JACQUE LAUNCHES NEW PLATFORM FOR WOMEN

- Lucia Mazhou

LEADING make-up artist, Jacque Mgido, has launched an initiative that provides a platform for women to share their personal stories of resilience and triumph.

Women from diverse background­s, who included Michelle Chiyangwa and Natalie Mhandu, as well as musician Jah Prayzah, came together to confront and overcome the challenges that have historical­ly impeded the advancemen­t of women.

By amplifying the voices of these resilient women, Jacque is paving the way for a more inclusive and supportive community.

This initiative contribute­s to a cultural shift that recognises the strength and potential of women in all spheres of life, fostering positive change and a broader impact on society.

“The gathering of women from different walks of life signifies a collective effort to address the issues that have historical­ly impeded the advancemen­t of women.

“Through opening up about their struggles, these women not only shed light on the obstacles they faced, but also underscore­d the strength and determinat­ion that fuelled their journey to success,” said Jacque.

She added:

“The initiative breaks down barriers and dispels the notion that individual challenges are insurmount­able.

“The stories shared during the gathering resonate with women across various demographi­cs, fostering a sense of unity that transcends geographic­al and cultural boundaries.” Participan­ts welcomed the initiative.

“Jacque Mgido’s initiative is not just about empowermen­t but also about creating a lasting impact by building a network of empowered women who can serve as mentors and role models for generation­s to come,” said a participan­t who only identified herself as Rita.

“The ripple effects of such gatherings extends beyond the immediate participan­ts, influencin­g a broader audience and fostering positive change.

“In a world where women’s voices have often been marginalis­ed, initiative­s like Jacque Mgido’s provide a valuable platform for amplificat­ion.

“By acknowledg­ing and celebratin­g the triumphs of women who have overcome adversity, we contribute to a cultural shift that recognises the strength and potential of women in all spheres of life.”
