Eva Longoria Focuses on Empowering Women Through Entrepreneurship

Los Angeles — Eva Longoria says her journey today goes far beyond acting, with a strong focus on entrepreneurship—particularly supporting women and Latina communities through her foundation.

Speaking about her evolving priorities, Longoria shared that much of her life’s work now revolves around building opportunities for women. While she continues to shine in Hollywood, her attention has increasingly shifted toward creating impact off-screen.

At the same time, she remains deeply committed to setting an example for her young son, Santi. Longoria revealed that balancing work and motherhood often leads to questions from him about her long days. She explained to him that she’s “pursuing her dream,” a message he now understands and even echoes back to her.

Beyond entrepreneurship, Longoria is also exploring her passion for food and travel. She is set to headline Searching for France, the latest installment in her culinary travel series with CNN. A self-proclaimed Francophile who speaks French, she expressed excitement about exploring France through its cuisine—adding to her previous food journeys across Mexico and Spain.

Longoria also credited the strong women in her family for shaping her ambitions. Growing up surrounded by independent and successful women—including her aunts, sisters, and cousins—instilled in her the confidence to succeed, regardless of the career path she chose.

She emphasized that entrepreneurship is both challenging and rewarding, noting that many entrepreneurs face moments of doubt and pressure. Through her work, she hopes to support and uplift women who aspire to build something of their own.

With her continued efforts, Longoria is carving out a legacy that blends entertainment, entrepreneurship, and empowerment—aimed at inspiring the next generation of women leaders.
