The Powerful Women's Weekend: Networking and Empowerment

Are you a powerful woman?

"The Powerful Women embraces womanhood, celebrating us in our entirety by functioning as a supportive community," said Meagan Ward, founder of  The Powerful Women, an entrepreneurship organization for women. "Furthermore, The Powerful Women instills confidence plus inspires personal and professional development."

Get ready for an empowering and exciting weekend ahead at The Powerful Women's Weekend: When Power, Grace and Excellence Collide! on Saturday, June 25th and Sunday, June 26th, 2016.

The conference has been designed with the powerful woman in mind. It embraces womanhood and celebrates womankind entirely by functioning as a supportive community.  Workshop topics include branding empowerment, financial literacy, negotiating your worth and living authentically.  Guests will receive bags filled with promotional products, receive professional head-shots, and enjoy a morning fitness class surrounded by 100+ Powerful Women.

"When The Powerful Women was founded in 2013, it was built on a desire to serve womankind. The world-renowned organization, therefore, aims to cultivate a culture of excellence for women through high standards and accountability," said Ward.

This is the second year that the conference will take place, but the organization has hosted three sold-out luncheons and two workshops.

The topics that will be covered in this Powerful weekend include;

-Cultivating Your Internal Power

-Reviving Your Dream Trajectory in Business & Career

-Powerful Women Finally Become Financially Fabulous

-Best Practices for Branding & Innovation

"We wanted to stick with the core of our previous events, but enhance it so this drove the purpose of our events to engage womanhood fully, from personal development to professional/business development. The idea of it being an entire weekend came from a need to collaborate and bond through sisterhood," said Ward.

"We didn't want it to be just listening to people talk, but an interactive experience between women where you could meet accountability partners, friends, and sisters."
