Women in positions of leadership through business and entrepreneurship with a goal to revolutionize systems and inspire innovation by investing in Native Women in business.
We discuss:
– Why we need to keep creating space for woman and women of color.
– How we can empower women to take up their space in business or politics.
– and finally, the importance of support small, women-owned businesses during the pandemic.

On the Well Woman Show this week, I am celebrating ten years of being in business for myself! In those ten years, I worked with many large academic and government institutions as well as non-profits and entrepreneurs. And what I realized is that when women are not supported to thrive and when their leadership is undermined, whole projects and communities are impacted.
Today, I want to tell you my story about starting my own business, and also I want to share a practice that I have only used with one-on-one clients with you in honor of my ten year anniversary!
Now is a great time to invest in your dreams and create what you desire in your life. You can learn more and register at this link: https://wellwomanlife.com/academy
