Royalty is the theme for the third edition of Women of Elegance, which takes place on Sunday at Jaffa at the Oval at 6 pm.
Founded by young entrepreneur Ghenere Lindsi Heerah, Women of Elegance is a movement to motivate, encourage and reach out to professional women, to communicate and to build a strong bond for the challenges that face them in the corporate world.
Sunday’s event will be hosted by Golda Lee Bruce, Deputy Head of News of CNC3, and will feature attorney Rebekah Ali-Gouveia, president of The Elpis Centre, singer Denyse Plummer and motivational speaker Natalie James Bagot.
“As we move into our next event and beyond, we have to be equipped, we have to be prepared. Most importantly we have to be ready,” said Heerah.
“Today, there are a number of professional women young and old who are making their mark, accomplishing goals and reaching the horizons of their professional dreams and careers but are not fully operating yet at their maximum potential.
Heerah said: “In other words, we seem to be still searching sometimes. Searching for that right career boost, the right relationship, the right spiritual bearing…the right crowd, the list goes on and on, but the Women of Elegance seeks to step in and to offer positive options for all women to make the right choices, more so be motivated to be on top of their game, in a world that seems bent on violating our women folk.”
Heerah said she is currently exploring a concept and project entitled TTP (Teach the People) a social centric project aimed at single parents, the impoverished and the challenged. The focus will be on right parenting, building on values and contributing to building and sustaining the development of society.
“We intend to partner with governmental and NGOs to reach the un-reached. Now, I wish not to be misunderstood here, we will also be targeting various other factions of society to ensure that we reach all levels and all corners of our beloved nation,” she said.
There are also plans to host a Women of Elegance event in Tobago next year, titled Purpose-filled Woman.
