Stop Shrinking. Start Leading. A Real Talk with Dr. Syreeta Rios on Tech, Life & Power

Stop Shrinking. Start Leading. A Real Talk with Dr. Syreeta Rios on Tech, Life & Power Description: Techie Chica Kat Lopez-Shelby sits down with Dr. Syreeta Rios—PMP, tech leader, fashion entrepreneur, author of Unleash Your Inner Bad Bitch, and career mom who is redefining what it looks like to lead, create, and thrive without shrinking herself to fit into traditional spaces. Dr. Syreeta’s journey moves through corporate tech at a global scale, personal reinvention, motherhood, and building a bold identity that blends strategy with style. She breaks down how project management became more than a career skill and evolved into a way of living—helping her navigate work, home life, and everything in between with clarity and intention. The conversation explores what it means to be the only woman or person of color in the room and still choose to speak up, even when self-doubt tries to take over. It also unpacks the pressure of perfection, the reality of burnout, and the emotional weight many women carry when balancing ambition with motherhood and identity. There is also a deeper look into the “guilt audit” concept and why so many women struggle with feeling like they have to choose between being present at home and being fully present in their careers. Dr. Syreeta challenges that belief and shares how reframing guilt can open the door to freedom, confidence, and growth. The discussion also brings project management into everyday life in a practical way, showing how structure, organization, and clear thinking can be used far beyond the workplace to manage time, priorities, and personal goals. This conversation is direct, reflective, and rooted in real experience. It speaks to women navigating leadership, identity, creativity, and responsibility while trying to remain fully themselves in every space they enter. Tech + Tequila is going LIVE in Austin! Join us June 25 at Mexican Sugar in ATX for an in-person night of real talk, tech strategy, and yes, tequila. Get your spot @shelbytechsolutions.
