Behind every successful leader is a story of resilience, growth, and transformation. For Maggie Rivera-Tuma, that story began in adversity — growing up homeless, navigating systemic barriers, and building a career that led her to executive leadership and keynote stages, including Harvard.
Now, as CEO of Rivera Catalyst Strategies and a nationally recognized thought leader, Maggie brings her lived experience and professional expertise into personalized 1:1 coaching for executives, entrepreneurs, and rising leaders who want to thrive in the face of change.
