When Nikki Walton launched CurlyNikki.com in 2008, the 25-year-old psychotherapist had no idea it would change the way Black women feel about themselves. Her recognized platforms root from lived experiences and learned education, receiving nods from Forbes, Black Enterprise, NBC’s Today Show, Steve Harvey, Dr. Oz, Tracee Ellis Ross and dozens more. Now, the best-selling and NAACP Image Award-nominated author, and host of the spirituality podcast, ‘New Growth’, engages with her nearly 1 million followers across social media. Her unique sensibility of inner and outer beauty is the force behind the new virtual conference, BeHerSummit.

Walton hopes the inaugural conference will help women recognize that the becoming is in the Being. “I love and serve people — that's my purpose. In the past, this manifested as helping women who look like me find freedom through embracing their natural hair and skin. But for the past four years, there has been the inspiration to shift focus and share a path to ultimate freedom. I created BeHerSummit to help women step into their whole selves by being happy, now, being confident, now... by being HER, now.” Walton partnered with co-founder, and organizer, Mike “Orie” Mosley of Afrotrak, and CRWNMAG for the inaugural conference, and anticipate over 500 attendees.
Tickets are available now for purchase for the virtual conference at behersummit.com.
Early bird tickets are $40 and general admission tickets $60.
