About Me
Hola,
Edith Suarez Tores
Writer & Tourist
Hola,
I am so grateful you are here. My name is Edith and I am on a mission to transform lives through storytelling focused on identity and culture. For the past decade, I have been on a journey of getting closer to my roots through collecting family stories, researching, and writing. As a result, I have become more aware of my identities and today I continue write and rewrite my story from a place of strength.
Prior to this, when I reflected on moments where I felt shame, anecdotes as early as my childhood years in school always surfaced. I also saw how my education and the connections I made with my heritage thanks to my parents rarely continued when I walked into the classroom. If they did, they made a long-lasting impact that helped me become proud of where I come from.
I have experienced first hand the transformation that reflecting, writing, and rewriting our story has on our lives. This is why I love working with individuals and organizations to create spaces for reflections and conversations that teach us, inspire us, and remind us we are unique, intelligent, and capable of achieving our dreams here on earth.
