Women in Focus
A Series for Life’s Next Steps
Ottawa, ON
In your 20s and 30s, life throws a lot your way—career moves, financial decisions, relationships, and most importantly, figuring out how to care for yourself. The internet is full of advice, but it’s overwhelming to sift through what’s useful, trustworthy, and actually fits your life.
Women in Focus is here to cut through the noise. This life skills series is a space for real conversations with experts and women living with similar questions you’ve thought about but haven’t had the time, tools, or support to tackle.
Complimentary community events hosted in venues across Ottawa through 2025.
