This never made it out of my drafts, but I think it’s a good one as we step into the new year. Where yes, time is a social construct, but there’s power in the collective ✨ refresh ✨ that we all seek this time of year.

One of my favorite parts about the fact that we celebrate Dia de Los Mu***os is that it’s an acknowledgment that even when our loved ones are no longer physically here with us, they guide us in all our biggest decisions.

It’s also a reminder to keep honoring and showing up for one another while we are physically together.

Let’s honor ourselves, honor our community, honor nuestra cultura, but also let go of what doesn’t help us honor all parts of ourselves, truly.

Btw, these pics are from the Annual Dia de Los Mu***os Festival in Oakland that I’ve had the pleasure of being a part of for many years now. 🫶🏼

I am so excited to officially present to you ¡Latina, Presente! A monthly virtual public speaking workshop series made with you in mind.

This is my introverted, first gen, Latina speaker’s dream! When I started my journey as a speaker, I was googling the “top speakers to learn from” and while they helped me form some knowledge about the art, they didn’t reflect my lived experiences. I felt like I had to change my way of communicating to fit a mold.

When I say, Public Speaking con Cultura, it’s not only about getting more Latinas on stages, but it’s also about leveraging our cultura, our lived experience, & beautiful cultural forms of communicating; and bringing those on stage with us, proudly. That’s authenticity!

Every workshop is designed to center nuestra cultura & provide you with the skills you need to show up and share your voice.

👀 Check out chatswithyvonne.com for the full schedule & reserve your spot!

It’s coming!! 👀

¡Latina, Presente! is your Public Speaking Workshop Series. It's meant to help you reconnect & love the art of public speaking, AND cultivate a deeper understanding of how to grow your public speaking skills, con cultura.

Every lesson celebrates our lived experiences, traditions, and cultural ties to the art of public speaking, while providing you the information, techniques, and practices you need to authentically take that mic and stage.

Who’s ready for the full workshop series schedule reveal?! 🥹🧡

Creating our vision 🎤✨ (read until the end to learn about the FREE event I’m hosting)

❔I was asked: What would you suggest or what did you do to get that first speaking opportunity?

My answer: My first engagement happened because I was recommended by folks in my network (my high school teachers). I had talked about my topic before & they wanted me to share with other educators.

My advice is to create your public speaking
"resume". Pitch yourself to the conferences/ orgs that you want to speak at & get clear on your topics.

And the biggest thing: networking! Go to the events, talk about your expertise, meet new people. I'd say networking is so often where the magic happens!

🎨ANNOUNCEMENT: To help us launch into our public speaking careers con poder, I’m hosting a virtual Public Speaking Vision boarding party on Dec. 2nd! 🤩

We’ll reflect on our public speaking goals, get creative, create public speaking affirmations, & I’ll host a short public speaking Q&A session.

I often think “Little Yvonne could never imagine the places & the things she’d be doing”, but when I really think about it, that’s a lie. Little Yvonne allowed her imagination to take her to these places, to do exactly what she’s doing now.

In fact, older Yvonne has probably too often crushed Little Yvonne’s dreams by letting the outside noise & fear of the unknown stop her from fully letting imagination turn into dreams come true.

Here’s to a lifetime of trying to get older Yvonne to listen to Little Yvonne more often. ✨
