“Every aspect of the Unconference offered something meaningful to me personally or professionally. I left with ideas I will carry forward, things I want to approach differently, and, perhaps most importantly, a renewed sense of possibility.”
Carrie Morgridge envisioned a different kind of gathering for women: one built around genuine connection, shared experiences, and the belief that more is possible when women come together without competition.
The UnConference is that vision in action. It’s an invitation-only gathering of women from the nonprofit and business sectors who are ready to think differently about what’s next.
Designed to create space beyond the demands of everyday life, the UnConference brings together women with different experiences, perspectives, and ways of learning. Here, there is room to ask bigger questions, challenge old assumptions, share what has been learned, and imagine what might be possible.
No one competes for the room, no one needs to have all the answers, and no one is expected to be anything other than themselves.
Just time, space, and a community of women who believe more is possible when ideas are shared.
Why the UnConference?
The UnConference creates space to step away from the daily demands to gain perspective and connect with other women who bring different experiences and ideas.
What makes it different?
Connection over competition. A space where women can share openly, learn, explore, and check their egos at the door.
Room to just be. Time to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with what matters, without the pressure to always be doing more.
Relationships that last. The goal is to leave with three to five women you can call for honest advice or mentorship and rely on anytime.
