October 26th, 2009 - Women's Health Summit





"The Women's Health Summit is a meaningful, educational, and fun conference for women of all ages. It is meant to encourage you to take a proactive role in your own health and learn new strategies for healthier living. Women are educated, motivated and rejuvenated!"
North Dakota First Lady Mikey L. Hoeven.
Wellness and health education booths are set up for women to visit and gain knowledge in between sessions. I joined the Go Red booth to encouraging women to sign up for Go Red and LOVE YOUR HEART! Our 3 keynote speakers were amazing, funny and heartwarming. We were privileged to be among Dru Sjodin's mother who spoke about losing Dru and struggling to heal from this loss. Her goal now is to bring awareness to everyone to decrease the number of countless victims of violence. Tracey Conway, an award winning actress, was taping a television show when she literally dropped dead in her 30's from Cardiac Arrest. She survived and is motivating women in a poignant laugh-out-loud presentation to start taking their health seriously. Karyn Ruth White, a comedian, did not leave a dry eye in the house...hilarious does not even come close. Karyn wants women to realize the benefits of laughter and humor in their life and to begin to live a laughter-rich life! Mikey Hoeven was right - we were educated, motivated and rejuvenated!
