In Her Shoes Empowerment Breakfast to feature celebration of impact, resilience

This paid event listing is sponsored by EmBe.

Start your day off with an inspirational celebration of impact, resilience and belonging at the annual In Her Shoes Empowerment Breakfast on Thursday, March 2.

“You’ll join hundreds of attendees, both men and women, to hear stories that will invigorate and move you to take action,” said Susanne Gale, chief development officer at EmBe.

“Our theme of the event is: At this table, everyone is welcome. Everyone is seen. Everyone matters.”

Poet and artist Angelica Mercado-Ford, author of “Todo Revoluciona,” will serve as keynote speaker.

“Angelica supports the parallel vision of women being their whole selves through her self-reflection on belonging and the path of the in-between: two cultures, two countries and two identities,” Gale said. “She explores the in-between through poetry and mixed media artworks, both playful and powerful.”

In addition, Britza Performing Arts Studio will take the stage dancing to “At This Table,” a tribute to the theme of the event.

The annual In Her Shoes Empowerment Breakfast supports each woman’s journey with EmBe.

“Whether it’s a pair of shoes, a new professional outfit or professional and personal development through our Women’s Leadership Program, each dollar raised ensures a woman gains what she needs when she arrives,” Gale said.

At this table, everyone is welcome. Everyone is seen. Everyone matters.
