The ConnectHER Weekend Retreat is set to transform women's personal and professional landscapes during its upcoming event in Chicago from April 25-27, 2025. Hosted at the Royal Sonesta Chicago River North, the retreat will unite high-achieving women under the theme "Connection Is Currency: What's Your Net Worth?"
Founded by Dr. Tammy C. Barnett, the retreat goes beyond a traditional conference by creating a dynamic environment for networking, personal development, and community building. This year's event features an impressive lineup of speakers from diverse industries, including entrepreneurs, psychologists, and business leaders who will share insights on emotional well-being, career guidance, and entrepreneurship.
A key highlight of the retreat is a Financial Literacy Workshop sponsored by Michigan State University Federal Credit Union, aligning with Financial Literacy Month. The weekend will include unique experiences such as a VIP Welcome Cruise and a Sneaker Ball, providing multiple opportunities for meaningful connections.
With speakers like Makeda Smith, Toni S. Brown, and Tori J. Andrews, attendees can expect thought-provoking discussions that emphasize authenticity, purpose, and personal growth. The retreat's mission centers on empowering women to not just survive, but thrive by leveraging the strength of their professional and personal networks.
By bringing together women from various backgrounds and industries, ConnectHER Weekend Retreat demonstrates the transformative potential of collaborative learning and mutual support. The event represents a significant platform for women to expand their perspectives, build confidence, and create lasting professional relationships.
