Helping busy Latina moms keep cultural traditions alive while thriving in today’s world
as featured in
From Queens to Long Island, my journey of keeping our cultura alive continues. I’m Elisa Irvolino, your Dominican-American guide to blending our beautiful traditions with busy family life.
Growing up in Astoria, I was surrounded by the sounds, flavors, and vibrant Dominican culture of my community. But when I moved to Long Island, like many first and second-generation Latinas, I felt that cultural disconnect – trying to maintain traditions while juggling work, family, and everyday responsibilities.
Through my platform, I share the ‘sazón y corazón’ – the seasoning and heart – that helps you create a home where our culture naturally flows into daily life, not just something you have to make time for.
Connect. Create. Celebrate.
