Ruth Makandiwa started off the Femme De Substance 2019 Meetings in Style with a classy breakfast meeting being held in the outskirts of Harare at a lush venue. This was an exclusive opportunity created for ladies to meet and fellowship as well as for business women to come together with other business women and develop relationships with a purpose of promoting each other in business.

Ruth Makandiwa took time to encourage ladies to work diligently and not rely on a salary considering that a salary would never address their financial needs. She encouraged them to be creative, have multiple streams of income and ensure that they become an influence and a force to reckon within their line of business. She discouraged the ladies from hopping from one business to the other or being a jack of all trades yet a master of none. She added that instead of joining the bandwagon of people who are always complaining and murmuring they had to display uniqueness and do business in an exceptional manner.  The ladies were treated to a delectable 5 star breakfast meal served by top chefs. The meeting ended with a time to share business contacts as well as sharing business ideas.
