Speaking and Partnerships
I’m an engaging, charismatic speaker (their words, not mine) available across the US, UK and Europe for corporate and group speaking engagements, brand partnerships, television and podcasts.
A Few Of My Favorite Subjects
Make this your What If Year
I share practical advice and an inspirational story - the foundation of my memoir, My What If Year - on how to take chances and follow your at every age.
Latinx Leadership
As a former CEO and forever Type-A leader, I speak about authentic Latina leadership: being your own type of leader, what it means to be a leader and a mom, and how your culture can be your strength.
Philanthropy
My novel, Unrestricted Giving has a lot to say about philanthropy (backed up by over 20 years experience). I love challenging conversations about the difference between meaning well and doing good.
How to Pitch Yourself
So many people, particularly women, sell themselves short. I offer motivation and tips that listeners can action immediately about how to pitch your writing, your work and yourself.
