Join Us on the Journey 

  • Hiking is a great way to connect with other women safely while discussing work-life balance, career issues, and other timely topics.

  • We'll be developing leadership and self-advocacy skills that will help you gain confidence, level-up, or launch your brand.

  • These types of women-led activities have been shown to help women scrutinize their leadership traits and experiences. They also reveal important information about the day-to-day environment in which they operate, which companies embrace, according to McKinsey.

What to Expect

Registration for each event is open. Space is limited and will cap at the current number of attendees allowed to gather per state, per CDC guidelines.

        When you register you will select your timeslot for the hike. The hike will be broken out into heats to ensure we can maintain social distancing. Each heat will have a capacity cap.
