Celebrating Black HerStory: Modern Day Excellence

Join us for a powerful and intergenerational International Women’s Day gathering celebrating Modern Day excellence. This event creates a space for young women to be able to see themselves reflected in stories of those who came before them and paved a path.

Through an engaging panel conversation featuring Maudeleine Myrthil and Dr. Myrna Lashley, speakers will share their journeys, challenges, and wisdom, offering honest reflections on navigating purpose, resilience, and success on their own terms. Their stories speak to both legacy and possibility, affirming that there is no single path to leadership or fulfillment. Grounded in community connection and collective reflection, this event invites you to explore the power of mentorship, representation, and asking for guidance as acts of strength.

By honouring the legacy of Black women in Montreal while uplifting present-day excellence, the event encourages the next generation to move forward with confidence, clarity, and pride.

Together, we will reflect on how the contributions of Black women continue to shape our communities, and how the next generation can build futures rooted in courage, connection, and celebration.
