International Women's Day event Celebrating the Feminine

Date and Time

Location

International Women's Day 2018 "The Art of Embodying the Feminine Summit is a gathering for ambitious, driven, incredibly passionate women (like you!) to come together in the community and connect with powerful role models - women who are not afraid to be fierce without sacrificing their feminine. At a time where women are proclaiming ‘Time’s Up’ and ‘MeToo,’ and celebrating the recent images of Wonder Woman and the Dora Milaje in popular culture, this gathering is created with the intention to give back to the amazing women who stand for and lead their communities, yet never have a place where they can truly be themselves, where they can rest and recharge.

Through this gathering, you'll walk away feeling powerful not despite being a woman, but BECAUSE you are a woman. The evening will begin with a panel of incredible speakers on the topics of fierce femininity in career, relationships and motherhood, and end with a powerful collective experience that will leave you feeling empowered. Come connect and discover how to apply the power of the feminine in all areas of your life, and watch your world transform!

                                          For the Women

For the women who bear children

and nurture them with truth

for the women who cook and clean

behind thankless men

for the women who love so hard so true so pure

for the women with faith in God and men

for the women alone with beer and rum

for the women searching for a man at the club, college, church, party

for the women independent of men

for the women searching their souls

for the women who do drugs and freak

for the women who love only women

for the women who play and run and never show

for the women who rise in revolt in hand with men

who say never, never, never again

for the women who suffer abuse and cry for justice

for the women happy and free of maternal madness

for the women who study and write

for the women who sell their love to starving men

for the women who love to make love and be loved by men

for the women of Africa who work so hard

for the women of America who suffer the master

for the women who turn to God in prayer and patience

 Dr. Ayodele Nzinga, Marvin X and Hunia

for the women who are mothers of children and mothers of men

for the women who suffer inflation, recession, abortion, rejection

for the women who understand the rituals of men and women

for the women who share

for the women who are greedy

for the women with power

for the women with nothing

for the women locked down

for the women down town

for the women who break horses

for the women in the fields

for the women who rob banks

for the women who kill

for the women of history

for the women of now

I salute you

A Man.
