MESSAGE FROM THE CONFERENCE DIRECTOR

Rachael "Rae" Russell

Empowering the Next Generation

Dear Young Women and Esteemed Parents/Guardians,

I am filled with excitement and hope as I reach out to you about the upcoming Young Women's Conference. As a mother to a 16-year-old daughter, I intimately understand the unique challenges and opportunities that young women face in today’s world. I’ve witnessed the pressures of adolescence, the complexities of social dynamics, and the constant need to adapt in an ever-changing landscape.

This conference is deeply personal to me. It’s not just another event, but rather a mission I am passionate about. I firmly believe in the boundless potential of every young woman in our San Diego community. This conference is designed to offer a space where young women can find the tools, resources, and inspiration to thrive in every aspect of life.

For our young women, this conference will offer:

Engaging Workshops: Gain hands-on experience in topics like entrepreneurship, financial literacy, career exploration, and self-esteem building. These sessions are crafted to provide practical skills and real-world knowledge to help you succeed.
Inspiring Speakers: Hear from remarkable women who have faced adversity and achieved incredible success. Their stories will highlight the importance of resilience, determination, and the power of perseverance.
A Supportive Network: Build connections with other young women who share similar experiences and goals. Together, we’ll create a community where you can form lasting friendships and support one another.

For our parents and guardians, we recognize how vital your role is in shaping the lives of these young women. This conference offers you the opportunity to:

Reinforce the Skills Your Daughters Are Developing: Learn about the practical tools and strategies your daughters are gaining through the conference workshops.
Understand the Challenges Young Women Face Today: Gain deeper insight into the pressures and issues that impact your daughters' lives and how to best support them.
Connect with Like-minded Parents/Guardians: Share your experiences and ideas with others who are equally committed to empowering the next generation of women.

Our goal is to foster a safe, inclusive, and inspiring environment where young women can explore their potential, build confidence, and embark on a journey of self-discovery. This conference is just the beginning of what promises to be an extraordinary adventure.

I can’t wait to have you join us. Together, we can help empower these young leaders to navigate life with strength, purpose, and unwavering confidence.

With excitement and gratitude,

Conference Director, Young Women’s Conference
