Hard-working women in need of a dose of inspiration and empowerment are in for a treat in August. Leaders of ‘No Ma’am Nation‘ just announced award-winning broadcaster, university lecturer, and the trailblazing President of Rolling Out, Dr. Rashad Richey will deliver the keynote address for A Girls’ Day Out--an event designed to celebrate the power of women over 40 in their journeys of sisterhood, self-care and success.
The day-long event will be held Saturday, August 12, 2023 at Roswell River Landing in Roswell, Georgia and organizers promise much more than an average day out with the girls. “If you listen to Dr. Richey on the radio or any other platform, you already know he is a powerful advocate for women of every socio-economic background. But his love for Black women is crystal clear and unapologetic. So, who better than the “Realest Man on Radio” to deliver a message about expanding your personal vision and exploring new strategies for growth. We look forward to having his incomparable support and energy in this specially curated space for women,” said Mari K. Bell, who is the founder and CEO of “No Ma’am Nation.’
Bell said the event is designed to celebrate the power of sisterhood and provide a platform for seasoned women to learn and grow while they enjoy each other’s company. As the father of a teenage girl, Dr. Richey believes it’s important to ensure girls and women are constantly reassured that Black men are here to support the work and overall well-being of Black women, in positive ways.
“We all know women over 40 –particularly Black women– often carry the weight of the world on their shoulders. Some are working full-time while taking care of kids, and their parents, all while being available for the community. It’s my honor to spend some time encouraging women who are the backbone of our communities and nation,” said Dr. Richey, who juggles his multimedia and business executive career with his time as a university professor, a third-year law student, and a Ph.D. candidate in quantum physics. Dr. Richey will focus on building synergy and providing practical insight into policies, and social dynamics, to help participants take their personal and professional goals to the next level. Following his remarks, he will host an intimate Q&A session where participants can ask burning questions and gain incredible insight into how to make life-changing breakthroughs using their own gifts, skills, and talents.

Participants are encouraged to bring a group of friends, connect with like-minded women, make new friends, and celebrate the lessons learned on their own roads to success. “Women in their 40’s, 50’s and 60’s still have goals to reach and dreams to fulfill. Our journey is far from over and our ‘No Ma’am Nation’ is a testament to that. I can’t wait to see how sisters benefit from this incredible experience and we’re glad Dr. Richey is going to be an integral part of it,” Bell added.
