Meet Helena Oliviero! From initially believing that making coffee was a repetitive and skillless job to venturing all the way to Colombia for her own coffee plantation, Helena has a crazy story for you. Her love of coffee and of gaining knowledge about the industry has allowed her to overcome the sexism and xenophobia she faces on a daily basis. “People believe more in a man and, preferably, in an older man than a young woman. It’s a mixture of attitude and also prejudices. They are old prejudices, but they are stuck in our society. I think it’s difficult for…women to make their opinion known and be taken into consideration.” If you would like to meet this exceptional woman, Helena Oliviero welcomes all to visit her coffee plantation in Colombia! — Have you ever faced discrimination in your place of work?
