Charo
Toledo
Recently, I spoke at a panel at the KNOW Women Summit and polled my audience. These results inspired me to write my mission, vision and core values of my company, Charo Entertainment LLC.
HOW DO WOMEN FEEL ABOUT WRITING?
SLOGAN: Our voices. Our power.
MISSION: To teach Latine and women of color to authentically write and showcase their bold stories in a theater monologue, TV or film script.
CORE VALUES: Authenticity, Integrity, Respect, Fun, Creativity, Love, Resilience, Courage.
VISION: To empower women globally to find their voices and tell their authentic stories in their language, in a theater, television or film scripts to be showcased in our own global streaming platform.
THE LATINA SURVIVAL GUIDE
The Latina Survival Guide is Charo Toledo’s debut memoir; an episodic exploration of Puerto Rican girlhood, inherited belief systems, family lore, and the way humor becomes a survival mechanism. Told in binge-worthy moments that move between laughter and reflection, the book invites readers into the ongoing process of self-definition; messy, tender, and fiercely alive.
"With The Latina Survival Guide, Charo Toledo has reinvented the memoir, creating something unique, rich, and distinctly her own... a multitude of incredible tales that are mini movies within themselves, all tied together by a fun and exuberantly innovative conceptual structure."
—Mark Valadez, Producer, Queen of the South
“Vivid, funny, and unforgettable — 1970s Puerto Rico in sequins, cologne, and madness.”
— Jennifer Joyce, TV Writer
“A piercing and insightful portrait that challenges stereotypes and invites empathy.”
— Jasmin Espada, Producer, 333 Pictures · Rebel 6 Films
