The Virtual Western Women’s Summit is Almost Here

Written by

Calling all women who work or want to work in the western industry. I am so excited to share with you, that there is going to be a Western Women’s Summit held next Monday and Tuesday, May 16-17, 2022. And the best thing about this summit is that you don’t even have to leave the house to attend because it’s virtual!

Hosted by business owner and western entrepreneur, Sophia Sulzner, this summit includes 11 other speakers including Sophia. If you’re anything like me, you are always looking for an opportunity for personal and professional development, and this event checks all the boxes. The best part? It’s so affordable! Tickets start at only $240, which if you’re a business owner, is a write-off on your taxes, so why not do it? You have to hurry though because ticket sales end on Friday evening (May 13).

If you’re still looking for a reason to buy your ticket, here’s a little teaser of what you can expect at this summit. Day 1 will feature speakers Cait Luca, Kaylee McDonald, Malorie Walker, Shelby Smith, India Sparks, and Karissa Ferguson. Day 2 speakers include Lindsey West, Emily Umphenour, Markie Hageman, Elana Burtman, Molly Knuth, and rounding out the day will be Sophia Sulzner. Each of the ladies speaking brings something really special to the table.

As a woman in the western industry, I am always looking for ways to collaborate and spread the word about amazing events just like this one. Sophia and I connected via TikTok and hit it off pretty quickly. Not only is she putting on this amazing event but she also runs The Punchy Posse group on Facebook, hosts a podcast called The Western Hustle, and is also known as The Western Shop Specialist, where she offers website design services, brainstorming sessions, and much more. Listen, as a woman who also has a lot on her plate, Sophia deserves some mad respect for all she is doing in our industry. Make sure to check her on social and if you haven’t made your way to getting your Western Women’s Summit ticket, make sure to do that now before ticket sales stop on Friday.
