Let's collaborate to bring your voice to the forefront of the podcasting world.
I'm a writer, podcaster, podcast launch coach, and speaker. Hosting the rapidly growing podcast, "The American Dream In The Eyes of Immigrants," is not just a passion; it's a mission. Through heartfelt conversations, I speak with immigrants, highlighting their journeys and holding them with compassion.
Hi, I'm Heidy De La Cruz 👋
I'm a writer, podcaster, podcast-launch coach, speaker, and storyteller, passionate about amplifying voices that deserve to be heard.
For more than 20 years, writing has been part of my life. What started as a hobby slowly became a calling. I've always believed stories have power, especially the stories of people who are often overlooked or underrepresented.
Today, that belief fuels everything I create.
Why I Started My Podcast
I'm the host of the award-winning podcast The American Dream in the Eyes of Immigrants, where I share the powerful journeys of immigrants who came to the United States in search of opportunity, safety, and a better future.
Through these conversations, I explore what the American Dream truly means — not through headlines or politics, but through real human experiences.
The podcast has grown far beyond what I imagined. It's now listened to in over 100 countries and ranked in the top 5% globally, ranking number 1 constantly for immigration on GoodPods, reaching the Top 100 monthly and Top 10 weekly charts multiple times.
But the numbers are only part of the story. What matters most to me is creating a space where immigrants can share their journeys openly — the struggles, the sacrifices, the culture shock, the wins, and the dreams that brought them here.
Because every immigrant story deserves to be told. And as the daughter of Dominican immigrants, I bring a unique perspective to how I handle these stories and podcasting.
My Work as a Podcast Launch Strategist
Alongside storytelling, I also help Latinas become podcasters with confidence and clarity, without the overwhelm.
Podcasting changed my life. It gave me a platform, a global audience, and opportunities I never expected.
Now I teach others how to do the same through my V.O.I.C.E. Method Podcast Launch Framework, where I walk through the entire process — from finding your "why" to choosing equipment, recording your first episode, creating systems, and marketing your show.
I believe podcasting doesn't have to be overwhelming and shouldn't be. With the right strategy and systems, it is one of the most powerful tools for building your brand, growing your audience, and creating meaningful connections.
My Mission
My mission is simple:
Whether I'm writing, interviewing immigrants, or teaching someone how to launch their podcast, everything I do centers around one idea: Stories connect us.
When I'm Not Podcasting
When I'm not recording episodes or writing blog posts about podcasting and storytelling, you'll usually find me:
My long-term goal is to travel and record immigrant stories in person around the country, continuing to document the many versions of the American Dream.
Let's Connect
If you're an immigrant with a story to share, an entrepreneur who wants to start a podcast, or someone who simply believes in the power of storytelling, I'd love to connect.
Because the stories we share today can inspire the people who come after us tomorrow.
With Love, Heidy
