Two days in two minutes
The highlight reel — keynotes, conversations, and moments in between.
PILLAR · HEALTH
Health
From The Missing Middle in women’s health to longevity, performance, and the wellness reset for high-performing women, we went beyond symptom management to explore the science of energy, hormones, and aging well—and what it takes to feel as strong as you are.
PILLAR · WEALTH
Wealth
From the great wealth transfer to emerging asset classes, we moved past the basics to how accomplished women actually deploy capital. Owning rather than earning, investing with conviction, and building the kind of wealth that outlasts a single career.
PILLAR · INFLUENCE
Influence
From title to platform, we examined how modern power is built. Influence is no longer tied to position — it is earned through perspective, relationships, and reach. This was reinvention, legacy, and the architecture of power for the third act.

What attendees say
This is exactly what I needed. Couldn’t have come at a better time.
Edlynne Larea,
Managing Director & Head of Industry, Consumer Packaged Goods and Restaurants Vertical, Meta
I connected with so many incredible women. Like real connections, not surface level.
Joy Ataimaire,President, Vella Bioscience
I feel inspired and empowered on the other side of it. I have a lot going on in my life right now (we all do) and this is exactly what I needed to step out of the spin cycle of my story for a couple of days and into myself and my power. Big hug to you and deep gratitude.
Maria Borromeo,CEO, Mansur Gavriel
What you created in the Berkshires this week was something genuinely rare - a room full of brilliant, accomplished women who were also completely open, supportive and fun! The speakers were extraordinary and inspiring, but honestly, the conversations between sessions, over meals, and in the margins are what I’ll carry with me longest.
Alice Russotti,Founder & Creative Director at PORTA
I left with new friendships, follow up drinks on the calendar, a potential collaboration and even an introduction to a recommended doula!
Tiffany Aprile,President and Partner at Skylight
