Hear From Our Attendees
This powerful event offered a vision for social change and activism that I’ve been speaking about for years.

The Summit gave me an opportunity to unplug and gather global expertise and strength in my advocacy. I had genuine time to reflect on my goals (both personal and professional) …..and recalibrate the legacy I want to leave in Chicago and across the globe.

It was an honor and pleasure to be in circle, community, interconnection, and big love!
