Afternoon Tea with Earlene Buggs (Emerald Ladies and above)

Born in Tampa Florida, Earlene comes from similar surroundings to Holton Buggs -- whom she married in 1993. Besides supporting her husband in his career, she is instrumental in supporting her son Tre’s music aspirations while building a strong brand of her own. Empowering women initially through her “Women Who Win” project, now evolved into “Wiin International”, Earlene has engaged her passion and creativity for which she is often recognized and awarded. Earlene is a powerful woman who cares deeply about empowering other women. Her passion is to see women rise up and become more than they thought possible. To that end, she is the creator and host of Closet Chat, an internet television program designed to help women around the world find their voice, and to understand that we are all experiencing similar challenges in life. Overcoming obstacles takes a sisterhood, and Earlene is excited and passionate about creating a movement of empowered women all around the world. Along with her husband Holton, Earlene has been directly involved in providing much needed support after natural disasters, and is passionate about supporting projects that advance the needs of the world’s most vulnerable children.
