Through fun yet intimate and revealing conversations, Latinas Take The Lead hosted by Emmy award-winning journalist Naibe Reynoso, dives into issues modern Latinas face. There are 29.6 million Latinas in the U.S., but many times they feel left out of the conversation. To help understand how Latinas navigate two worlds whose cultures and values sometimes clash, Naibe Reynoso will interview trailblazers like astronaut Katya Echazarreta, entrepreneurs like Sandra Velasquez founder of Nopalera, award winning authors like Reyna Grande, leaders in the community and more. Latinas  are the 200 percenters': 100 percent American and 100 percent Latina.  It’s about time… LATINAS TAKE THE LEAD!
