LIMA, Ohio (WLIO) — Hundreds of area businesswomen took time for themselves to learn about self-care and how to "glow and grow" at the quarterly Women in Business luncheon.
The event’s keynote speaker, Tesha Banks of the Bradfield Community Center, encouraged attendees to be their authentic selves and embrace their individuality. She emphasized the importance of letting their light shine while helping others do the same to create a collective "glow."
"We’re not perfect, and that’s okay," Banks said. "Admitting that helps us grow. Staying active also clears the mind."
Banks, also known as "Lady Redd," serves as the wellness mentor and program coordinator at the Bradfield Community Center. She highlighted the benefits of exercise, noting that physical activity doesn’t have to be strenuous.

"I promise, it could be a simple walk in the park," she said. "I love walking in the park—you hear the birds, see the trees, feel the wind. But also, cardio drumming is a great way to release stress, have fun, and enjoy music while staying active."
Banks got attendees out of their seats and out of their comfort zones with a few dance moves, helping to loosen them up and bring out their true selves.
