Prepare to be inspired by a powerful evening that celebrates amistad, coraje, and the unstoppable spirit of Latina leadership.

Dos Marías: A Conversation on Friendship, Activism, and Leadership Lessons for Future Latina Leaders brings together two extraordinary mujeres — Maria Antonietta Berriozábal and Maria del Rosario Castro (Rosie) — for an intimate and moving conversation about friendship, activism, and the journeys that have paved the way for so many of us.

Their stories remind us that leadership is rooted in community, courage, and corazón. This is more than an event — it’s a moment to honor our past, celebrate our present, and inspire the next generation of Latina leaders.
