Women's Wellness Summit
The Summit Experience
Join us for an immersive journey of growth, connection, and empowerment.
We are dedicated to creating a sanctuary where women can peel back the layers of their journey. Beneath the Surface isn't just an event. It's a transformative experience designed to nourish your whole self. Through powerful conversations and interactive workshops we create experiences where women feel safe to have the conversations that are often swept under the surface, deepen their self-understanding, and step into lives of confidence, alignment, and self-advocacy.
Our Mission

We empower women to trust themselves and confidently advocate for their health, needs, and boundaries.

Why We Created Beneath the Surface
Lindsey Lang and Catie Whiting connected through a shared vision. Both of them have a deep desire to elevate the conversation around women’s health.
They recognized what was missing: honest dialogue around the topics too often left unspoken, and a space where women no longer had to navigate those experiences alone.
Beneath the Surface was created as that space. An environment where trusted voices speak with depth and integrity, and where women are invited to listen, learn, and reconnect with themselves on a deeper level.
At its core, it is more than a gathering. They are creating a cultivated community rooted in connection, discretion, and empowerment.
Because when conversations are brought into the light, women rise with clarity, confidence, and the power to advocate for their lives.
