Complete Girlz Inc. Announces Six Virtual Workshops on Self-Esteem and Leadership for Young Girls Ages 12+

The workshops will empower young women between 12 and 24 years old to develop their abilities, become better leaders, own their future—and excel in everything they do in life. Michelle Obama, former First Lady of the United States, once said, “Success isn’t about how much money you make; it’s about the difference you make in people’s lives.”

This is the motivation behind the establishment of Complete Girlz Inc., a non-profit organization that offers young women between the ages of 12 and 24 a full-service program geared towards helping them become better personalities. Today, Complete Girlz is pleased to announce its upcoming virtual youth empowerment sessions on self-esteem and leadership specially designed for young ladies.

Complete Girlz is a mentorship and empowerment platform that offers uniquely crafted, holistic leadership training to young women in today’s rapidly evolving world and this lineup of virtual workshops is a step in the fulfillment of its vision. According to Earlene Lezama-Taylor, President and CEO of Complete Girlz Inc., the organization will host six virtual empowerment sessions from October until December. “Every lady should possess a high sense of self-esteem and good leadership skills,” said Earlene.

“The workshops will feature keynote lectures by well-respected and authority teachers who will provide guidance, tips, and hacks for young women to develop these essential traits. Women have been marginalized for too long, and to correct this we need to nurture these young ladies.”

Senator James Sanders Jr. Calls on Three Los Angeles City Council Members to Resign After Racist Comments

Senator James Sanders said: “As elected officials we are held to a higher standard because we have chosen a life of public service and therefore set an example for others. Under those conditions, I am outraged over the disgusting racist remarks made by now-former Los Angeles City Council president Nury Martinez.

Her October 2021 conversation with her colleagues Council Members Kevin de León and Gil Cedillo was caught on tape and just made public recently, prompting many leaders including President Biden, to call for their resignations. I am in agreement with that.

I don’t think anyone in public office should have used the kind of language that Martinez used and since de León and Cedillo failed to intervene they are equally guilty. They should have told her not to use those slurs, that it was wrong and offensive, but they remained silent.

Happy National Hip Hop Day!
