Interested in participating?
Every booth. Every class. Every workshop. It all goes further than one day.
Wellness for Women is a full day of movement, community, and connection. It's also a fundraiser.
Wellness for Women isn't just an event, it's how Expand Leadership Initiative funds the work that happens the other 364 days of the year: monthly Networking and SHE Series workshops, scholarships to conferences & events that remove financial barriers, and FEMPIRE, our business summit for women business owners ready to grow. Every VIP ticket purchased, every booth reserved, every class led, every workshop hosted helps power Expand Leadership Initiative's year-round work getting women into the rooms that change them.
Growth does not happen in isolation, it happens in rooms and community, where you find your next collaborator, your next mentor, your next client, your next brave idea. Expand Leadership Initiative exists to make sure more women entrepreneurs get access to those rooms, regardless of what's in their bank account. Scholarships. Removed barriers. Real community. That's the mission behind every event we run.
When you reserve a booth or lead a class, you're not just reaching up to 500 women in one room, you're helping fund the next woman's seat at the table. That's the kind of return only a mission-driven event can offer. Reserve your spot. Fund the mission. Help more women rise.

9:30–10:00 AM | Somatic / Nervous System
SOMATIC / NERVOUS SYSTEM: Learn how your nervous system impacts your everyday life, and how you can support it when stress takes over. You'll leave with a simple, practical exercise you can use anytime to help your body shift from stress toward greater ease and resilience.
Dr. Michelle MacCarthy, Wellness Rhythms
10:10–10:40 AM | Hormonal Health
Menopause is one day in your life. It’s the lead up to it that can be challenging.
There’s so much more to it than hot flashes. As your hormones change, your whole body, and your brain, will change also. But that’s okay – we’re built to do this! We just need to know what’s happening and where to go from there… it’s the pathway that has been missing for generations. Today, we get a map.
Dana Reynolds, True North Coaching
10:50–11:20 AM | What if We've Been Thinking about Women's Safety All Wrong?
The Protectress Method explores a more holistic approach to safety, one that goes beyond preparing for physical threats to consider how well you know yourself, whether you trust what you know, and how confidently you take action to protect what matters most.
In this interactive workshop, Alison Bosworth, founder of Strong Is Beautiful and creator of the Protectress Method, introduces the connection between Internal Safety (I can trust myself) and External Readiness (I can handle myself) and how they influence the way we navigate our health, boundaries, relationships, careers, and everyday lives.
Drawing from her experience as a former FBI analyst, black-belt martial artist and self-defense instructor, corporate executive, and Ayurvedic practitioner with advanced study in integrative medicine, Alison brings together perspectives on personal safety, leadership, and whole-person wellbeing to challenge our traditional understanding of what it means for a woman to feel safe.
You'll leave with a new perspective on what it means to feel safe, capable, and connected to yourself….plus experience External Readiness firsthand through learning practical self-defense skills.
Alison Bosworth, Strong Is Beautiful
11:30 AM–12:00 PM | From Burnout to Beloved
You've been running on empty, giving everyone else the version of you that's patient, capable, and put-together — while quietly wondering when it'll be your turn.
From Burnout to Beloved is an experience for women ready to stop white-knuckling their way through exhaustion and start building a real relationship with themselves — one rooted in trust, tenderness, and small sustainable action instead of one more thing to fix.
This isn't about adding self-care to your to-do list. It's about becoming your own beloved — the one you trust, the one you show up for, the one you're building a life with.

12:10–12:40 PM | Finding Peace Within
Life can become so full of expectations, responsibilities, past experiences, and outside noise that we lose connection with our own sense of peace.
In this reflective and empowering workshop, participants will explore what peace looks like for them personally and identify what may be getting in the way of experiencing it. Through guided reflection, meaningful conversation, and practical exercises, we’ll explore letting go of what no longer serves us, creating healthier boundaries, reconnecting with our own voice, and giving ourselves permission to choose peace without guilt.
Participants will leave with greater clarity around what they need, what they are ready to release, and simple ways to create more moments of peace in their everyday lives.
Tiffany Sharp, The Diamond Place
12:50–1:20 PM | Throw Down 101

Ceci Bury, Fly Dance Fitness
1:30–2:00 PM | What if You Trusted Yourself?
What becomes possible when you turn down the outside noise and start trusting what you already know? Join Kim Marie, founder of Teal Moon Wellness, for an experiential mind + body workshop designed to help you pause, listen inward, and reconnect with your inner knowing. Through guided reflection and body awareness, you’ll explore what you’re ready to release, what you’re ready to trust, and how to move forward with greater intention. Self trust isn’t the absence of second guessing. It’s deciding not to let the second guessing make the decision.
Kim Rasmussen, Teal Moon Wellness
2:10–2:40 PM | Perimenopause + Hormones
Fatigue, muscle aches, brain fog, a tanking libido, hot flashes, irregular cycles, and mood swings: Perimenopause often arrives with more questions than answers. Treating perimenopause isn't about covering up symptoms with a band-aid. It’s about listening to what your intuition is trying to tell you. Learn strategies to support longevity and wellbeing from the inside out. Come re learn, ask questions, and step into your next season feeling balanced and empowered.
Abbey Jones, Osasuna Wellness
2:50–3:20 PM | Coming Into Yourself: A Somatically Informed Wellness Class
What if feeling better isn't about getting rid of stress but moving through it? The interactive workshop offers hands-on connection between the body, emotions and nervous system. Through simple guided exercises and optional partner activities, you'll explore how your body responds to connection and stress, and practice practical ways to find greater steadiness when life feels overwhelming. Join us!
Katie Fosselius
3:30–4:00 PM | Ayurveda for Vibrant Health
