However, with the pros we are bound to experience the cons. This is why I want to share my 20 years of modelling experience by educating and empowering the youth to reach for their dreams,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Madingana\u2019s modelling conference is also aimed at addressing issues surrounding gender-based violence, and she will inspire young men and help women to speak out when experiencing bullying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy initiative is designed to educate, and share the relevant skills every model should have in order to have a successful career, as well as tools to prepare models for facing life challenges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI will teach them how to walk, turn, pose and answer questions, and we will do overall pageant preparation \u2013 including how to raise funds,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This free conference has limited space and is aimed at models of all ages, genders and size. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The girls must come in jeans and heels, and the boys in jeans and formal shoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Madingana is an international model who has walked the runways of Africa, New York City, Paris and Italy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She was a Miss South Africa Top 20 finalist in 2018, and she was in the Miss Free State top five in 2015. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2014 Madingana was crowned as Vista Miss Goldfields. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She is the founder of Earthly Skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information about the conference, contact Madingana
