The annual event brings together rebbetzins, young and old, from various communities to discuss what’s new and relevant and to hear from different guest speakers.

Initiated by Rebbetzin Goldstein almost 10 years ago, the conference fills a vital need. “To nurture leaders is so important,” she says. “To support each other has proven to be so beneficial. It’s so good to know that no matter what we may be working on in our individual communities, we’re all on the same team – we’re one big family.”

The latest conference saw four speakers sharing news, ideas and different ways of thinking. Speakers included Chief Rabbi Goldstein, renowned clinical psychologist Leonard Carr, Gary Kayle of the Money School and Rebbetzin Goldstein herself who spoke of her latest project which was still in its infancy and soon to be revealed.

“There is always a good feeling of connectedness about getting together with like-minded women facing similar challenges, including all the good, the bad and the ugly,” said one attendee, Rebbetzin Raisy Hecht. “It is ultimately very empowering and there is a sense of camaraderie among us,” she added.

 “Most of all, we had fun,” said Rebbetzin Goldstein, “There was lots of laughter! It’s such a beautiful, non-judgemental supportive network of women, all doing similar things but in our own way.”

The rebbetzins were treated to some pampering manicures to end off the morning.
