Declares: Wellness is wealth. Rest is resistance.
Equips women to own their voice, their body, and their care—inside and out.
This session dares to go where most don’t—deep into the realities of womanhood, aging, health, and leadership. It’s about shifting from silent suffering to bold self-ownership and unapologetic wellness.

“You’re not here just to build a business.
You’re here to build a legacy.”
— Scharrell Jackson, Founder, Leadership in Heels
