The Un-Conference
Concurrent to the scheduled talks at the conference, founders, hosts, and speakers will gather in rooms throughout the venue to continue discussions about specific topics and issues most important to them. These “unconference” spaces are designed for attendees to reflect, plan, process, and talk about their most important mothering challenges in an informal, supportive, and educative context.
Coffee, MomTalks journals, and snacks will be available. Like the mom bench at your favorite playground. But with experts.
