Texas Conference for Women Scores a Powerhouse Lineup Including Peloton’s Tunde Oyeneyin

Peloton instructor Tunde Oyeneyin has been confirmed as one of the first announced speakers for the Texas Conference for Women, joining a lineup that also includes actress and author Kristen Bell, TODAY show co-anchor Hoda Kotb, Olympic rugby medalist Ilona Maher, and wealth expert Codie Sanchez. The announcement was shared this week on LinkedIn by the Conferences for Women organization. The event takes place October 5, 2026, at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas, and early bird ticket registration opens April 8 at https://bit.ly/4cotVgJ.

A Strong First Wave for the Texas Conference for Women

The LinkedIn post described this reveal as the first wave of confirmed speakers for the upcoming event, signaling that more names are still to come. The Texas Conference for Women is part of the larger Conferences for Women organization, which runs annual gatherings in Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and Texas, as well as a national virtual event.

On October 5, thousands of women will come together at the Moody Center for a full day of inspiration, practical insights, and meaningful connection. It is the kind of event that draws attendees at every stage of their careers, united around leadership, professional growth, and wellbeing.

The initial speaker lineup covers a wide range of backgrounds and expertise. Kristen Bell brings her candid voice on mental health and modern life. Hoda Kotb brings decades of journalism and storytelling. Ilona Maher brings her outspoken advocacy for authenticity and confidence from the world of sports. Codie Sanchez brings her perspective on wealth creation and financial independence. Tunde Oyeneyin rounds out the group with her message of resilience, leadership, and personal growth.

Why Tunde Belongs at the Texas Conference for Women

Oyeneyin’s selection for the Texas Conference for Women fits naturally into a speaking career that has been building momentum for years. She is a New York Times bestselling author whose 2022 memoir “Speak” explored personal advocacy, resilience, and the power of voice. Her speaking topics — women’s empowerment, mental health, personal growth, diversity and inclusion, and leadership — align directly with what the Texas Conference for Women puts at the center of its programming.

She has been featured on the Today show, Good Morning America, and Access Live, and has delivered keynotes for major organizations including Google, Microsoft, Facebook, and Capital One.

Her conference resume backs it up further. She has keynoted the ICAN Women’s Leadership Conference and was honored at Black Enterprise’s Women of Power Summit with a Luminary Award alongside journalist Jemele Hill.  She also keynoted IAMPHENOM 2024 in Philadelphia, a major HR industry conference. That track record puts her squarely in the company of the high-profile names the Texas Conference for Women attracts to its stage.

It is also worth noting that Tunde is not the first Peloton instructor to appear on a Conference for Women stage. Fellow Peloton instructor Robin Arzón spoke at the virtual National Conference for Women in March 2026, bringing her message on mental strength, purpose, and growth mindset to that audience. Tunde’s Texas booking continues what is becoming a natural connection between Peloton’s instructor roster and the Conference for Women platform.

Tunde’s Growing Television Resume

Beyond the speaking circuit, Oyeneyin has been expanding her presence on screen as well. She appeared as a contestant on Deal or No Deal as far back as 2009, but her more recent work reflects a deliberately broadening career. She made her scripted acting debut in Hulu’s Life & Beth, and joined the cast of Tyler Perry’s Sistas as a series regular for Season 10 on BET, playing an entrepreneur named Madison Truitt.

She has also been featured in The New York Times, Vanity Fair, and Vogue. That combination of conference credibility, television visibility, and media coverage makes her a natural fit alongside the caliber of speakers the Texas Conference for Women has assembled at the Moody Center.

Early bird tickets for the Texas Conference for Women go on sale April 8, with the conference set for October 5, 2026, at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas.
