Women Pillars of Success Conference

A Day of Celebration, Inspiration & Community Connection

Join us for a heartfelt and empowering evening dedicated to honoring the strong, resilient, and inspiring women who are making a difference in our communities. Women of Success is more than just an event—it’s a movement to uplift, celebrate, and connect the women who lead with purpose, passion, and courage.

This special night will spotlight women from all walks of life who are making a meaningful impact in business, service, and leadership. It’s a chance to gather together, share stories, and remind one another that we are never alone in our journeys.

In addition to celebrating our honorees, attendees will have the opportunity to enjoy interactive shopping with local women-owned and small businesses from across Idaho and the Treasure Valley. Come ready to support our local entrepreneurs, discover unique products, and connect with the heart of our community.

✨ Celebrate the power of women
✨ Build genuine connections
✨ Get inspired by stories of strength and leadership
✨ Support local small businesses through a vibrant vendor marketplace
✨ Leave with a full heart—and maybe a full shopping bag too!

Let’s rise together, support one another, and continue creating spaces where women thrive.
Because when women succeed, we all succeed!

Keynote Speaker

Sandra Lilia Velasquez

       is the Chicana founder of Nopalera, a modern Mexican beauty & lifetstyle brand. Velasquez launched Nopalera in the middle of the pandemic from her Brooklyn apartment with no outside funding or savings while working three jobs and raising her daughter. Today, the brand can be found in Nordstrom, Credo, Kohl’s and over 400 boutiques nationwide.

She is the winner of five grants and has completed six accelerators including the Morgan Stanley Inclusive Ventures Lab and the Stanford Latino Business Accelerator. She was one of nine finalists selected globally for the inaugural Business of Beauty Global Awards hosted by the Business of Fashion. In January 2023 she appeared on Shark Tank Season 14 where she infamously turned down two offers by standing in her worth.

Sandra is the host of The Nopalera Podcast and a frequent keynote speaker. Prior to launching Nopalera, Velasquez was the leader of the Latin Alternative band Pistolera, which toured internationally, released three studio albums, and had its music featured on hit TV shows like Breaking Bad, Sons of Anarchy, and NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert.
