Women’s mental and emotional renewal as a driver for national productivity was the main focus at the 6th Renewed Woman conference held under the theme “Recharge” at Labone in Greater Accra,
Over 700 attendees were at the event which featured media personality, Nana Ama McBrown, as the guest speaker.
Various elements, including a session with clinical psychologist Dr. Abra Dziedorm, anchored the message of recharge.
The founder of Emerge New Woman, Lady Mae addressing the gathering said the annual conference was not merely a motivational event, but a necessary intervention for promoting wellness that translates to peak performance and productivity.
“Renewed Woman is a transformative gathering where women come to reflect, share their stories, and draw strength. It provides a safe, empowering space for mental, emotional, and personal renewal, reminding women that restoration is part of growth,” she said.
The three pillars that underpin Emerge New Woman’s ethos are Healing, Empowerment and Re-integration.
The non-governmental organisation has been investing in psycho-education, seed funding, business skills training and various support services.
“Recharge is about recognising that need and choosing restoration before exhaustion sets in. Many of us feel lost or that we are failing; but we are simply running on empty batteries,” she explained, highlighting how burnout impedes professional and entrepreneurial output.
The event also served as a platform for partnership appeals and a showcase of the organisation’s financial footprint.
Lady Mae announced the launch of her second book, Save You First, which underscores the principle of conscious self-investment.
According to her, to expand the foundation’s impact, they are actively seeking sponsorship and partnerships from government institutions, corporate bodies, and other NGOs.
A total of 30 seed fund beneficiaries were supported at the event. Five beneficiaries exhibited the products from their skills.
Twelve beneficiaries received a share of GH¢50,000 and 18 others received products, including appliances, equipment, and supplies for their businesses.
The special guest speaker, Nana Ama McBrown, reinforced the necessity of recharging for peak performance. Sharing her own life’s journey, she charged the audience with a mandate not to give up and keep pushing.
“You can’t sit at the same place and expect things to move in your favor in 2026. As you enter into 2026, always be on the move and God’s favor will locate you,” she said.
