SUMMARY:If Not You\, Then Who? An Evening of Connection
DESCRIPTION:What happens when a room full of women stops waiting for permission? \nOn June 17\, If Not You\, Then Who? brings together some of Canada’s most inspiring voices for an evening of candid conversation about confidence\, ambition\, identity\, reinvention\, and the evolving definition of success. \nCreated and hosted by Margot Grant Witz\, Vice President of Elizabeth Grant Skin Care and a leading voice in the pro-aging movement\, the event explores a question many women quietly wrestle with: Why do we so often value someone else’s “no” more than our own “yes”? \nJoining Margot for an intimate evening of keynotes and conversation are fashion icon Jeanne Beker\, media personality and podcast host Taylor Kaye\, entrepreneur Dani Kagan\, Co-Founder of Mave & Chez\, and bestselling author and media executive Bryce Gruber. The evening will be emceed by Alana Kayfetz of The Mom Halo. \nTogether\, they’ll explore the realities of modern womanhood\, including confidence at every stage of life\, self-worth\, the mental load women carry\, balancing ambition with fulfillment\, and redefining success on your own terms. \nMore than a networking event\, If Not You\, Then Who? is designed as a space for connection\, reflection\, and meaningful conversation among women navigating careers\, motherhood\, relationships\, reinvention\, and personal growth. \nThe event takes place Wednesday\, June 17\, 2026\, from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at Edwards Gardens (Toronto Botanical Garden). Tickets are $36\, with a portion of proceeds supporting Princess Margaret Cancer Centre. Guests will enjoy light refreshments\, complimentary parking\, and a curated gift bag featuring products from Elizabeth Grant Skin Care and participating partners.
