Renée Rosillo on Leaps of Faith and Risking Everything to Live Authentically
Manage episode 482485352 series 3646600
Some life changes are quiet pivots. Others require a full leap—one where you lose everything but trust that something truer will rise in its place.
Renée Rosillo is a Latina trans woman, technologist, and community builder who’s taken more than one of those leaps. She began her career at the UN, championing global youth initiatives, and went on to cofound multiple start-ups—including Prism, an open banking platform used across Latin America, and FounderFamilia, now the largest network of Latina venture-backed founders. Today, she’s building AO Labs, where they’re developing AI that learns like humans do—with empathy at the core.
But Renée’s most powerful leap wasn’t professional—it was personal.
After selling one of her companies, she finally slowed down. In that quiet, she realized she was living out of alignment with who she truly was. Facing long-buried gender dysphoria, she made the brave decision to leave everything behind: her wife, her child, her home, and her company.
This final episode of Season 1 is a conversation about identity, reinvention, and what it takes to build a beautiful life—and a world—that reflects the truth of who we are. Renée’s story is full of grace, hope, and the kind of clarity that only comes from risking it all.
