Becoming AGELESS In Seattle

"It's not a Conference ... It's a Connection!"

We’re not here to lecture you.

We’re here to light you up.

September 20, 2025 9:00 AM - 7:30 PM

The Collective, Downtown Seattle

We gather bold, fearless women who are done playing small - and ready to reclaim and enhance their Power, their Voice, and their radiant Confidence.

Welcome to AGELESS in Seattle – the first stop on a nationwide journey redefining what it means to Become Ageless in Mind, Body and Spirit. This is where confidence meets community, and transformation begins with connection.

Who is AGELESS For?

It’s for YOU. We meet you where you are.

You may be the woman who’s been busy doing all the things for everyone else and is finally ready to do something radical: choose yourself. Or, you might be incredibly accomplished but knows you’re meant for more and want to take your life to the next level.

You’re in your 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond … no longer shrinking, silencing, or second-guessing.

You are bold, wise, curious, and maybe just a little scared. You’re ready to come home to who you truly are.

What Makes AGELESS Different?

It’s not about selfies. It’s about self-worth.

It’s not about networking. It’s about Sisterhood.

It’s not about perfection. It’s about realness, rawness, and radical confidence.

We are a judgment-free, mean-girl-free zone where you can come exactly as you are and leave as the woman you were always meant to be.

What’s The Experience?

Powerful panels and heart-opening conversations led by fierce, fabulous women who’ve walked through fire … and came out shining. These are stories that will crack you open and stir your soul.

From mastering your Voice to redefining your presence, our Masterclass isn’t about a surface-level glow-up. It’s about owning your space, stepping into your power, and learning to Project Confidence in every aspect and area of your life.
