The deadline to apply for The Brio Collective 2025 is February 28th, 2025. 

What it’s all about

The Brio Collective is a transformational experience for women across the state to reflect, connect, and ignite their spirit alongside a cohort of 26 inspirational women. This six-week intensive program is facilitated through an in-person retreat followed by five consecutive weeks of virtual speakers and workshops. Brio means ‘with vigor’ or ‘spirited’ -- join Wyoming’s influential and impactful women leaders to be inspired, gain knowledge, and form meaningful relationships.

who it’s for

Women who are craving a dynamic connected community. Brio will take you out of your day to day grind and create space for you to refresh your spirit and invest in yourself. If you want to be challenged, encouraged, and inspired by other amazing women, The Brio Collective is for you.

Being a part of this Brio cohort was a life-changing experience for me. It created a safe, empowering space where I could connect with like-minded women and discover my true leadership potential.

It was so impactful for me to hear stories of how other women are navigating challenges and opportunities in their personal and professional lives. In particular, I loved hearing from other mothers as I came to realize I’m not ‘alone’ and that there are tons of kickass ladies who are also learning to manage the ‘chaos’ in their lives.
