¡Saludos, María Eugenia! Creo que es perfectamente bien "will reflect upon" (lleva el sentido de consider, discuss, ponder out loud).

That is, if you don't want to use a literal translation, as Thomas suggests, and with which I concur.

"...talk about..."

This is my suggestion. This might not be the exact word that the SLT uses. There are a lot of cultural issues within...
To "talk about something" is what the speaker is going to do. "Reflexionará" is a way to say it. The fact is that the speaker has already "meditated" or "thought out" what he or she is going to say or "talk about."
"Share his/her thoughts" would be a close to literal translation.
Example sentence:

"Instead of trying to predict what will happen in 2007, I decided to share my thoughts on what I feel are the main philosophies that will drive the work our team will be doing this year. " http://blogs.oracle.com/talkingidentity/2007/02/01
