October Coffee Talk | Tuesday, October 13, 2026
8:00 am | 718 Venue

Topic: Reaffirming Your Goals
Sustaining meaningful goals requires more than vision—it demands intentional strategy, resilience, and reflection. We’ll explore the essential tools for establishing and protecting your priorities, understanding the social and political capital that can accelerate or hinder progress, identifying the roots of resistance before they become roadblocks, and recognizing the power of celebrating both small milestones and transformational victories along the journey. This session will be led by Dr. Sarah Calveric, Superintendent of Caroline County Public Schools.

Why Attend the Women’s Leadership Colloquium?

Sometimes taking a full day away from your task list can feel impossible. But investing in your own growth can make a lasting difference.

As Rebecca Purdy, Executive Director of Central Rappahannock Regional Library, puts it:

“It can feel hard to take a day out of the office, but no matter how long my task list is I never regret attending this event. I always learn so much that helps me think deeply and grow as a leader, and I always connect with someone I didn’t know before!”

For Rebecca, the Women’s Leadership Colloquium is also about the connections made throughout the day:

“The Colloquium provides an invaluable opportunity for connection with other women leaders in our community.”

Make time for your growth, learning, and connection on November 5 at the 32nd Annual Women’s Leadership Colloquium.

Why Attend the Women’s Leadership Colloquium?

Leadership growth doesn’t have to wait for a new title or a new position. Wherever you are in your career, there’s always an opportunity to learn, connect, and grow.

As Stephanie Lyles, Director of Marketing Outreach at Topside Federal Credit Union, puts it:

“To grow as a leader, no matter what position you are currently at.”

And that growth happens alongside other women who bring different experiences, perspectives, and stories to the table.

Stephanie describes the Women’s Leadership Colloquium as:

“Women from all walks of life, all stages of their careers, coming together to empower each other.”

Join us November 5 for a full day of connection, learning, and inspiration at the 32nd Annual Women’s Leadership Colloquium.
