Also, actress Niecy Nash gave an impromptu inspirational message to the women in attendance. Every woman received curated “Authentically HER” boxes. Inside each box was a gold coin which represented developing and keeping a prosperous mindset, a bracelet to be worn as a daily reminder to affirm yourself with love, 2 affirmation cards and a pen to write affirmations of encouragement. The women were asked to exchange their cards with the woman next to them as an intentional action of being your sister’s keeper.
