The very first Live Action Women’s Summit: Return to Eden is an exciting, inspiring one-day event set for Saturday, June 21 at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Huntington Beach, California, featuring a day of powerful speakers and an exclusive shopping experience with pro-family brands (showcasing fashion, lifestyle, home decor, and more), music, and mocktails.
Because “women were created with a sacred purpose: to nurture, to protect life, and to stand boldly for truth,” the goal of the day is “to honor the dignity of women as life-givers, embrace our vital and irreplaceable role in the pro-life movement, and take up the responsibility to defend the most vulnerable.”
The Women’s Summit website describes the event as “a call to rise—to live with fierce faith, to stand against a culture that devalues life, and to protect the innocent with clarity, conviction, and courage. It is a call to embrace all that is good, true, and beautiful and to let these eternal truths strengthen our resolve and light our path in the fight for life.”

Riley Gaines
Riley Gaines, a 12-time All-American swimmer with 5 SEC titles, was a successful swimmer at University of Kentucky with ambitions to pursue a dental degree. That post-graduate ambition and her entire life was changed when she was forced to share a locker room and then compete against male Lia Thomas at the 2022 NCAA Women’s Swimming Championship. This uneven challenge for every woman competing in the pool that day was made more traumatic when the NCAA officials insisted on giving the man the trophy, despite tying Riley down to the hundredth of a second in the event. This moment became her call to action – to defend and protect America’s daughters against the woke left and their gender-denying ideology. Riley has since become a powerful advocate for conservative causes, including the sanctity of life and the protection of the most vulnerable, especially women.

When not at work, she’s wrangling her three boys with her amazing husband, trying to homestead, or spending time in nature (though, as a native Floridian, usually not in the water).
