2:15pm - 2:45pm Empower Yourself Online and Off

Take ownership and give voice to who you are and what you stand for. The challenge of change is upon us as we edge towards a new ERA: Explore - Restore – Adore. Just how far are we willing to go to fit in? Why do we do what we do, say what we say and buy what we buy? We have the power to end the bullying and to stop being the bystanders in our lives. Experts, Alexandra Penn and Leigh Rachel Faith of Champions Against Bullying, help you equate the new femininity with standing your ground, being assertive and respecting and accepting wonderful YOU.
