Themed “Building a 21st-century woman in every ramification”, the event was held at the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry Hall, Alausa, Ikeja.  

Represented at the event by Joy Ebu, HR/Admin. Manager, he noted that building a 21st-century woman in every ramification can be challenging and demanding, but achievable, adding that it is essential to take care of their wellness to succeed in every area.

“It is possible for women to have it all, to enjoy a thriving professional life while keeping a sound mind, relationships, personal aspirations and general well-being.

“Take time for yourself, practice self-care, and build a support system to help you navigate the journey of being a 21st-century woman. 

“By prioritising your wellness, you can succeed in your career, at home, in society, and in your personal life. It is also important to remember that it’s not a one-time thing but a continuous effort. Make sure to check in on yourself regularly and adjust your self-care routine accordingly,” he said. 

He further reaffirmed the brands’ commitment to partnering with them in empowerment and care as they inspire others to understand and value women’s inclusion for a better world.

Highlights at the conference include cutting of cake, hair analysis by Natures Gentle Touch, and other fun activities.
