Yesterday was a remarkable start to the Multifamily Women® Summit. We started early with a bus trip to The Lofts at Westgate, where we had time to connect, network, and share mimosas. The bus rides felt like field trips—full of energy and excitement.
After a break at the hotel, we welcomed everyone with a Multifamily Women® swag bag, showcasing the creative inspiration from our sponsor partners who have made this experience so special. These brands support not only this event but the year-round impact and growth of Multifamily Women®.
Then, it was time for the big show. Lorena Fikes and Lauren Stinson opened the event together, setting the stage for the day. We kicked things off with a 5-year celebration video, followed by Carrie Antrim taking the stage.
Wow, the energy in that room!
Carrie reflected on the community that has shaped our growth over the past 5 years, sharing stories of Olympic mindsets and the powerful messages behind our new friendship bracelets.
She invited the audience to reflect on last year’s summit, with inspiring contributions from Nicole Hassannia, Dr. Cari Skrdla, Rachael Kish, CAM, CAPS, Sarah Saglam, and Marcia Bollinger. Their words of wisdom were mini keynotes that inspired us to think bigger and better about our future.
Then, the keynotes began.
We opened with Laura Lyng on Overcoming Limitations and Attracting Success in Multifamily. Next, Tina West, CPM delivered a powerful keynote on The Gift of Grit and Resilience in Building a Legacy. And finally, Laura Khouri shared her journey of Climbing the Ladder of Success in 4-Inch Heels.
These talks had us filling our journals with notes and reflections, each one sparking deeper thoughts about our potential.
Lauren Stinson then unveiled her incredible vision for 2025—expanding Multifamily Women® to 1,000 attendees next year for even greater industry impact. She also made an offer too good to pass up, giving us the chance to invest in our teams for next year’s event.
As the Downtown Avenue live band set up, we enjoyed a culinary experience paired with a delightful surprise: a visit from alpacas that stole the show with unforgettable photos!
We heard from Rosevelt Rawls, who sang for us and told us about her mission to end child abuse.
We connected, formed friendships, ate, drank, learned, laughed, and even danced.
What a day, filled with food, drinks, partnerships, friendships, education, inspiration, laughter, and music!
