Latina Queen: Recognizing the Queen in you and setting her free:
Have you noticed that women will at times describe themselves as princesses, but never as Queens? A princess is usually a girl or a woman who is still dependent on others for her livelihood. She usually lives in a lap of luxury, but exerts no real power over her domain. Pampered and doted on, princesses become nothing but mere trophies showcased to display power and superiority. The gold chains lavished upon her end up imprisoning her. A Queen, on the other hand, is a fully developed woman who recognizes her power and takes complete personal responsibility for her life. A Queen has the capability to carry out absolute rule over her realm. The time has come for Latinas to begin identifying themselves as “Queens” and begin living their lives as they choose.This seminar is designed to empower Latinas to take personal responsibility for their happiness and self-esteem.
