2020 Conference Information and Registration

About The Conference WOCIP is excited to announce that our 4th Annual Conference will be a fully virtual online experience! Join us November 5-8 on our engaging and interactive virtual platform to experience "The Greatest Show - Educate, Empower, Elevate."

Pre-Conference - “Best-Self Bootcamp”

Pre-Conference – “Best-Self Bootcamp”

The objective of our pre-conference Bootcamp is to identify and build good habitual health and wellness practices to sup-port your personal motivation and work ethic. COVID-19 has changed so much about the way we do business and for many it has also unwittingly changed how we show up to work.

WOCIP recognizes the importance of bringing the best ver-sion of you to the table whether it’s happening virtually or in-person. In order to do the work of personal development it is important to start with a fresh perspective which can be achieved by clearing out old energy and participating in activities that promote mental, physical and emotional rejuvenation.

Join us for a 28-day guided detox with Metra Lundy, author of “The Detox Life”. The final week of the detox, October 26 through October 31, will be filled with virtual workshops and workouts as we break through these silent barriers in prepara-tion for the 4th annual WOCIP Conference: The Greatest Show.

You must be registered for the conference to attend the bootcamp. Register no later than October 1 to receive the WOCIP bootcamp swag box.
