    we are stronger together.

    At WPW, we invite women to come together to master new strategies to rise as leaders, build community with each other, and gain personal wellness along the way.

    why wpw?

    The Women Professionals Wellness Conference brings the nation's top women speakers on leadership, career development, and self-care to share their stories and strategies on building and sustaining wellness as you advance in your career.

    We actually build wellness into the conference too with:

    • Half-day sessions to allow you to reflect on what you learn and make a plan to apply those strategies.

    What women are saying…

    “Phenomenal conference that prioritizes empowering women with the tools they need to heal, grow and thrive in the challenging landscape of today! Thank you…for creating this space and continuing to bring amazing content and speakers to beautiful locations. No other conference tops this!!

    “The conference was AMAZING. The location, the content, the people, the gifts, the food. I literally have never been as taken care of as I was this conference. This conference is the best thing I have done for myself personally and professionally in a decade. Thank you for making it so easy to prioritize myself.”

    “I had an amazing time at the WPW conference. As one of the more junior attendees, I feel like I learned lessons and life skills that I can implement at work, which will hopefully benefit me in the long run. I also LOVED interacting with badass women from all over and in all different specialties. What a special group to be a part of!”
