ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

Our conference is for European Jewish women  age 30+

We will meet to connect, to be inspired, to touch our deepest inner soul, to learn together and from one another.

We combine simplicity and depth, laughter and tears, luxury and fun, questioning, thinking, but mainly stretching our horizon, pushing up our sky as high as it gets.

This special conference is a partnership with the very welcoming Jewish community of Lisbon together with various Jewish global organizations.

During the conference we will tour and get to know the Jewish community of Portugal.

Glatt Kosher meals will be provided at the Altis 5-star hotel.

He's published 3 bestseller books and hosts TV shows that are successful in both countries. He brings his culinary creations to special events and workshops all over the world.
