of our attendees. This year's Indianapolis Conference will be:

THANK YOU
Thank you to everyone who donated to IWL Foundation over the holiday season. Your contribution will make a difference in 2017!
Your donations create opportunities for individual women. All of us at IWL greatly appreciate your generosity!
Our theme for January is Renew because with the start of every year, we have an opportunity to reflect on our direction, set goals and refresh our outlook for the future. It's easy to get caught in the grind of our everyday lives and one day look up in shock at how much time has passed. We challenge you right now to take some time for yourself (however much you are able). Take 15 minutes or 1 hour to yourself to practice mindfulness, fill yourself up with positive thoughts about the year ahead, and set some intention about your next steps forward.
Thank you to our 2017 Louisville Sponsors!
Thank you to our 2016 Indianapolis Sponsors!
