How To Run The World Hydrated, Motivated and Possibly Medicated
Session Description:
Leadership isn’t all power suits and perfect plans! It’s hydration, hustle, and sometimes a little help. Let's validate the real challenges women face as leaders: mental health, aging, and staying competitive in a world that never slows down. Expect laughs, straight talk, and strategies to keep your crown straight while keeping your sanity intact.

Whole Health, Whole You is all about keeping your body, mind, and family in harmony, even when life feels chaotic. From stress and alignment to hormones and emotional wellness, this session gives you practical strategies to stay centered, energized, and grounded. Quick, honest, and empowering, it’s your reminder that caring for all of you is the key to showing up as your best self.
Session:
Leading with Purpose: A Fireside Chat with Missy Dugas
Session Description:
Join us for an engaging fireside chat featuring Missy Dugas, President of the Apartment Association of Greater Orlando, moderated by Amanda White, Vice President of the Florida Apartment Association.
In this candid conversation, Missy will share her journey to becoming AAGO President, the lessons she’s learned along the way, and how she balances her professional career with her role as a volunteer leader. Together, they’ll explore the importance of industry advocacy, the power of getting involved, and how leaders across the multifamily industry can make a lasting impact.
Expect an inspiring discussion on leadership, service, and the future of advocacy in our industry.
Closing Session:
From Surviving to Leading — On Purpose
Session Description:
You’ve hydrated. You’ve healed. Now it’s time to lead.
In this powerful and uplifting closing keynote, Chellee and Ty bring it all together,
confidence, clarity, and courageous leadership. This session challenges women to stop
shrinking, stop apologizing, and start owning their voice, value, and vision. Through real
stories, humor, and practical leadership tools, attendees will walk away ready to lead with
intention, trust themselves fully, and create impact without burnout or guilt.
This is the moment where wellness turns into wisdom and wisdom turns into leadership.
