Welcome to RISE: North Carolina’s Premier Embodied Business Summit

A New Era of Feminine Leadership Awaits

Our goal at Rise is to put the Feminine in Leadership, the Body in Business, and the Purpose in the Paycheck.

Why RISE: Chapel Hill?

RISE is more than just an event - it’s a transformational journey!
RISE is a 2-day professional retreat designed specifically for women who are ready to "level up" their lives. Our summit is not just about learning—it’s about transformation. Through a series of workshops, networking opportunities, and wellness activities, we focus on creating success, building connections, and fostering resiliency in both personal and professional lives.

A unique conference specifically for women.
Most women’s summits and conferences do not include the body in business! This will be a unique leadership summit in that it includes all women at all stages of life, personal and professional development. You will leave with concrete skills that you can use at home, in the community and in the workplace.

Affordable Leadership Training
Unlike many leadership programs that cost thousands of dollars, RISE is committed to being an accessible and affordable option for women and their teams. We believe that professional development should be within reach for all, not just a select few.

For Individuals and Teams
RISE is an exceptional opportunity for women leaders, entrepreneurs, and their teams to invest in their professional growth while also caring for their collective well-being. Whether you are leading a team or looking to enhance your own leadership skills, this summit offers invaluable experiences and connections that will resonate long after the event is over.

What Is Purpose Of The Summit?

Embodied Leadership is the new way of doing business and fostering leadership in our communities. Embodiment refers to the idea of fully inhabiting the fullest expression of ourselves in the world. When we are embodied, we are able to show up fully in our work and our lives, and tap into our true potential as individuals.

For entrepreneurs and leaders, embodiment is crucial for creating a business and a life that feels authentic and aligned with our values and purpose. When we are connected to our true selves we have better health outcomes, decrease in stress and burnout and overall happier in our relationships.

With 89% of people in the workforce experiencing some level of burnout in the last month, addressing mental & physical health in the workplace and community has become inescapable. Our workforce is evolving and in need of change. Our companies and communities are looking to gather and work in ways that respect the mind body connection. We know that women are more negatively impacted by the effects of chronic stress and burnout than men. Giving women concrete skills on how to elevate their voice, harness their power and increase their skill set will have a positive impact on our local community and businesses.

We focus on three key areas aimed at empowering women through knowledge and actionable insights.

Wealth:
To bridge the significant wealth and wage gaps affecting women (and women of color), we focus on imparting best financial practices and equipping attendees with tools for financial success. We will explore best financial practices, provide tools for financial success and explore ways your community or business can help women and women of color decrease our current wage gap.

Wellness:
Our wellness series features expert speakers who introduce practices that enhance personal and professional well-being. We will address specific wellness needs of women and their wellbeing.

Wisdom:
We need to shift our mindset around age and longevity. With expanded workforce needs we need to increase our resiliency and shift paradigms to be successful. With our WISDOM workshop series we will address career longevity, learn from women in leadership and best practices learned throughout successful careers as well as engage in to practices that bring us in to the innate wisdom of our bodies.

Rise is crafted to inspire action and foster a supportive network that propels all women towards greater equity and success.
