The 2026 Theme: SALT, Make Your Mark Where You Stand
This year’s theme was a reminder that you already carry value into every room you enter.
You do not have to wait for a bigger title or a different room. You can make your mark where you stand today.
Why NUU SHIFT Exists
NUU SHIFT was created for women who are asking what comes next. It brings women together for meaningful conversations about professional growth, leadership, faith and connection.
NUU Coaching is built on one belief: a single mindset shift can change how you see yourself and what you believe is possible. SHIFT is where that belief comes to life in a room full of women who understand the journey.
