LEAVE WITH MORE THAN NOTES AND A GLORIFIED PAPER WEIGHT

💡 Your distinct voice, clarified—understand exactly what you (and only you) are here to say

📈 A strategy that converts—turn speaking into visibility, revenue, and real opportunities

🛡️ Legal protection—know your rights before you sign a single contract

🎤 Practice reps in community—get better by doing, in a safe and supportive space

📋 A speaker press kit
—walk away with an actual asset, not just a to-do list

🔥 Unshakeable momentum—the kind that stays with you long after the event wraps up

As a Latina Speaker and Coach with a focus in Confidence, Personal Branding, and Visibility, Steph is on a mission to help underrepresented folks confidently embrace their Speaker Era to grow their brand and amplify their impact.

Speaker Movement initially started as a pop-up collab on instagram designed to amplify the voices of fellow Latinas. It has since grown into a private community with weekly events and resources, a coaching program, official speaker directory, and now—a conference for us all.

Beyond the business, you can find Steph embracing the small moments in life with a big glass of vino tinto, teaching bachata dance lessons, and making new memories with her wife and baby boy.

Sessions that actually move you forward

 Every talk is designed to help you take action—not just feel inspired.

Most speaking opportunities don't come from cold pitches. They come from relationships. This session opens with a short lesson on speaker networking (without the weird small talk), then moves into guided breakout rounds for real conversations. Come ready to meet the people who might become your next collaborator, referral source, or booking.
