Dr. Laurie Santos is the keynote speaker at UCHealth’s signature women’s health event

Aurora, Colo. (March 29, 2024) - On Saturday, April 6 from 8 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. nearly 600 women will gather at the Stockyards Event Center for UCHealth’s annual wellness event, evrē (pronounced “every”). 

The keynote speaker for this year’s event is Dr. Laurie Santos, Yale professor, scientist and host of “The Happiness Lab” podcast and creator of “The Science of Well-Being” offered through Coursera. Dr. Santos’ goal is to help teach others to live happier lives through science-back techniques. 

In its sixth year, evrē is an event that empowers women to connect and support each other through workshops, fitness classes, health screenings, interactive panels, shopping and more. UCHealth experts will be on-hand to answer questions and a variety of wellness experiences are awaiting event participants. 

Highlights this year include the opportunity to participate in Pilates, body combat and yoga classes, functional movement screenings, stretch lab and roll recovery sessions. Yogifit will be onsite to demo their smart mats and rings and various vendors will offer the latest in fashion, health and fitness trends. 

“The goal of evrē is to create a space where participants can spend the morning focused on self-care and connect with other like-minded women,” said Christina Hixson, UCHealth’s senior director of partnerships. “This year we are thrilled to welcome Dr. Santos, who will share her insights on 10 ways to use science-backed techniques to live happier and healthier lives.” 

evrē is part of Ready. Set. CO, a statewide challenge aimed at making Colorado the healthiest state in the nation and getting Coloradoans back to the summit of good health.
