I was reading an article in Fast Company that referenced a site I haven’t been on before – Upcoming.org

Great site to find out what’s going on in any location you desire. I found the Women’s Wellness Forum event (see info. below) coming up in San Francisco on June 2, put on by Invent Your Future and numerous other organizations as noted.

Invent Your Future “is a professional development company that is accelerating the success of the next generation of corporate and entrepreneurial women leaders.” They have a great site with lots going on – from online events to partnering events, conferences and loads more.

Here’s information on the Women’s Wellness Forum from their site:

DISCOVER THE CONNECTION BETWEEN YOUR HEALTH AND YOUR SUCCESS

o Learn how to keep you and your team healthy and productive

o Foolproof ways to reduce stress at work

o Life-changing strategies to maximize brain power

Why do we need a Forum on Women’s Workforce Wellness?

o More days are lost annually for sick leave in the US than in any other country;

o “Job/career” has replaced “finances” as the leading cause of stress for most people

o The US spends more than $2 trillion on health care annually and those costs will continue to accelerate if we don’t change
the way we take care of ourselves;

o More companies are getting serious about improving the health of their workers;

o Wellness programs have measurable success, cost savings and documented outcomes;

o Women are the catalysts for disseminating healthcare information in their offices, homes and communities;
