Seasons of Change

Seasons of Change is more than an event—it’s a celebration of womanhood, transformation, connection, and community.

Every woman experiences seasons of change. Some bring exciting new beginnings, while others challenge us to let go, heal, grow, or rediscover who we are. Whether you are navigating marriage, motherhood, divorce, career or financial changes, perimenopause or menopause, health challenges, grief, an empty nest, life after 60, entrepreneurship, or simply stepping into a new chapter, there is a place for you at Seasons of Change.

Created by Joan Minor and Kathy Smith, Seasons of Change grew from a shared need for genuine connection and support. As we began talking with other women, we discovered that women throughout our community were looking for the same thing—a village where they could be seen, heard, encouraged, informed, and supported through life's transitions.

What to Expect:

• Powerful stories from women thriving through their own seasons of change
• Engaging speakers and meaningful conversations
• Beautifully designed Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter homescapes
• Valuable community resources and information
• Shopping with local vendors and businesses
• Opportunities to connect and build genuine relationships
• Lunch and fellowship
• Giveaways and special surprises
• An uplifting fashion show celebrating confidence, beauty, and women in every season of life
