GUEST SPEAKER: Mandie Clark
TOPIC: A Woman’s Story: Permission to Come Home to Yourself
WHERE: Bella Milano – 1063 S State Rte 157 Edwardsville, IL
WHEN: Thursday, September 10, 2026 – 11:30AM-1:00PM CST
Permission to Come Home to Yourself is a talk about breaking free from the roles, expectations, and performances women are conditioned to live in. It explores what happens when we stop waiting to be chosen, stop shrinking to fit, and start giving ourselves permission to be seen, to take up space, and to belong to ourselves again. It’s an honest reminder that the moment we stop performing is the moment we finally get to live.
