Ladies, mark your calendar! ✨

Haitian Ladies Weekend is officially returning, and we cannot wait to gather again in powerful sisterhood.

📍 Washington, DC
📅 October 2–4, 2026

Join us for the HLW Experience — a 3-day immersive leadership and cultural summit designed to nourish your mind, spirit, and purpose.

The HLW Experience includes:
• World-class speakers & thought leaders
• Curated networking with dynamic women across industries
• Wellness sessions to restore and renew
• Extraordinary cultural programming hosted across Washington, DC’s premier institutions

Women do not leave Haitian Ladies Weekend the same. They leave connected, empowered, and ignited.
This is more than a conference — it’s a beautiful way to gather, reconnect, and build the powerful community we deserve.

✨ Save the date. Make the space. See you there. ✨

Thank you to everyone who stopped by The Juicing Spot table to taste, purchase, and support. Fanm Vanyan, Milliton Glow & Joumou Glow had us all feeling at home.

Two weeks later, we’re still celebrating our Haitian women entrepreneurs. The Juicing Spot is where it started, and Nourascend is where they’re growing. 🌱

Want them at your next event? Email michelande@thejuicingspot.com

Support Haitian-owned. Support Haitian women. 💛

Supporting Haitian businesses doesn’t always have to cost a thing! 🇭🇹❤️

Happy Sunday, everyone! ☀️

This Sunday, let’s show some love to the incredible Haitian-owned businesses that were part of the Haitian Ladies Network conference!

Support doesn’t always have to mean spending money! Sometimes, something as simple as a follow, a like, or a share can go a long way.

So here’s my little Sunday challenge: Follow these businesses! And if you can’t follow them all, show some love to the ones that interest you most. You never know how much your support can mean to a small business owner. ❤️

To all the vendors featured in this video: Drop a comment below so everyone can find you more easily! 👇🏾

Let’s continue to uplift, celebrate, and support Haitian entrepreneurs, one follow at a time! 🇭🇹 by @haitianladiesnetwork

Three days. Hundreds of Haitian women. One unforgettable weekend in Washington,DC. 🇭🇹💜

Haitian Ladies Weekend: Igniting Our Power 2026 brought together our community in Washington, D.C. for a weekend rooted in belonging, history, and connection. To everyone who came, spoke, vended, volunteered, and made this space what it was: thank you. You are the reason it all felt like home. 💙❤️

Let’s talk about magic on these pages! When creating The OUR VODOU series for children, it was vital that the illustration s reflect the warmth, majesty and pure beauty of our spiritual heritage. We wanted children to see a world filled with glowing colors, gentle spirits and radiant protection. From the soaring mountains of Northern Haiti to the sacred forests, every page is a love letter to Haiti: land of Mountains.

Such a meaningful weekend with Haitian Ladies Network! As an educator, future teacher, and member of the NextGen Committee, being surrounded by inspiring Haitian women means so much to me. I truly believe that educators belong not only in classrooms, but also in spaces where we can advocate for our children, especially those back home in Haiti. Because empowering the next generation starts with education. ❤️ by @haitianladiesnetwork

You made the weekend look as good as it felt. 💜 by @haitianladiesnetwork

Her story is rooted, and so is ours. 🌿🇭🇹

HerStory at Haitian Ladies Weekend featured Tara A. Nicolas, Actor, Nike Trainer, Founder of Tea Time with T, in conversation with Jess Desvarieux (@directjess ), Filmmaker and Creative Director at The Phases of Moonie Productions. They talked honestly about the pivotal moments and lessons that shaped her journey, and how the roots of Haitian women guide the choices they make and the work they lead.
Sitting in that room, it was easy to see pieces of your own story in hers.

Thank you, Tara, for sharing yours. 💜

My second Haitian Ladies Weekend, and this one was truly one for the books! ✨

If there’s one thing about me, it’s that I LOVE to sell. And as Mark Cuban says, “Sales cures all.” Marketing can buy attention, but it can’t buy genuine connection, sales, or conversion.

I’m growing SOUF Collectif the old-fashioned way: through hard work, genuine relationships, and showing up. I love sharing something I genuinely believe in and the story behind it. Watching people fall in love with ALIZÉ is the greatest joy.

This weekend, I was surrounded by some of the most incredible, positive, and encouraging Haitian women. I made meaningful connections, shared SOUF with so many women who just get it, and left feeling more inspired than ever.

There’s something so special about finding your own footing and being surrounded by women who celebrate your vision, encourage your ambition, and remind you that there’s room for all of us to shine.

Thank you to every woman who stopped by, supported, purchased, encouraged, or simply shared a kind word.

Thank you to @bienabye and @haitianladiesnetwork for creating such an incredible space for Haitian women to connect, celebrate one another, build meaningful relationships, and shine together. 💙🌿✨

And to everyone watching this journey unfold… stay tuned. I’m just getting started. ✨

My first Haitian Ladies Weekend in Washington, DC, was a truly meaningful experience.

On the “Engaging with Haiti” panel, I had the opportunity to share my journey as an entrepreneur, the work we are building through @kaunahaiti (Kaûna), and what it means to remain committed to building in Haiti, even when the path is not always easy.

Grateful to the @haitianladiesnetwork for this beautiful space and to the remarkable Haitian women I had the privilege of sharing it with.

A special thank you to @fokalayiti , longtime partner of Kaûna, for supporting my participation.

Rasin Nou Se Fòs Nou.
