Durban\u2019s very own Bianca Candido can now add Mrs South Africa semi-finalist to her impressive resume as she joins the class of 2023.<\/p>\n
Bianca received the happy news after the recent National Casting event at Emperors Palace, in Johannesburg. Following the announcement, the semi-finalists took part in
\na jam-packed two-day conference filled with motivational talks, workshops, upskilling sessions, socialising and networking opportunities, and an introduction to the famous Mrs SA sisterhood.<\/p>\n
\u201cHearing the announcement made the dream a little more of a reality, realising I am one step closer to achieving what I have set out to do for this year 2023 \u2013 which is not only being given the opportunity to give back to my community but also to give back to myself,\u201d says Bianca.<\/p>\n
Mrs South Africa is foremost a self-discovery and empowerment programme that celebrates
\ndiversity, ambition, and confidence while showcasing some of the country\u2019s most phenomenal and talented women, and giving them the skills and tools needed to achieve their dreams.<\/p>\n
Joani Johnson, CEO of Mrs SA, says, \u201cWe are proud to work alongside so many strong,
\nformidable, and inspirational married women, and to empower them through our pillars of
\ncommunity, self-development, and networking to be the leaders and social game-changers that we need in this country.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur experienced mentors teach leadership, entrepreneurship, marketing, self-promotion, and self-discovery throughout the year to ensure that all participants have a truly life changing experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sharing more about her decision to enter, Bianca says, \u201cas women we so often get lost in being wife\u2019s, mothers, sisters, daughters, employees that we forget, we are also WOMEN! What better way to empower yourself, than to join a sisterhood that uplifts, motives and encourages you to be the best version of yourself, where self-care is not deemed selfish, and being beautiful does not take anything away from your intellectual capabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n
As part of her journey, she hopes to \u201cenlighten, encourage and inspire other women, and girls, to take a chance on themselves, to embrace all that embodies a strong, capable, intelligent, beautiful women without apologising for being it all, having it all or wanting it all. We are here for a purpose, and we need to make a conscious decision to seek out and live that purpose to its fullest.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are blown away by the number of high-quality entries that we received this year, and we are deeply appreciative to have met so many wonderful women from all walks of life. The National Casting day was exceptionally difficult, as a substantial number of entrants have what it takes to make a success of this programme,\u201d notes Joani.<\/p>\n
This year, the casting panel was looking for women who have a keen interest in empowering others, display strong family values, and are passionate about making a difference in their community and the world.<\/p>\n
Bianca fully embodies the values that Mrs SA holds most dear, and is representative of our tagline for the year: #EveryWoman. We look forward to going on this journey with her and her fellow sisters,\u201d concludes Joani.<\/p>\n
