Walk with us
Transformation from the Roots
Ollin Ameyalli exists because most frameworks built for women's education still measure their worth by what they produce. We want a different starting point: one rooted in a feminine perspective, where self-realization and agency come first. Our programs support women in achieving financial independence and education.
About Us
OUR MISSION
We create spaces where women can learn, grow, and take real steps toward personal and financial independence.
We work with women from minority and immigrant backgrounds, offering education, business resources, well-being programs, and the kind of guidance that comes from people who have walked similar roads.
OUR VISION
A world where women move forward without the barriers that have historically been placed in their way. Where knowledge, connection, and opportunity are not privileges but starting points.
Where women shape their own paths and, in doing so, change the communities around them.
Education and Entrepreneurship for Women in Kansas City
At Ollin Ameyalli
We believe every woman deserves access to the essential tools that transform lives:
Education.
More than just learning, but the kind of women's education that opens opportunities to grow.
Leadership.
Women already lead in their families and communities. Our mission with Ollin Ameyalli is to recognize this leadership and provide the space for it to flourish.
Compassion.
We hold space for women as they actually are, supporting their journey towards personal growth and financial independence.
Who We Are
Our Founder
Orlanda A. Herrera
For nearly two decades, I've worked with women, creators, entrepreneurs, and immigrants who carry more than they're given language for. What I've learned, again and again, is that women already know the answers; what they need are the conditions to recognize and pursue them.
I am the creator of two original methodologies, developed across many years of practice with women in multiple countries: Yoliztli, the foundation of Ollin Ameyalli's educational programs, and Pewali, the framework behind the creative work at Inner Spark Experiences.
In 2022, I expanded this work into the Kansas City metro area, where I now lead programs serving Latina, immigrant, and diverse women. I hold a degree in Sociology, which gave structure to patterns I had been observing in practice for over a decade.
Ollin Ameyalli grew out of those years of work. It exists because the women I've walked alongside taught me that education, creativity, and economic independence aren't separate. They are a trenza, woven together, each one holding the others in place. Our programs, including GED Trailblazers, are built around that truth.
