In partnership with Virginia Tech Roanoke Center
We're inspiring women to rise above the clouds of insecurity and unease caused by the pandemic, redeem their power, restore hope and reap the tools and information they can apply to their life and work.
Join The Roanoker Magazine’s Inaugural Women’s Conference: RECLAIM, as we join the world for Women’s History Month, in Celebrating the Women Who Tell Our Stories. We invite you to join us for a day of restoration, hope, empowerment and reconnection with your peers, colleagues and the community.
Attendees will enjoy a full day of powerful speakers, workshops and connection. We will venture to The Rooftop at Center in the Square for a lunch panel featuring placemakers and community builders providing you a chance to celebrate and learn about women who are making Roanoke a special place to live.
There is limited space at our venue for this event and we expect it to sell out. Please register as soon as you know you would like to attend!

Presenters:
Lindsay McKinnon, Trauma Informed Somatic Healing & Resiliency Coach, CEO & Visionary at Soul Body Connect — Resiliency Unleashed: Embracing, Creating and Reclaiming Life on Our Terms
Order, Disorder, Re-Order – in that sequence. Due to the pandemic and God knows what else each individual has been navigating, we must be creative inside the chaos and bring order back to our lives and systems. We are in a place of re-learning who we are, with whom and what we identify, and re-evaluating the kinds of support systems we need now, in order to carry us into the future. She will teach the audience a few somatic tools they can apply immediately to regulate their nervous systems and create the mindset needed in order to learn new things throughout the day from the leaders who will be speaking, sharing through discussion panels, or teaching workshops that help them create more meaning.
