"Girltalk has been in my life for nearly 6 years now. During that time I have written the Girltalk theme song and performed for the events numerous times. Girltalk has enriched my life - I have been challenged, supported, stretched and most of all loved. Despite going through some really hard times after the birth of my daughter, I knew that there were women praying for me, and knowing this was a great comfort. When I wasn't able to attend all the events, I would pick up 'Girltalk - Lets have some' and feel the love, support and wisdom coming through.

When I attend any Girltalk event or meeting, I feel a connection to something bigger than me - somehow through sharing together as women, one becomes aware of God's presence, even if there is no overt discussion. God must really enjoy watching us women laughing, eating together, praying, sharing each others pain... and of course... talking! Girltalk is a safe place where I have been able to discover more about what it means to be a woman. I love it.."

Louise Dench, Tourism

"It is such a pleasure to be part of 'Girltalk' and a whole new dimension has surrounded my life.

I have been part of previous seminars and events which are always buzzing with atmosphere from women who are anxious to learn how to fulfill their dreams and aspirations. AND GOALS ARE REACHED with hard work and happiness.

I am also co-host of a 'Girltalk' bookclub and have made new friendships and each person brings something new to share and think about.

I love it!"

Lynda Simpson, Advisory Board member

"I come to girltalk to meet new people of likemind. To be inspired. Girltalk is something that is always fresh and new.

I attended the 'Fashion, Fitness and Food' girltalk evening, and I decided I wanted to make a change before my School Reunion 17 weeks away. I fixed a goal in my mind, and lost 10kgs. I have a new wardrobe and feel great!

I also find the girltalk material very useful, a lot of things I have heard and read, I have put into action in my life.

I have brought one friend along to girltalk, and have three other people in mind who I would also like to bring.
I find the monthly meetings very valid, and kind of like flags in my life."

"Everyone knows girlfriends are special, they are always there for you, ready to help, give advice if needed or to laugh & cry with you. Even if you don't see them for a while you can put a comma in the conversation & carry on from where you left off. Girltalk gives you the opportunity to meet lots of girls and you become like a family you have chosen for yourself."

Heidi de Groot

"I love being a part of Girltalk because it reminds me to enjoy and celebrate being a gorgeous girl, surrounded by other gorgeous girls.

I feel like a princess when I attend the Girltalk events, the spirit of the whole night is beautiful and generous."

Barbara Wiersma

"I have been with Girltalk for many years. Our small group of like minded women enjoy a strong, supportive and caring friendship. We have shared challenges and celebrations.

Together is better!

"I so look forward to meeting up with my fabulous friends on the last Thursday of each month for our Girltalk BookClub meeting. Each month's topic is always helpful and our discussion lively! The topics challenge and inspire me to live life better!"
