This weekend in Covington, Kentucky, several events are scheduled to take place, offering a variety of activities for locals and visitors. The soHza sister Boutique is celebrating its expansion with a four-day Women's Fest at 124 W. Pike St., featuring presentations such as "Healing Her Soul" and "Hypnotherapy for Anxiety & Depression." The boutique, which began in 2013 by three sisters, aims to empower women through social enterprise.
