4th Annual

Saturday, March 8th, 2025 from 9am - 3:30pm CST

Northern Illinois University, Naperville Campus

After Party Celebration at Wyckwood House in Aurora from 5-8pm

The HER Story Conference is not just another event; it is a celebration of women's resilience, a platform for authentic conversations, and a launchpad for new beginnings. This year's conference delves into the intersection of mental health, career, and all the in-between moments that shape a woman's journey.

Our distinguished lineup of speakers and panelists will explore real-life women's issues and address topics often overlooked in conventional forums. From navigating financial literacy to building thriving communities, from the multifaceted journey of motherhood to breaking free from imposter syndrome, and from the challenges of mental health to career transitions, we cover it all.

Whether you're seeking new connections, searching for inspiration, or looking to immerse yourself in a community of like-minded women, the HER Story Conference is where you’ll find your tribe. Attendees will leave with renewed confidence, valuable insights, and a sense of belonging to a supportive network ready to empower them to take on the next chapter of their journey.

Come be a part of HER Story, where every woman's voice is heard, every experience is valued, and every story matters. Together, let's build a future where women not only survive but thrive.
