S.H.E. Talks International Women's Day Program -Annual Event
The Idea💡started in early 2023
For a while, Markella wondered why a bigger deal wasn't made about International Women's Day. At least on a local level. She had this idea that local women had incredible stories that needed to be shared, and also- why are we only listening to big names talk about Female Empowerment when there are so many amazing women right here in Hampton Roads? So she started planning and some of the pieces fell into place, and some had to be a bit coaxed. But before long, the Buzz caught on, and even Markella had people sending her the link to her own event (not knowing it was hers). The idea was to have an All Female Group of about 12 women speak for about 5 minutes each and give a little "mini TED Talk" about something they have overcome, a tough time in their life, or something inspirational.
