Glow Up, Girl: A Day of Wellness—a half-day workshop featuring three wellness-oriented panels—will be held March 16 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at The Lola in Atlanta. The event, sponsored by lululemon, takes place during International Women’s Month. Panel topics include Self Love, Sex and Hormones, and Gut Health, and each panel will feature three panelists. 

The event is hosted and moderated by Dr. Poorvi Chordia and Jess Pfeffer. Chordia is an internal medicine physician and co-founder of Herbs & Kettles, a premium tea company she founded with her husband. Pfeffer is the founder of an eponymous holistic event planning consultancy. 

“I’m super excited to co-host this with a friend, Dr. Poorvi Chordia,” says Pfeffer. “When she asked me to co-host and help plan this experience, I said yes right away! The conversations are going to be game-changers for women’s everyday lives and will help them on their journey to optimal health. I envision this day filled with love and laughter and connections.”


Additionally, local yoga teacher and kirtan artist Shonali Banerjee will provide a music and mantra session.

A portion of the event’s proceeds will go to Raksha, an Atlanta nonprofit that has been serving the South Asian community with a variety of services since 1995. “The word ‘raksha’ means protection in Sanskrit,” adds Pfeffer.
