On day one of the Fifth Annual Women of Power Summit, hundreds of women converged on La Quinta Resort in Southern California to network, shop, and honor five amazing women at the Legacy Awards dinner. In between, they reconnected with friends, took the steps to establish new relationships, and enjoyed the warming and energizing rays of the sun.
