Winter is often a season of reflection—cherishing the past year’s gifts and embracing hope for what’s ahead. As you set your 2025 goals, ask: What will I nourish in the new year? ?? Time and time again we've see that the best ROI often comes from investing in yourself when you are a business owner. Thats why we want to invite you to this year’s Women’s Business Summit in Medora where you will gain hands-on business training and build meaningful connections with women who get it. Here’s what Sandi Luck, owner of Bully Brew Coffee, had to say about what she gained from the Summit: "These events allow me to meet other women in business who I can relate to. It allows me to feel as though I am not the only one dealing with some of the struggles. These connections allow me to give back and share my expertise and mentor as others have done for me." We hope you will fill your new year with connection, growth, and inspiration—grab your ticket to Summit today! ??? ndwbc.com/summit
