ILLUMINATING WOMEN CONFERENCE 2020
|
|
|
|
VIRTUAL
September 25th, 26th, 29th,
October 1st & 3rd
Due to the coronavirus and for the safety of our conference attendees, we postponed our conference that originally was planned for early March and are moving it 100% online. Now more than ever, women hunger for their sister community for support, encouragement, and empowerment for illuminating our personal and professional success. By taking our conference online, we now are able to positively impact the lives of more women worldwide while adding more valuable content, meeting many new women, and making more friends. We are offering many convenient ways to attend the conference, be a sponsor, or a vendor. As we all have needed to pivot and change, adjusting to new ways of connecting for business or employment, this conference will provide the perfect spark for your success.
Thank you,
Jill Nichols-Hicks

Kelly McNeils
Showing Up for Yourself: The Ultimate Self-Care
How well are you showing up for yourself? That is—not only are you taking good care of your body, mind, and spirit, but you’re also engaging in actions that support assertive communication and allow you to set effective boundaries!
We all know you have to put on your own oxygen mask first, but women are only now beginning to discover how important it is to take care of ourselves, first and foremost. Join Kelly McNelis, Founder of Women For One, for a spirited discussion about self-care in a time of heightened stress and intensity.
As more and more of us are being called to have hard conversations and deal with the sometimes-overwhelming world around us, we are being asked to step up with grace and courage. In order to make breakthroughs in our lives—not to mention more through conflict and fear—we must learn to communicate with radical honesty and vulnerability.
Self-care is the fuel that can keep us going when we feel tempted to give up. It’s about giving ourselves the breathing room to engage in honest, self-compassionate dialogue with ourselves, first and foremost. As Kelly will show you, self-care is about way more than mani/pedis and nights out with girlfriends. It’s an energy accounting system that lets us take a conscious temperature check of our own inner and outer resources. It also ensures that we’re constantly connected to our feelings, desires, passions, and purpose—and that we’re able to communicate clearly and assertively, without being triggered.
Kelly won’t try to define self-care for you, but she will give you the tools to define it for yourself and bring it to life in your thoughts, behaviors, and actions.

SARRI GILMAN - Charter Member
TRANSFORM YOUR BOUNDARIES
As a psychotherapist, I study how we heal and listen to our souls. I have seen miracles and hope return when people have given up. Though my private practice is often full, I do offer a few workshops each year that anyone can attend.
As a former Director of non-profit organizations for 20 years, I have turned my attention to how we support healthcare and human service providers doing the heavy-hearted work in our communities. I speak at conferences and organizations where I can reach healthcare and human service providers on Self-care, Compassion, Boundaries, and Overwhelm Recovery. I had to do lots of work on myself to earn the right to stand up for those words. I am also an author on these topics.
Mentoring the next generation of healers and leaders is crucial to carry the work forward. Each year I do private leadership development coaching 1-1 for a small number of human service and healthcare executives.
I am in private practice on Whidbey Island, a dreamy place – where I have lived and raised a family for 33 years. Whidbey Institute hosts my annual 3-day Boundary Immersion Workshop which is open to anyone to attend.
I also teach SoulCollage® to groups who are looking for a deep way to connect their souls.
