After years of working in the entertainment industry, Ritzy Periwinkle made the decision to dive into
the entrepreneurial world and launch her own venture. As a proud supporter of culture, justice, and
diversity, she is dedicated to ensuring that marginalized communities are respected and supported
in an increasingly tech-centric world. This dedication is clearly shown as a partner at Hola
Metaverso, an organization that provides education, networks, and resources for marginalized
people to thrive in web3, while also providing a stable platform for community-minded leaders and
builders to be seen and heard. She is also a member of the official Delegation for the 3rd Annual
Congressional Briefing of Women of Color in Blockchain in Washington DC.
Through her podcast, Word To Your Mama, Ritzy highlights a diverse range of perspectives on
important topics such as non-linear career paths, destigmatizing mental health in marginalized
communities, and the challenges faced by women in male-dominated fields. With guests hailing
from a variety of backgrounds and fields – including entertainment, art, and web3, among others – her
show is a must-listen for anyone interested in hearing fresh insights from underrepresented voices.
