There was a time I never thought I would share this part of me publicly but here we are and I honestly feel this is just the beginning. This was a very defining moment in my life and truly changed who I am today.
This is a story of deep love and loss, motherhood and partnership. my best friend from elementary school interviewed me and it couldn't be more perfect.
In February 2022, Portia launched The WE Experience. A place where women can land softly and fully embrace who they are; the good, the bad and the ugly.
Portia turned to healing, meditation and manifested a business where women from all walks of life would be celebrated, come back to themselves, and embrace themselves as they are. No more, no less. Saying fuck it to the things that no longer serve you
Portia’s mission is to bring women together from all walks of life to celebrate one another and to help women feel seen, heard and supported throughout their business and life journey. Portia's dedication to community comes naturally, since she is the first person to step up and empower women around her.
