This Essence Festival weekend, the Glambitious brunch is convening a powerful lineup of speakers, bringing more than inspiration to New Orleans, they’re delivering strategy, structure, and legacy-building conversations women in business can’t afford to miss. Curated by Glambitious Founder and Brand Strategist Lillie Mae, this marks the 6th Annual All White Brunch, with the previous five events consistently selling out and drawing ambitious women from across the country.
This year’s speakers are united by one mission: to help women not only build success, but align it, protect it, and lead it with authority.
Dr. Lynda Barnes: Aligning Purpose with Profit and Legacy
Known as The Aligner and Success Doctor, Dr. Lynda Barnes is a faith-based life and business developer, AI consultant, business loan broker, and founder of The Chayil Movement and ChayilHQ software. Her work centers on helping purpose-driven leaders bring their calling into full alignment with their business strategy, funding, and technology.
At the brunch, Dr. Barnes will present “Align to Build, Grow, and Scale: Turning Your Calling Into a Business That Creates Legacy.” Her message equips women to integrate faith, identity, and innovation to build businesses that are both profitable and sustainable.
As she shares, “Women need rooms where they are not only inspired, but also activated. Glambitious creates space for women to be seen, heard, positioned, and connected… When women get in aligned rooms, they stop playing small and start building a legacy.”
Lynita Mitchell-Blackwell, Esq.: From Securing the Bag to Securing the Legacy
Estate planning attorney and founder of Light Legacy Stewardship™, Lynita Mitchell-Blackwell, Esq. brings a critical perspective to wealth-building conversations, protection. She specializes in helping high-earning women align their assets and safeguard their wealth for generations to come. Her talk will challenge attendees to shift their mindset from simply earning income to creating a lasting legacy.
“Earning wealth is only part of the story,” she explains. “My goal is for every woman in the room to leave with clarity, confidence, and a plan to protect what she’s built so it continues to serve her family and her vision.”
Her presence reinforces a powerful truth: success isn’t just about what you make, it’s about what you keep and pass on.
Rozlan Luck: Owning Your Authority Without Permission
As the founder of The R.O.L. Institute™, Rozlan Luck develops high-impact women into self-led authorities through personal development, emotional intelligence, and spiritual alignment. Her work transforms internal mastery into visible leadership that commands rooms and drives results.
Her talk, “The Authority Within: The Leadership Edge No System Can Replace,” will challenge women to stop outsourcing their power to titles, systems, or external validation and instead lead from a place of clarity, discipline, and self-trust.
“Leadership is no longer only about access, it’s about ownership,” she shares. “Women should attend if they’re ready to stop performing for approval and start leading from a place of internal authority.”
More Than a Brunch—A Room That Shifts Trajectories
The Glambitious All White Brunch continues to stand out as more than an event—it’s a curated environment where visibility, connection, and strategy intersect.
“From alignment and AI to wealth protection and leadership, this year’s speakers reflect a new standard for women in business: one where success is not only achieved, but sustained, protected, and expanded into legacy,” says Glambitious Founder, Lillie Mae
For the women who are ready for more, the message is clear: Get in the room!
