The 3rd Annual Black Women L.E.A.D. Brunch is set for Saturday, March 29, 2025, from 11 AM to 1 PM. This uplifting event will feature a delicious brunch catered by Dinner is Served by Lisa, mimosas, and an inspiring keynote from Dr. Andrea Jeffress—a board-certified physician and business technology consultant. Attendees will also have the opportunity to receive free onsite screenings provided by Erie Retina Research.
This year's theme, Unapologetically Ambitious: Redefining Success on Our Terms, is a call for Black women to embrace clarity, focus, and intentionality as we navigate a time of change and transition. As the world around us shifts, we are often called to lead, problem-solve, and uplift those around us. But how often do we pause to ensure our vision for ourselves remains just as sharp?
This year’s brunch will encourage reflection, renewal, and realignment—helping us reclaim our time, energy, and purpose for the journey ahead.
