"Deisy has a strong and beautiful intuitive nature. She leads with wisdom, love, and empathy, listens with heart, and shares her knowledge without reservations. There is something magical about Deisy and I am fortunate that our paths crossed."
-Â Workshop Attendee
"Working with Rosa through the D.A.R.E. T.O. Program and Amplify Your Voice Cohort Program, has been one of the most transformative experiences of my life. When I started, I struggled with self-doubt, fear of uncertainty, and lacked the confidence to take bold steps in my personal and professional life.
Rosa is truly a gifted coachâcompassionate, wise, and empowering. She created a safe, empowering space where I felt seen and supported. I will forever be grateful for meeting her and for this experience and would 100% recommend it to any woman ready to grow and lead with confidence."
