meeting the Please join us from June 24 - 26 at the extraordinarily beautiful St. Regis Deer Valley in Park City, Utah,
for the 2021 USLAW NETWORK Women’s Connection. This event brings together female legal decision-
makers from an array of industries, specialties, and regions to engage in two days of timely interactive
sessions, networking opportunities, and special events. The program is packed with opportunities to
2 0 0 1 - 2 0 2 1 make new and strengthen existing connections, all with Park City as the backdrop.
For many of us, this will be the first in-person event in more than a year. And we are ready! Please know that while the setting will be
magnificent, the programming timely and relevant, and the atmosphere fun and engaging, we also have been working with the hotel
on COVID safety procedures and are monitoring CDC and state/local guidelines as well. The combined health, safety, and well-being
of all attendees is our primary focus during this program. We have limited the capacity of this year’s event to no more than 120 to
ensure that we meet all social distancing requirements and provide our attendees a comfortable and enjoyable setting.
We all need a level of commitment, goal setting, skills, planning, collaboration, and determination to succeed in our respective
careers. And after this past year living through a pandemic, everyone needs an extra dose of flexibility, patience, and creativity to
navigate the ever-changing work/ home-life centered around virtual work and virtual learning and so much more. The 2021 USLAW
Women’s Connection aims to assist you in all these critical components.
We are excited to welcome Gretchen Rubin, author of the blockbuster New York Times bestsellers The Four Tendencies, Better Than
Before, and The Happiness Project. Additionally, we will host several small-group roundtable discussions on both women’s and legal
issues that everyone will benefit from and are sure to provide many take aways.
As USLAW celebrates its 20th anniversary, we certainly hope you can be a part of it and join us in June in Park City. See you there!

Meet Gretchen Rubin
KEYNOTE
SPEAKER
FRIDAY, JUNE 25
1:15 PM – 2:30 PM
Gretchen Rubin is one of today’s most influential and thought-provoking observers
of happiness and human nature. She is known for her ability to distill and convey
complex ideas with humor and clarity, in a way that is accessible to a wide audience.
Gretchen is the author of many books, including the blockbuster New York Times
bestsellers The Four Tendencies, Better Than Before, and The Happiness Project. She
has an enormous readership, both in print and online, and her books have sold almost
three million copies worldwide, in more than thirty languages. (The Happiness Project
spent two years on the bestseller list.) On her top-ranking, award-winning podcast
“Happier with Gretchen Rubin,” she discusses happiness and good habits with her
sister Elizabeth Craft. Gretchen has been interviewed by Oprah, eaten dinner with
Daniel Kahneman, walked arm-in-arm with the Dalai Lama, had her work written up
in a medical journal, and been an answer on the game show Jeopardy! She started her
career in law and was clerking for Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor when
she realized she wanted to be a writer.
Raised in Kansas City, Gretchen lives in New York City with her husband;
they have two daughters (a college freshman and a seventh grader). Gretchen will be
joining us virtually from her home in New York City.
