“Reset, Reflect, and Heal”— is the theme for FreeHer Conference 2023.
This year’s conference will be a time to Reset, Reflect and Heal.
By prioritizing self-care, attendees can replenish their energy, strengthen their resilience, and sustain their commitment to the movement. Taking time to heal allows us to process our experiences, address our emotional needs, and cultivate a sense of well-being. Through this event rooted in self-care, we can continue to show up fully, nurture empathy, and remain effective agents of change.
Healing lies at the heart of this year’s FreeHer Conference, with dedicated sessions incorporating various therapeutic practices, mindfulness techniques, and trauma-informed workshops. Participants will have the opportunity to explore their own experiences and emotions, fostering resilience and empowerment as they confront the challenges posed by oppressive systems.
In addition, there are networking events, offering attendees opportunities to reconnect with peers, share best practices, and learn in practical workshops and intimate general sessions, live entertainment, and more!
