​​​Join us for The Latina Speaking Network: Speaking with Confidence, a dynamic and supportive network designed exclusively for Latina entrepreneurs and professionals. This is your safe space to practice public speaking, refine your pitches, and confidently share your unique stories and business visions. We'll cultivate an environment of encouragement, helping you hone your communication skills, overcome speaking anxieties, and empower your voice to resonate with impact and authenticity. Each event all attendees will get to practice their speaking skills in small groups and then to the larger group. The more you practice, the more comfortable you get with this skill. Come connect with other Latinas and learn and grow with a community that celebrates your journey and helps you shine!

​​​About the Host: Jennifer Solarte is an author, entrepreneur, coach, reiki master, somatic practitioner, and speaker who is passionate about helping women live their best lives after trauma and abuse. She is the Founder of the nonprofit organization, &Rise, whose mission is to empower women to be the ultimate versions of themselves no matter their adversities. Jennifer has over 6 years of experience speaking publicly and sharing her personal story about trauma and abuse. Jennifer has done many keynote speaking engagements, spoken on panels, has been a guest on many podcasts, and has even been on the radio and local news channels in Chicago. Jennifer is a multi-passionate entrepreneur and saw that there were no communities or spaces for Latinas to learn to better their speaking skills, so she saw an opportunity and the Latina Speaking Network was born!
