What an amazing and inspiring weekend in Columbus, Ohio!

Mimi had the incredible opportunity to motivate leaders at Rotary leaders training, raise awareness about C.G. Women’s Empowerment, and encourage others to continue creating impact in their communities. It was truly a blessing to participate as both a guest speaker and vendor at the Rotary President Training Event.

She is deeply grateful for the chance to connect, share, and serve alongside such passionate and dedicated leaders who are committed to making a difference.

A special thank you to District Governor Ryan Boyce, Craig Maxey, and their amazing team for creating this opportunity and for their leadership.
