WLT (Where Ladies Talk) celebrated women throughout the month of March, hosting a series of talks every Wednesday via Zoom under the title “Let’s Talk Like Crazy: Choose to Challenge Mental Health”. Front and centre were amazing women like Samina Cepal, Jessica St. Rose and Abisola Amina, who shared personal success stories. These were supported with valuable professional information from Francesca Plummer, Dr. Julius Gillard and Olympia Piper-Cools Vitalis. Singers Naomi Grandison and Sally Elwin, spoken word artistes Janice Hector and Lisa Dublin and calypsonian Lady Leen were engaged to entertain and to help us forget this pandemic, if only for a while.
WLT Elects New Executive to Steer Women’s Organisation
Many Non-Government-Organizations have Facebook pages and groups, but very few FB Groups become NGOs.
With a following of over 2000 women worldwide, Where Ladies Talk, founded by Sanue Joseph-Poyotte has made massive strides to becoming a formal woman-centric organization dedicated to empowering, uplifting, motivating and inspiring women.
“In producing The Soup, I found that women needed a place to feel equal. I am relentless in my pursuit to create equality for women but I’m also of the view that we (women) need to see each other as equals first as we demand it from the rest of the world,” says Sanue on her motive for creating the FB Group.

International Women’s month in March is unusually dire this year in the wake of COVID-19 restrictions that have seen women put under increased stress. It is for this reason Where Ladies Talk felt it necessary to focus on mental health and our everyday challenges in the second instalment of “A Woman Speaks”.
Women face economic pressure as they lose almost twice as many jobs as men during Covid-19 are subject to an unequal burden in childcare and suffer increased violence as they are put in vul-
nerable positions during the lockdowns. The Where Ladies Talk online collective have sought to assist with a number of initiatives including “A Woman Speaks”.
