I was so delighted and honored to be apart of the Empowerment Workshop for Young Ladies in Henderson, TX this past Saturday. I was born and raised in Henderson so to go back and speak on a panel to encourage, inspire and motivate young ladies was an honor. This workshop was created and hosted by Chakie Brown Starling (also a native of Henderson) and she felt led and do something positive for the young ladies in the community.

The other panelist consisted of other professional women that have gone on to become successful in there fields: attorneys, educators, medical professionals….ect. We discussed everything from money, credit, dating, education, dealing with peer pressure, how to become an empowered woman and much more!

I believe the girls went away with alot of positive things to think about and how to become better students and a better person. I also believe that EVERY city and town needs to host an Empowered for Young ladies Workshop. For more information about a workshop in your area check out Chakie’s website at www.shepowerevents.com.
