Bold conversations on the root causes of economic inequality, and what it takes to build a more inclusive future for aspiring entrepreneurs
Rolando Bonilla, Chief Strategy Officer at Voler Strategic Advisors, a leading Silicon Valley communications firm, has launched a podcast series, Bridging the Divide. Now available on streaming platforms, including YouTube, Spotify, Amazon Music, and Apple Podcasts, Bridging the Divide is more than a conversation. It's Bonilla's personal mission to tackle economic inequality and pave the way for the next generation of entrepreneurs.
“To create and release this podcast means giving back what I've learned to those still finding their way,” says Bonilla. “This podcast is about sparking the kinds of conversations that lead to real, actionable change. It's not just content, it's a commitment to those determined to build their own path to prosperity, despite any obstacles in front of them.”
Each episode explores critical themes for business growth and wealth-building, from reframing failure, brand development, and the value of mentorship. Bonilla breaks down what truly drives long-term success, exposing industry myths and “get-rich fast gimmicks”. With today's economic state presenting both new challenges and opportunities, he continues to record episodes aimed at helping others break through cycles that hold them back from achieving success and financial freedom.
The podcast seriesis rooted in Bonilla's lived experience, and he brings years of firsthand insights to the mic. He knows from his entrepreneurial journey what it means to navigate barriers built by systemic inequities. His career, spanning public service, community advocacy, and strategic communications, has been guided by a singular motivation: to ensure the importance of equitable access for all within the world of business, which is a path to building wealth and prosperity.
Bonilla envisions Bridging the Divide as a trusted resource for anyone ready to break free from unproductive patterns and actively pursue growth in both business and personal life. “I didn't wait for a seat at the table, I built my own,” he says. “And I want others to feel empowered to do the same.” Bridging the Divide is for anyone ready to challenge norms, inspire action, and turn obstacles into opportunities.
