SOULFUL DIVORCÉE
SATURDAY, MARCH 29TH, 2025

The Soulful Divorcée event was nothing short of electric—a gathering that radiated strength, sisterhood, and soul. With the inspiring Sophie Grégoire Trudeau as a featured guest, the room pulsed with authenticity, vulnerability, and courage as stories of resilience and reinvention were shared. Surrounded by a powerful lineup of women-owned businesses, the energy in the space was palpable—every corner buzzing with connection, possibility, and purpose. This wasn't just an event; it was a movement in motion. Women left feeling seen, heard, and deeply empowered, reminded that their next chapter is not only theirs to write but to celebrate.

Born for More was proud to partner with the Red Door Family Shelter, a key community resource since 1982, offering essential emergency shelter and support to women and children escaping domestic abuse, families in housing crises, and refugee claimants seeking safety.

SOULFUL DIVORCÉE EVENT TESTIMONIALS

“Don’t be misled by the word ‘divorce’—this event isn’t solely about that. Born for More is designed to empower women during transitions, whether you’re embarking on a new career, recovering from a breakup, embracing life as an empty nester, or courageously leaving your marriage. This event opens doors to countless opportunities to uplift, enlighten, and empower. It’s all about hitting the restart button, discovering fresh brands, and dismantling the stigma surrounding divorce. It’s a new beginning, not an end! There was so much happening that my girlfriends and I stayed all day!”

Danielle Goreski

“The Born For More Soulful Divorcée event was a truly empowering space where women came together to heal, rediscover themselves, and step into their next chapter with confidence. Divorce is more than just a life transition—it’s a rebirth, and during this time, a woman’s body undergoes immense emotional and physical changes. As a women’s wellness coach specializing in hormonal balance, I help women navigate this journey by addressing the impact of stress, emotional shifts, and lifestyle changes on their health. Through nutrition, movement, and holistic wellness, I guide and support women in reclaiming their energy, confidence, and well-being so they can move forward feeling strong, vibrant, and truly aligned with themselves.”

“It was such a gift to be part of this empowering event. Connecting with women who are embracing their next chapter with courage and grace reminded me just how vital self-care and self-love truly are. My work exists to support women in rediscovering their worth, their bodies, and their joy, especially during transformative times like this. Because healing doesn’t mean going back; it means moving forward with intention.”

Natalia Banton
Founder of Dott

“Menopause can rock the foundation of a marriage — and for many women, it becomes the unexpected catalyst for divorce. But what if that disruption is also your awakening?

The Soulful Divorcee Event…..what unfolded was nothing short of spectacular, inspirational, and unforgettable. The energy? Electric. Every detail was thoughtfully curated, and the powerful words of our speakers lit up the room with one undeniable truth: how we live—our lifestyle—determines how we rise through the menopause transition.

This is my mission: to make wellness not just accessible and sustainable but also deeply rooted in strength, joy, and sisterhood. A radiant next chapter isn’t optional — it’s non-negotiable.

We’re only getting started. Let’s step into this new season strong, healthy, radiant, and completely unstoppable — together.”

“The Soulful Divorcee was an incredibly transformative event, filled with wisdom, healing, and empowerment. Honoured to style Kathryne Mejias, CEO and founder of Born For More, a true powerhouse with an inspiring vision! To witness so many women stepping into their next chapter with confidence and grace is very powerful. I find true joy in helping women navigate life after divorce through my styling and wardrobing services —guiding them to rediscover their strength, embrace their worth, and design a life they truly love! Seeing them move from heartbreak to empowerment is the most rewarding journey, and I’m grateful to be part of it.

It’s not just about a new wardrobe; it’s about embracing a new, empowered version of yourself.”

“Kathryne Mejias’ Soulful Divorcee event was nothing short of transformative, an exquisite blend of elegance, empowerment, and soul-nourishing sisterhood.

From the moment I walked in, I was enveloped in an atmosphere of sophistication and warmth, where every detail, from the inspiring speakers to the carefully curated vendors, felt intentional, soul-full and deeply meaningful.

Kathryne has a beautiful gift for making women feel seen, celebrated, and unstoppable. Her message, that we are not defined by our past, but Born for More, resonated in every conversation, and every connection made. This wasn’t just an event; it was inspiration at its finest.

If you’re a woman ready to reclaim your confidence, ignite your soul, and step boldly into your next chapter, Kathryne’s work is your compass. She doesn’t just inspire, she ignites. And trust me, you’ll leave knowing, without a doubt, that your best life is still ahead.”
