About this Event
Connect-Inspire-Thrive
The Celebrating Women Conference is going VIRTUAL.
Due to the ongoing pandemic, we have decided to bring wellness right into your home! We will live stream each speaker as well as record their presentation. This means unlike previous years, you will be able to see every single workshop!
The structure of the event will be three breakout sessions in the morning followed by a 30-minute lunch break and then our Keynote Speaker – Gail Miller! You may attend one live workshop per session.
2020 marks the 3rd annual Celebrating Women Conference and we are back with another fantastic line-up! This event is designed to promote wellness and balance in the lives of women across the Wasatch Front. Past conferences have featured presentations on organization, self-care, body image, positivity, mindfulness, and communication. We are super excited to expand on these concepts and provide new content this year.
