The Bernini Purple Rain Soiree held at the National Museum and Art Gallery in Gaborone was a groundbreaking event aimed at uniting women from diverse backgrounds to celebrate the essence of womanhood in the modern age. Organized by media personality Boineelo Hardy in collaboration with Bernini, a brand of sparkling spritzers tailored for empowered and confident women, the soirée provided a platform for women to connect, share stories, and revel in their feminine identity.
Taking place around Women’s Day, the soirée was conceived as an alternative to traditional high tea events, offering a welcome change with its lively and celebratory atmosphere. Boineelo Hardy expressed her vision for the event to become a recurring celebration for decades to come, providing a space for women to have fun, share their perspectives, and foster a sense of camaraderie.
Attendees at the soirée embraced the theme of self-love, with many women affirming the importance of prioritizing their well-being and personal growth. The keynote speaker, Linda Keloneilwe, a legal professional and mother, imparted valuable insights on finding balance in various roles as a woman, including managing household duties, community involvement, and economic engagement.
Drawing inspiration from Proverbs 31, Keloneilwe highlighted the virtues of a strong, selfless, and industrious woman who embraces her multifaceted responsibilities with grace and efficiency. She emphasized the significance of delegation, self-care practices like engaging in a side hustle and purchasing flowers for oneself, and setting boundaries by learning to say no when necessary.
As the evening unfolded, guests were encouraged to raise their glasses in a toast to an enriching day filled with elegance, laughter, and a shared sense of belonging in a space that honors and celebrates the diverse experiences of womanhood. The event concluded on a high note, with attendees appreciating the opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals and to bask in the empowering atmosphere created at the Bernini Purple Rain Soiree.
In essence, the inaugural Bernini Purple Rain Soiree served as a testament to the resilience, strength, and unity of women across different walks of life. By fostering a sense of community, celebration, and mutual support, the event laid the foundation for future gatherings that will continue to uplift and empower women in Botswana and beyond. As attendees departed with a renewed sense of inspiration and camaraderie, the impact of the soirée reverberated as a beacon of empowerment and solidarity for women navigating the complexities of modern life.
