The girls will be chosen to attend based on a brief piece of writing submitted on a selected topic.
During the workshops, 50-100 girls will be broken into small groups and paired with businesswomen from their area.
After listening to a high-profile speaker, the girls will then be allowed question and answer time.
And playing business games will sharpen their entrepreneurial skills.
Growing up in North Carolina, in the United States, Myers had her own mentor, Kae Grageur.
"She taught me how to knit; she taught me how to swim. She was married, but her husband wasn't particularly interested in travel. So, she'd go off all by herself," Myers said.
Myers thinks it important to have a role model who is not a parent.
And it is that mentoring opportunity that she wants to provide to the girls of New Zealand.
"So I suppose the question would be: if you've got a teenage girl in your life that you care about, would this be something you'd like to see them go through?"
Myers plans to have the workshops up and running by April/May 2016.
And, even if she does not receive the scholarship, she plans to implement the workshops in Hamilton.
The funding would allow her to use her networks to reach the wider community of young women nationwide.
