BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER
Atlanta empowerment extraordinaire Sylinda Mumphery’s annual featured event just keeps getting better with time.
For the sixth consecutive year, Mumphery’s Remove The Bandages organization will host the Women Winning I’m Still Standing Winning Red Carpet Women Awards Ceremony.
Unlike in years past when this event covered three days, the 2022 edition of RTB Winning Women Awards Ceremony has been appropriately dubbed a “Red Carpet,” one-night affair in large part because of COVID-19 concerns and will take place on Saturday, March 12 from 7 to 9:30 p.m. EST via Zoom.
Powered by Women’s History Month, the RTB Women Winning I’m Still Standing Winning Red Carpet Women Awards Ceremony will be co-hosted by Mumphery and Karen Hughes and will feature live entertainment, a gallery of speakers, its featured awards ceremony, as well as vendors and prize giveaways.
Tickets to the RTB Women Winning I’m Still Standing Winning Red Carpet Women Awards Ceremony can be purchased at http://www.sylindad.com/.

“In celebration of Women’s History Month, we honor women from all walks of life who are winners and overcomers of traumatic situations that took place in their lives such as domestic violence, homelessness, rape, abuse, drug addiction, burn and cancer survivors, those who fight for our country and those who are making a difference,” Mumphery told Making Headline News. “The purpose is to present a platform of celebration as they are allowed to share their stories of triumph while surrounded by love and support from an organization that stands behind them and for them.”
The owner and CEO of SylindaD, LLC, Mumphery for years has been an advocate for Women’s History Month, which is recognized annually in March by Presidential proclamation.
Women’s History Month began as a local celebration in Santa Rosa, California, according to a detailed synopsis of this movement at https://www.womenshistory.org/womens-history/womens-history-month. The Education Task Force of the Sonoma County (California) Commission on the Status of Women planned and executed a “Women’s History Week” celebration in 1978. The organizers, meanwhile, selected the week of March 8 to correspond with International Women’s Day. The movement then spread across the country as other communities initiated their own Women’s History Week celebrations the following year.
Also, in 1980, a consortium of women’s groups and historians — led by the National Women’s History Project (now the National Women’s History Alliance) — successfully lobbied for national recognition. Then, in February 1980, President Jimmy Carter issued the first Presidential Proclamation by declaring the Week of March 8, 1980 as National Women’s History Week.
Said Mumphery of this year’s RTB Winning Red Carpet Women Awards Ceremony, which is virtual for the second time:
“Each year we try to change the overall deliverance of the entire event by making it more personable and inviting for everyone. We were virtual last year due to COVID and wanted to make sure that we took the necessary precautions for everyone to remain safe.”
Also, there will be a segment during the awards show that will shine the spotlight on men, a trend Mumphery and RTB officials started four years ago.

“Men also experience difficulties in life and sometimes need that encouragement to let them know that they are not alone,” Mumphery said. “More and more men over the past eight years have been supporting the movement and several have reached out to tell me their personal life stories of hurt and trauma. After talking to several of them, my mother and I had a conversation and decided that it would be great to include men and honor them with the RTB Mighty Men of Valor Award.”
Suitably known as “SylindaD,” Mumphery is an accomplished author, mentor, life coach, evangelist, international speaker, and radio talk show host.
The founder of Girls To Pearls Mentoring Program and Removing The Bandages Women’s Movement and Gloww Sisterhood, Mumphery serves as the co-facilitator for My Sisters Keeper Cordele. Her movement has been deemed “very powerful,” in large part because it allows her to grace many platforms and stages as she speaks into the lives of women, encouraging them to expose their wounds, undress the mess and allow healing to begin.
