WELCOME TO OUR 13TH SEASON (2023-2024) OF WOMEN IN MOTION!
The mission of WIM is to encourage, educate, and energize one another by learning new ideas, having new adventures, and developing new friendships along the way!
Our theme this year is…………
MAKING PEACE WITH “NATURAL AGING” (BOTH GRATEFULLY AND GRACEFULLY!)
QUESTIONS WE WILL PONDER
HAVE WE BECOME OUR PARENTS?
ARE WE THE BEST VERSION OF OURSELVES?
ARE WE EMBRACING THE YEARS AHEAD ON OUR TERMS?
WHAT ARE OUR FEARS AS WE MOVE FORWARD?
WHAT SPARK DO WE STILL HAVE TO IGNITE A FIRE?
“I’m baffled that anyone might not think women get more beautiful as they get older. Confidence comes with age, and looking beautiful comes from the confidence someone has in themselves.”
-Kate Winslet
