Rosanna María Salcedo
I'm Rosanna-
an artist, equity leader, coach and consultant who transforms personal loss into creative power. A first-generation Latina and lifelong educator, I've turned my experiences of illness, grief, and renewal into a body of work that inspires healing and courageous leadership. Through writing, art, and retreats, I help women integrate the spiritual, emotional, and professional parts of their lives—reclaiming identity, agency, and joy.
I have spent nearly 3 decades walking alongside individuals and institutions as they struggle, grow, and transform.
My journey is shaped not only by my professional path but also by the lived experiences of resilience as a Latina, first-generation college graduate, raising children as a single mother, battling cancer, and grieving the devastating loss of my son.
​
These moments have taught me that equity must be rooted in empathy, and true leadership begins with healing.
​
At the heart of my work is a simple belief: when we reclaim our stories, we reclaim our power.
For Individuals-
Healing and Resilience
Reclaim your identity.
Heal with courage.
Live bravely.
Life can break us open. But what if those breaks are the places where our strength, wisdom, and new identity take root?
​
I guide women who are navigating loss, transitions, and reinvention, to move from survival to courageous living. My work offers both personal support and practical tools for resilience.
