Latinas Represent LISTA Workshops
In Spanish, “lista” has many meanings, but the one we like the most means bright, smart, or prepared woman.
Throughout this virtual series, experts will offer deep-dive learning sessions around tools, strategies, and best practices around leadership and civic engagement. We’ll cover topics like media training, cybersecurity, field organizing, and overcoming burnout. Our workshops are created to support Latina, and women and femme allies of color who are looking to level up their leadership skills.

Guest Speakers: Stefanie Tovar, CEO and Founder of Yena and Healing Arts with Stefanie Tovar LLC
As leaders of color, we often internalize that we are never meant to burn out. Meanwhile, we take on leadership in many forms: in families, boardrooms, and community spaces. This workshop will help us identify our signs of burnout and find ways to tend to ourselves: before burnout occurs, and what to do if we are already there. You will need something to write with and on and a space to tune in without distractions.
