Chapter 1: "Unspoken to HER"

Info: Invites you to pause and put voice to the thoughts you’ve carried in silence—whether to your past self, your future, your children, or your mother. In this intimate moment, your words are sealed with intention, with the option to have them returned to you weeks later—like a message from your own heart, arriving right on time.


đź•‘: 02:15 PM - 03:15 PM
Chapter 2: In Honor of HER

Info: Offers a quiet, sacred space to pause, reflect, and remember the women who shaped you. Through the simple act of lighting a candle, capturing a memory, and releasing it into a shared remembrance, you honor their lasting presence—leaving with a keepsake that reminds you they are never truly gone.


đź•‘: 02:15 PM - 03:15 PM
Chapter 3: Affirming HER

Info: Invites you to meet yourself with intention—face-to-face in the mirror, speaking life into who you are and who you’re becoming. As affirmations echo back in your own voice, you’ll carry forward the one that resonates most, along with a mirror to remind you: the power you seek has always been within you.


đź•‘: 02:15 PM - 03:15 PM
Chapter 4: A Tribute to HER

Info: Creates space for voices to rise—honoring self and the women who came before through powerful “I Am” and “She Is/Was” declarations. As stories and affirmations are spoken aloud, the room transforms into a living tribute, inviting others to step forward and share in a collective moment of truth, legacy, and expression.


đź•‘: 03:15 PM - 04:15 PM
Panel Discussion 1: The Weight of Sacrifice
Host: Tonja "TT" Brown

Info: The Weight of Sacrifice brings together four dynamic women who embody motherhood both on and off the screen/ stage. As real-life mothers and powerful figures within Detroit's independent film world, they hold space as nurturers, leaders, and guiding forces—offering an honest look at the balance, burdens, and beauty of carrying so much for so many.


đź•‘: 04:15 PM - 05:00 PM

đź•‘: 05:00 PM - 06:00 PM
Panel 2: The Beauty of Becoming

Info: The Beauty of Becoming explores the evolving journey of womanhood, identity, and transformation through the voices of women still unfolding into who they are meant to be. Through personal stories, hard-earned lessons, and moments of reinvention, this conversation honors the beauty found in growth, healing, and becoming—again and again.


đź•‘: 06:00 PM - 07:00 PM
H.E.R Power Hour: Honoring, Empowering, Reigniting

Info: The Final Hour is an open invitation to linger a little longer. Guests may revisit a Chapter that spoke to them most or experience the final showing of "A Mother's Sacrifice", while also embracing a space designed for connection. Through conversation, networking, reflection, and shared energy, the evening closes in community—where stories continue beyond the experience itself.
