About the Event
It’s About Time. To come together. To see women, empowering women. For women to be in control of their mental, physical, and financial health. It’s about the time in 1920 that women were granted the right to vote, and now, almost 100 years later, we have our first woman running for President. It’s about time we don’t let gender divide us and use our diversity as our strength.
It’s about time to change the conversation.
On October 28, 2016 we held a SOLD OUT show at The Byrd Theatre with 11 speakers, over 800 attendees, and one dope emcee, Kelli Lemon!
