Thank you to our sponsorS!

Over the course of three days, you'll hear from powerhouse entrepreneurs and successful business women flourishing in their careers while living with chronic conditions.

Join us virtually this Fall to network, grow, and learn from fellow women who just "get it."


Our bodies hold the key to our internal alarm system, which alerts us to the negative effects of relentless stress on our bodies and minds. In this movement-oriented, interactive workshop, you will dive deep into self-discovery and emerge with tools to face life’s daily demands with grace.
