Women At Woodstock is not your typical conference or networking event, nor is it a “kumbaya” retreat without substance. It’s a unique combination of the best aspects of a conference, a retreat, and a bonding experience for women who've arrived at a new stage of life. They learn new tools and establish new connections that can open doors, even alter lives.
