Greetings Queens!

​

This is a space that is intentional, loving, and supportive. Our summit begins promptly at 8:00 AM with our amazing, continental breakfast and our delicious lunch will be served at noon, and we will end on time at 5:00 PM. What can you expect for the day? 

You can expect 100% sisterly LOVE and support!!

You will have the opportunity to choose from health topics that are disproportionately impacting African American Women. All workshops are presented by African American women professionals. Whether you choose to attend one or attend both days, the ticket is locked in for both!

I see you trying to heal sis, healing looks good on you!
