She Speaks CEO Honors Dynamic Women Leaders at the 2025 Women of Impact Business Leadership Brunch in Las Vegas

Las Vegas, NV – July 30, 2025 — She Speaks CEO hosted its highly anticipated Women of Impact Business Leadership Brunch on Saturday, June 28, 2025, bringing together Las Vegas women-in-leadership professionals, founders, and executives for a powerful morning of inspiration, intentional networking, and leadership recognition.

Held at The Sparklings Las Vegas, the sold-out brunch honored four remarkable women who are making bold strides across government, sports, healthcare, and hospitality; each representing excellence, resilience, and leadership in action.


Mayor Pamela Goynes-Brown, Mayor, City of North Las

The first African-American mayor in the city’s history, Mayor Goynes-Brown has dedicated her life to public service, education, and equity. Her trailblazing leadership is reshaping the future of civic engagement and opportunity in Southern Nevada. Mayor Brown was recognized at the She Speaks CEO Women of Impact Brunch with the 2025 Women of Impact “ICON” Award.


Priscilla Almeida, Vice President of Events, Las Vegas Raiders

A powerful force behind the NFL’s premier team experiences, Almeida stands as one of the highest-ranking Latinas in professional sports. Her leadership in global event strategy, fan engagement, and brand experiences continues to break barriers in the male-dominated world of sports entertainment.


Dr. Marguerite Brathwaite, MD

Board-Certified OB/GYN & “Top Doc” HonoreeRenowned for her excellence in women’s health, Dr. Brathwaite has served the Las Vegas community for over two decades. Her compassionate care, medical expertise, and commitment to empowering women through every stage of life have made her one of Southern Nevada’s most respected physicians.


Donna Lisa Murray, Las Vegas Hospitality & Event Industry ExecutiveA longtime professional within the Las Vegas hospitality and events industry, Murray is celebrated for her involvement and dedication to connecting others in the hospitality community. Her quiet yet powerful influence has made a lasting impact on countless brands and professionals throughout the city. Murray is also a stage-2 breast cancer survivor.


The event was produced by The V Agency and its women’s leadership platform, She Speaks CEO, founded by veteran entrepreneur and brand strategist Priscilla Nakane. Guests enjoyed a gourmet brunch, curated networking, inspired programming, and a moving awards presentation.

“We created this brunch to celebrate women who are leading with purpose, vision, and integrity,” said Nakane. “It’s time to elevate the stories of women—especially women of color—who are creating meaningful change. Our events go beyond traditional award ceremonies by pulling back the veil and getting up close and personal with our honorees, allowing attendees to deeply connect, engage, and be inspired. This format is something fresh and intentional, and while we may be the first to introduce it in this way, we hope it sets a new standard for how women in leadership are celebrated.”



F1 Arcade Announced as Community Sponsor: The brunch was proudly sponsored by F1 Arcade, the immersive Formula 1® gaming and hospitality experience. With locations across the UK and U.S., F1 Arcade is preparing to open its newest venue in Las Vegas later in 2025.
