GREEN BAY (NBC 26) -- Women in Northeast Wisconsin came together both in-person and online Thursday at the Women's Leadership Conference in Green Bay.

Organizers say one of the goals and focuses is to have women celebrate themselves and the things that make them unique.

"The stress of today's environment is very challenging, and women are carrying that stress differently so we really think it's the best time to bring women together and support each other and understand how we can make it through this together,” said conference founder Vicki Updike.

This year's event will be held in person at 15 percent capacity inside the KI Convention center and shared virtually around the world.
