KOTA KINABALU: A meaningful and engaging Beauty, Confidence & Communication session was recently held at Zara’s Boutique Hotel, Harbour City, recently.

It brought together 35 participants from diverse professional and community backgrounds.

Hosted and advised by Datuk Eliza Goh, the session aimed to create a supportive environment where women could explore personal growth, build self‑confidence, and strengthen their communication skills for both personal and professional life.

Participants benefited from insightful talks by invited speakers Datuk Aminah Ambrose, Datuk Suzannah Liaw, Datuk Dr Tarsiah Taman and Dr Shelly Bhardwaj, who shared practical guidance on self‑presentation, inner confidence and effective communication.

The comfortable setting encouraged open dialogue, heartfelt conversations and genuine connections, fostering a warm and uplifting atmosphere throughout the afternoon.

The event was made possible with the support of the Sabah Tourism Board and Sabah Credit Corporation, whose contributions helped enhance the participants’ experience; representatives from both organisations were also present to show their support.

Organiser Siti Shaqila Zamzam said the goal was to provide a safe and encouraging space where women could grow and uplift one another.

“It was never about the numbers, but about creating something meaningful and heartfelt. Seeing the engagement and positive energy in the room was truly rewarding,” she said.

The session closed on an encouraging note, with participants expressing gratitude for the valuable insights and the chance to connect in such a positive and empowering setting.
