June RPWF Luncheon: Making It Without Losing It – How to Stay Motivated in a World Where We Are Never Done
Join us Thursday, June 11, 11:30am – 1:30pm. Your luncheon fee includes Jess’ new book, a 1-year membership to her Mic Drop Club, as plenty of time to visit various sponsorship booths at the event.
Jess Ekstrom is a sought-after speaker known for her honest, energizing take on motivation, purpose, and success. Her audiences include Netflix, Under Armour, KraftHeinz, and Zappos. Now add RPWF to that list!
This isn’t just a talk. Attendees will meet a bestselling author and award-winning entrepreneur, receive a free copy of her new book (due to release May 2026), and unlock a full year of her Mic Drop Club ($199 value).
As the founder of Headbands of Hope, Jess has donated millions of headbands to children battling cancer. She is also creator of Mic Drop Workshop, which helps leaders and professionals communicate with confidence.
During the June 11 RPWF Luncheon, Jess will share insights from her new book, Making It Without Losing It: How to Stay Motivated in a World Where We Are Never Done.
With warmth, humor, and real-world stories, she challenges hustle culture and offers practical mindset shifts for ambitious women who want to grow professionally without burning out or waiting for joy to come “later”.
Attendees will walk away inspired, refreshed, and equipped with tools to stay motivated, grounded, and fulfilled, – no matter what season of leadership, career or life they’re in.
*Please register by Monday, June 8, at 5pm.
