ROTHSCHILD, WI (WSAU) -- Over 600 women will gather Tuesday morning at the Central Wisconsin Convention and Expo Center in Rothschild for the 2019 Women's Leadership Conference sponsored by the Wausau Region Chamber of Commerce.

Heather Summers Valiska helped organize this year's event for the Chamber, she says the focus will be on "controlling what you can control," with keynote speaker Tim Knight of Focus 3.

"Lots of things are going to happen to us, but how we react to them is going to impact our outcomes," she said. "He's going to go through a lot of those basic skills that we can implement into our lives to make them better not only personally but career-wise."

Knight's message will take up most of the day, and Summers Valiska says it's one that will likely make an immediate impact on those attending. "I saw Tim in person back in October, and I learned more from hearing him speak than a lot of other keynotes. I'm hoping that as women leave here that they can implement these strategies into their lives right away."

The Women's Leadership Conference begins at 8:30 Tuesday morning and runs until 4. Summers Valiska says the event is sold out.
