Episode 24: Empowerment & Building Your Personal Brand with Ilse Monette of Connect Media Firm

Dale Sabor A Tu Salud by Tadin Herb & Tea Co.

Today, I’m in conversation with Ilse Monette, the owner and founder of Connect Media Firm, a local marketing agency in the Houston area, who teaches bilingual people and business owners how to utilize digital media as a tool and resource to spread purpose, service, and products. Ilse is a creative partner of TADIN — tea started as a familial ritual to destress! In this episode, we’re discussing her path into marketing, the power of being multifaceted as a way to spread an empowering message, and why it’s so important that she can connect with her Hispanic audience.

First, Ilse shares her favorite tea blends and the ritualistic power tea has within a busy day. Then we hear about Ilse’s story from performing arts to journalism to being on camera, including what inspired her to create her own marketing business. Ilse also shares the importance of working with the Hispanic community and how her business specifically caters to her culture and heritage. Plus, we discuss why Ilse chose to partner with TADIN, and the ways empowerment is embedded throughout her entire business.

Be sure to head back to our episode 10 where we mix tea bags, blend flavors, and create the best tea combinations to use for any setting.
