About the Book

Only 15% of Hispanics in California have a bachelor''s degree. This is a fact that author Janet Escobar knows all too well. A first-generation American with no mentors to guide her through her pursuit of higher education, Escobar sheds light on what it''s like to navigate the world as an ambitious Latina. The Latina Trailblazer explores the intersection of the first-generation experience, growth mindset, and overcoming imposter syndrome. Escobar answers questions such as:

• How can we overcome fear, imposter syndrome, and use our adversity to build confidence?
• How can we be proud of our cultures in spaces that don''t celebrate it?
• What is the biggest gap between immigrant parents and first-generation Americans?

Learn how to harness your adversity, embrace your roots, and unlock your potential to live a fulfilled life while still honoring your ancestry. The Latina Trailblazer will help you discover how to achieve your dreams, gain confidence, and feel less alone in your pursuit towards self-fulfillment.
