Sistah’s Place Mar/Apr 2019
The CEO’s Desk Happy Women’s History Month. Sistah’s Place celebrates past, present, and the future women contributing the society. Celebrating Women’s History has been a long-standing tradition since 1978. We celebrate women across the globe and recognize the many women who are walking the path of entrepreneurs, leaders, and visionaries to make a difference in the world we live in for generations to come.
We as women inspire and empower one another to reach higher goals and dream the impossible. We as women encourage one another and give each a push. In the coming weeks in March, we will shine the light on CEO ’s who are making a difference in the community and community leaders striving to make a change. Sistah’s Place Blog Talk Radio came back in February just in time to shine the light on the men and women becoming apart of the history. Our show can now be heard on Spreaker, Spotify, YouTube, iHeart Radio, and Blog Talk Radio. We are expanding our reach to a bigger audience. Join us monthly on Thursday’s for Small Talk conversations with Letrise. Thanks to February’s Guests Jolie Reine, Mae Whiteside, and Damion L. Smith. Follow the show on either platform. March’s show will be March 21st so don’t miss it.
