You’ll leave with new connections, mixology inspiration, and a deeper understanding of the importance of cross-generational networking.
This event reflects JWI’s pillar of Women’s Leadership and serves as a powerful reminder that joy and connection are essential, especially for women navigating careers, caregiving, and community engagement. Making space to show up for ourselves—and for one another—is both meaningful self-care and a bold expression of collective strength.
