Following the success of the 2025 Ascension Mind-Body Summit, Ascension returns in 2026 as an expanded, invitation-only, two-day gathering kicking off the White House Correspondents’ Dinner weekend.

Big Ideas,
Real Impact.

Igniting national conversations across medicine, media, science, and policy.

Ascension advances a cross-sector dialogue grounded in science and culture—bringing together leaders across medicine, research, business, government, media, and the wellness ecosystem to explore longevity, integrative health,
and the brain–gut connection.
The Summit spotlights the breakthroughs, tools, and perspectives shaping how we
live well and age well.

This invitation-only event brings together leaders from media, government, business, and culture during the lead-up to one of Washington, D.C.’s most high-profile weekends, amplifying critical conversations with national and international reach.

  • “Ascension 2025, really demonstrated what is possible when mission-aligned women gather together to talk about topics that are meaningful for our health, and the health of those we love. Topics that were once taboo (ahem, menopause and brain health) are now out in the open, so we can be empowered and work together to live longer, richer, and more fulfilling lives.”
