Last week we celebrated the amazing women who make our community so special! 350 incredible women in one room, sharing stories, making connections, celebrating successes, and inspiring one another.
Our 2026 Women You Should Know event was filled with laughter, heartfelt moments, honest conversations, and some pretty powerful reminders about believing in ourselves, chasing our dreams, and cheering each other on!
And judging by all the wonderful posts and messages we've seen since the event, the inspiration didn't end when the afternoon was over! 💗
A HUGE thank you to our Presenting Partner, Nutritional Healing, LLC, for helping make this special day possible and to our incredible keynote speaker, Andrea Boehlke, for sharing her energy, humor, and inspiring perspective!
We are also so grateful to panelists:
▪️Kimberly Baehman, Nutritional Healing
▪️Amanda Kroener, Carbliss
▪️Dr. Tina Sauerhammer, Wisconsin Institute of Plastic Surgery
▪️Michelle Dejno, O'Connor Connective
We appreciate them for sharing their experiences, wisdom, and honest conversations. And to Hayley Tenpas with Woodward Community Media for leading the day's conversation that touched on overcoming imposter syndrome and building confidence to embracing opportunities and recognizing our own potential, these women gave us so much to think about and take with us!
Our Women-Owned Business Raffle was once again a highlight of the afternoon, thank you to Unison Credit Union for giving us the opportunity to shine a spotlight on 15 amazing women-owned businesses and the incredible women behind them.
And a very special congratulations to Kelly Webster of Tommy G’s, the recipient of our $2,500 Dream Big Award, made possible by TDS! We can't wait to see Kelly bring her dreams for her business to life!
Here's to women supporting women, celebrating each other's successes, dreaming BIG, and reminding one another that we all belong in the room!
