INSPIRING HOPE FOR THE NEXT GENERATION
Let’s transform the lives of women and girls, together!
We’re awakening a community of BIPOC women and girls to their purpose, passion and power to realize their full potential.
Helping women & girls believe in their Power & Potential
We’ve built our programs to develop women and girls as leaders, while also forging a pathway toward economic independence. Our approach is to shift mindsets, upgrade narratives, build a sense of personal power for women and girls to make positive choices and chart new paths in favor of victorious living – Becoming who they only dreamt they could one day become!
IDENTITY-BASED CHOICES
By partnering with women and girls on a journey of self-discovery, we help them better understand & factor in identity-based choices and decision-making.
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
By promoting asset activation & positive visualization, we inspire hope and set a plan of action for women and girls to unleash their gifts to positively impact the world.
ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE
By building a community of BIPOC women and girls who believe in the wild possibility of their futures, we capitalize on resource sharing on the path of entrepreneurship.

Testimonials
"I recommend Melonie Butler and the I Choose To Win Team for retreats. Before the end of the first ice breaker, Melonie had the teens fully engaged. All sessions were very organized and relevant. The teenagers left with a better self image and tools to help them on their journey. We've invited I Choose To Win back for our 2017 Women's retreat!"
For many months, I have felt inauthentic and not true to myself and something you shared about your life made me tick - and I decided at that moment I was going to finally stand up for myself. You made an impact in my life and I want to thank you for awakening/shaking up that part of me that needed to step up. - N. Girardot
Thank you so much. Putting my intentions out there into the atmosphere has helped give me even more laser-like focus. I appreciate what you are doing for folks like me. - A. Westfield
Prior to your event, I was struggling to find my voice, struggling to embrace the woman God was calling me to be; not taking the time to get to the root issues in my life. Your event helped me to see me. For the first time in a long time, I was able to embrace me and all that I am. I didn't have to hide or put on a mask, Being able to let down my wall and be amongst women full of love and support was phenomenal. - E. Edwards
