The countdown is on for the We Inspire Women Brunch, which returns for its ninth staging on Sunday, August 31, 2025, at 10:00 am at the Jamaica Pegasus hotel in Kingston.

Known for its colourful display of community and high energy, the brunch gathers an extraordinary mix of leaders, entrepreneurs, creatives, and changemakers for a morning of connection and inspiration.

Proudly sponsored by the Students’ Loan Bureau, this year’s theme, ‘Promise, Pain, then Purpose’, will spotlight powerful real-life journeys of resilience and triumph, shared by some of the Caribbean’s most dynamic voices in business, wellness, media, and faith. Guests are invited to show up ‘Powerful in Pink’ to celebrate strength, softness, and individuality through every shade of the iconic colour.

“This is more than a brunch. It is a movement,” says Cortia Bingham-McKenzie, founder of We Inspire Women. “The atmosphere, the testimonies, the connections! This is where women step into their next level. It is the perfect reset to finish 2025 strong.
