Health Conscious Women Gather for Inaugural Women's Health & Wellness Conference

March 9, 2018

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. – Jupiter Medical Center Foundation proudly hosted its inaugural Women’s Health & Wellness Conference on Thursday, March 1 at PGA National Resort and Spa. Wellness expert and life coach Jillian Michaels was the keynote speaker, engaging with guests during an extensive Q&A session. Prior to speaking in front of the crowd of more than 150 women, Jillian spent several hours meeting one-on-one with local cancer patients to encourage them as they continue on their individual journeys.

The event kicked off on the evening of February 28 with a cocktail reception at The Spa at PGA National. Guests enjoyed mini spa services, a taste of exclusive wines produced and provided by the Hill Family Estate, and received a copy of Jillian’s book, Unlimited: A Three-Step Plan for Achieving Your Dreams.

The conference focused on women’s health and wellness, including orthopedics, sleep, stroke risk factors and prevention, heart health, cosmetic trends and stress management. Guests attended sessions on each topic, presented by some of the area’s top physicians and specialists.

Support for this year’s event comes from generous sponsors and donors, including PNC Bank, Northern Trust, Lickstein Plastic Surgery, Peggy and Rick Katz, and Diane and Jim Perrella; the Women’s Health Advisory Council members Carol Auerbach, Donna Coleman, Dory Faxon, Stephanie Flinn, Roberta Golub, Dr. Orna Hadar, Frances Herdrich, Dr. Evelyn Higgins, Peggy Katz, Barbara Kirsch, Ann Long and Judy Rifkin; and council co-chairs Diane Perrella and Janet Robson.
