From fascinating conversations to hands-on creativity, we’re serving up a full day of compelling workshops, laughter-filled moments, and a delicious lunch with an uplifting community of women.

The highlight of the morning? A powerful keynote address by acclaimed journalist and author Abby Ellin, whose book DUPED dives into the captivating—and sometimes chilling—world of deception and resilience. Her personal story is as gripping as it is empowering.
