🚀 Level Up Week 7: Building Confidence, Leadership, and Growth

This past week, participants in the SHCCNJ Level Up Entrepreneurship Training Series continued their entrepreneurial journey with a series of engaging and educational sessions designed to strengthen both personal and professional development.

@drjairoborja shared practical public speaking techniques to help entrepreneurs communicate their ideas with confidence and impact. Dr. @mercedesphd led a discussion on imposter syndrome, helping participants understand how to navigate self-doubt and embrace their accomplishments. @anyeliscordero.mhrm closed the session by exploring effective delegation, leadership development, and strategies for building a growth mindset.

Hosted at Bergen Community College in Lyndhurst, NJ, Week 7 provided a collaborative environment where entrepreneurs could learn, connect, and continue developing the skills needed to grow their businesses and lead with confidence.

Thank you to our speakers, participants, and Bergen Community College for helping make another successful session possible.

Hispanic Heritage Month gives us an opportunity to celebrate the cultures, traditions, and stories that bring our communities together and inspire audiences around the world.

This week’s trivia question:

Which country inspired the culture, traditions, and setting of Disney’s Encanto?

The answer is Colombia! 🇨🇴

From its breathtaking landscapes and colorful architecture to its music, traditions, and emphasis on family, Encanto celebrates the cultural richness of Colombia.

The story reminds us that heritage lives in the traditions we preserve, the stories we share, and the connections we pass from one generation to the next.

💬 What part of your culture or family traditions would you love to see represented on screen?
