Imagine engaging in deep conversation with Latina icons across history as you explore your own challenges, hopes, and purpose through their words, art, and lives. Guided by Dr. Patricia Arredondo, a pioneering scholar and practitioner in women’s leadership, this reflective workshop invites you to draw wisdom from their legacies and apply it to your personal and professional journey.
You are invited to experience a culturally empowering four-day Women’s Retreat with the legendary Patricia Arredondo, EdD in historic Mexico City, Mexico. Immerse yourself in the city´s art, culture, and flavors while exploring how women have thrived and transcended the barriers they faced within organizations and society. Access ways to recognize your own power and empower other women. Gain a mindset for leadership and ideas on how to become changemakers within organizations, academic settings or business communities. Description: The purpose of this workshop is to examine historic literature and contemporary research about the strengths and contributions of Latinas to families, communities, and to women’s psychological empowerment. Four historic and ground-breaking figures will be highlighted--Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, Antonieta Rivas Mercado, Julia de Burgos and Frida Kahlo. Themes of their hidden dimensions of personal worth and leadership that have informed Latina Mujerista (feminist) perspectives and values will be explored. Contemporary Mexican -based research about feminist movements, and women’s expressions of empowerment in different contexts and roles will also be discussed. Participants will prepare a roadmap that draws upon the historic and contemporary themes to inform their personal and professional careers as well as their work with Latinas. This is a residential program to be held in Mexico City over a four-day period and is limited to 16 attendees. This practical retreat will include workshops focused on:
